Georgios,

In my mind this requirement has do with the layering relationship between
QOS Signaling and Routing. In a hard-state solution once the QOS path is
created it does not unchange. The signaling protocol uses input from the
routing protocol to create this path. The path created is static. In an RSVP
style solution without route pinning we have a reactive distributed
algorithm that takes the default routing path as its input. While it should
be possible to do this style of path that is dynamically determined by the
default destination based routing, it must also be possible to build the
path once based upon an initial set of inputs.

Marco

Hi all,

Someone reminded me about IETF rules on conference calls, see the bottom 
of the mail.  So, this is not feasible at the moment, so the conference
call is off.

thanks,
John

excerpt from:

 http://www.ietf.org/IESG/STATEMENTS/Interim-meetings.txt

- WG Interim meetings and Conference Calls need approval
  of relevant ADs
- They must be announced at least 30 days in advance
- The proposed agenda must be published at least 15 days before meeting 
- They cannot be held within 30 days prior to an IETF meeting
- They must be scheduled (location/timing) with fair access for all
  WG participants
- They do not substitute for the mailing list, and any decisions are
  not final and must be approved on the WG mailing list
- Detailed minutes (including list of attendees) must be sent to
  minutes@ietf.org within 10 days of the meeting

Marco,

IMHO the problem you have shown in the example can be solved in 2 ways, and 
both are IMO out of scope for NSIS.
1) take care by introducing new links into your topology, something you 
might want to do on lightly loaded metworks anyway.

2) I think an other solution would be constraint/QoS routing, which is more 
going into the mechanis of provisioning, which is again out of scope.


Marcus

Marco,

We discussed the issue of route pinning and traffic engineering in 
Helsinki. The conclusion during the meeting was that we want to add an 
assuption saying: NSIS assumes normal/standard L3 routing

Plus we add a requirement saying that NSIS protocol should not be broken by 
networks which do non-traditional L3 routing.

Does this cover your concern? Do we really need to add that NSIS must work 
with default routing changes?

Marcus

NSIS should not be broken by networks which do non-traditional L3 routing.

I've established a mailing list, called "tist", for discussion of 
the use of RSVP (or an RSVP-like protocol) for middlebox communication.
There's an initial protocol proposal at
http://search.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-shore-tist-prot-00.txt
and I'm in the process of putting together a proposed agenda for
a BOF at the upcoming meeting.

To subscribe, send email to mailer@cisco.com with "subscribe tist"
in the body of the message.

Melinda

I think it would be fair to refer to publications which came out with
the same idea earlier.

I agree, and Melinda reminded me of TIST earlier today, I just think that
the comparison was very well done and had was very easy reading, these

I think it would be fair to refer to publications which came out with
the same idea earlier.

STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL & URGENT.

I am Mr, Joseph Edward a native of Cape Town in
South Africa and I am an Executive Accountant with
the
South Africa MINISTRY OF MINERAL RESOURCES AND ENERGY
First and foremost, I apologized using this medium to
reach you for a transaction/business of this
magnitude, but this is due to
Confidentiality and prompt access reposed on this
medium.

I have decided to seek a confidential
co-operation with you in the execution of the deal
described Hereunder for the benefit of all parties
and
hope you will keep it as a top secret because of the
nature of this transaction.

Within the Department of Mining & Natural Resources
where I work as an Executive Accountant and with the
cooperation of four other top officials, we have in
our possession as overdue payment bills totaling
Twenty! - One Million, Five Hundred Thousand U. S.
Dollars ($21,500,000.) which we want to transfer
abroad with the assistance and cooperation of a
foreign company/individual to receive the said fund
on
our behalf or a reliable foreign non-company account
to receive such funds. More so, we are handicapped in
the circumstances, as the South Africa Civil Service
Code of Conduct does not allow us to operate offshore
account hence your importance in the whole
transaction.
This amount $21.5m represents the balance of the
total
contract value executed on behalf of my Department by
a foreign contracting firm, which we the officials
over-invoiced deliberately. Though the actual
contract
cost have been paid to the original contractor,
leaving the balance in the Tune of the said amount
which we have in principles gotten approval to remit
by Key tested Telegraphic Transfer (K.T.T) to any
foreign bank account you will provide by fi! ling in an
application through the Justice Ministry here in
South Africa for the transfer of rights and privileges of
the former contractor to you.

I have the authority of my partners involved to
propose that should you be willing to assist us in
the
transaction, your share of the sum will be 25% of the
$21.5 million, 70% for us and 5% for taxation and
miscellaneous expenses. The business itself is 100%
safe, on your part provided you treat it with utmost
secrecy and confidentiality. Also your area of
specialization is not a hindrance to the successful
execution of this transaction. I have reposed my
confidence in you and hope that you will not
disappoint me. Endeavor to contact me immediately my
e-mail address whether or not you are
interested in this deal. If you are not, it will enable me scout
for another foreign partner to carry out this deal I want
to assure you that my partners and myself are in a
positio! n to make the payment of this claim possible
provided you can give us a very strong Assurance and
guarantee that our share will be secured and please
remember to treat this matter as very confidential
matter, because we will not comprehend with any form
of exposure as we are still in active Government
Service and remember once again that time is of the
essence in this business.kindly furnish us with your all your
contacts,telephone and fax number for more details.   
I wait in anticipation of your fullest co-operation.

Yours faithfully,
JOSEPH EDWARD

Hi Marco & Marcus,

I agree with Marcus that this is what we are trying to say.  Marco, is this
text OK with you?

Fragments of my master's thesis titled "Protocol Enhancements Required to 
Provide IP-based QoS in Mobile Networks" are posted on 
http://www3.sympatico.ca/ra.piechocinski/RSVP.htm
I appreciate any comments and feedback on IntServ/RSVP additions described in 
that document. Please sent your comments to maciej.piechocinski@colorado.edu.

Two aspects of QoS are considered:
-RSVP signaling of traffic characterization parameters required by wireless 
environment 
-dynamic adaptation of IntServ/RSVP to changing resource availability in the 
network


Regards,
Maciej Piechocinski

Hi all,

There has been some confusion on what the analysis document should be.  I think that
some folks think a comparison document would be applicable.

For reference, Michael Thomas did a very good analysis of RSVP and IP mobility:
http://www.watersprings.org/pub/id/draft-thomas-seamoby-rsvp-analysis-00.txt

This is quite different than an evaluation, for example see:

Criteria for Evaluating AAA Protocols for Network Access
	http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2989.txt

and

Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting: Protocol Evaluation
	http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3127.txt


In summary, the goal of the analysis work is to learn from
past failure (& successes) before doing any protocol work.  It is
not meant to help select a solution.

I am hopeful that many of the folks who when through RSVP standardization,
etc. would share with us some wisdom they learned so that we can improve
upon the work already done and not make the same mistakes.

John

  1. Introduction=20
   =20
With the current evolution toward wireless data, wireless internet, and =

wireless multimedia applications such as Voice over IP (VoIP), video=20
conferencing, and Video telephony, performance requirements similar to=20
those of existing circuit switched or voice based wireless systems are=20
essential.  Among these performance requirements are call setup time,=20
delay, reliability, and Quality of Service (QoS).  Ensuring QoS,=20
providing faster call setup time, while reducing the number of QoS=20
control messages across the network, is the subject of this note. =20
=20
This draft introduces the concept of and the architectural framework =
for=20
bi-directional  resource  reservation  signaling  protocol  for  both=20
Controlled-Load and Guaranteed QoS control services.  The existing RSVP =

signaling allows for uni-directional resource reservations only in the=20
=93send=94 direction, while the proposed signaling protocol generalizes =
the=20
process by allowing simultaneous bi-directional (=93send=94 and =
=93receive=94)=20
resource reservations on each hop.  The proposed signaling protocol is=20
most suitable for applications in which the =93Originator=94 of a =
service is=20

authentication=20
and their cost.  =20

While it is important and necessary to consider QoS from an end-to-end=20
prospective, the NSIS Working Group shall restrict the scope of its=20
activities to the transport and signaling of QoS packets in the NSIS=20
domain only.  The objective of this draft is to provide an overview of=20
the architecture and signaling within the NSIS network.=20
=20
2. Bi-Directional Signaling Protocol Model=20
=20
The underlying assumption is that the =93Originator=94 of a multimedia=20
session negotiates the media information with the =93Terminated=94 =
side. =20
Both sides have to agree on the means by which the session will be=20
carried, including the type of service (audio, video, or/and text),=20
codec information, bit rate for both directions, port numbers, etc.  In =

order to allocate resources for the negotiated session within the NSIS=20
network, the originator of the multimedia session invokes reservation=20
procedures using the proposed bi-directional signaling protocol. The =
Bi-
directional signaling protocol carries the QoS control objects that=20
specify the QoS necessary to carry the traffic in both directions.=20

2.1 Summary of Bi-directional Signaling Protocol=20
=20
  The operation of the bi-directional signaling proceeds as follows:=20
=20
     1) The =93Originator=94 provides the QoS parameters describing the =

       nature of the traffic (including the transaction Type; uni-
       directional or bi-directional).  This information is used to=20
       construct the various objects of the message format. =20
     =20
     2) The =93Originator=94 sends an  initial =93Setup=94 message to =
the=20
       =93Terminated=94 end point and waits for a response.  =20
=20
     3) The initial =93Setup=94 message follows a predetermined route =
to the=20
       =93Terminated=94 end point where it requests the assignment of=20
       resources  needed to carry the desired traffic flows. =20
=20
     4) In each hop, the router updates certain fields that indicate=20
       whether the requested resources are available and forwards the=20
       updated initial =93Setup=94 message to the next hop. =20
=20
     5) At the =93Terminated=94 end point, the updated =93Setup=94 =
message is=20
       examined.  If  the  resource  allocation  is  satisfactory,  a =20
       =93Terminated=94 end point wishing to complete the transaction=20
       replies to the =93Setup=94 message with an =93Acceptance=94 =
message.  =20
=20
     6) The =93Acceptance=94 message follows the same path that carried =
the=20
       =93Setup=94  message  from  the  =93Originator=94  end  point.   =
 The=20
       =93Acceptance=94 message carries the final resources that are =
needed=20
       to be installed in the various hops along the signaling route.=20
=20
     7) At each hop ,hop, the =93Acceptance=94 message is processed to=20
       establish the required resources and then forwarded to the next=20
       hop toward the =93Originator=94 end point.=20
=20
     8)  At the =93Originator=94 end point, the final =93Acceptance=94 =
message=20
       is processed. If successful, the =93Originator=94 end point =
replies=20
       with a =93Confirmation=94 message back to the =93Terminated=94 =
end point=20
       to acknowledge the establishment of the traffic path.=20
=20
     9) During the session, the =93Originator=94 end point is =
responsible=20
       for maintaining the resources.=20
=20
     10)If either side decides to terminate the session, a =
=93Disconnect=94=20
       message is sent by the side terminating the resources along the=20
       established route.   =20

在电子防盗探测器领域，被动红外探测器的应用非常广泛，因其价格低廉、技术性能稳定而受到广大用户和专
业人士的欢迎。但随着入侵者的反侦测技术手段的提高，从而对探头的要求也越来越高，普通被动红外探头的局限
性也越来越明显，这样，新一代的被动红外探头也应运而生。因为日本的富仕达(FUJAIMD)的探头采用了很多最新
技术，使用也较为广泛。所以，下面就结合该产品的技术特性来阐述被动红外探头的最新技术。 

被动红外探头的工作原理及特性 

被动红外探头是靠探测人体发射的红外线而进行工作的。探头收集外界的红外辐射通过聚集到红外感应源上。
红外感应源通常采用热释电元件，这种元件在接收了红外辐射温度发生变化时就会向外释放电荷，检测处理后产生
报警。 

1)这种探头是以探测人体辐射为目标的。所以辐射敏感元件对波长为10UM左右的红外辐射必须敏感。 
2)为了仅仅对人体的红外辐射敏感，在它的辐射照面通常覆盖有特殊的滤光片，使环境的干扰受到明显的控制
作用。 
3)被动红外探头，其传感器包含两个互相串联或并联的热释电元。而且制成的两个电极化方向正好相反，环境
背景辐射对两个热释元件几乎具有相同的作用，使其产生释电效应相互抵消，于是探测器无信号输出。 
4)一旦人侵入探测区域内，人体红外辐射通过部分镜面聚焦，并被热释电元接收，但是两片热释电元接收到的
热量不同，热释电也不同，不能抵消，经信号处理而报警。 
5)多视场的获得，一是多法线小镜面组成的反光聚焦，聚光到传感器上称之为反射式光学系统。另一种是透射
式光学系统，是多面组合一起的透镜——菲尼尔透镜聚焦在红外传感器上。 
6)在这里要指出的是被动红外的几束光表示有几个视场，并非被动红外发红外光，视场越多，控制越严密。 

被动红外探头的优缺点： 

优点：本身不发任何类型的辐射，器件功耗很小，隐蔽性好。价格低廉。 
缺点： 
◆容易受各种热源、光源干扰 
◆被动红外穿透力差，人体的红外辐射容易被遮挡，不易被探头接收。 
◆易受射频辐射的干扰。 
◆环境温度和人体温度接近时，探测和灵敏度明显下降，有时造成短时失灵。 

被动红外探测新技术说明 

下面针对上述的被动红外探测器的缺点，结合富仕达的红外探测技术，进行详细分析。通过对其缺点分析发现
，我们实际上可以解决误报和探测下降甚至失灵的问题： 

1、误报问题 

为了降低误报率，只要排除误报的因素就可以。 

误报的因素可以分为两类： 

外界的因素: 
● 外界的热光源（尤其是白光光源）：如阳光、照明光源等; 
● 外界的射频信号。 

内部因素: 

●内部由于器件等的噪声和干扰，如光热释感应器的信号瞬变等。 

针对以上情况，富仕达公司的新一带红外探头、采用一些独特的技术来解决此类问题。 

信号出/入分析 

当有物体走入或走出一个探测区段时，在反极性探测感应器上会产生两个极性相反的信号，这种出/入信号的
能量将被独立分析并储存在内存记忆内。 只有在一段特定的时间内，当两个感应器上都收集到足够的出/入能量时
才会触发警报。 

其优点： “信号出/入分析”能超乎想象地提高探头对气流、随机噪音及发热器的抗干扰能力。如再加上“四
源红外反极性探测”，能使探头具有超卓的抗干扰能力，是现今市场上最优秀的产品。 

四源红外反极性探测(专利) 

探头内置两个红外感应器,移动信号会使两个感应器产生两个极性相反的信号；而非移动信号(射频、电磁、火
花、静电等干扰),则使两个感应器产生两个极性相同的信号。利用此原理便可准确无误地区分移动和非移动信号。 

其优点： 
1.应用此技术所获得抗干扰能力是传统的滤波及屏蔽技术所无法相比的； 
2.具有超卓的防小动物能力。 

自动脉冲数调节: 
所有富仕达牌探头都有此先进功能。“自动脉冲数调节”能检测每个红外信号能量的大小，然后把数据储存在
内存记忆内。探头能自动根据内存记忆内的能量水平改变工作模式： 

1、当能量水平高时(此时误报的机率较低)，使用低脉冲数模式， 功能跟一般非脉冲数调节探头一样。 
2、当能量水平低时(误报的机率较高)， 使用高脉冲数模式(最高可达25个脉冲)，可有效防止误报的发生。 

优点：有效防止误报而不降低灵敏度。 

2、探测能力的降低 

探测能力下降可以分为几个方面： 

探测器各探测试场分布不合理：如空隙过大，探测器被遮挡，如被泡沫、烟雾（入侵者经常使用的手段）、纸
、衣物等。由于体温和环境差别不大，造成探测能力下降。 针对以上情况，富仕达公司采用以下方法来解决问题
。 

高质 LODIF 段式 FRESNEL 透镜 (专利) 

无论是清色度，准确度及聚焦能力各方面均比传统的FRESNEL透镜高出30%。透镜材料采用高质抗白光干扰物料
制造，并采用分段式设计。 

优点： 
1. 能有效地收集人体发出的能量； 
2. 消除死位； 
3. 高抗白光干扰能力。 

微波防遮挡功能 (专利) 

只要有任何遮挡物在探头一米距离内移动,便会马上触发警报。 

优点：可有效防止闯入者以物件遮挡探头，使探头失去作用。 

主动微波自我检测功能 (美国专利号 5-287-111) 

微波发射器每隔3分钟便自我检测一次， 而自我检测是不需通过移动物体触发。如发现故障，故障开关便马上
被触发。 

优点：可确保探头工作正常，万一发生故障亦可及时更换。 

交叠式红外源(ISG)(专利) 

传统的四源红外设计在探测远距离物体时灵敏度会降低, 这是因为人体在远距离时不会同时通过上下两个红外
源, 所以便造成灵敏度降低甚至失灵。"交叠式红外源"能有效地解决此问题。 

优点： 
1.有效地解决远距离灵敏度降低及温度上升距离缩短的问题； 
2.可把距离提高至传统设计的二倍； 
3.简化调试过程。 

自动温度补偿 

“自动温度补偿”能自动调节放大器功率的大小来平衡因温度变化引起的灵敏度变化现像。 

优点: 使探头在整段工作温度区内都有稳定的灵敏度。 

3、其他一些新技术应用 

●实时数字处理功能 
●移动技术 
●背景分析 
●射频/电磁干扰保护 
●完备的电压控制

Hi,

How about the scalability of your proposed QoS signaling? Must each hop store the state for per-flow traffic?

	Title		: A Framework for Bi-Directional QoS Signaling
	Author(s)	: S. Shahrier, K. Shaheen
	Filename	: draft-shahrier-nsis-framework-00.txt
	Pages		: 5
	Date		: 20-Jun-02
	
This Internet Draft describes the end-to-end signaling architecture and 
framework model for transmitting packets through a series of 
heterogeneous networks. The Next-Steps-In-Signaling (NSIS) Working 
Group is already working on defining a set of requirements for the QoS 
signaling protocol [1]. This document is the follow on to the 
requirements draft, and the precursor to any solutions document. It 
outlines a   framework for transporting end-to-end QoS parameters, 
initiated and maintained by the 'Originator' of the service. 
 
This draft elaborates on the requirements draft.  It defines more 
precisely the scope of NSIS for end-to-end packet flows, in terms of  
QoS Signaling, where the resource reservations for the service are  
initiated by the 鬙riginator� end point and whether this service is bi-
directional or unidirectional (i.e., receive-only or send-only). The 
draft is fully backward compatible; it requires no changes to the 
existing QoS signaling protocols or procedures. It applysapplies 
generic messages to transport  the information needed to establish the 
desired QoS  for traffic flows in either one or both directions. This 
document can be used as the guideline for a prospective solution to the

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the

The protocol can be made scalable by combining a group of flows into a
single "aggregate flow"  class, where all the flows in the aggregate set
have the same QoS treatment. In this manner, the need to store state at each
hop for every single flow is eliminated => better scalability.

Another thing that can be done is not to replacate storing those QoS
parameters that are common to some of the flows. Thus, it needs to be stored
only once at each hop. This will also improve scalability.

Sharif.

Hi,

How about the scalability of your proposed QoS signaling? Must each hop
store the state for per-flow traffic?

Dear all, 

I have submitted a draft about RSVP Security Properties. 
The draft contains a detailed description of RSVP security issues.
 
You will also find a copy of the draft at following URL:
http://www.ersue.de/nsis/draft-tschofenig-rsvp-sec-properties-00.txt

Your comments are welcome!

Ciao 
Hannes

=======================================================================

Abstract 

   As the work of the NSIS working group has begun there are also 
   concerns about security and its implication for the design of a 
   signaling protocol. In order to understand the security properties 
   and available options of RSVP a number of documents have to be read. 
   This document tries to summarize the security properties of RSVP and 
   to view them from a different point of view. This work in NSIS is 
   part of the overall process of analyzing other protocols and to 
   learn from their design considerations. This document should also 
   provide a starting point for further discussions.

Hi all, 

We have made an analysis on RSVP regarding multicast and submitted 
a new draft to the internet drafts with the following abstract:

   RSVP version 1 has been designed for optimally support multicast.
   However, in reality multicast is being used much less frequently than
   anticipated.  Still, even for unicast (one sender, one receiver)
   communication, full-fledged multicast-enabled RSVP signaling must be
   used.  As pointed out in the NSIS requirement draft, multicast would
   not be necessarily required for an NSIS signaling protocol.  This
   draft analyses ingredients of RSVP Version 1 which are affected by
   multicast, and derives how these ingredients may look like if
   multicast is not supported.  We find removing multicast capability
   from RSVP will make it and its extensions considerably more light-
   weight.

You can also download it from 

http://www-tkn.ee.tu-berlin.de/~fu/nsis/draft-fu-rsvp-multicast-analysis-00.txt

All comments are appreciated very much! 

Cheers,
Xiaoming

Hi all,

A group of us who were involved in past NSIS framework activities got together after the interim meeting to put together a joint framework document in the form of an all-new individual submission. It (roughly) follows the structure that was introduced and refined at that meeting.

==========================================================================
Abstract 
 
   The NSIS working group is considering protocol developments in 
   signaling for resources for a traffic flow along its path in the 
   network. The requirements for such signaling are being developed in a 
   separate document; This Internet Draft proposes a framework for 
   such signaling. This initial version provides a model for describing 
   the entities that take part in the signaling and the ways in which 
   they can be used in different modes of operation. It also discusses 
   the overall structure of such a signaling protocol. Finally, it 
   considers the possible interactions of NSIS signaling with other 
   protocols and functions, including security issues. 
==========================================================================

While it works its way through the i-d editor queue, you can find a copy here:
http://www.epic.roke.co.uk/epic/draft-hancock-nsis-fw-00.txt

Comments are welcome. There is a list of open issue highlights in section 3.

Cheers,

Robert Hancock

Just as an FYI, I am listed as a co-author.  I've tried to
add a certain perspective on this work.  However, I have
done this purely as an individual, not as a WG chair.
Therefor, this draft should be considered as the work
of individuals & nothing more.

thanks,
John

Hi Sharif,

    I am a novice in the NSIS concept. Thus, I have a few queries :-

1. Could you give an example / scenario of an applications in which the
揙riginator� of a service is solely responsible for making the necessary
reservations, authentication and their cost. How will the cost of such a
service be decided?

2. I could not understand how the connection Setup will take place in a
heterogeneous IP network (where there are multiple service providers with
complex SLA's)

    Best regards,
    Rana

Hi all,

we put together a document representing our perspective on a
NSIS qos signaling framework.

Here is the abstract:

Abstract

   This draft provides a framework for QoS signaling that is optimized
   for Mobile IP handoffs. It covers the horizontal signaling between
   access routers (ARs) as well as the vertical signaling along the
   packet data path, both of which are triggered by handoff of mobile
   node (MN). The key design goals are wireless bandwidth economy,
   fast QoS establishment along the new data path after handoff and
   secure protocol operation.


The document will eventually be available from the i-d editor queue. However,
only after Yokohama meeting. You can find it at:
http://people.nokia.net/~cedric/Papers/draft-westphal-nsis-qos-mobileip-00.txt
in the meantime.
Please send your comments,

Cedric & Hemant.

I interpreted the cut-off time wrong (9:00) though to be in the evening)
Nevertheless, those of you interested in middlebox communication, here is a 
short text on middlebox communication in the NSIS framework.

1. Could you give an example / scenario of an applications in which the
"Originator" of a service is solely responsible for making the necessary
reservations, authentication and their cost. How will the cost of such a
service be decided?

Voice-over-IP, video telephony, video conferencing.

Cost is determined by the resource requirements of both sender and receiver.

The sender is responsible for the cost.

2. I could not understand how the connection Setup will take place in a
heterogeneous IP network (where there are multiple service providers with
complex SLA's)

Note that the text does not say hetrogenous "IP" network. The hetrogenous
refers to different wireline or wireless technologies, such as CDMS2000,
802.11, WCDMA, GSM. It is envisioned that these networks are interconnected
via the NSIS network.

Charles,


So is this aggregate flow sent to a single receiver or multiple receivers?

Aggregate flow consists of bundling of a large number of flows that have the
same QoS treatment. At various points, the flows are again separated and
directed to different receivers.

Is there any other major difference of the proposal from original RSVP 
except that routers may need to do two-way reservation based on messages 
passed through?

The only difference is the message formats needed to convey reservation
information for send and receive direction simultaneously in the same
message.

Thx./Charles

Hi Marcus,

I like this draft a lot. Especially since, following recent scope discussions, we've been supposed to think about NSIS != QoS signalling but broader, but all our instincts about the top level way the protocol should operate are clearly still driven by QoS-derived thinking (although we did our best to make the latest framework more generic, at least in the terminology). So, thinking about the middlebox aspect is interesting. 

On which basis, a few questions:

1. On the 'directional property' (6.3) I see the reasoning clearly. The implication of this (to me) is that the ability to support receiver initiation as well as sender initiation is a must (in fact, a MUST). Is this true?

2. With a QoS background, we've tended to think in terms of a chain-of-trust model (in fact, a chain-of-AAA-interactions) model. Does the same thinking apply in the middlebox case, or something more complicated? This assumption has quite a big impact on the way an eventual protocol gets structured (it's one of our framework critical issues.)

3. Relatedly, I guess that using NSIS for this might commonly result in partial failures ("i've set things up this far but the rest needs to be done from the other end"). Again, thinking about semantics of acknowledgement/error messages was one of our open issues. Do you think that this sort of thing could be service specific (and hence opaque to NSIS) or does the protocol have to account for it somehow?

4. The multihomed network problem (6.5) is clearly a headache. It seems to me that we really need a  sort of ultra-lightweight path discovery message (icmp based?) which the sender can generate (maybe at receiver request), but which carries so little information that people will be happy-ish (maybe...) to let it through firewalls. But i don't know whether this is in the scope of NSIS to think about (it should be 'on-path' enough for most people...)

Cheers,

Robert

Hi all,

Section 3.2.5 "Multicast versus Unicast" of [draft-hancock-nsis-fw-00.txt]
states:
   Multicast support, compared to unicast support, would introduce a 
   level of complexity into the NSIS protocol mainly related to: 
   * complex state maintenance to support dynamic membership changes in 
   the multicast groups, such as reservation state merging and 
   maintenance. 
   * a state per flow has to be maintained that is used during backward 
   routing. 
    
RSVP, as a typical example, supports dynamic multicast member
and large number of heterounous (QoS request of the) receivers. 
We think multicast brings more mandatory features to RSVPv1 than 
that described above:

- Optimized as receiver-initiated way to support multicast receivers
especially, heterounous (QoS request of the) receivers

- Two-pass (Path/Resv) signaling message exchange (which results in
complex state management)

- Specification on "reservation styles" to tell network nodes
which set of receivers and how simular these receivers' QoS request 
are (having to be used anywhere)

- Complicated error handling (e.g., killer problems)

These are analyzed in [draft-fu-rsvp-multicast-analysis-00.txt]. 

Due to the fact that vast majority of application being unicast,
We think it could be interesting to remove multicast in RSVP. 
Although sender-initiated is recommended for a such simplication,
it is possible to support both sender-initiated and receiver-initiated 
way, via high-level interaction of protocol components. 
In principle, end-to-end bi-directional way could be supported
as well, however, hop-by-hop bi-directional support 
depends on the network topology and could be locally 
optimized if an AS (even an RSVPhop-RSVPhop pair) supports 
symmetric routing of data packets.

A potential implication due to the sender-initiated one-way
signaling message is some simpler abstraction like "QoS profile"
could be used instead of Sender_TSpec/AdSpec and FlowSpec, 
even it would probably not developed within NSIS.

Still, how to support multicast capability by a unicast-dedicated 
RSVP-variant would be an open issue. Nevertheless, we notice that 
there are some examples considering multicast as a function built 
on top of unicast routing rather than as an integral part of it.

Thanks,
Xiaoming

Fine. So problems and solutions with RSVP may largely apply to this as well.

I've submitted a revision of the network-friendly midcom
(i.e. using an RSVP-like approach for midcom) draft, which
is basically a framework document for the protocol that's
already in the internet drafts directory, but it will take
a few days to work through the queue.  In the interim it's
available at http://www.employees.org/~shore/draft-shore-friendly-midcom-01.txt

Thanks,

Melinda

I'd like to take a shot at these, if I may.

At 09:57 AM 6/25/02 +0100, Hancock, Robert wrote:
>1. On the 'directional property' (6.3) I see the reasoning clearly. The implication of this (to me) is that the ability to support receiver initiation as well as sender initiation is a must (in fact, a MUST). Is this true?

Not necessarily - a sender-initiated "reservation" may include
rules to describe incoming packets.  It's probably best to think
of the problem in terms of who owns the policy in the firewall
and who's allowed to manipulate it (and there are some rather
difficult issues here with regard to firewalls outside the
sender's policy domain).  I tend to think of this use of signaling
as being responsive to individual endpoint's *application's* needs,
and not being useful for general firewall provisioning/configuration.

>2. With a QoS background, we've tended to think in terms of a chain-of-trust model (in fact, a chain-of-AAA-interactions) model. Does the same thinking apply in the middlebox case, or something more complicated? This assumption has quite a big impact on the way an eventual protocol gets structured (it's one of our framework critical issues.)

This is a huge problem, actually.  Aside from the lack of authentication
infrastructure that would allow arbitrary middleboxes to authenticate
to each other, there's an authorization problem, as well.  It is 
incorrect to assume that you can trust anybody who authenticates 
correctly (assuming that's possible in the first place).

>4. The multihomed network problem (6.5) is clearly a headache. It seems to me that we really need a  sort of ultra-lightweight path discovery message (icmp based?) which the sender can generate (maybe at receiver request), but which carries so little information that people will be happy-ish (maybe...) to let it through firewalls. But i don't know whether this is in the scope of NSIS to think about (it should be 'on-path' enough for most people...)

I would argue that moving a path discovery mechanism out of scope
(or at least out of the protocol) removes responsiveness to routing
and topology changes.  But aside from that, one of the tremendous
advantages to using an RSVP-like approach to talking to middleboxes
is that it allows correct operation in the face of the kind of minor
topological complexity that would stymie midcom.  For example, in
the path from here to there you've got a firewall and you've got a
NAT.  How do you know what address to present to the firewall in your
pinhole request?

, 也是一个数目, 这差不多可以交报警管理月费了. 针对这个市场反馈信息, 永华智能标准型增加了一个功能, 布
撤防报告可以独立编程, 用户可以选择布/撤防不报告, 而低压, 弱电等报告照旧, 主机则增加了一个定时报告, 每
天一次, 方便中心掌握用户主机使用情况. 万一用户与中心发生争议时, 主机存有最后8次布/撤防时间记录可以提
供有关资料证明 (黑匣子功能).
在已经入住的小区, 可以先考虑使用485标准型, 通过电话线联网, 免去布线的麻烦. 如果用户非常在意话费支
出, 则可以考虑每户拉一条4芯线, 采用总线制通讯, 中央供电, 可选择485增强型, 灵活配用无线或有线探测器. 
有条件的用户则可选用485豪华型, 配有较多防区, 如果不想破坏现有装修的话, 也可选择使用无线探测器及电话线
与中心通讯(用户可编程). 
在尚未入住, 正处建筑期的小区, 可以选用485经济型, 利用综合布线(总线制)作为中心通讯方式, 予埋有线探
测器与主机之间的连线(如探头, 门磁), 大大降低配件成本, 同时又可因应个别用户要求随意增加无线探测器(如在
阳台安装幕帘探头), 满足每个用户的不同需求.
不论是用总线制还是电话线, 485主机全部内置无线接收器, 不仅方便无线遥控布/撤防及扩充无线防区, 而且
带有网络转发功能, 对于来自车辆网络发射机, 巡更站主机, 保安员求救发射机, 电话线防剪网络发射机的信号都
能接收解码并通过总线或电话线报告中心. 对于采用总线制的物业管理中心, 则需要配备解码器与SK-485中心
连接以及不间断电源向各用户供电, 还需配置适当的电话线以接收个别用户使用电话线的报警, 并可以利用该线向
上级中心报警或向用户查询. 永华智能将提供与中心相关的全部设备. 
永华智能485防盗报警系统为小区提供了低成本的网络系统, 圆满解决了小区内亟待解决的其它安全防范的问题
, 在总线制零话费的条件下, 最大限度发挥了网络功能 (任意转发而不产生话费). 除了现有的防车辆被盗, 防电话
线破坏, 无线实时巡更, 保安员救护系统等网络功能外, 将来更可扩充到实时跟踪, 电梯求救等多种应用. 
网络功能固然引人入胜, 但是最主要的还是防盗系统本身的功能过硬才能获取用户的信心, 而大用户量的安装
才能形成网络. 永华智能在485防盗报警系统本身作出了巨大的改进, 这表现在开发双传感器红外探头大大降低误报

Hi all,

Just as a reminder, there are to be no presentations at the IETF meeting.
The point of the meeting is for discussion of open issues - which assumes
there has been discussion on the mailing list.  In the event of time
constaints, all drafts without discussion will either be given a reduced
time at the meeting or dropped from the agenda - depending on the amount
of issues with other drafts.

John

I used the term 'receiver initiated' to mean 'receiver of data packets sets up the reservation' (this is the way I think it's used in the NSIS requirements draft). So, when you say 'sender-initiated reservation ... incoming packets' I think we must be describing the same requirement. (And we have to think of the incoming and outgoing flows as basically logically distinct, because of asymmetric routing reasons.)

The reason I raise the question is that there is an open issue in the requirements draft about whether we can restrict NSIS to thinking about the sender initiated case (i.e. only support signalling for reservations about outgoing packets), since you can sometimes build a very lightweight protocol under this assumption. However, it appears that it can't cover all the bases (especially this one).

Yep, it's clear that this is a hard issue. But even apart from the solution, I'm still struggling to work out what the gross operational requirements are in the multi-'domain' case (it's one of our prime framework issues, section 3.3.3 of our latest framework draft). To be specific, consider the following example:

host --[1]-- nsis entity A --[2]-- nsis entity B --> rest of world

([1] and [2] are logical associations - we call them 'peer sessions' - between peer NSIS entities, which might extend over multiple IP hops.)

We've found it would be nice to assume that the AAA (at least, the first two As) aspects of [1] are independent of the AAA aspects of [2], and so host and NSIS B don't have any mutual authentication or authorisation (if they do, they set up a direct peer session). But we don't know if this is reasonable, because it obviously depends on the resource type being signalled for.

Actually, there is a good case for saying that AAA aspects are out of NSIS scope because they're all resource specific (and opaque to us). But, authentication is related to key management, and we'd like NSIS to be able to do something sensible for its users in this area, and authorisation models seem to affect state storage requirements where authorisation at one node is contingent on authorisation at another node (before or after it in the signalling chain). So, it seems we at least need to be thinking about it at some level.

It's clear that we need technologies for path discovery for precisely this reason. I'm not sure how many technologies there should be. NSIS will (I hope) develop a general RSVP-like mechanism; I'm wondering if it also needs a special lightweight variant which firewall administrators are happy about being transparent to.

Your question about NAT traversal is a good one, which we also tried to consider explicitly in our latest framework. In the simple host-NAT-firewall case, we would have the NAT as a nearly-transparent 'NSIS forwarder' that re-wrote the flow definition part of the message. By the firewall saw the signalling, the pinhole request in the opaque part of the message would refer to the modified (and locally valid) flow definition. But I haven't looked at all the other cases (e.g. in your TIST draft), and in particular I'm not sure whether NSIS should be able to carry actual mapping table entries (it's not an NSIS requirement at the moment). There are too many protocol specific NAT traversal proposals for me to keep up with ...

I would tend to want to do that for this particular application,
anyway, because 1) in the cases which make firewalls and NATs
difficult in the first place (VoIP, for example) the receiver won't 
have sufficient information (i.e. addresses and port numbers) to
request the reservation until the sender tells him, anyway, and
2) there may be policy reasons to have the person initiating
the request "closer" to the administrative domain of the sender.
That last bit is muddy, granted, and needs a lot more work in 
general - it's related to the security difficulties that we'll
surely be grappling with.

>We've found it would be nice to assume that the AAA (at least, the first two As) aspects of [1] are independent of the AAA aspects of [2], and so host and NSIS B don't have any mutual authentication or authorisation (if they do, they set up a direct peer session). But we don't know if this is reasonable, because it obviously depends on the resource type being signalled for.

It's a little messier than that, actually - one of the benefits
of talking to middleboxes like this is that you don't need to know
where they are in advance.  That is to say, you don't need an
existing relationship with them.  The difficulty is that for 
practical purposes there's no good way in the internet *today*
to have arbitrary entities be authenticated to each other (TLS
works because a limited number of servers buy certs from more-or-
less trusted certificate agencies - imagine every middlebox doing
that).  But here's the real question - even if you could authenticate
someone you'd never known existed, on what basis do you authorize 
them to, say, open a hole in your firewall?

>It's clear that we need technologies for path discovery for precisely this reason. I'm not sure how many technologies there should be. NSIS will (I hope) develop a general RSVP-like mechanism; I'm wondering if it also needs a special lightweight variant which firewall administrators are happy about being transparent to.

The problem is how you intend to use the information.  Aside from
the fact that the folks who run big networks don't *want* you to know
where their firewalls are, I've been looking at some of the arguments
for middlebox discovery and haven't found anything particularly
compelling.  Actually, that's not quite right - what I have found is
a compelling argument for not doing it.  It's like programming -
if you do some work to find out whether or not you can do something
and if you can then you try to do it, you create potential race
conditions.  If you just go ahead and do it and check the results
you'll know whether or not you succeeded, you saved yourself the overhead
of running checks ahead of time, and you avoid race conditions.

I've gotten religion about this, and so you'll have to forgive me.  If
you do middlebox discovery it suggests that you intend to do something
with the information that you collect.  There are multiple problems
with doing so, including that discovery only gives you a picture of
the network at the time that you did the discovery, and yet one of
the things we like (don't we?) about IP is that routing is adaptive
to changes in network state on a per-packet basis.  By establishing
explicit connections to middleboxes and wiring state into middleboxes
we're violating two fundamental IP design principles, one of them
major and the other somewhat lesser.  The major one is that of fate-
sharing, which is part of what makes (or used to make) applications
running over IP so robust.  The lesser one is layering, although
I feel pretty strongly that layer violations lead to network 
topology problems and perhaps isn't so lesser after all.

I would tread quite lightly where discovery is concerned.

Melinda

DEAR FRIEND,

I AM BENSON SEKO SON OF THE LATE MOBUTU SESE SEKO, THE
FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE ZAIRE. I AM PRESENTLY
UNDER PROTECTIVE CUSTODY IN NIGERIA AS A POLITICAL
REFUGEE. I GOT YOUR CONTACT DURING
MY SEARCH FOR A STRANGER THAT CAN COOPERATE WITH ME IN
THIS MUTUAL TRANSACTION. I WANT YOU TO NOTE THAT THIS
BUSINESS WILL
BENEFIT BOTH OF US. HOWEVER, YOU MUST CONFIRM YOUR
ABILITY TO HANDLE THIS BECAUSE IT INVOLVES A LARGE
AMOUNT OF MONEY. THE MONEY (47 MILLION US DOLLARS )

I ESCAPED  WITH MY PARENTS ALONG WITH MY BROTHER
BASHER  OUT OF DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF 
CONGO (DRC) TO ABIDJAN, COTE D'IVOIRE WHERE MY FAMILY 
AND I SETTLED, WHILE WE LATER MOVED  TO SETTLED IN 
MORROCO WHERE MY FATHER LATER DIED OF CANCER 
DISEASE.I DECIDED LAYING LOW IN AFRICA TO 
STUDY THE SITUATION TILL  WHEN THINGS GETS BETTER, 
LIKE NOW THAT PRESIDENT KABILA IS DEAD AND THE SON 
TAKING OVER (JOSEPH KABILA). ONE OF MY LATE FATHER'S 
CHATEAUX IN SOUTHERN FRANCE WAS CONFISCATED  BY THE 
FRENCH GOVERNMENT,  THIS LED TO THE DECISION TO TURN 
THE REMAINING FUNDS OVER TO A SAFE SECURITY COMPANY IN
EUROPE VIA THE DIPLOMATIC COURIER SERVICES FOR SAFE KEEPING
AS MOST OF MY FATHER'S BILLIONS OF DOLLARS 
DEPOSITED IN SWISS BANKS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS
HAVE BEEN FROZEN BY THE GOVERNMENT OF 
(DR) MR LAURENT  KABILA HAVING CONCLUDED ARRANGEMENTS
WITH THE SWISS GOVERNMENT AND OTHER CONTRIES INVOLVED.
NOW THE CRISIS HAS ABATED I AM LOOKING FOR A 
PERSON LIKE YOU TO PROCEED TO THE PLACE OF THE
SECURITY COMPANY IN ORDER TO CLEAR THE FUND AND INVEST
ON MY BEHALF AS I DON扵 WANT MY NAME TO BE USED FOR
NOW AS I REALISE VERY MUCH THE TYPE OF HATRED LATE 
KABILA THE FORMER HEAD OF STATE HAS FOR MY LATE FATHER
AND EVEN HIS SON WHO IS NOW THE HEAD OF STATE.
NOTE THAT I WILL SEND TO YOU THE RELEVANT DOCUMENTS
THAT WILL ENABLE YOU TAKE POSSESION OF THE  FUND
FOR ONWARD INVESTMENT FOR OUR MUTUAL BENEFIT. ALL I
NEED FROM YOU IS AS FOLLOWS:
1. A  COMMITTMENT THAT YOU
WILL KEEP THE TRANSACTION STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL.
2. YOUR CONFIRMATION OF YOUR ABILITY TO HANDLE THIS.
3. YOUR TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS INCLUDING
MOBILE FOR EASY COMMUNICATION.
4. YOUR FULL PERMANENT ADDRESS.
AS SOON AS I GET THE ABOVE INFORMATION FROM YOU, I
WILL DISCLOSE TO YOU THE NAME AND THE COUNTRY OF THE
SECURITY COMPANY SO THAT YOU CAN MAKE ARRANGEMENTS
TO TRAVEL AND COLLECT THE LUGGAGES.
I AM WAITING FOR YOUR RESPONSE VIA EMAIL:bseko6@muchomail.com

Hi Melinda,

On "discovery": I think there's a small point and a bigger point.

Small point (?): I don't want to imply too much by the term "discovery". So far as I'm concerned, the RSVP PATH message is a discovery mechanism (in the sense that it's the mechanism by which an RSVP capable node discovers its upstream neighbour to send RESV messages to), and I assume you're happy with that. It still seems the most general way for a receiver to find the ingress node for a flow, but some very stripped-down PATH-equivalent could be used for that (how many firewalls will happily pass a PATH message I wonder). I'm just not sure how many alternatives NSIS should try to investigate. I'm certainly not interested in developing a general purpose "let's go out and find all the middleboxes in the Internet" solution, and I don't think anyone else is proposing that either.

Bigger point: it would clearly be nice if we could make 'what NSIS does' adaptive to network changes to the same extent that packet routing is. But NSIS is all about creating flow state or something (e.g. per-some-class state) derived from it. (If NSIS didn't modify the network state along the path, we could all pretty well stop now.) The ideal (for some people) seems to be that all that state should be soft, but as soon as authentication and message protection (let alone service negotiation and authorisation) are involved I guess this is going to be tricky. If your neighbour middlebox changes, do you really want to be kept ignorant of the fact? Just finding out automatically and reacting seems the best one can aim for; maybe I'm over pessimistic.

Your questions about how on earth authorisation will take place are of course reasonable. But so far as I can tell, the mechanisms by which this will happen are highly resource-type specific and so defining them is out of scope of NSIS (we suggested this in our latest framework draft anyway); I think the best we can do is see if there are particular types of operations which don't need authorisation (e.g. if you can prove you're the same person who opened a pinhole, you probably don't need to be re-authorised to close it??). I don't know if this view is generally held (it's not compatible with a strict reading of the latest set of requirements).

Hi, 

Resource Management Function is introduced in this draft as "RMF: an abstract concept,  representing the management of resources in a domain or a node". I think that this definition is not appropriate for the aim of NSIS which is Signaling QoS, not Signaling resource. QoS Management Functioin (QMF) is suggested to be used because QMF includes RMF besides QoS Control, QoS provisioning, QoS policy, QoS mapping, QoS monitoring, etc..

Subject: [NSIS] New framework draft


Hi all,

A group of us who were involved in past NSIS framework activities got together after the interim meeting to put together a joint framework document in the form of an all-new individual submission. It (roughly) follows the structure that was introduced and refined at that meeting.

==========================================================================
Abstract 
 
   The NSIS working group is considering protocol developments in 
   signaling for resources for a traffic flow along its path in the 
   network. The requirements for such signaling are being developed in a 
   separate document; This Internet Draft proposes a framework for 
   such signaling. This initial version provides a model for describing 
   the entities that take part in the signaling and the ways in which 
   they can be used in different modes of operation. It also discusses 
   the overall structure of such a signaling protocol. Finally, it 
   considers the possible interactions of NSIS signaling with other 
   protocols and functions, including security issues. 
==========================================================================

While it works its way through the i-d editor queue, you can find a copy here:
http://www.epic.roke.co.uk/epic/draft-hancock-nsis-fw-00.txt

Comments are welcome. There is a list of open issue highlights in section 3.

Cheers,

Robert Hancock

Hi Zhigang,

The RMF is not part of NSIS. It is part of the NSIS framework because it is
one of the potential entities with which the NSIS entites could
interoperate. We specifically decided on the use of Resource Management
Function because NSIS technically isn't about QoS (alone) anymore. In the
framework, a resource can refer to bandwidth but also to filtering space,
schedulers, ...

Hope this helps,
Sven.

      QoS Management Function


Hi,

Resource Management Function is introduced in this draft as "RMF: an
abstract concept,  representing the management of resources in a domain or
a node". I think that this definition is not appropriate for the aim of
NSIS which is Signaling QoS, not Signaling resource. QoS Management
Functioin (QMF) is suggested to be used because QMF includes RMF besides
QoS Control, QoS provisioning, QoS policy, QoS mapping, QoS monitoring,
etc..

Subject: [NSIS] New framework draft


Hi all,

A group of us who were involved in past NSIS framework activities got
together after the interim meeting to put together a joint framework
document in the form of an all-new individual submission. It (roughly)
follows the structure that was introduced and refined at that meeting.

==========================================================================
Abstract

   The NSIS working group is considering protocol developments in
   signaling for resources for a traffic flow along its path in the
   network. The requirements for such signaling are being developed in a
   separate document; This Internet Draft proposes a framework for
   such signaling. This initial version provides a model for describing
   the entities that take part in the signaling and the ways in which
   they can be used in different modes of operation. It also discusses
   the overall structure of such a signaling protocol. Finally, it
   considers the possible interactions of NSIS signaling with other
   protocols and functions, including security issues.
==========================================================================

While it works its way through the i-d editor queue, you can find a copy
here:
http://www.epic.roke.co.uk/epic/draft-hancock-nsis-fw-00.txt

Comments are welcome. There is a list of open issue highlights in section
3.

Cheers,

Robert Hancock

And if it is going to be perfectly in the sense of IETF, NSIS is not only about QoS signaling, it is about service related signaling in general. What about calling the above system "Service Management Function"?

(most?) previous ones (certainly the ones I have been involved in). One =

Hi all

I agree with the explanation given by Robert regarding RMF. I am in
favor of keeping the term RMF.

Hi all,

Maybe we don't care what term/name is called. The most important is that the "resources" and "resource management" should be defined exactly, and the relationship between resource and QoS should be clarified. Is RMF similar as BB?

Hi all

I agree with the explanation given by Robert regarding RMF. I am in
favor of keeping the term RMF.

v.s. QoS Management Function


hi all,

I think it's valuable for Zhigang to highlight the point, because this is one of the major changes in this NSIS framework input compared to (most?) previous ones (certainly the ones I have been involved in). One of the consequences of the email discussions around the time of the interim meeting (e.g. http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/working-groups/nsis/current/msg01378.html) was that we should look at more general resources than just QOS. (IMHO, this is still not obvious even in the post-interim clarified charter, BTW.)

This has quite a big impact on what we write, at least. We still need a good name for this "thing we are signalling for", "resource" (and hence RMF) is a first guess. 'Service' seems to me to be too general. The key point which is special about NSIS is that the relevant resources are those which have to be provided by entities along the data path, but I can't think of a snappy term for that.

The other impact is that we might need to broaden our thinking about how such a signalling protocol might fit into an overall solution to some resource management problem (hence my interest in Marcus' firewall draft). Certainly, the relationship between nsis and midcom/tist activities seems important to understand.

	Title		: Analysis on RSVP Regarding Multicast

RSVP version 1 has been designed for optimally support multicast.
However, in reality multicast is being used much less frequently than
anticipated.  Still, even for unicast (one sender, one receiver)
communication, full-fledged multicast-enabled RSVP signaling must be
used.  As pointed out in the NSIS requirement draft, multicast would
not be necessarily required for an NSIS signaling protocol.  This
draft analyses ingredients of RSVP Version 1 which are affected by
multicast, and derives how these ingredients may look like if
multicast is not supported.  We find removing multicast capability
from RSVP will make it and its extensions considerably more light-
weight.

The NSIS working group is considering protocol developments in 
signaling for resources for a traffic flow along its path in the 
network. The requirements for such signaling are being developed in a 
separate document [2]; This Internet Draft proposes a framework for 
such signaling. This initial version provides a model for describing 
the entities that take part in the signaling and the ways in which 
they can be used in different modes of operation. It also discusses 
the overall structure of such a signaling protocol. Finally, it 
considers the possible interactions of NSIS signaling with other 
protocols and functions, including security issues.

Hi Zhigang,

'QoS' is one example of 'resource'.

I'm actually not sure it is possible to define 'resource' precisely. =
The basic point is that NSIS should provide a generally useful =
signalling capability, which you could use for various types of =
resource; exactly what types is going to be defined implicitly by =
whether the NSIS capabilities are appropriate to the resource type =
needs. In that sense, there's a benefit in vagueness.

An RMF is absolutely not a BB. In our framework, "RMF" is just a name =
for what NSIS offloads certain problems in resource management to, it's =
a way to talk about the boundary of the NSIS problem space. NSIS =
doesn't care how the RMF is implemented; it should be possible to =
support both centralised and distributed resource management strategies =
with the same NSIS protocol. The one thing that is ruled out =
(initially) is NSIS signalling directly to a centralised (off-path) =
entity; this is a consequence of recent scope guidance. Please see =
especially section 5.1 of the draft (the hardest section to write, by =
the way).=20

Yours,

Robert H.

Hi, 

In the draft about In-Band & Out-of-Band:

 "In-band signaling means that the path followed by the user data packets is the same as the path followed by signaling messages. In other words, the signaling and data paths are identical. Out-of-band signaling means that the path followed by signaling messages might be different from the path used by the user data packets. "

So in-band signaling is same as RSVP's operation mode? And must it install soft states in each router it passed through based on per-flow or per-class-flow? I think that it may be better if in-band signaling is used in access network and out-of-band signaling is used in backbone networks (i.e. the out-of-band signaling is used for communcation between RMFs which are responsible for the "resource" management independent of concrete user traffic in control plane). Is resource reservation really needed in backbone network now or in the future? 

I don't know why "the initial goal of NSIS is to concentrate mainly on the in-band case".

Hi all,

A group of us who were involved in past NSIS framework activities got together after the interim meeting to put together a joint framework document in the form of an all-new individual submission. It (roughly) follows the structure that was introduced and refined at that meeting.

==========================================================================
Abstract 
 
   The NSIS working group is considering protocol developments in 
   signaling for resources for a traffic flow along its path in the 
   network. The requirements for such signaling are being developed in a 
   separate document; This Internet Draft proposes a framework for 
   such signaling. This initial version provides a model for describing 
   the entities that take part in the signaling and the ways in which 
   they can be used in different modes of operation. It also discusses 
   the overall structure of such a signaling protocol. Finally, it 
   considers the possible interactions of NSIS signaling with other 
   protocols and functions, including security issues. 
==========================================================================

While it works its way through the i-d editor queue, you can find a copy here:
http://www.epic.roke.co.uk/epic/draft-hancock-nsis-fw-00.txt

Comments are welcome. There is a list of open issue highlights in section 3.

Cheers,

Robert Hancock

[reh] basically yes, from a topological ("where the messages go") point =

[reh] that's one reasonable way for it to work. see 4.4 about general =
state management issues; there are several different sorts of state and =
several different ways to manage them. and some of the state management =
is an RMF responsibility.

[reh] that's a good question. however, in our framework we tried hard =
to avoid saying that NSIS would work in particular ways in particular =
network parts. (ideally, I think there should be implementation and =
deployment flexibility within the protocol to allow this.)

[reh] that's a WG chair/AD question.

Hi Kan,

> I don't know why "the initial goal of NSIS is to concentrate 
> mainly on the in-band case". 

This was part of the chartering process.  NSIS is chartered to
solve in-band signaling.  Out of band signaling needs could
be documented, but it is doubtful that NSIS will try to solve
out-of-band signaling, or at least not until there is 
rechartering of the WG.

Hi Kan,

> Resource Management Function is introduced in this draft as 
> "RMF: an abstract concept,  representing the management of 
> resources in a domain or a node". I think that this 
> definition is not appropriate for the aim of NSIS which is 
> Signaling QoS, not Signaling resource. QoS Management 
> Functioin (QMF) is suggested to be used because QMF includes 
> RMF besides QoS Control, QoS provisioning, QoS policy, QoS 
> mapping, QoS monitoring, etc..

The problem about QoS is, noone knows exactly what it is.
NSIS could potentially be used to install filters in
a firewall, for example.  There is some interest in using
NSIS for NAT traversal.  Finally, NSIS should be agnostic
about exactly what is being signaled for, therefore I think 
Resource is better.

Hi Kan,

RMF is a generic term, it is not a BB - it could be a simple
function that only does access control, or it could be
a BB.  It is out of scope of NSIS to deterime exactly what
the RMF is.

Hi, all

We have updated the draft on features of IPv6 signaling and submitted the new version to the IETF with the following abstract;

  In this draft, we describe the features and requirements of IPv6 
  signaling protocol and explain the needs of QoS signaling in IPv6 
  network. We also explain mapping of IPv6 signaling with IPv4 in some 
  detail. 

This draft was revised as follows
 
- added  the requirements of QoS signaling protocol in IPv6 
  network (section 2.4)
- added  mapping of IPv6 signaling with IPv4 (section 3) 
- Appendix. The delivering methods of signaling messages in IPv6 network      
   (specifying solution is moved into appendix)

You can see it from
http://opticalip.icu.ac.kr/draft-choi-ipv6-signaling-02.txt

All comments are apprecieated very much.

Regards,
Gyu Myoung Lee

No, certainly not - aside from the topology problems I've
discussed, network operators typically do not want to make
known the location of their firewalls.

>Bigger point: it would clearly be nice if we could make 'what NSIS does' adaptive to network changes to the same extent that packet routing is. 

What I think I'm getting at here is the ability to allow applications
to adapt to changes in network state, if needed.  Consider two very
different cases - firewalls and NATs.  The sender periodically sends
out idempotent Path messages that possibly are either signed or have 
some other sort of authentication mechanism.  A routing change forces 
packets to traverse a new middlebox (i.e. one not on the original path).  
In the firewall case adaptation is pretty straightforward - the
firewall authenticates the message (introducing new state - I would never
suggest simply moving the state [although there are some interesting
group keying possibilities evolving as that work progresses]) and
opens the new pinhole (or not).  In the NAT case in addition to 
adding new authentication/security state, the contents of the Resv
message that are returned to the sender have changed.  That is to
say, the address at which the sender is seen by the receiver has
changed.  With that piece of information here is an opportunity for
the application to adapt (although I think it highly unlikely that
this kind of capability will creep into, say VoIP protocols).  I
would never suggest that it's the responsibility of the signaling
system to do anything but carry the new address back to the sender.

Melinda

Hi all,

As a result of discussions at the interim meeting we put together a
separate document on nsis resilience. It tries to list issues brought up at
the interim meeting together with some new ones in a broader general scope.
The document has finally made it through to the IETF repository. Some
people have expressed interest during the interim meeting, so hopefully the
document can help in structuring the discussion.

Best regards,
Sven

     Title          : NSIS resilience analysis

The Next Steps in Signaling (NSIS) working group is chartered to
develop requirements, architecture and protocols for the next IETF
steps in signaling Quality-of-Service (QoS). Although the NSIS
protocol may eventually be used for other applications in addition
to QoS, it is expected that these, in much the same way as QoS, will
depend on predictable and high-availability service delivery. This
document attempts to identify, list and classify potential
resilience issues for the NSIS protocol.

Hi Sven 

I will only comment your draft starting from Section 5.
Main comment that I have is related to the fact  that you somehow
emphasise that the per-class states complicate the failure notification
and recovery issues, while I think that failure notification and recovery 
issues are independent of the type of these states. Another comment is related to the fact that 
you use a limted number of solutions, as the NSIS solutions, while these 
solutions might be just examples.

See more comments in line with your text (copied from your draft). 
My comments are given betrween <<>>.


Best regards,
Georgios

------------
      5. Failure description 
                   
               5.1.    Internal data plane failures 
                   
                  Data plane failures can result from the breakdown or 
                  misconfiguration of data path entities such as routers or links. In 
                  case of a router, the failure can be due to a power outage, a 
                  software crash or hardware failure, e.g. interface cards. Link 
                  failures can be due to defective interface cards or to lower layer 
                  failures such as cable cuts. 
                  We make a distinction between data plane failures that are internal 
                  to a QoS domain and failures at the edges of a QoS domain (In case 
                  of a QoS domain consisting of a single router, an internal failure 
                  can occur when a component link in a link bundle attached to the 
                  router fails). Internal data plane failures should be solved locally 
                  and should not involve NSIS signalling when succesful.  

<< [georgios] What do you mean here? Do you mean that Internal data plane features should not 
involve NSIS 'signalling when sucessfull. Some of the NSIS modes of operation 
should be able to apply NSIS signaling for internal data plane failure.>>

                   
               5.2.    External data plane failures 
                   
                  Edge failures can for instance occur when an Autonomous System 
                  Border Router (ASBR) or the link between two ASBRs goes down. 
                  Recovery from this type of failures requires a coordinated action 
                  between two or more QoS domains and will therefore impact NSIS 
                  signalling. 
<<[georgios] probably you can find other terms than Autonomous System.>>


                   
               5.3.    Control plane failures 
                   
                  Two main types of control plane failures are distinguished: 
                  - Failure of an NSIS entity, e.g. a QI, QC or QR failure. If the QI 
                  is located at the end host, the end host is also considered to be 
                  part of the control plane of the NSIS signalling. 
                  - Loss of signalling messages between NSIS entities 

<<  [georgios] Please chnage terminology according to the new [hancock - framework] >>

                   
               5.4.    QoS degradation 
                   
                  A failure does not necessarily have to equal a loss of connectivity. 
                  In a QoS-enabled environment, a degradation of the perceived 
                  performance on the data path can also be categorised as a failure. 
                  It may be important to distinguish these failures from a 'hard' 
                  failure (involving loss of connectivity) in order to support 
                  hierarchical protection. 
                    
         << [georgios]  This is a policing matter! is not a failure>>          
                   
               6. Recovery issues 
                   
               6.1.    Failure detection 
                   
                  In the data plane, node failures can be detected from the absence of 
                  hello messages from the Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP). Link 
                  failure indications can usually be derived from of lower-layer 
                  failure indications (loss of light, loss of signal). In case of 
                  logical links, failure detection can be more problematic and must 
                  either take place via the hello protocol or via a specific OAM 
                  procedure. 

                   << [georgios]  Well other means could be used. Please do not restrict 
it only to this solution. Mention this as an example, please include other references, e.g., [RMD] >>

                  In the control plane, NSIS failure detection involves the following 
                  issues: 
                  - When the QI is different from the end host, QI and end host need 
                  to be aware of each others failures. Two factors can complicate this 
                  problem. First, the QI may keep hard-state related to the end-host 
                  requests because the overhead of refreshes is deemed excessive. In 
                  this case, state refreshes can not be used as a failure detection 
                  mechanism. Second, the end host is not necessarily an NSIS speaker, 
                  which means that the detection mechanism must be supported outside 
                  of NSIS signalling. One potential solution is the use of higher and 
                  or lower layer triggers in the QI. This means that the QI should 
                  have higher/lower layer information available. 
<< [georgios] is this related to out of band? Is this within NSIS scope?>>

                  - When an NSIS entity is protected by a backup entity, a 
                  synchronisation failure between the two entities needs to be 
                  detected prior to the protection switch. Since both entities will be 
                  NSIS speakers, this functionality could be implemented in the NSIS 
                  protocol. 
<< [georgios] Is this within  NSIS scope??>>

                  - In case of hop-by-hop routing of the NSIS signalling messages,  a 
                  failure detection mechanism is required in NSIS, even when the 
                  communication between NSIS entities is done with a reliable 
                  transport mechanism. This is caused by the fact that the transport 
                  signalling is terminated at each NSIS hop. This means that messages 
                  can be lost in an NSIS entity without the transport layer noticing 
                  it. 
                   
               6.2.    Failure notification 
                   
                  Any failure notification needed in the data plane, e.g. from lower 
                  layers, should normally be transparent to NSIS. An issue can arise 
                  for external failures. 
<<[georgios]  I do not understand this??>>

                  - If a failure of an external link or node is detected, a route 
                  change might be required in order to perform the recovery action. In 
                  that case, the failure should be notified to the QI if only per-
                  class state is kept in the QC. 

<<[georgios] do you mean here external to a NSIS domain. If yes, why the failure notification
  is only needed when per-class state is kept?  I think that this is independent of the 
type of reservation state. >>

                  For control plane failures, an issue might arise when only per-class 
                  state is kept. 

<< I do not agree with this, why?>>

                  - When only per-class state is kept, which might for instance occur 
                  in a QC in order to reduce information storage, the QC cannot 
                  reroute the LSP without a message from the QI. 
<< What do you mean with reroute! Is this within NSIS scope?>>

                  This means that this 
                  situation is only feasible in combination with soft-state. In that 
                  case, the QC needs to notify the QI about the failure in response to 
                 the next refresh message, that therefore needs to contain an 
                  identification of the QI. 
                  - The failing reservation may be part of a service consisting of 
                  multiple such flows. An obvious example is a bi-directional service. 
                  It would seem appropriate for each flow to be protected separately 
                  and for the service not to be impacted when the protection action is 
                  successful. However, it would make little sense to keep one 
                  direction up when the other goes down. This would imply notification 
                  of the QI/QR of the flows making up the service in case of 
                  unsuccessful protection. 

                   
               6.3.    Recovery action 
                   
                  The definition of a recovery strategy typically involves a decision 
                  on: 
                  - the scope of the protection action: this can be end-to-end path 
                  protection or local segment protection. We have already seen that 
                  the use of per-class state in the QC will prevent the application of 
                  local segment protection for external failures. 

<<[georgios] I do not understand this statement reagrding per class states>>

                  - the timing of the protection action: protection paths can be pre-
                  computed and pre-established in which case only a switch from 
                  primary to protection path is needed when a failure occurs. If the 
                  computation and/or establishment of the protection path is started 
                  after failure detection (rerouting), an additional recovery delay is 
                  introduced.

<<[georgios] is routing also included in the NSIS scope?>> 

                  - resource allocation on the protection paths: resource reservation 
                  on protection paths prior to failure is very inefficient and leads 
                  to excessive usage of network capacity for protection purposes. This 
                  can be avoided by not reserving capacity on the protection path. In 
                  this case, however, the availability of the protection path can not 
                  be guaranteed when a failure occurs. Alternatively, protection 
                  capacity can be shared between protection paths that are unlikely to 
                  fail simultaneously. For this, a limited number of failure scenarios 
                  (e.g. single node or single link failures) is assumed. Sharing 
                  protection capacity is highly complicated by the interdomain scope 
                  of the NSIS signalling because of the lack of detailed information 
                  on the failure states and the primary path. 
<< [georgios] Is this the only solution?>>

                  Recovery on the control plane may involve any of the following 
                  issues: 
                  - If a failure can only be solved by means of a change of the 
                  interdomain path of the flow, the QC might be required to force a 
                  route change from the QI. 
<< [georgios] Should this be done by NSIS; It is out of scope of NSIS >>

Note that this can occur without any data 
                  plane failure when the QC of a QoS domain fails and the QCs of 
                  neighbouring domains want to bring up peering relations with QCs 
                  that are not realted to the next hop on the data path. 
                  - When only per-class state is kept in a QC and a setup message is 
                  lost, retransmission of the setup message may cause duplicate 
                  reservations in QoS domains upstream of the point where the loss 
                  occurred. In case of soft-state, this situation will last for 
                  several refresh intervals. Note that the impact of this type of 
                  failure can be restricted by the use of reliable transport between 
                  NSIS entities. 
<<[georgios] It can be solved by using explicit release messages, see RMD frmaework>>

                  - In case of a QI or QR failure, the QC immediately following or 
                  preceding the failing entity may need to take up some proxy 
                  functionality for the failing entity. This functionality is optional 
                  for sending out teardown messages when soft-state is used, but 
                  mandatory for hard-state. It is also mandatory for replying to 
                  teardown messages, e.g. originating from the QI. 
                  - If the QoS Initiator does not receive a response on a signaling 
                  message within a certain time interval it will consider it as lost. 
                  It may decide to retransmit the signaling message. Therefore, the 
                  QoS Initiator must be able to make sure that the received ACK is not 
                  a delayed ACK from the previous transmitted signaling message. The 
                  signaling messages should therefore include a sequence number in 
                  order to associate a request (NEW, TEAR, REFRESH) with a response 
                  (ACK, NACK). 
<<[georgios] When soft state refresh is used, the TEAr messages do not neet to be authenticated>>

                  No issues are identified for the data plane. 
                   
                  For the control plane, repair detection will most likely occur by 
                  means of discovery messages initiated by the repaired NSIS entity. 
                  It is proposed that this discovery process could be a preliminary 
                  phase prior to the NSIS protocol and can therefore remain out of its 
                  scope. It is nevertheless crucial that such a discovery protocol is 
                  standardised in order to allow NSIS entities from different vendors 
                  to discover each other. 
<<[georgios] I think that is out of scope of NSIS>>
                   
               7.2.    Repair notification 
                   
                  Repair notification will normally take place by means of the IGP in 
                  the data plane. 
                   
                  In the control plane, repair notification may be needed when a QC 
                  has taken up some proxy functionality for the QI or QC. However, no 
                  special action should be needed for this since this information can 
                  be inferred from the repair detection. 
<<[georgios]  If repair detection is out of scope will this also be out of NSIS scope>>
                   
               7.3.    Reversion action 
                   
                  On the data plane, reversion is unavoidable when in-band signaling 
                  is used because the signaling messages will follow the new data 
                  plane route. This might cause issues because resources are typically 
                  not reserved on the new route, which might cause (temporary) QoS 
                  degradation on the new route. 

<<[georgios] What is the reversion action about? Is this related to the severe 
congestion problem  explained in the NSIS requirements draft?>>

                  In case of out-of-band signaling 
                  reversion may be avoided by means of route pinning. However, it will 
                  usually be advantageous to move to a more favourable route when one 
                  becomes available, both from a performance and resource utilisation 
                  point of view. In that case, the separation of data plane and 
                  control plane might help delaying the route change until sufficient 
                  resources are reserved on the new path. 
                   
                  From a control plane perspective, reversion makes little sense when 
                  backup NSIS entities are used. In that case, the reversion action 
                   will be limited to a synchronisation with the currently active NSIS 
                  entity. The repaired entity will then become the backup. 
<<[georgios] Is out of band out of NSIS scope?

Hi all,

As a result of discussions at the interim meeting we put together a
separate document on nsis resilience. It tries to list issues brought up at
the interim meeting together with some new ones in a broader general scope.
The document has finally made it through to the IETF repository. Some
people have expressed interest during the interim meeting, so hopefully the
document can help in structuring the discussion.

Best regards,
Sven

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.


     Title          : NSIS resilience analysis

The Next Steps in Signaling (NSIS) working group is chartered to
develop requirements, architecture and protocols for the next IETF
steps in signaling Quality-of-Service (QoS). Although the NSIS
protocol may eventually be used for other applications in addition
to QoS, it is expected that these, in much the same way as QoS, will
depend on predictable and high-availability service delivery. This
document attempts to identify, list and classify potential
resilience issues for the NSIS protocol.

Hi Sven 

I will only comment your draft starting from Section 5.
Main comment that I have is related to the fact  that you somehow
emphasise that the per-class states complicate the failure notification
and recovery issues, while I think that failure notification and recovery 
issues are independent of the type of these states. Another comment is related to the fact that 
you use a limted number of solutions, as the NSIS solutions, while these 
solutions might be just examples.

See more comments in line with your text (copied from your draft). 
My comments are given betrween <<>>.


Best regards,
Georgios

      5. Failure description 
                   
               5.1.    Internal data plane failures 
                   
                  Data plane failures can result from the breakdown or 
                  misconfiguration of data path entities such as routers or links. In 
                  case of a router, the failure can be due to a power outage, a 
                  software crash or hardware failure, e.g. interface cards. Link 
                  failures can be due to defective interface cards or to lower layer 
                  failures such as cable cuts. 
                  We make a distinction between data plane failures that are internal 
                  to a QoS domain and failures at the edges of a QoS domain (In case 
                  of a QoS domain consisting of a single router, an internal failure 
                  can occur when a component link in a link bundle attached to the 
                  router fails). Internal data plane failures should be solved locally 
                  and should not involve NSIS signalling when succesful.  

<< [georgios] What do you mean here? Do you mean that Internal data plane features should not 
involve NSIS 'signalling when sucessfull. Some of the NSIS modes of operation 
should be able to apply NSIS signaling for internal data plane failure.>>

                   
               5.2.    External data plane failures 
                   
                  Edge failures can for instance occur when an Autonomous System 
                  Border Router (ASBR) or the link between two ASBRs goes down. 
                  Recovery from this type of failures requires a coordinated action 
                  between two or more QoS domains and will therefore impact NSIS 
                  signalling. 
<<[georgios] probably you can find other terms than Autonomous System.>>


                   
               5.3.    Control plane failures 
                   
                  Two main types of control plane failures are distinguished: 
                  - Failure of an NSIS entity, e.g. a QI, QC or QR failure. If the QI 
                  is located at the end host, the end host is also considered to be 
                  part of the control plane of the NSIS signalling. 
                  - Loss of signalling messages between NSIS entities 

<<  [georgios] Please chnage terminology according to the new [hancock - framework] >>

                   
               5.4.    QoS degradation 
                   
                  A failure does not necessarily have to equal a loss of connectivity. 
                  In a QoS-enabled environment, a degradation of the perceived 
                  performance on the data path can also be categorised as a failure. 
                  It may be important to distinguish these failures from a 'hard' 
                  failure (involving loss of connectivity) in order to support 
                  hierarchical protection. 
                    
         << [georgios]  This is a policing matter! is not a failure>>          
                   
               6. Recovery issues 
                   
               6.1.    Failure detection 
                   
                  In the data plane, node failures can be detected from the absence of 
                  hello messages from the Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP). Link 
                  failure indications can usually be derived from of lower-layer 
                  failure indications (loss of light, loss of signal). In case of 
                  logical links, failure detection can be more problematic and must 
                  either take place via the hello protocol or via a specific OAM 
                  procedure. 

                   << [georgios]  Well other means could be used. Please do not restrict 
it only to this solution. Mention this as an example, please include other references, e.g., [RMD] >>

                  In the control plane, NSIS failure detection involves the following 
                  issues: 
                  - When the QI is different from the end host, QI and end host need 
                  to be aware of each others failures. Two factors can complicate this 
                  problem. First, the QI may keep hard-state related to the end-host 
                  requests because the overhead of refreshes is deemed excessive. In 
                  this case, state refreshes can not be used as a failure detection 
                  mechanism. Second, the end host is not necessarily an NSIS speaker, 
                  which means that the detection mechanism must be supported outside 
                  of NSIS signalling. One potential solution is the use of higher and 
                  or lower layer triggers in the QI. This means that the QI should 
                  have higher/lower layer information available. 
<< [georgios] is this related to out of band? Is this within NSIS scope?>>

                  - When an NSIS entity is protected by a backup entity, a 
                  synchronisation failure between the two entities needs to be 
                  detected prior to the protection switch. Since both entities will be 
                  NSIS speakers, this functionality could be implemented in the NSIS 
                  protocol. 
<< [georgios] Is this within  NSIS scope??>>

                  - In case of hop-by-hop routing of the NSIS signalling messages,  a 
                  failure detection mechanism is required in NSIS, even when the 
                  communication between NSIS entities is done with a reliable 
                  transport mechanism. This is caused by the fact that the transport 
                  signalling is terminated at each NSIS hop. This means that messages 
                  can be lost in an NSIS entity without the transport layer noticing 
                  it. 
                   
               6.2.    Failure notification 
                   
                  Any failure notification needed in the data plane, e.g. from lower 
                  layers, should normally be transparent to NSIS. An issue can arise 
                  for external failures. 
<<[georgios]  I do not understand this??>>

                  - If a failure of an external link or node is detected, a route 
                  change might be required in order to perform the recovery action. In 
                  that case, the failure should be notified to the QI if only per-
                  class state is kept in the QC. 

<<[georgios] do you mean here external to a NSIS domain. If yes, why the failure notification
  is only needed when per-class state is kept?  I think that this is independent of the 
type of reservation state. >>

                  For control plane failures, an issue might arise when only per-class 
                  state is kept. 

<< I do not agree with this, why?>>

                  - When only per-class state is kept, which might for instance occur 
                  in a QC in order to reduce information storage, the QC cannot 
                  reroute the LSP without a message from the QI. 
<< What do you mean with reroute! Is this within NSIS scope?>>

                  This means that this 
                  situation is only feasible in combination with soft-state. In that 
                  case, the QC needs to notify the QI about the failure in response to 
                 the next refresh message, that therefore needs to contain an 
                  identification of the QI. 
                  - The failing reservation may be part of a service consisting of 
                  multiple such flows. An obvious example is a bi-directional service. 
                  It would seem appropriate for each flow to be protected separately 
                  and for the service not to be impacted when the protection action is 
                  successful. However, it would make little sense to keep one 
                  direction up when the other goes down. This would imply notification 
                  of the QI/QR of the flows making up the service in case of 
                  unsuccessful protection. 

                   
               6.3.    Recovery action 
                   
                  The definition of a recovery strategy typically involves a decision 
                  on: 
                  - the scope of the protection action: this can be end-to-end path 
                  protection or local segment protection. We have already seen that 
                  the use of per-class state in the QC will prevent the application of 
                  local segment protection for external failures. 

<<[georgios] I do not understand this statement reagrding per class states>>

                  - the timing of the protection action: protection paths can be pre-
                  computed and pre-established in which case only a switch from 
                  primary to protection path is needed when a failure occurs. If the 
                  computation and/or establishment of the protection path is started 
                  after failure detection (rerouting), an additional recovery delay is 
                  introduced.

<<[georgios] is routing also included in the NSIS scope?>> 

                  - resource allocation on the protection paths: resource reservation 
                  on protection paths prior to failure is very inefficient and leads 
                  to excessive usage of network capacity for protection purposes. This 
                  can be avoided by not reserving capacity on the protection path. In 
                  this case, however, the availability of the protection path can not 
                  be guaranteed when a failure occurs. Alternatively, protection 
                  capacity can be shared between protection paths that are unlikely to 
                  fail simultaneously. For this, a limited number of failure scenarios 
                  (e.g. single node or single link failures) is assumed. Sharing 
                  protection capacity is highly complicated by the interdomain scope 
                  of the NSIS signalling because of the lack of detailed information 
                  on the failure states and the primary path. 
<< [georgios] Is this the only solution?>>

                  Recovery on the control plane may involve any of the following 
                  issues: 
                  - If a failure can only be solved by means of a change of the 
                  interdomain path of the flow, the QC might be required to force a 
                  route change from the QI. 
<< [georgios] Should this be done by NSIS; It is out of scope of NSIS >>

Note that this can occur without any data 
                  plane failure when the QC of a QoS domain fails and the QCs of 
                  neighbouring domains want to bring up peering relations with QCs 
                  that are not realted to the next hop on the data path. 
                  - When only per-class state is kept in a QC and a setup message is 
                  lost, retransmission of the setup message may cause duplicate 
                  reservations in QoS domains upstream of the point where the loss 
                  occurred. In case of soft-state, this situation will last for 
                  several refresh intervals. Note that the impact of this type of 
                  failure can be restricted by the use of reliable transport between 
                  NSIS entities. 
<<[georgios] It can be solved by using explicit release messages, see RMD frmaework>>

                  - In case of a QI or QR failure, the QC immediately following or 
                  preceding the failing entity may need to take up some proxy 
                  functionality for the failing entity. This functionality is optional 
                  for sending out teardown messages when soft-state is used, but 
                  mandatory for hard-state. It is also mandatory for replying to 
                  teardown messages, e.g. originating from the QI. 
                  - If the QoS Initiator does not receive a response on a signaling 
                  message within a certain time interval it will consider it as lost. 
                  It may decide to retransmit the signaling message. Therefore, the 
                  QoS Initiator must be able to make sure that the received ACK is not 
                  a delayed ACK from the previous transmitted signaling message. The 
                  signaling messages should therefore include a sequence number in 
                  order to associate a request (NEW, TEAR, REFRESH) with a response 
                  (ACK, NACK). 
<<[georgios] When soft state refresh is used, the TEAr messages do not neet to be authenticated>>
                   
               7. Reversion issues 
                   
               7.1.    Repair detection 
                   
                  No issues are identified for the data plane. 
                   
                  For the control plane, repair detection will most likely occur by 
                  means of discovery messages initiated by the repaired NSIS entity. 
                  It is proposed that this discovery process could be a preliminary 
                  phase prior to the NSIS protocol and can therefore remain out of its 
                  scope. It is nevertheless crucial that such a discovery protocol is 
                  standardised in order to allow NSIS entities from different vendors 
                  to discover each other. 
<<[georgios] I think that is out of scope of NSIS>>
                   
               7.2.    Repair notification 
                   
                  Repair notification will normally take place by means of the IGP in 
                  the data plane. 
                   
                  In the control plane, repair notification may be needed when a QC 
                  has taken up some proxy functionality for the QI or QC. However, no 
                  special action should be needed for this since this information can 
                  be inferred from the repair detection. 
<<[georgios]  If repair detection is out of scope will this also be out of NSIS scope>>
                   
               7.3.    Reversion action 
                   
                  On the data plane, reversion is unavoidable when in-band signaling 
                  is used because the signaling messages will follow the new data 
                  plane route. This might cause issues because resources are typically 
                  not reserved on the new route, which might cause (temporary) QoS 
                  degradation on the new route. 

<<[georgios] What is the reversion action about? Is this related to the severe 
congestion problem  explained in the NSIS requirements draft?>>

                  In case of out-of-band signaling 
                  reversion may be avoided by means of route pinning. However, it will 
                  usually be advantageous to move to a more favourable route when one 
                  becomes available, both from a performance and resource utilisation 
                  point of view. In that case, the separation of data plane and 
                  control plane might help delaying the route change until sufficient 
                  resources are reserved on the new path. 
                   
                  From a control plane perspective, reversion makes little sense when 
                  backup NSIS entities are used. In that case, the reversion action 
                   will be limited to a synchronisation with the currently active NSIS 
                  entity. The repaired entity will then become the backup. 
<<[georgios] Is out of band out of NSIS scope?

Hi all,

As a result of discussions at the interim meeting we put together a
separate document on nsis resilience. It tries to list issues brought up at
the interim meeting together with some new ones in a broader general scope.
The document has finally made it through to the IETF repository. Some
people have expressed interest during the interim meeting, so hopefully the
document can help in structuring the discussion.

Best regards,
Sven

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.


     Title          : NSIS resilience analysis
     Author(s) : S. Van den Bosch, M. Buchli
     Filename  : draft-vandenbosch-nsis-resilience-00.txt
     Pages          : 11
     Date      : 26-Jun-02

The Next Steps in Signaling (NSIS) working group is chartered to
develop requirements, architecture and protocols for the next IETF
steps in signaling Quality-of-Service (QoS). Although the NSIS
protocol may eventually be used for other applications in addition
to QoS, it is expected that these, in much the same way as QoS, will
depend on predictable and high-availability service delivery. This
document attempts to identify, list and classify potential
resilience issues for the NSIS protocol.

Hi Robert,

Q1: "Node" used in your terminology can be a router, an end host or a server, right? In the case of distributed RMF, must each node have the resource management function in a NSIS domain?

Q2: The RMF is responsible for all network provisioning and resource allocation  functions, and "some" of the state management is an RMF responsibility. How about the "other" of the state management, and it is refered to the state management mechanism of NSIS related with "Refresh" message? If so, what relationship between these two parts of state management? Is it out of the scope of NSIS? I hope answer is no.

[reh] that's one reasonable way for it to work. see 4.4 about general state management issues; there are several different sorts of state and several different ways to manage them. and some of the state management is an RMF responsibility.

[reh] that's a good question. however, in our framework we tried hard to avoid saying that NSIS would work in particular ways in particular network parts. (ideally, I think there should be implementation and deployment flexibility within the protocol to allow this.)

Hi 

In case of distributed RMF, each RMF function may be co-located 
(included) within each node that uses NSIS signaling.
Each node might be NI, NF or NR.
Best Regards,
Georgios

Hi Zhigang,

Please see inline below.

ps apologies about my email disclaimer, it's not entirely under my control to fix it, though we're doing what we can. i am aware that i am sending this email to a public mailing list ...

[reh] yes, in the broadest sense ('node' is a fancy name for 'box'). if you respect the 'on-path' restriction, a node that processes NSIS signalling must be on the data path, which probably rules out the 'server' case.

> In the case of distributed RMF, must 
> each node have the resource management function in a NSIS domain?

[reh] if you have a distributed approach to resource management, i guess we would typically expect most nodes would have a resource management responsibility, but there's no requirement for every node to do something with resource management. in particular:
1) not every node has to process NSIS messages (cf. RSVP operation over non-RSVP clouds)
2) even if a node does process NSIS messages, it might do so for reasons not associated with resource management.

[reh] this is a hard question to answer, and a hard question in general.

1. It's clear that to do resource management, you need to store some state information. That information might be at the flow level, or some 'resource class' level, or something else. Because the state you need to store depends on the resource you are trying to manage and the precision with which you need to manage it, we don't think NSIS can define how this is done.

2. You also need state to make a protocol operate correctly. This could include all (or none) of:
*) information about how to reverse-path route messages for a flow
*) information about who to send an acknowledgement to and when
*) information about when to send a refresh message
*) information about who was authenticated when a reservation was made
*) and so on
This is all in NSIS scope to worry about. Most of it is per-flow.

3. The relationship between these two types of state is something we discussed, but only in outline. I think a basic design goal could be stated as:
"It should be possible to use [a|the] NSIS protocol in such a way that it only requires the minimum of state storage, in particular no more than the resource management mechanism that it is supporting." It's then (I think) mainly a job for the implementor to do both aspects of state management in an economical way (in particular, without duplication). So, I think we need to consider the possible interactions between the different parts of state management, and make sure they get reflected as goals for NSIS design in terms of flexibility and general usefulness of the protocol, but without defining details of exactly how the different types of state interact.

This is actually a special case of a more general issue. Look also at draft-braden-2level-signal-arch-00.txt where there is the related question of the split between CSTP and ALSP. The general point is that we almost certainly can't have a pure structure of independent layers (I would expect the ALSP-like upper layer to hook into the operation of the lower layer quite intimately rather than the other way round, but that's more of a protocol design issue). The state management issue is just one aspect of this.

So, I think the answer to your question is "yes and no" (if you see what I mean...)

Hi,

"NSIS Entity (NE) - the function within a 'NODE' which implements an NSIS protocol. "

I refered to the "NODE" in the above definition, and can it be a router, a host, a server or whatever a new concept thing? In ohter words, may NI, NF and NR be a router, a server or a host?

Is there any special requirements on network equipments in a existing netwok domain if it will become a NSIS domain?

Hi 

In case of distributed RMF, each RMF function may be co-located 
(included) within each node that uses NSIS signaling.
Each node might be NI, NF or NR.
Best Regards,
Georgios

Hi Robert,

Q1: "Node" used in your terminology can be a router, an end host or a server, right? In the case of distributed RMF, must each node have the resource management function in a NSIS domain?

Q2: The RMF is responsible for all network provisioning and resource allocation  functions, and "some" of the state management is an RMF responsibility. How about the "other" of the state management, and it is refered to the state management mechanism of NSIS related with "Refresh" message? If so, what relationship between these two parts of state management? Is it out of the scope of NSIS? I hope answer is no.

[reh] basically yes, from a topological ("where the messages go") point of view.

[reh] that's one reasonable way for it to work. see 4.4 about general state management issues; there are several different sorts of state and several different ways to manage them. and some of the state management is an RMF responsibility.

[reh] that's a good question. however, in our framework we tried hard to avoid saying that NSIS would work in particular ways in particular network parts. (ideally, I think there should be implementation and deployment flexibility within the protocol to allow this.)

hi,

any node which processes NSIS messages has an NE inside it which does =
that processing. we have given NEs different names depending on what =
role they are playing within the protocol.

if you accept that NSIS messages have to follow the data path, that =
restricts what sorts of nodes can have NEs inside them. you can easily =
think of scenarios where NI/NF/NR could be in router or hosts, but not =
servers. (although I suppose you could backhaul NSIS messages to a =
central server if you wanted to, we just aren't defining a backhaul =
mechanism to do this.)

i don't believe there are any special requirements on existing network =
equipments to use NSIS in a domain (or rather, we have requirements - i =
think - to allow incremental deployment and use of NSIS). obviously, to =
use NSIS in the first place, you'll need to have _some_ equipment that =
processes the messages.

(terminology is never easy. suggestions are welcome.)

cheers,

robert h.

ps apologies about my email disclaimer, it's not entirely under my =
control to fix it, though we're doing what we can. i am aware that i am =
sending this email to a public mailing list ...

Hi Robert,

I am more confused about 'node' is for 'box', but what in the box, a part of netwok or a whole network or whatever? Does the data pass through the box? How to understand the data path, based on per-router or per-network?  Is NSIS Framework independent of the true networks and is it only abstract concept over the different environments? I cannot image how to deploy it in the future.

BR/Kan Zhigang

[reh] yes, in the broadest sense ('node' is a fancy name for 'box'). if you respect the 'on-path' restriction, a node that processes NSIS signalling must be on the data path, which probably rules out the 'server' case.

> In the case of distributed RMF, must 
> each node have the resource management function in a NSIS domain?

[reh] if you have a distributed approach to resource management, i guess we would typically expect most nodes would have a resource management responsibility, but there's no requirement for every node to do something with resource management. in particular:
1) not every node has to process NSIS messages (cf. RSVP operation over non-RSVP clouds)
2) even if a node does process NSIS messages, it might do so for reasons not associated with resource management.

[reh] this is a hard question to answer, and a hard question in general.

1. It's clear that to do resource management, you need to store some state information. That information might be at the flow level, or some 'resource class' level, or something else. Because the state you need to store depends on the resource you are trying to manage and the precision with which you need to manage it, we don't think NSIS can define how this is done.

2. You also need state to make a protocol operate correctly. This could include all (or none) of:
*) information about how to reverse-path route messages for a flow
*) information about who to send an acknowledgement to and when
*) information about when to send a refresh message
*) information about who was authenticated when a reservation was made
*) and so on
This is all in NSIS scope to worry about. Most of it is per-flow.

3. The relationship between these two types of state is something we discussed, but only in outline. I think a basic design goal could be stated as:
"It should be possible to use [a|the] NSIS protocol in such a way that it only requires the minimum of state storage, in particular no more than the resource management mechanism that it is supporting." It's then (I think) mainly a job for the implementor to do both aspects of state management in an economical way (in particular, without duplication). So, I think we need to consider the possible interactions between the different parts of state management, and make sure they get reflected as goals for NSIS design in terms of flexibility and general usefulness of the protocol, but without defining details of exactly how the different types of state interact.

This is actually a special case of a more general issue. Look also at draft-braden-2level-signal-arch-00.txt where there is the related question of the split between CSTP and ALSP. The general point is that we almost certainly can't have a pure structure of independent layers (I would expect the ALSP-like upper layer to hook into the operation of the lower layer quite intimately rather than the other way round, but that's more of a protocol design issue). The state management issue is just one aspect of this.

So, I think the answer to your question is "yes and no" (if you see what I mean...)

Hi Zhigang,

Apologies for maybe informal language. By 'box' I really mean typically =
a physical thing you plug into a power supply, with wires carrying =
packets into and out of it. So, usually it's a host or a router. If =
signalling only follows the data path (which is considered at the =
router level, not the network level), the only relevant nodes can be =
the data flow endpoints, and the only relevant routers can be the =
routers the flow passes through.

We've tried to describe things in terms of signalling going between =
signalling entities rather than hosts/routers and so on; one of the =
goals of this is to aim for concepts and terminology to describe the =
signalling that are re-usable if/when we subsequently think about =
signalling paths that are less constrained.

It may be (I get the impression) that the level of abstraction in the =
framework makes it hard to get a grip on. I'm not sure what would be =
the best way to handle this (maybe some concrete example scenarios or =
something).

We didn't want to make all the definitions very concrete, since that =
implies building in assumptions about particular application domains. =
Specifically, we have two potential degrees of freedom about NSIS =
applicability which we've tried to reflect by using more abstract =
language:
*) what sort of resources are signalled for
*) what sort of signalling paths are traversed
Currently, the first is in scope and the second not. I hope we can =
avoid too long confusion about the node/entity/network/whatever issue, =
because if we can't, we'll probably be encouraged to re-write =
everything in terms of routers and hosts, which will make any future =
extension to other cases much harder.

Cheers,

Robert H.

ps apologies about my email disclaimer, it's not entirely under my =
control to fix it, though we're doing what we can. i am aware that i am =
sending this email to a public mailing list ...

For IPv6, RFC 2460 defines the following terms:

   node        - a device that implements IPv6.

   router      - a node that forwards IPv6 packets not explicitly
                 addressed to itself.  [See Note below].

   host        - any node that is not a router.  [See Note below].

   Note: it is possible, though unusual, for a device with multiple
   interfaces to be configured to forward non-self-destined packets
   arriving from some set (fewer than all) of its interfaces, and to
   discard non-self-destined packets arriving from its other interfaces.
   Such a device must obey the protocol requirements for routers when
   receiving packets from, and interacting with neighbors over, the
   former (forwarding) interfaces.  It must obey the protocol
   requirements for hosts when receiving packets from, and interacting
   with neighbors over, the latter (non-forwarding) interfaces.

For me, this is the easier way to think about NSIS entities.  More specifically,
An NSIS entitity as most likely a protocol instance of the NSIS protocol
in a node.  Under most circumstances, I don't see a single NSIS entity 
that would be distributed over multiple nodes.

I would imagine that NSIS entities would most likely be in the ingress
and egress points of an administrative domain, for example.

John

Hi Robert,

Till now, I understood the definition of NE. Thank you. :-) It is right that we must have the common understanding of the terms, so we can continue the discussion further.

One more thing, If one/more router(s) on the data path does not support RMF (as you said: if you have a distributed approach to resource management, i guess we would typically expect most nodes would have a resource management responsibility, but there's no requirement for every node to do something with resource management.), how about in this case? Can the QoS of data on this path be affected by these routers?

Next I would like to discuss the relationship of modes of NSIS protocol operation such as how the end-to-end, edge-to-edge, and end-to-edge signaling take effects when the per-flow/per-class-flow traffic is initiated by a host.

Nice weekend.

BR/Kan Zhigang

Hi Zhigang,

If you have an NSIS-unaware router on the path, in the time honoured =
phrase, "your mileage may vary". There are two aspects:
*) as a protocol, NSIS has to operate correctly even if some =
intermediate nodes are not NSIS aware. this has quite significant =
implications for security aspects, for example.=20
*) if an intermediate node is NSIS unaware, or is NSIS aware but =
doesn't do any management for some particular resource, then there's =
nothing NSIS can do directly to help the resource management at that =
node. That doesn't stop you using some other technique to control the =
resource at that node (some variant of SNMP or COPS or RMD or =
whatever), but so far as NSIS is concerned, all of that would be hidden =
inside your RMF implementation.

i'll look forward to the 'modes of operation' questions!

cheers,

robert h.

ps apologies about my email disclaimer, it's not entirely under my =
control to fix it, though we're doing what we can. i am aware that i am =
sending this email to a public mailing list ...

I actually think that it is practical that intermediate routers
are NSIS-unware.  The most important parts of an NSIS network
would be the ingress & egress points.  Assuming one did a
competent job of network configuration & provisioning, this may
be enough in many cases.

Also, it would be entirely reasonable to (and entirely out of scope
of NSIS to standardize) use some protocol for communicating with resource
management, such as a bandwidth broken, if this was something
that you wanted to do.

John

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


	Title		: Consideration of RSVP-TE Extension for Metro Network
	Author(s)	: J. Choi, Y. Yoo
	Filename	: draft-choi-metro-signaling-00.txt
	Pages		: 8
	Date		: 27-Jun-02
	
This draft mentions the bandwidth reservation in Metro Network. At 
first, this lists the issues that should be generally checked for 
bandwidth reservation, and is intended to point out RSVP-TE for Metro 
Network. Moreover, this focuses on consideration issues to understand 
whether the existing RSVP-TE supports the demands for bandwidth 
reservation in Metro Network.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


	Title		: On path and off path signaling for NSIS
	Author(s)	: A. Couturier, O. Schelen
	Filename	: draft-schelen-nsis-opopsig-00.txt
	Pages		: 10
	Date		: 27-Jun-02
	
The NSIS Work group will develop the requirements, architecture and 
protocols for the next IETF steps on signaling. Two approaches about the
signaling model have been discussed: on-path and off-path. This draft 
provides a conceptual comparison between on-path and off-path signaling 
together with reasons for why an NSIS protocol should be designed to 
support both cases.
The collection of data objects to be carried by the protocol should 
basically be the same in both cases and will evolve over time as new 
usages for NSIS protocol are identified. The differences between the 
two flavors of this NSIS protocol are then explained.

	Title		: Middlebox Signaling in a NSIS framework

	Date		: 27-Jun-02
	
The Next Steps in Signaling (NSIS) working group has started looking 
into signaling for QoS in various cases. In this draft, we show the 
similarities and differences of signaling for QoS versus signaling 
for NAT and firewall traversal. It seams that there are quite a 
number of similarities, which might make sense to use a potential 
NSIS protocol for NAT and firewall traversal as well.

Hi Cedric and Hemant,

I understand from the mail discussions and especially from the
interim meeting, that the WG is encouraged to take into 
consideration the requirements formulated in : 

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/
draft-ietf-mobileip-qos-requirements-02.txt

From that perspective, I think that your draft is an
important input and can evolve to a good design base.
However, I also understand that the group is
in the process of discussing the requirements and the framework
drafts, so I am not sure whether starting discussing this
draft is appropriate right now. 

Anyway, here comes a set of comments from my perspective.

Best regards /Gabor

---------------------------------------------------------------
1
I agree that we need to consider a QoS signaling that works
in a mobile/wireless environment and that the wireless bandwidth
economy must be an important factor. From this point of view,
I would like to see a more clear discussion on the requirements
that this draft provides the solution for. Clearly, we have 
at least two important input documents: the NSIS requirement
doc and the mobileip-qos-requirements doc. I think that your 
framework draft should try to identify which of these requirements
it considers important and which new ones it adds to those.

2
I also agree that we need to differentiate between the "edge" 
signaling, the context transfer signaling and the 
"data path signaling". We need to be careful with statements
like "lightweight signaling mechanism required over the
wireless link". We indeed want to minimize both 
the number and the length of signaling messages over the air
(so in that sense it should be lightweight), but we do
want to provide enough information to efficiently configure
wireless resources, often per user flow and per-flow
state maintenance with support of bi-directional assymmetric
reservation, etc.
I think that the draft should define what is meant by "wireless
bandwidth economy" and discuss more the requirements 
specifically on the edge signaling.

3
The draft talks about the negotiation procedures (in 4.2).
In my opinion the draft should identify the requirement more
clearly, preferably with a reference to either the NSIS or
the mobile IP requirement draft. Is there a difference between
negotiation (which takes place upon QoS initiation time) and 
QoS adaptation signaling which may take place upon hand-over ?

4
I am not sure that it is meaningful at this point to start
discussing specific solution approaches. You seem to propose
to use ICMP as a design base for both edge signaling and for
context transfer (AR to AR). At least for the edge signaling,
we need to consider the edge specific requirements before
we start discussing what existing or new protocol can be the
design base for that.

5
You mention RFC2998 as one of your basic references, which I 
think is a very useful RFC in this context as well. 
However, from 
the draft it is not clear how you use that in the proposed
architecture. (Since ICMP seems to be the base and not RSVP.)

6
You identify QoS release as a necessary functionality.
Here there is a need to identify if the protocol should
support soft state (in which case this explicit QoS release
may not be necessary) or not. 

7
As a minor detail issue,
I see some problems with the definition of the cross-over router.
I believe that your definition in 4.1.3 would identify 
several routers as cross-over router, whereas later on
it seems that only the first merging point is really used
as cross-over router. By the way, the notion of cross-over
router in my opinion should be introduced when you present
the whole model around the figure in Section 1, but this
is a presentation issue.

Hi Sven

I will only comment your draft starting from Section 5.
Main comment that I have is related to the fact  that you somehow
emphasise that the per-class states complicate the failure notification
and recovery issues, while I think that failure notification and recovery
issues are independent of the type of these states.

[sven] In general, per-class state has the effect of losing the link
between a certain initiator and its associated reservation. As such, it
causes an issues for failure notification because of the absence of state
information on where to send the notification.

Another comment is related to the fact that
you use a limted number of solutions, as the NSIS solutions, while these
solutions might be just examples.

[sven] That is true. Please feel free to propose other examples that you
feel might raise the same or other issues regarding resilience in nsis.

See more comments in line with your text (copied from your draft).
My comments are given betrween <<>>.


Best regards,
Georgios

------------
      5. Failure description

               5.1.    Internal data plane failures

                  Data plane failures can result from the breakdown or
                  misconfiguration of data path entities such as routers or
links. In
                  case of a router, the failure can be due to a power
outage, a
                  software crash or hardware failure, e.g. interface cards.
Link
                  failures can be due to defective interface cards or to
lower layer
                  failures such as cable cuts.
                  We make a distinction between data plane failures that
are internal
                  to a QoS domain and failures at the edges of a QoS domain
(In case
                  of a QoS domain consisting of a single router, an
internal failure
                  can occur when a component link in a link bundle attached
to the
                  router fails). Internal data plane failures should be
solved locally
                  and should not involve NSIS signalling when succesful.

<< [georgios] What do you mean here? Do you mean that Internal data plane
features should not
involve NSIS 'signalling when sucessfull. Some of the NSIS modes of
operation
should be able to apply NSIS signaling for internal data plane failure.>>

[sven] The idea here is that an NE 'manages' somehow a set of 'resources'.
If an error occurs and a solution can be provided by the same entity then
it is proposed that nsis signalling is not affected. If the error is such
that the NE cannot handle it alone then nsis resilience should kick in. The
rationale is to avoid unnecessary failure notifications.


               5.2.    External data plane failures

                  Edge failures can for instance occur when an Autonomous
System
                  Border Router (ASBR) or the link between two ASBRs goes
down.
                  Recovery from this type of failures requires a
coordinated action
                  between two or more QoS domains and will therefore impact
NSIS
                  signalling.
<<[georgios] probably you can find other terms than Autonomous System.>>

[sven] resource domain? I gues QoS domain is not even valid anymore. I
agree by the way that I should update terminology according to the
framework draft. They were developed in parallel, so it was difficult to do
that in this version.



               5.3.    Control plane failures

                  Two main types of control plane failures are
distinguished:
                  - Failure of an NSIS entity, e.g. a QI, QC or QR failure.
If the QI
                  is located at the end host, the end host is also
considered to be
                  part of the control plane of the NSIS signalling.
                  - Loss of signalling messages between NSIS entities

<<  [georgios] Please chnage terminology according to the new [hancock -
framework] >>

[sven] see above.


               5.4.    QoS degradation

                  A failure does not necessarily have to equal a loss of
connectivity.
                  In a QoS-enabled environment, a degradation of the
perceived
                  performance on the data path can also be categorised as a
failure.
                  It may be important to distinguish these failures from a
'hard'
                  failure (involving loss of connectivity) in order to
support
                  hierarchical protection.

         << [georgios]  This is a policing matter! is not a failure>>

[sven] Not necessarily I think. Suppose you have a bundled link of which
one component link fails. In that case the BW on that link is reduced and
the QoS of flows on it might be affected. So you might need to move traffic
away from it. However, when a cable cut occurs on this new path, you might
be tempted to move the traffic back, because connectivity with degraded QoS
might be preferable to no connectivity at all.

               6. Recovery issues

               6.1.    Failure detection

                  In the data plane, node failures can be detected from the
absence of
                  hello messages from the Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP).
Link
                  failure indications can usually be derived from of
lower-layer
                  failure indications (loss of light, loss of signal). In
case of
                  logical links, failure detection can be more problematic
and must
                  either take place via the hello protocol or via a
specific OAM
                  procedure.

                   << [georgios]  Well other means could be used. Please do
not restrict
it only to this solution. Mention this as an example, please include other
references, e.g., [RMD] >>

[sven] OK, I will do that. Can you provide a pointer to the section in the
doc you mention?

                  In the control plane, NSIS failure detection involves the
following
                  issues:
                  - When the QI is different from the end host, QI and end
host need
                  to be aware of each others failures. Two factors can
complicate this
                  problem. First, the QI may keep hard-state related to the
end-host
                  requests because the overhead of refreshes is deemed
excessive. In
                  this case, state refreshes can not be used as a failure
detection
                  mechanism. Second, the end host is not necessarily an
NSIS speaker,
                  which means that the detection mechanism must be
supported outside
                  of NSIS signalling. One potential solution is the use of
higher and
                  or lower layer triggers in the QI. This means that the QI
should
                  have higher/lower layer information available.
<< [georgios] is this related to out of band? Is this within NSIS scope?>>

[sven] The point-of-view of the draft is the same as that of the framework:
we will not work on solutions for out-of-band but document issues for the
complete problem space.

                  - When an NSIS entity is protected by a backup entity, a
                  synchronisation failure between the two entities needs to
be
                  detected prior to the protection switch. Since both
entities will be
                  NSIS speakers, this functionality could be implemented in
the NSIS
                  protocol.
<< [georgios] Is this within  NSIS scope??>>
[sven] I think so. The NE can be in-band.

                  - In case of hop-by-hop routing of the NSIS signalling
messages,  a
                  failure detection mechanism is required in NSIS, even
when the
                  communication between NSIS entities is done with a
reliable
                  transport mechanism. This is caused by the fact that the
transport
                  signalling is terminated at each NSIS hop. This means
that messages
                  can be lost in an NSIS entity without the transport layer
noticing
                  it.

               6.2.    Failure notification

                  Any failure notification needed in the data plane, e.g.
from lower
                  layers, should normally be transparent to NSIS. An issue
can arise
                  for external failures.
<<[georgios]  I do not understand this??>>

[sven] This refers to the case where you e.g. detect a IP link failure
based on physical layer notification.

                  - If a failure of an external link or node is detected, a
route
                  change might be required in order to perform the recovery
action. In
                  that case, the failure should be notified to the QI if
only per-
                  class state is kept in the QC.

<<[georgios] do you mean here external to a NSIS domain. If yes, why the
failure notification
  is only needed when per-class state is kept?  I think that this is
independent of the
type of reservation state. >>

[sven] well, if per-flow state is kept, the node that detects the failure
can take action itself and doesn't need to notify the QI. Otherwise, it has
to wait for the next refresh, which has to come from the QI, notify and let
the QI take action.

                  For control plane failures, an issue might arise when
only per-class
                  state is kept.

<< I do not agree with this, why?>>

                  - When only per-class state is kept, which might for
instance occur
                  in a QC in order to reduce information storage, the QC
cannot
                  reroute the LSP without a message from the QI.
<< What do you mean with reroute! Is this within NSIS scope?>>

[sven] it cannot link the failure to the affected flows.

                  This means that this
                  situation is only feasible in combination with
soft-state. In that
                  case, the QC needs to notify the QI about the failure in
response to
                 the next refresh message, that therefore needs to contain
an
                  identification of the QI.
                  - The failing reservation may be part of a service
consisting of
                  multiple such flows. An obvious example is a
bi-directional service.
                  It would seem appropriate for each flow to be protected
separately
                  and for the service not to be impacted when the
protection action is
                  successful. However, it would make little sense to keep
one
                  direction up when the other goes down. This would imply
notification
                  of the QI/QR of the flows making up the service in case
of
                  unsuccessful protection.


               6.3.    Recovery action

                  The definition of a recovery strategy typically involves
a decision
                  on:
                  - the scope of the protection action: this can be
end-to-end path
                  protection or local segment protection. We have already
seen that
                  the use of per-class state in the QC will prevent the
application of
                  local segment protection for external failures.

<<[georgios] I do not understand this statement reagrding per class
states>>

[sven] I need to think about this one. We can probably discuss more in
Japan but I will try to come back on this one on the list before that.

                  - the timing of the protection action: protection paths
can be pre-
                  computed and pre-established in which case only a switch
from
                  primary to protection path is needed when a failure
occurs. If the
                  computation and/or establishment of the protection path
is started
                  after failure detection (rerouting), an additional
recovery delay is
                  introduced.

<<[georgios] is routing also included in the NSIS scope?>

                  - resource allocation on the protection paths: resource
reservation
                  on protection paths prior to failure is very inefficient
and leads
                  to excessive usage of network capacity for protection
purposes. This
                  can be avoided by not reserving capacity on the
protection path. In
                  this case, however, the availability of the protection
path can not
                  be guaranteed when a failure occurs. Alternatively,
protection
                  capacity can be shared between protection paths that are
unlikely to
                  fail simultaneously. For this, a limited number of
failure scenarios
                  (e.g. single node or single link failures) is assumed.
Sharing
                  protection capacity is highly complicated by the
interdomain scope
                  of the NSIS signalling because of the lack of detailed
information
                  on the failure states and the primary path.
<< [georgios] Is this the only solution?>>

[sven] Probably not. Can you rpovide me with pointers to other solutions?

                  Recovery on the control plane may involve any of the
following
                  issues:
                  - If a failure can only be solved by means of a change of
the
                  interdomain path of the flow, the QC might be required to
force a
                  route change from the QI.
<< [georgios] Should this be done by NSIS; It is out of scope of NSIS >>

[sven] If it is a required action of the QC, it is in the scope of nsis.

Note that this can occur without any data
                  plane failure when the QC of a QoS domain fails and the
QCs of
                  neighbouring domains want to bring up peering relations
with QCs
                  that are not realted to the next hop on the data path.
                  - When only per-class state is kept in a QC and a setup
message is
                  lost, retransmission of the setup message may cause
duplicate
                  reservations in QoS domains upstream of the point where
the loss
                  occurred. In case of soft-state, this situation will last
for
                  several refresh intervals. Note that the impact of this
type of
                  failure can be restricted by the use of reliable
transport between
                  NSIS entities.
<<[georgios] It can be solved by using explicit release messages, see RMD
frmaework>>

[sven] I know about explicit release but that is when you are aware of the
double reservation. This is an example where you are not, and hence will
not react to it.

                  - In case of a QI or QR failure, the QC immediately
following or
                  preceding the failing entity may need to take up some
proxy
                  functionality for the failing entity. This functionality
is optional
                  for sending out teardown messages when soft-state is
used, but
                  mandatory for hard-state. It is also mandatory for
replying to
                  teardown messages, e.g. originating from the QI.
                  - If the QoS Initiator does not receive a response on a
signaling
                  message within a certain time interval it will consider
it as lost.
                  It may decide to retransmit the signaling message.
Therefore, the
                  QoS Initiator must be able to make sure that the received
ACK is not
                  a delayed ACK from the previous transmitted signaling
message. The
                  signaling messages should therefore include a sequence
number in
                  order to associate a request (NEW, TEAR, REFRESH) with a
response
                  (ACK, NACK).
<<[georgios] When soft state refresh is used, the TEAr messages do not neet
to be authenticated>>

[sven] You mean not acknowledged, because they time out anyhow. That is
true.

               7. Reversion issues

               7.1.    Repair detection

                  No issues are identified for the data plane.

                  For the control plane, repair detection will most likely
occur by
                  means of discovery messages initiated by the repaired
NSIS entity.
                  It is proposed that this discovery process could be a
preliminary
                  phase prior to the NSIS protocol and can therefore remain
out of its
                  scope. It is nevertheless crucial that such a discovery
protocol is
                  standardised in order to allow NSIS entities from
different vendors
                  to discover each other.
<<[georgios] I think that is out of scope of NSIS>>

               7.2.    Repair notification

                  Repair notification will normally take place by means of
the IGP in
                  the data plane.

                  In the control plane, repair notification may be needed
when a QC
                  has taken up some proxy functionality for the QI or QC.
However, no
                  special action should be needed for this since this
information can
                  be inferred from the repair detection.
<<[georgios]  If repair detection is out of scope will this also be out of
NSIS scope>>

               7.3.    Reversion action

                  On the data plane, reversion is unavoidable when in-band
signaling
                  is used because the signaling messages will follow the
new data
                  plane route. This might cause issues because resources
are typically
                  not reserved on the new route, which might cause
(temporary) QoS
                  degradation on the new route.

<<[georgios] What is the reversion action about? Is this related to the
severe
congestion problem  explained in the NSIS requirements draft?>>

[sven] Reversion refers to what happens when something that failed comes up
again.

                  In case of out-of-band signaling
                  reversion may be avoided by means of route pinning.
However, it will
                  usually be advantageous to move to a more favourable
route when one
                  becomes available, both from a performance and resource
utilisation
                  point of view. In that case, the separation of data plane
and
                  control plane might help delaying the route change until
sufficient
                  resources are reserved on the new path.

                  From a control plane perspective, reversion makes little
sense when
                  backup NSIS entities are used. In that case, the
reversion action
                   will be limited to a synchronisation with the currently
active NSIS
                  entity. The repaired entity will then become the backup.
<<[georgios] Is out of band out of NSIS scope?

[sven] As I said, nsis will not work on out-of-band solutions for now. It
was the agreement that we should document these issues.

Hi all,

As a result of discussions at the interim meeting we put together a
separate document on nsis resilience. It tries to list issues brought up at
the interim meeting together with some new ones in a broader general scope.
The document has finally made it through to the IETF repository. Some
people have expressed interest during the interim meeting, so hopefully the
document can help in structuring the discussion.

Best regards,
Sven

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.


     Title          : NSIS resilience analysis
     Author(s) : S. Van den Bosch, M. Buchli
     Filename  : draft-vandenbosch-nsis-resilience-00.txt
     Pages          : 11
     Date      : 26-Jun-02

The Next Steps in Signaling (NSIS) working group is chartered to
develop requirements, architecture and protocols for the next IETF
steps in signaling Quality-of-Service (QoS). Although the NSIS
protocol may eventually be used for other applications in addition
to QoS, it is expected that these, in much the same way as QoS, will
depend on predictable and high-availability service delivery. This
document attempts to identify, list and classify potential
resilience issues for the NSIS protocol.

I think for now, we could call it an NSIS domain.

One of our goal was to state that a 'one size fits all' solution cannot 
solve all the requirements
in these drafts. There are then two approaches: one is to weed out 
requirements until it's
solvable with one protocol. To us, it would bring a compromised solution 
as contradictory
requirements are necessary in the different scenarios that the signaling 
encounters during the
lifetime of a flow. The other approach is what we wanted to underline: 
that some existing tools might be combined into a signaling toolkit that 
would meet the requirements.
To answer your point: we should definitely write up an analysis on how 
our proposal answers the requirements you mention. We will do it as we 
enter design phase.

We do not discuss much QoS initiation, as we assume that some 'general 
signaling' such as RSVP establishes the QoS in the first place. So the 
negotation is really what you name QoS adaptation signaling. We should 
add some emphasis to this.

Let me explain a bit here: the design base for edge signaling and 
context transfer is
really 'A context transfer protocol for seamless mobility', 
draft-koodli-seamoby-ctv6-03.txt.
Earlier version of draft-koodli-seamoby-ctv6 were ICMP based. However, 
it is more general in this latest version, and not necessarily ICMP. As 
a consequence, we mention ICMP
as a possible illustration. The main point is that QoS signaling is 
redundant with context transfer, one object being transferred being QoS 
context, and that CT signaling will do the job for the MN to AR QoS 
signaling.
We will clarify this point.

The architecture of rfc2998 is that of heterogeneous nodes on the path, 
some controlling the resource, and some forwarding traffic. This is 
inside the network, and orthogonal in a way to the edge signaling. What 
we meant by citing rfc2998 was that we were dealing with
'in-band signaling so a subset of the routers on the path'.

Good point; Hemant might correct me, but I don't think we discussed it?

some existing tools might be combined into a signaling toolkit that would
meet the requirements. <br>
To answer your point: we should definitely write up an analysis on how our
proposal answers the requirements you mention. We will do it as we enter
design phase.<br>

We do not discuss much QoS initiation, as we assume that some 'general signaling'

Let me explain a bit here: the design base for edge signaling and context

really 'A context transfer protocol for seamless mobility', draft-koodli-seamoby-ctv6-03.txt.<br>
Earlier version of draft-koodli-seamoby-ctv6 were ICMP based. However, it
is more general in this latest version, and not necessarily ICMP. As a consequence,
we mention ICMP<br>
as a possible illustration. The main point is that QoS signaling is redundant
with context transfer, one object being transferred being QoS context, and
that CT signaling will do the job for the MN to AR QoS signaling. <br>
We will clarify this point.<br>

The architecture of rfc2998 is that of heterogeneous nodes on the path, some

Thanks for the comments. Please see inline:

Hi Cedric and Hemant,

I understand from the mail discussions and especially from the
interim meeting, that the WG is encouraged to take into 
consideration the requirements formulated in : 

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/
draft-ietf-mobileip-qos-requirements-02.txt

From that perspective, I think that your draft is an
important input and can evolve to a good design base.
However, I also understand that the group is
in the process of discussing the requirements and the framework
drafts, so I am not sure whether starting discussing this
draft is appropriate right now.

[Hemant] Yes, NSIS is indeed in requirements and framework phase. Please note that the MIP QoS solution in our draft has good compatibility with current NSIS framework document. Some highlights are: in-band signaling, use of optimized solution modules for different parts of network (horizontal signaling and vertical signaling with respect to handoff) as well as specific items for MIP mentioned in the framework document. So, I think that it might be worthwhile to have some discussion (at least on mailing list) on this draft to create some kind of design base for MIP QoS signaling, as you have said above. Such discussion can also provide feedback to framework document.    

Anyway, here comes a set of comments from my perspective.

Best regards /Gabor

---------------------------------------------------------------
1
I agree that we need to consider a QoS signaling that works
in a mobile/wireless environment and that the wireless bandwidth
economy must be an important factor. From this point of view,
I would like to see a more clear discussion on the requirements
that this draft provides the solution for. 

[Hemant] The main air interface bandwidth saving procedures that we have contemplated in the draft are: use of context transfer signaling between ARs to avoid sending much of the information over the air as well as avoiding (as much as possible) any traversals of wireless links (on both MN and CN side) during vertical signaling procedures.

Clearly, we have 
at least two important input documents: the NSIS requirement
doc and the mobileip-qos-requirements doc. I think that your 
framework draft should try to identify which of these requirements
it considers important and which new ones it adds to those.

[Hemant] In this draft, we have considered following requirements as prime ones: air interface bandwidth saving, fast QoS establishment after handoff,   authentication of handoff-induced signaling (to avoid spoofing attacks) and minimizing the impact of signaling on the segment of packet path that remains unchanged after handoff.

2
I also agree that we need to differentiate between the "edge" 
signaling, the context transfer signaling and the 
"data path signaling". We need to be careful with statements
like "lightweight signaling mechanism required over the
wireless link". We indeed want to minimize both 
the number and the length of signaling messages over the air
(so in that sense it should be lightweight), but we do
want to provide enough information to efficiently configure
wireless resources, often per user flow and per-flow
state maintenance with support of bi-directional asymmetric
reservation, etc.
I think that the draft should define what is meant by "wireless
bandwidth economy" and discuss more the requirements 
specifically on the edge signaling.

[Hemant] As you can see, for now, the critical mass of the draft is on vertical signaling. We have briefly described horizontal signaling, mainly to show its relation to vertical signaling. This has been done with the hope that we can borrow context transfer work from Seamoby to the extent possible for the edge QoS signaling part.   

3
The draft talks about the negotiation procedures (in 4.2).
In my opinion the draft should identify the requirement more
clearly, preferably with a reference to either the NSIS or
the mobile IP requirement draft. Is there a difference between
negotiation (which takes place upon QoS initiation time) and 
QoS adaptation signaling which may take place upon hand-over ?

[Hemant] We have advocated one pass reservation approach in the interest of speed of QoS establishment (in other words, minimize the number of packets that may get default forwarding treatment after handoff, just because QoS signaling has not yet completed). In most of the handoff cases, the request will be granted. But, there could be cases when requested QoS < offered QoS, and then, MN may choose to have control over decision as to whether to continue or terminate the session. For this case, we have provided fallback mechanism in the form of negotiation procedure. If the MN knows at handoff time (e.g. handoff from 2.5G to WLAN or vice versa) as to whether it needs to adapt QoS after handover to the characteristics of new access, it will put the adapted QoS parameters in the QoS signaling packet in the first place. Even after that, if some router cannot offer the requested QoS, we have negotiation procedure as fallback.  

4
I am not sure that it is meaningful at this point to start
discussing specific solution approaches. You seem to propose
to use ICMP as a design base for both edge signaling and for
context transfer (AR to AR). At least for the edge signaling,
we need to consider the edge specific requirements before
we start discussing what existing or new protocol can be the
design base for that.

[Hemant] Continuing my earlier comment about reusing as much from Seamoby for edge signaling, ICMP has been proposed in anticipation that  context transfer protocol in Seamoby will be ICMP based. It is precisely for the reason you mention above, that we have refrained from specifying any specific protocol to carry vertical signaling. Rather, we have focused on the characteristics that such carrier protocol, the information it may convey, processing of that information at intermediate nodes and security of signaling. 

5
You mention RFC2998 as one of your basic references, which I 
think is a very useful RFC in this context as well. 
However, from 
the draft it is not clear how you use that in the proposed
architecture. (Since ICMP seems to be the base and not RSVP.)

[Hemant] RFC2998 has following conceptual elements in it: signaling follows data path (which now is also in NSIS charter statement) and a set of routers on end to end path (QCs) control the QoS. We also started with this architecture. From this point onward, RFC2998 goes on to specify how RSVP can signal QoS over this architecture, while we choose a different signaling method.

6
You identify QoS release as a necessary functionality.
Here there is a need to identify if the protocol should
support soft state (in which case this explicit QoS release
may not be necessary) or not. 

[Hemant] In soft state approach, explicit TEAR DOWN may not be required. Of course, if inter-REFRESH period is chosen long enough to save REFRESH signaling overhead, TEAR DOWN can still help. Finally, if we go for soft state & no tear down approach, the TEAR DOWN part of the protocol can be gracefully omitted.

7
As a minor detail issue,
I see some problems with the definition of the cross-over router.
I believe that your definition in 4.1.3 would identify 
several routers as cross-over router, whereas later on
it seems that only the first merging point is really used
as cross-over router. By the way, the notion of cross-over
router in my opinion should be introduced when you present
the whole model around the figure in Section 1, but this
is a presentation issue.

[Hemant] Thanks for the comments, and apologies if some of above points were not clear from the write-up.

Hemant
