These are Dave Oran's comments.

thanks,

This covers my overall impressions and my comments on GIMPS. Comments on =

QoS and NATFW to follow.

General:
- I'm still not comfortable with the delicate tradeoffs of =
responsiveness=20
to routing changes and message overhead. This is fundamental to the =
whole=20
C-mode/D-mode operation and hence we may just have to live with the=20
tradeoffs
- Don't feel comfortable that the ordering properties among the =
signaling=20
applications carried by GIMPS are captured in the design. For example, =
QoS=20
signaling depends on prior establishment of NAT and FW state. What =
enforces=20
this ordering, and if so, does it require extra RTTs to set up the=20
dependent state?

NTLP Comments:

- Definition of data flow excludes multicast. OK, but should this be =
part=20
of  the definition?
- Definition of data flow enforces "unique path". Does this mean path=20
splitting is not ok even for flows where delivery order doesn't matter?
- How does path coupling work if proxies are not on the path?
- What led to the decision to use a hop count rather than a VIA-style =
path=20
recording?
- The D-mode gimps message needs to truly mimic the actual data flow in=20
order to guarantee congruent routing. This is particularly important =
where=20
routers may be doing their own flow routing based on things like DSCP.
- If NATs have to be GIMPS-aware then aren't we punting a big part of =
the=20
application scope for NSIS?
- NIT on tunneling - it's the outer header of the tunneled packets which =

doesn't have RAO, not the tunneled packet itself.
- section 8.3 says raw IP ruled out by section 8.2 but I see nothing in =
8.2=20
which argues for ruling out raw ip encapsulation. Just confused here...
- small point on aggregation - its the exit interface which defines the=20
aggregation level, not the router. A router could have interfaces at=20
different aggregation levels.

Comments on NSLP

- in general this doc is not as well written as NTLP and needs some=20
editorial work. Parts are pretty hard to understand.
- Policy control may involve "envelope resource utilitzation" policy in=20
addition to simple AAA. This means that hard synchronization with the =
AAA=20
policy state and the NSLP element may be necessary.
- Is there a need for explicit teardown invoked by the AAA element?
- How is receiver selection based on ADSPEC done if resources are =
reserved=20
in the forward direction with RESERVE?
- some talk about 2-phase operation for RSVP. Any thought of the same =
for=20
NSLP?
- Didn't see any way to do resource sharing across flows.
- Ditto for fate-sharing across flows (if you tear one down you tear the =

fate-shared ones down)
- Reservation priority is declared out of scope but is critically=20
important. We can't just punt this. One thought is to have it be part of =
a=20
set of "common facilities" that go across all the GIMPS applications. I =
bet=20
there are a number of such common things which are not part of the=20
transport but aren't specific to a particular signaling appication.
- Is there any capability for make-before-break so that reservations can =
be=20
installed on multiple paths at the same time to deal with graceful=20
mobility? It seems that the notion of flow/session separation captures =
part=20
of this, but I don't see how it solves the double-booking problems on =
the=20
common links.
- how does bi-dir reservation enforce symmetric routing?

Dave, all,

Many thanks for these comments.

I've made some (brief) replies on the specific NTLP issues
below. Mostly I think these are clarifications, but in some
cases there will need to be some more detailed work. (I think
John will capture these bigger points somehow and we'll work
out how to address them.)

There is a general question: a number of these questions
really ask for more design rationale to be recorded about
the protocol. Where is the right place to put this?

> NTLP Comments:
> 
> - Definition of data flow excludes multicast. OK, but should 
> this be part of the definition?

We could rephrase the text in section 2 to say that flows can
be uni/multi/any-cast but that our scope for this document is 
restricted to unicast flows. And maybe put the scoping stuff
further up in section.

> - Definition of data flow enforces "unique path". Does this mean path 
> splitting is not ok even for flows where delivery order 
> doesn't matter?

My current assumption is: yes, unfortunately.
It would (probably) be possible for GIMPS to find most or all of 
the branches of a split flow path. However, it would be hard to
work out what to tell the NSLPs about this situation - would it
be necessary (for example) to estimate traffic percentages on 
each branch and so on.

So, a first guess (in the interests of simplicity) is to just
to say 'NSIS won't give the full picture if path splitting
happens'.

This could change if
- we start to think path splitting is a more common problem
- we think it's easy to tell the NSLPs something sensible
(it's easier for NATFW than QoS).

More feedback on either of these (from anyone) would be helpful.

> - How does path coupling work if proxies are not on the path?

It doesn't; or rather, we only consider proxies that are on
the path. This can be fixed in section 2.

> - What led to the decision to use a hop count rather than a 
> VIA-style path recording?

That's something that hasn't been analysed in detail, IIRC.
There may be a question about where between the layers loop
prevention and path recording should be done in general.

(So, I suspect we should make an action to analyse this
for the next version.)

> - The D-mode gimps message needs to truly mimic the actual 
> data flow in order to guarantee congruent routing. 
> This is particularly important where 
> routers may be doing their own flow routing based on things like DSCP.

This is quite right. We could emphasise this more in the
text (i.e. explain the motivation). Probably the right place
would be 5.3 (it already comments on setting the DSCP to
address this problem), with some more information on how
things can go wrong if higher layer routing is done.

> - If NATs have to be GIMPS-aware then aren't we punting a big 
> part of the application scope for NSIS?

There are different levels of 'awareness'. The minimal level
of awareness that is needed is for a NAT to know that a 
particular packet has header field information inside it
and that something should be done to add some further 
information about existing bindings or say there are no
applicable bindings.

This is a lot less than the full set of features that
a NATFW application might/should have. Precisely where the
division of responsibility between GIMPS and the NATFW 
should be is still open.

> - NIT on tunneling - it's the outer header of the tunneled 
> packets which doesn't have RAO, not the tunneled packet itself.

True.

> - section 8.3 says raw IP ruled out by section 8.2 but I see 
> nothing in 8.2 which argues for ruling out raw ip encapsulation. Just 
> confused here...

Basically they are NAT traversal issues.
- Raw IP (according to several reports) won't go through 
  some (many?) existing low end NATs. This would seem to be
  a show stopper.
- If you are in an address sharing scenario, there needs to
  be some other identifier to demultiplex messages into the
  internal network. Using UDP provides the port number,
  but with a raw encapsulation GIMPS would have to provide 
  its own.

We could spell this out in more detail (and then people could
say if this is enough to draw a conclusion).

> - small point on aggregation - its the exit interface which defines the 
> aggregation level, not the router. A router could have interfaces at 
> different aggregation levels.

True. And there could be different levels for different
applications (and it could get more complex still). We can
extend 8.4 to address this.

Thanks again,

Robert H.

Robert,

as people may expect I support your position on trading=20

should be able to deal with some load-balancing=20
implementations. I don't think it is a good idea to=20
design NSIS to be able to deal with all types of route=20
change mechanisms. I'd consider a simple protocol working=20
with 95% of all networks as a success. Advanced solutions=20
may follow.

I agree & would could note in the document the cases that may
not work.

I'm ok with this tradeoff too. The original comment was more to have the=20
documents not encode requirements (or the lack thereof) in the guise of=20
definitions.

Hello John

I have read the NSIS threats document and in my opinion is usefull for
NSIS
and good enough to pass the WG last call.

Best Regards,
Georgios

Hi,

here are some last call comments on the threats document.
(i actually wrote them last week but then fell out of the
net. it must be 9th march somewhere, though.)
General

Despite the introductory text, I found it hard to work out
sometimes whether the document was talking about the overall
signalling problem or the different bits of NSIS (and whether
it was supposed to be doing one or the other or both). Apart
from anything else, someone less familiar than me with NSIS
terminology could get easily lost at various stages. A readability
check by someone with *no* NSIS background might be a good 
thing.

There is an important question of whether this document should
attempt to allocate responsibility for various threats between
the NSIS layers. My view is that - apart from high-level
statements about whether something is (for example) application 
related or transport related - it should not. Many details
of the layer split (including details which are very relevant 
from the security perspective) are left open in the framework,
so the layer split will only be well enough defined to analyse
as the protocol designs firm up. This document will serve as an
input to that design process, but it will still need interpretation
during that process.

Editorial comments have been sent separately.

Would be nice to add references here.

The particular interaction you mention is not discussed in much detail,
in fact.

>

You also use some framework terms (e.g. in the preceding paragraph!)

> 2. Relevant Communications Models 

I think something should be added to this section to say that these
different models are not hard and fast statements about exactly how
communications in the Internet actually work, but convenient names
for different 'typical' scenarios. For example:
- is an on-path proxy a first peer or not? (according to the pictures
  it is if it initiates NSIS signalling, but it could actually be
  anywhere in the network)
- if I have a personal area network, is the device in it which provides
  the gateway to the infrastructure a first peer or not? (according
  to the pictures it is not if some other device in the PAN initiates
  the signalling, but the security issues are probably more first-peer
  like)

Also, this section talks a lot about 'trust relationships' without
saying what they are. (It may be that this is a standard formal
term, but I've just seen in another project a case where several
security experts realised they were all using it in a set of unsubtly
different ways.) It could mean
- some commonality of purpose (having the same goal)
- the ability to authenticate (because shared keys or validated
  certificates are available)
- an existing security association
- something else

Another point is that the level of detail in various subsections
is not consistent. Some include scenarios, some describe security
concepts, some provide threats information, and so on. This is 
slightly disorienting for the reader.

> 2.1 First-Peer Communications 

>    Usually there is 
>    a fairly strong (pre-established) trust relationship between the 
>    peers. Enterprise network administrators usually have some degree of 
>    freedom to select the appropriate security protection and to enforce

This sound perilously like talking about a 'trusted domain' (which is

OTOH the increased volume of traffic probably means that automatic

But why mention these (generic) threats here and not any of the 
other communications models (they apply widely, e.g. middle-middle,
end-middle).

I don't know whether this is just saying that SA establishment needs
DoS protection (true), or a more subtle point about DoS protection 
being harder without the separation because the first stage is more
expensive (as you say later). In either case, the text doesn't seem
to be needed here.

You haven't defined what a discovery procedure is. And even if the
protocols do have discovery procedures (which is not fixed, at least
at this threats stage of the lifecycle), the vulnerability is more
fundamental in the functionality.

> 3.4 Insecure Parameter Exchange and Negotiation

I think this threat is very important to consider. But is there
any way to handle it except in the context of a security protocol
(unless you rely on static policies)? You can always mount a 
downgrading attack on the authentication process itself, at 
which point you are finished.

I found this paragraph quite hard to follow (even though I think
I know what you are trying to say). Part of the problem is that
you are talking about the *threat* of flooding but the section
title is referring to imperfections in a particular class of 
solution. 

There is room for a more structured analysis of the flooding problem
(especially in the light of concerns about RAO handling expressed on
Monday). Flooding needs a layered defence and protection happens at
several levels.

This implication of this is that flow identifiers should be hard to
spoof usefully (e.g. they should contain destination addresses).
This would be an important point to capture and propagate through into
the signalling protocol security analysis.

Doesn't this just mean that the token passing protocol is broken?
(i.e. shouldn't we be able to avoid this happening by using strong
protocols? or are these protocols particularly hard to secure?)

Is this really specifically about reservation requests? It sounds
generically like a threat caused by any message which can be sent
without direct cost. (In particular, referring to reservation 
requests rather than messsages in general makes it sound like 
this is a threat to the resource pool, whereas I think it is a
threat to the control plane.)

> 4.11 Attacks against the Transport Mechanism 
>     
I think we can now refer to the split layer architecture as a 
decision within the group (after all, it's in the charter) and is
as defined in the framework.

A reference to RFC2385 might be helpful background.

Subject:    [NSIS] WG Last Call on draft-ietf-nsis-threats-04.txt


Hello all,

During IESG evaluation of the Framework, it has come-up that security
isn't given enough consideration in the FW document.  That is mostly
because the information is split off into the NSIS Threats document.

In order progress the FW document in the IESG, we should also submit
the NSIS Threats document.  Therefore, I'd like to kick-off a
2 week WG Last Call on the current threats document.  The WGLC
will run until March 9th.

The updated document can be found here:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nsis-threats-04.txt

thanks,
John

Hi John,=20

I find the threats doc very useful however have some comments on it. =
May be I already missed the deadline (too many things to work on after =
returning from Seoul)... I'd be able to write down my comments until =
end of this week.

Hi all,

Here is text that I recieved from Kireeti Kompella & Adrian Farrel.
Please review and comment if anyone disagrees.

thanks!
John

=3D=3D forwarded text =3D=3D

Here is the text that Adrian had in replacement of sections 2.2.10
through 2.2.12, with minor mods from me.

As a whole, this document seems primarily to be more of a "Compendium
of Extensions to RSVP and Other Quality of Service Signaling
Protocols"  rather than an Analysis of the same.  It is useful as
such, but one might consider a change of title.

Kireeti.
-------

=3D=3D BEGIN ORIGINAL TEXT =3D=3D

2.2.10.  MPLS Traffic Engineering

   RSVP-TE [RFC3209] specifies the extension to RSVP for establishing
   explicitly routed LSPs in MPLS networks using RSVP as a signaling
   protocol. RSVP-TE is intended for use by label switching routers (as
   well as hosts) to establish and maintain LSP-tunnels and to reserve
   network resources for such LSP-tunnels.  RFC3209 defines a new Hello
   message (for rapid node failure detection), new C-Types
   (LSP_TUNNEL_IPv4 and LSP_TUNNEL_IPv6) for the SESSION (here a session
   is implicitly defined as the set of packets that are assigned the
   same MPLS label value at the originating node of an LSP-tunnel),
   SENDER_TEMPLATE, and FILTER_SPEC objects, and the following 5 new
   objects:

   1) EXPLICIT_ROUTE object (ERO), which is incorporated into RSVP Path
      messages, encapsulating a concatenation of hops which constitutes
      the explicitly routed path. Using this object, the paths taken by
      label-switched RSVP-MPLS flows can be pre-determined, independent
      of conventional IP routing.

   2) LABEL_REQUEST object. To establish an LSP tunnel, the sender can
      create a Path message with a LABEL_REQUEST object. A node that
      sends a LABEL_REQUEST object MUST be ready to accept and correctly
      process a LABEL object in the corresponding Resv messages.

   3) LABEL object.  Each node that receives a Resv message containing a
      LABEL object uses that label for outgoing traffic associated with
      this LSP tunnel.

   4) SESSION_ATTRIBUTE object, which can be added to Path messages to
      aid in session identification and diagnostics.  Additional control
      information, such as setup and hold priorities, resource
      affinities and local-protection, are also included in this object.

   5) RECORD_ROUTE object (RRO). The RECORD_ROUTE object may appear in
      both Path and Resv messages. It is used to collect detailed path
      information and is useful for loop detection and for diagnostics.

   Section 5 of RFC3270 further specifies the extensions to RSVP to
   establish LSPs supporting DiffServ in MPLS networks, introducing a
   new DIFFSERV Object (applicable in the Path messages) and using pre-
   configured or (e.g. RFC3270) signaled "EXP<-->PHB mapping".


2.2.11.  GMPLS RSVP: Provision Optical Networks

   [RFC3473] is developed on top of RSVP-TE. It enables network
   operations to provision data-path within optical networks.  It
   defines a Notify message (for general event notification), which may
   contain notifications being sent, with respect to each listed
   session, both upstream and downstream. Notify messages can be used
   together with Notify Request object for expedited notification of
   failures and other events to nodes responsible for restoring failed
   LSPs. A Notify message is sent without the router alert option.
   Besides, a number of new RSVP-TE (sub)objects are defined in GMPLS
   RSVP-TE for general uses of MPLS: (for label management:)

   - a Generalized Label Request Object;
   - Bandwidth Encoding carried in SENDER_TSPEC and FLOWSPEC objects,
     Generalized Label Object;
   - a Waveband Switching Object;
   - a Suggested Label Object;
   - a Label Set Object; (to support bidirectional LSP setup:)
   - an Upstream_Label object; (to support uni- and bi-directional
     Explicit Label Control:)
   - a Label ERO subobject;
   - a Label RRO subobject, which is included in RROs as described in
     [RFC3209]; (To Control Channel Separation:)
   - IF_ID RSVP_HOP objects (IPv4 & v6);
   - IF_ID ERROR_SPEC objects (IPv4 & v6); (to support rapid failure
     notification:)
   - a Acceptable Label Set object to support Notification on Label
     Error;
   - a Notify Request object, which may be inserted in Path or Resv
     messages to indicate where a notification of LSP failure is to be
     sent; (for fault handling:)
   - a Restart_Cap Object; (for administrative purposes:)
   - an Admin Status Object, which is used to notify each node along the
     path of the status of the LSP.

   Since RSVP-TE does not provide a way to indicate an unnumbered link
   in its Explicit Route and Record Route Objects, [KoRe03] specifies
   extensions to RSVP-TE to support (point-to-point) unnumbered links,
   namely,

   - an Unnumbered Interface ID Subobject, which is a new subobject of
     the Explicit Route Object (ERO) used to specify unnumbered links;
   - an LSP_TUNNEL_INTERFACE_ID Object, to allow the adjacent LSR to
     form or use an identifier for the Forwarding Adjacency;
   - a new subobject of the Record Route Object, used to record that the
     LSP path traversed an unnumbered link.


2.2.12.  GMPLS Interworking with ITU and OIF

   [LiPe02] proposes additional extensions to GMPLS RSVP-TE to support
   the capabilities of an Automatically Switched Optical Network (ASON,
   an architecture developed by ITU-T SG15).  To support Soft Permanent
   Connection (SPC), it uses GENERALIZED_UNI object defined by [OIF-
   UNI-1.0] but introduces a new subtype: SPC_LABEL. In addition, a Call
   identifier (CALL_ID) object is used in logical call/connection
   separation, which are used together with a new Call capability
   (CALL_OPS) object for complete call/connection separation. Besides
   new error codes, 3 new C-types are defined for the SESSION object:
   UNI_IPv6 SESSION, ENNI_IPv4 SESSION and ENNI_IPv6 SESSION.

   Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF) UNI 1.0 signaling ([OIF-UNI-1.0])
   supports [RFC2205, RFC2961, RFC3209, Berg03] in a limited way. 10
   types of RSVP(-TE) messages are supported, but used in a slightly
   different way.  For example, only FF style is supported; States are
   always deleted explicitly; a state timer expiration will not deleted
   the state, rather triggers a tear down message; any RSVP message must
   be dropped silently when fails security validation.  Besides new
   error codes, a few new (sub)objects are introduced, including
   [Berg03]:

   - a new C-type for ACCEPTABLE_LABEL_SET;
   - a new C-type for ADMIN_STATUS;
   - a new C-type for LABEL_SET;
   - a new C-type for RECOVER_LABEL;
   - a new C-type for RESTART_CAP;
   - a new C-type for UPSTEAM_LABEL;
   - a UNI_IPv4_SESSION object, combined with
     LSP_TUNNEL_IPv4_SENDER_TEMPLATE object to uniquely identify a
     connection at a local UNI;
   - a GENERALIZED_LABEL_REQUEST object;
   - a GENERALIZED_UNI_ATTRIBUTES object, which contains one or more new
     SOURCE_TNA, DESTINATION_TNA, DIVERSITY, EGRESS_LABEL, SERVICE_LEVEL
     subobjects. EGRESS_LABEL can be used to specify either uni- or
     bi-directional connections;
   - a SONET/SDH_SENDER_TSPEC object.

2.2.10.  MPLS Traffic Engineering

   RSVP-TE [RFC3209] specifies the core extensions to RSVP for
   establishing constraint-based explicitly routed LSPs in MPLS networks
   using RSVP as a signaling protocol. RSVP-TE is intended for use by
   label switching routers (as well as hosts) to establish and maintain
   LSP-tunnels and to reserve network resources for such LSP-tunnels.

   RFC3209 defines a new Hello message (for rapid node failure
   detection).

   RFC3209 also defines new C-Types (LSP_TUNNEL_IPv4 and
   LSP_TUNNEL_IPv6) for the SESSION, SENDER_TEMPLATE, and FILTER_SPEC
   objects. Here a session is the association of LSPs that support the
   LSP-tunnel. The traffic on an LSP can be classified as the set of
   packets that are assigned the same MPLS label value at the
   originating node of an LSP-tunnel.

   The following 5 new objects are also defined.

   1) EXPLICIT_ROUTE object (ERO), which is incorporated into RSVP Path
      messages, encapsulating a concatenation of hops which constitutes
      the explicitly routed path. Using this object, the paths taken by
      label-switched RSVP-MPLS flows can be pre-determined, independent
      of conventional IP routing.

   2) LABEL_REQUEST object. To establish an LSP tunnel, the sender can
      create a Path message with a LABEL_REQUEST object. A node that
      sends a LABEL_REQUEST object MUST be ready to accept and correctly
      process a LABEL object in the corresponding Resv messages.

   3) LABEL object.  Each node that receives a Resv message containing a
      LABEL object uses that label for outgoing traffic associated with
      this LSP tunnel.

   4) SESSION_ATTRIBUTE object, which can be added to Path messages to
      aid in session identification and diagnostics.  Additional control
      information, such as setup and holding priorities, resource
      affinities and local-protection, are also included in this object.

   5) RECORD_ROUTE object (RRO). The RECORD_ROUTE object may appear in
      both Path and Resv messages. It is used to collect detailed path
      information and is useful for loop detection and for diagnostics.

   Section 5 of [RFC3270] further specifies the extensions to RSVP to
   establish LSPs supporting DiffServ in MPLS networks, introducing a
   new DIFFSERV Object (applicable in the Path messages) and using pre-
   configured or (e.g. RFC3270) signaled "EXP<-->PHB mapping".

   RSVP-TE provides a way to indicate an unnumbered link in its Explicit
   Route and Record Route Objects through [RFC3477]. This specifies the
   following extensions.

   - An Unnumbered Interface ID Subobject, which is a subobject of the
     Explicit Route Object (ERO) used to specify unnumbered links;
   - An LSP_TUNNEL_INTERFACE_ID Object, to allow the adjacent LSR to
     form or use an identifier for an unnumbered Forwarding Adjacency;
   - A new subobject of the Record Route Object, used to record that the
     LSP path traversed an unnumbered link.

2.2.11.  GMPLS RSVP: Provisioning for Multiple Switching Types

   GMPLS RSVP-TE [RFC3473] is an extension of RSVP-TE.  It enables the
   provisioning of data-paths within networks supporting a variety of
   switching types including packet and cell switching networks, layer
   two networks, TDM networks and photonic networks.

   It defines the new Notify message (for general event notification),
   which may contain notifications being sent, with respect to each
   listed LSP, both upstream and downstream. Notify messages can be used
   for expedited notification of failures and other events to nodes
   responsible for restoring failed LSPs. A Notify message is sent
   without the router alert option.

   A number of new RSVP-TE (sub)objects are defined in GMPLS RSVP-TE for
   general uses of MPLS:

   - a Generalized Label Request Object;
   - a Generalized Label Object;
   - a Suggested Label Object;
   - a Label Set Object; (to restrict label choice)
   - an Upstream_Label object; (to support bi-directional LSPs)
   - a Label ERO subobject;
   - IF_ID RSVP_HOP objects (IPv4 & IPv6; to identify interfaces in
     out of band signaling or in bundled links);
   - IF_ID ERROR_SPEC objects (IPv4 & IPv6; to identify interfaces in
     out of band signaling or in bundled links);
   - an Acceptable Label Set object (to support negotiation of label
     values in particular for bidirecitonal LSPs)
   - a Notify Request object (may be inserted in a Path or Resv message
     to indicate to where a notification of LSP failure is to be sent)
   - a Restart_Cap Object (used on Hello messages to identify recovery
     capabilities)
   - an Admin Status Object (to notify each node along the path of the
     status of the LSP, and to control that state).

2.2.12. GMPLS Operation at UNI and E-NNI Reference Points

   The ITU-T defines nework reference points that separate
   administrative or operational parts of the network. The reference
   points are designated as:
   - User to Network Interfaces (UNIs) if they lie between the user
     or user network and the core network.
   - External Network to Network Interfaces (E-NNIs) if they lie
     between peer networks, network domains, or subnetworks.

   GMPLS is applicable to the UNI and E-NNI without further
   modification, and no new messages, objects or C-Types are required.
   See [OVERLAY].

2.2.13. MPLS and GMPLS Future Extensions

   At the time of writing MPLS and GMPLS are being extended by the MPLS
   and CCAMP Working Groups to support additional sophisticated
   functions. This will inevitably lead to the introduction of new
   C-Types for existing objects, and to the requirement for new objects
   (CNums). It is  possible that new messages will also be introduced.

   Some of the key features and functions being introduced include:

   - Protection and restoration. Features will be developed to provide
     - end-to-end protection
     - segment protection
     - various protection schemes (1+1, 1:1, 1:n)
     - support of extra traffic on backup LSPs
   - Diverse path establishment for protection and load sharing
   - Point-to-mulitpoint path establishment
   - Inter-area and inter-AS path establishment
     - with explicit path control
     - with bandwidth reservation
     - with path diversity
   - Support for the requirements of ASON signaling as defined by the
     ITU-T, including call and connection separation
   - Crankback during LSP setup.

Comments by Alex can be found at:=20
http://www.tschofenig.priv.at/nsis/IETF59/nsis-zinin-ietf59.ppt

Allison provides an introduction to work done by the review team. =20


Alex: The document assumes that QoS routing is used.=20
Re-route identification: local interface state monitoring is not enough
re-routing: delaying route installation on re-routing may be a bad idea =
because=20
of loops
certain drop/delay sensitive apps may require reestablished back-up =
state

Henning: the last issue is discussed in the nsis mobility documents. it =
might be=20
too tight with mobility and also too complex. it may be possible without =

mobility (if we can discover the alternative route)

Alex: State refresh must be done; qos nslp document does not discuss it=20

Alex: NTLP: Why per-flow routing state at the ntlp level?
are you suggesting flow-based routing?=20

Henning: That was not the intention.

Alex: NAT traversal:=20
I had the impression that the document says that no integrity protection =
is=20
required. Furthermore, it says that the routing/forwarding state is =
changed.=20

Hannes, Henning and Martin try to clarify=20
Martin: Terminology needs to be fixed.

Georgios: Do you refer to aggregation to perform the state reduction?
Alex: State aggregation and refresh reduction are two different issues


Dave starts with his review on the NTLP work.=20
=20
Dave: This is awful complicated. Do we want to get beyond the energy =
barrier to=20
deploy this?=20

Henning: There is opportunity to simplify it. We have done a prototype =
running=20
which is simple enough for students to implement it.=20

Dave: It would be really good to have some simulations here. There is =
c-mode and=20
d-mode and the protocol is very complicated.=20

Henning: Simulations - work in progress.=20

Dave: We have this layering. Are these applications orthogonal to each =
other?=20
Example:=20
In order to install QoS state the NAT binding has to be installed. =
First, you=20
install the NAT state, then you install the QoS state but what happens =
if one=20
state is deleted?

John: We have discussed this and said that the protocols should be =
developed=20
first before considering their interaction.=20

Robert: This is a very good point. Is NAT a very special case here?=20

Dave: We only have two applications? Building NAT into the transport =
might be a=20
possibility.=20

Dave: Why have you developed a hop-count? To build an explicit path =
discovery=20
mechanism instead of a hop count is much better.=20

Dave: The D-mode has to accurately mimic the data flow. This was simple =
with=20
destination based forwarding. Today people consider the source IP =
address, DSCP,=20
etc.=20

Robert: We have thought about this detail a lot (including load =
balancing). If=20
there are better ways todo it then we should change it.=20

Fred: People asked us to route data traffic different than data.=20

Henning: We exhaustively enumerated the possibilities.

Allison: Why does this issue not applied to D-mode?=20

Dave: The C-mode uses the D-mode to perform the discovery.=20


Dave switched to the QoS signaling work.=20


Dave: People often want to envelope authorization. Radius is no tightly=20
synchronized to provide this functionality ; COPS is.=20

Dave: Can you teardown state somewhere along the path? (inside out =
instead of=20
outside in).=20

Henning: I have thought about this problem of sending the end points a =
teardown=20
message.=20

Dave: Let us take this offline.=20
Dave: I don't understand how the adspec functionality works. Perhaps the =

equivalent mechanism is the query mechanism. Take this as a 'the =
reviewer does=20
not understand' issue.=20

Dave: People have discussed a two-phase commit in context of RSVP.=20

Dave: I didn't see a number of things: resource sharing across flows =
(e.g.,=20
voice over ip signaling);=20
marking multiple flows doing fade sharing. the document currently says =
outside=20
of scope. Priority preemption is important.=20

Fred: This is important.=20

Dave: Priority preemption: It might be useful to have a layer (or a data =

structure) which is common to all signaling applications. Replace some =
set of=20
state with a high set of state. Do not let every application define its =
own=20
mechanism.=20

Henning: I don't want to nuke your connection, in case of a NAT binding. =


Dave: You could allow an application to control whether you would like =
to do=20
fate sharing. In case of NAT you would not perform this.=20

Dave: Multiple QoS model scared me a lot. The notion you could stack =
these=20
things. There is a lot of evidence that it is difficult to map one qos =
model to=20
another (docsis, ethernet).

Dave: Comments on the NAT/Firewall will be addressed later. I haven't =
finished=20
the document yet.=20

Fred: You mentioned that there are some reasons that RSVP did not get =
deployed.=20
There are political reasons and technical reasons. The concept of a =
router alert=20
option is a concern for administrators. There is concern about their =
routing=20
behavior.=20

Fred: The original approach in RSVP was that all routers look in all =
packets.=20
If there is a way to target the messages to these machines then we would =
be a=20
lot happier.=20

John: A discovery message with a peer-to-peer addressing mechanism is =
there. =20

Fred: The perceived complexity caused them not todo that. I am looking =
at this :=20
3 protocols, stacking, etc.=20
That could give me the same perception.=20

And then there is the fundamental question of scaling. It took us a long =
time to=20
get RSVP to scale. You have to think very early about scaling.=20

Steve: A short comment on the load. We spend a lot of time on channel =
security=20
(off-the-shelf product).=20
A harder problem is authorization which is often not considered. There =
are=20
authorization problems in many different layers:
- Am I allowed to make a QoS reservation?=20
- Am I allowed to look at this packet? Providing this across provider =
boundary=20
with different policies is very hard. =20

Allison: The ability to to have Intserv at the access network and =
Diffserv at=20
the edge to the core is very important.=20
It needs to be considered how this functionality should be included into =
NSIS=20
from the beginning.=20

Hannes: The layer split model allows nodes in the middle of the network =
to=20
signal different QoS models . We seem to have a requirement that =
different QoS=20
models are required for different behavior in the core than in the =
access=20
networks.=20
John: The authors have considered this issue with scoping. IPv6 comes in =
mind.=20
If there are some simple ways todo it then please state it.=20

Robert: At the protocol level we try our best to support different QoS =
model.=20
The nsis charter does not consider qos models.=20

Allison: There is certainly a difference between per-flow QoS and =
per-aggregate.=20


Alex: Abstracting the QoS model might be a good idea but we should not =
forget=20
scalability.=20

Henning: We have done RSVP implementations and the source of the problem =
are=20
per-flow reservations. The state storage once you do refresh reduction =
was not=20
something which couldn't be handled. I would be much more concerned =
about the=20
authorization aspects where AAA interaction is required.=20

Alex: There are multiple points in a design where assumptions make =
problems=20
later.=20

Georgios: There is a need to support different QoS models. It is good to =
define=20
some common functionality and to provide information which is QoS model =
specific=20
in a separate document.=20

There are IETF QoS models, some defined by other organizations and even =
private=20
ones.=20

Allison: I am not sure whether vendors are happy to implement private =
QoS=20
models. I am not sure whether private QoS models are difficult but they =
could=20
be.

John: If other standardization models (such as 3GPP) come to request QoS =
models=20
then this is fine with me.=20

Dave: If I think about mapping one QoS model to another then I am =
scared. If you=20
think about re-routing events then you need to define a least-common=20
denominator.=20

Fred: Do a traceroute and you will note that you go through several =
different=20
providers. If you have QoS model based on a provider-basis then you will =
fail.=20

Henning: People are often taking about different submodels of IntServ. =
We need a=20
precise notion of what a QoS model is. Before we get too worried we =
should look=20
at some QoS models. There seem to be that there is a single parameter =
bandwidth=20
model (not even per-flow / per-aggregate distinction) (queuing =
parameters and=20
bandwidth parameters). This might be a way to avoid some of the =
problems.=20

Allison: It seems to be useful to define some minimal set of parameters. =
Can we=20
agree that we would like to get close to things which we know already?

Henning: Most people in the real world do not know how to set the =
parameters for=20
the IntServ model.=20

Lou: The biggest RSVP deployment is in the MPLS area. How does NSIS fit =
in=20
there?=20

Allison: Is there a reason to replace RSVP with NSIS in the MPLS area?

Lou: Why do you want to deploy NSIS at all? The problem of RSVP wasn't =
really=20
NAT and Firewall.=20
Lou: What was the reason RSVP to fail?=20

John: What we try to do with NSIS is path-coupled signaling. We keep the =

properties of RSVP.=20

Allison: In NSIS we do per-flow signaling without multicast stuff. Some=20
additional things have been introduced (such as mobility handling).=20

Lixia Zhang: This argument is flawed. RSVP flawed due to the =
insufficient need=20
for micro-flow reservations.=20

Allison: People from the telecommunications claim that they need =
per-flow=20
reservations.=20

Henning: Now we actually have real numbers using voice over ip =
applications.=20

John: We should get back to the review.=20

Lou: I am pretty happy to hear that MPLS signaling is off the table from =
NSIS.=20
You need a QoS analysis before starting.  You cannot start solving the =
problem=20
only because IP telephone needs

Xiaobao Chen: We setup 3GPP networks with UMTS and use QoS reservations. =
The=20
general feeling is to use per-flow signaling in the access network and =
diffserv=20
model in the core. =20

Lou: Why don't you use RSVP?=20

Xiaobao Chen: This is a long story. We have a per-flow session, =
resources,=20
charging and billing integration. We want to reuse IETF protocols.=20

Lou:=20
a) Does the NSIS documents cover the functionality the current RSVP?
b) What is NSIS fundamentally giving us to make it more successful for a =

real-world deployment?

In 3GPP2 we have already standardized RSVP for QoS signaling.

Robert: Everyone addresses the router alert option. There are tradeoffs =
that=20
have to be made. Routing signaling messages by interception is needed. =
Have we=20
got the tradeoff right? Is there something better?=20

Dave: Router alert message gives a way to cause routers to perform more=20
processing. Can we filter bad guys easily than processing a packet?

Fred: We didn't want to 5-tuple analysis and hence we came up with the =
router=20
alert option.=20
In RSVP only two messages (path, path-tear) have this router alert =
option set.=20

Fred: One might think of a discovery phase in NSIS.=20

Dave: That is what NSIS already does.=20

Dave: If you have proxies in the protocol then you need to specify how =
they=20
work.

Fred: .. and they need to be trusted.=20

Dave: How does a proxy start signaling if it is not along the path?=20

Robert: There are no proxies which are not along the path. An edge =
router could=20
be a proxy and it is not the end system.=20

Dave: You should specify this since people have raised other comments in =
the=20
past where these proxies are not along the path.=20

Allison: A comment to preemption as a service in an intermediate layer: =
Perhaps=20
the lower layer (NTLP) should be labeled differently. Maybe it should be =
given=20
more functionality.=20

Dave: We should have more design options.=20

Allison: Regarding the security at both layers: Would the transport and =
the=20
application layer both have to be secured?
The lower layer would provide generic security services such as general =
security=20
functionality. The application layer would provide enhanced security=20
functionality.=20

Robert: If you provide channel security then there is question whether =
you could=20
use it for security.=20
Is there a channel binding between lower and upper layer?=20
Do we have to go back and think about cross-layer security issues?
We don't know how the process looks like here

For example: If a node is authorized to make QoS reservation can it =
flood me=20
with NAT/FW signaling messages?=20


Allison: They are different players. It is ok to have different security =

services at different layers.=20

Steve: Two different security layers might be that you have two =
different things=20
to protect. Example: Email we protect end-to-end on the other hand you =
use smtp=20
with between different nodes to protect the smtp traffic.=20

John: I have a proposal. The QoS NSLP needs to define a basic QSPEC.=20
Additionally there are issues which the NTLP might need to take a look =
at such=20
as priority handling and fade sharing. An applicability statement for =
certain=20
signaling models might be useful. It should tell how a person which uses =
the=20
NSIS protocols how to use a certain QoS model. Does this sound sensible? =
A=20

Dave: There are a set of QoS properties that can describe the properties =

Hi Hannes, 

my comments mostly relate to the structure of Sec 4 (along similar lines as Robert was suggesting), and to problems I have understanding identity spoofing of flow identifieres. See below. 

Cornelia
----------------------

*4. NSIS Specific Threat Scenarios

This Section describes "threat scenarios in terms of attacks on and security deficiencies in the NSIS signaling protocol". I find it hard sometimes in subsequent subsections to pick out what the attack is, and (particularly) what the security deficiencies allowing the attack are. May be you could add sentences clearly stating this, rather than mentioning it in passing. 

In addition to Theats and Security Deficiencies may be you should add (in a structured fashion) what possible remedies are. In most subsections this is mentioned but not everywhere. Also I think the fact that you also discuss remedies should be mentioned in the intro to Sec 4.

Subsection headings sometimes contain possible security deficiencies ("Combined Signaling and SA Establishment") and sometimes threats ("Eavesdropping and Traffic Analysis"). Could you streamline this (i.e. either one or the other)

* 4.2 "Combined Signaling and SA Establishment"

It took me some time to understand the problem. To my current understanding it is the assumption that one doesnt want to introduce extra roundtrip times to establish SAs. I.e. somehow the SA needs to be established as soon as an NSIS message arrives from an unknown NE, without further interaction wiht this NE. But is this assumption valid? Do we expect the number of possible peer-NEs is so large that the costs for an additional roundtrip to establish the SA is too big?

I dont understand the sentence "For this to work, specific classes of cryptographic mechanisms supporting this type of behaviour are needed". What is "this to work"? Do you mean (previous sentence) "allow refresh messages to create new state along a new path" to work _in a secure way_? Furthermore  what specifically is "this type of behaviour"? In the text above no "behaviour" was described.

* 4.3 "Eavesdropping and Traffic Analysis"

I cant find what the security deficiencies are that allow this kind of threat. It only says integrity protection does NOT help against it. But why would anybody think it does??? Adding a kind of secured checksum (that is what integrity protection does, doesnt it?) of course doesnt help.

The 3rd paragraph introduces exploitation of the spoofing of flow identifiers. The remaining paragraphs of 4.3 all seem to discuss this problem in more detail. It took me some time to realize this, may be you could add an explaining sentence.

2nd last paragraph of 4.3: "The ability...to inject data atraffic..requires the ability to also receive the data traffic. This is, however, true only if the flow identifier consists of a value that contains addresses used for routing." Doesnt seem to make sense. I can picture various scenarios where I am able to receive data traffic not really destined to me, independent of the structure of the flow identifier...!?

The same paragraph continues: "If ... using...a flow identifier that do not require such a property (CK: i.e. addresses used for routing I assume?? Or ability to receive data traffic? But this I think is independent of the structure of the flow identifier) then ...injecting traffic are much easier." Doesnt make sense to me either (I may just have problems catching on...)

The final paragraph contains the DiffServ example but I dont see how it relates to the rest. Where is the spoofed flow identifier in the example? May be you could be more explicit...

* 4.6 Missing Non-Repudiation
last paragraph "because it public-key" -> "because public-key"

* 4.8 Denial of Service Attacks
In the "path-finding" scenario, what is a possible remedy?

hi,

a comment on cornelia's comment (which in her email is
targeted at 4.3 but which i think is actually about 4.4):

the real point is more subtle. compared to the original
"The ability for an adversary to inject data traffic that matches a 
   certain flow identifier established by a legitimate user often 
   requires the ability also to receive the data traffic. "

one might emphasise 
"The ability for an adversary to inject data traffic that matches a 
   certain flow identifier established by a legitimate user 
and to get some benefit from injecting that traffic
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
often 
   requires the ability also to receive the data traffic. 
or to have one's correspondent receive it.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^"

you can always try to receive on-link traffic for one of
your neighbours, but that is not really the issue. the
point is:
a) a 'reservation' has an associated filter specification
b) it also has an intended beneficiary
c) all traffic that matches (a) will get the benefit, but
d) that traffic may not be associated with the beneficiary (b)

now, it is possible to write filter specifications which are
similarly fine-grained, but which are very different in the 
possibilities they allow other users to generate traffic which
is useful to them but not what the original user intended. 
hence the threat.

apart from per-packet cryptographic authentication at each
router, it's difficult to counter this type of threat. the
approach being discussed here is to say that if you specify
traffic some ways, the forwarding system itself (i.e. the most 
fundamental part of the network layer) will provide some
protection. the arguments are similar to what was done for
mip6 (see draft-nikander-mobileip-v6-ro-sec-02).

some examples may be needed.

*) reserve class X for traffic with SPI=fred
==> anyone can set SPI=fred in their own packets and get
class X for them.

*) reserve class X for traffic with proto/port=TCP/80 and
source=myself
==> all my outgoing web traffic will get class X; but so
will that from anyone else who spoofs my source address.
(it's hard but not impossible for the spoofer to benefit 
from this.) if applied, ingress filtering on the traffic
will make it harder.

*) reserve class X for traffic with proto/port=TCP/80 and
destination=myself
==> all my incoming traffic will get class X; if we assume
destination address spoofing is impossible, we are just 
about done.

[all these examples are slightly artificial, since the NTLP
would have difficulty in routing messages about such vaguely
specified flows, but they make the general point.]

some master wordsmithing may be required.

hi,

one point i don't follow:

i remember Fred saying something on this topic, but I can't
remember what it was (and i'm sure it wasn't this!) clues?

I think it was something like: "People ask us to route voice traffic
differently to other data".

i.e. some people want voice to go over a different network (or, at
least, via a different route) to other data, so the D-mode signalling
needs to look enough like "voice" (rather than "other data") so it goes
the right way.

Maybe Fred referred to DiffServ aware Traffic engineering. While 
this is an MPLS protocol and therefore not (yet?) related to 
NSIS, it caused Intra Domain routing protocols to introduce a 
second SPF routing instance. With DS TE there's a "standard" metric 
and a "voice class" metric. DS TE allows for more routing 
instances (up to four) but AFAIK only one is implemented for 
the time being.

hi,

given the context in the rest of the minutes and other
people's actual recollections, i would suggest something
like...

Fred: emphasised that people really do route some types of
packet differently from other types of packet, i.e. not purely
on IP destination address (e.g. voice vs. other data).

I don't think this actually changes anything we are doing
or have thought about in the past, but it does reassure me
that we haven't been agonising over a non-issue.

r.

Hi all,

I would like to get some feedback from the WG about the next steps for =
the 3 protocol drafts.  I would like to progress the drafts - it would =
be reasonable to request the authors release an updated version of the =
drafts sometime in May.  Would it be helpful to arrange some conference =
calls around this, or even an interim meeting before San Diego?

thanks,
John

Hi Robert,=20

thanks for the enlightening clarification. I understand the threat and =
the possible solution path now, however the current text IMHO just does =
not at all explain it. It is just too short.=20

Hi, all,

There should be mailing list discussion for each 
protocol draft of the Early Review comments and how they
will be addressed.

hi,

for the GIMPS doc:

I've posted a discussion response to Dave's comments
shortly after the meeting. I think they are all clarifications
or editorial issues, with two exceptions:
- the looping issue (which i'll write something separate about)
- the NAT traversal issue, on which we know more work needs to
  be done (but there wasn't really a specific comment here).
  watch this space...

For Alex's 'general' comments, I'm still waiting for some
confirmation that I've understood the concerns correctly and
then I'll look at fixing them (actually in the framework 
document). His comments on GIMPS are I think again clarification
matters, specifically:
- Q: why per-flow routing info at the NTLP level? 
  A: the same reason NHOP/PHOP state is held per flow in RSVP;
     and also that messaging associations which terminate more
     than one IP hop away cannot be selected only by looking at
     the local forwarding table (==> per flow routing is needed).
     We could put more in 3.1 about this (not too much I hope).

- Q: Suggests flow-based routing?
  A: this is probably a response to the naming of an object as
     'flow routing information'. But this is not information about
     how to route the flow, it is information about the flow to 
     ascertain how it is routed (so the signalling can go the 
     same way). In fact, we will probably change this object to
     'message routing information' in the next version anyway.

If people have further comments on the GIMPS review comments,
please send them.

One question from me about document scope and structure (partly
brought up by the nature of the review comments): a lot of the
comments (the bulk, in fact) are "why is this like this?" or
"what is this bit for?" or "why not do it that way?" - in other
words, requests for explanation and design rationale. How much 
of that type of information should be reflected in the actual protocol 
document, given the need to balance two conflicting concerns:
- a general concern in the IETF that we do a bad job of capturing
  such information for later use; and
- a general concern in the IETF that all documents are too long.

If there are examples of how this has been handled in similar
protocol development activities that people would care to recommend
as a model to follow, that would be interesting.

Hi all,

One of Dave Oran's early review comments was (from the email)

> - What led to the decision to use a hop count rather 
>   than a VIA-style path recording?

and from the discussion at the meeting, the issues were
- a VIA mechanism can prune a loop much faster than a hop count
  (and this is the main purpose of the hop count)
- route recording might end up being used (and thus re-invented)
  by many signalling applications anyway

After some thought, at the moment I think that the current
function split between GIMPS and signalling applications is
right and that it is right for GIMPS to use a counter based
mechanism for loop handling. But the argument is quite detailed.

r.

argument follows:

Looping
-------

Message looping can happen at (at least) 3 levels:
1. normal packet looping at the IP level.
2. a message looping around a set of GIMPS-aware nodes without
   finding a signalling application node to be delivered to.
3. messages looping between instances of a signalling application.

(1) is out of our hands; we know it will happen (at least
transiently) and that the IP TTL will sort things out.

(2) - if it happens even after (1) has been dealt with -
has to be handled by GIMPS. Then the question is whether
to handle it with a hop count or VIA mechanism. (But it is not
immediately obvious that (2) can happen, see below.)

(3) could be handled by each signalling application; or,
GIMPS could provide a common service. And in the second
case, it could use the same mechanism used for (2), or
a different mechanism.

Does GIMPS *need* an internal loop-prevention mechanism?
--------------------------------------------------------

One might think that case (2) could never arise (except as 
a side effect of packet looping). Firstly, a discovery message
is supposed to be forwarded precisely like any other IP 
packet; secondly, we would like to have the situation where
the GIMPS routing state refers to [and messaging associations run 
directly between] signalling application peers. So, either things
are handled in the IP layer; or, the looping happens between
instances of the signalling application in question - no pure
GIMPS loops are possible.

However, even in the current design, discovery messages are
not handled exactly like IP datagrams, because of the policy
routing/load balancing problem. If a network implements pf/lb in
all its nodes but only some of them are GIMPS aware, discovery
messages will be forwarded according to their IP header in the
GIMPS unaware nodes but according the flow identifier in the
GIMPS aware nodes; therefore, loops are possible. (I think this
could probably be counted a pathological condition but it can't
be ruled out. In particular, such loops, if they did occur, 
probably would not be transient.)

In addition, it is still possible that people may want to build
networks where C-mode associations are used to trunk signalling
messages through GIMPS-only nodes, or there may be other message
routing mechanisms added later (e.g. for the path-decoupled case).
Once we loosen the connection with IP routing, loop prevention at
the GIMPS level becomes a requirement. 

So, loop prevention within GIMPS for looping at level (2) is needed.

How to do loop prevention within GIMPS?
---------------------------------------

We have a choice here between hop counting and route recording.

There are several trade-offs to make here. If we leave aside the
possibility that applications would want route recording for their
own purposes for now, the issue is of which design option is most
appropriate within GIMPS. I think several aspects point at a hop
count being more appropriate:

*) it's fast. loop detection will be being done mainly on
datagram messages discovering the next NSLP-aware hop, and we know
this is a sensitive area for router performance (people would like
to do this "get this message past a node which doesn't care about
it" in the fast path if possible). So, a check&decrement of a 
counter (in the fixed header) is preferable to scanning a route
record for an identity and inserting a new field.

*) we expect looping to be rare (it shouldn't come about through
GIMPS misconfiguration, initially only pathological IP pf/lb 
situations) so detecting it early and efficiently (which a VIA
mechanism would do) is less important than making the cost of the
processing low.

*) it doesn't lead to message expansion. discovery mode messages
are size limited, and adding route records may make them hard to
propagate. or, people might want to start record trimming and so
on.

*) it's simple. we don't have to get into worries about topology
hiding, what namespaces to use for node identities.

So, I would propose to keep the GHC as a loop detection mechanism
within the GIMPS layer. (Obviously, the rules about how to process
it need to be specified more precisely.) This can then also be used
as *one* weapon to handle message looping at the signalling application
layer (since NSLPs can read and set the GHC in their messages).

Should GIMPS provide route recording as a service?
--------------------------------------------------

Despite all this, it is still possible (likely?) that there is 
a use for route recording for various purposes for use by
signalling applications. That may be for loop detection or
something else. Loops may be caused by negotiation loops within
a single instance of a NSLP (between peers or over a longer
distance), or by feedback between microflow and aggregate signalling,
or any other sort of reason, and the GHC may not be suitable or
powerful enough to handle this. We could make a recording mechanism
almost directly out of the comparable functionality in SIP or
Diameter.

However, I think this functionality comes into the same class as
some other items of 'generally useful signalling protocol' function,
like state refresh management or MLPP: it may be useful for several
signalling applications, but doesn't have a significant interaction
with the other functions within GIMPS itself. Exactly how to make
such re-usable components is an interesting question, but our
assumption within NSIS (up to now) is that it is a question for the
signalling application layer, not for the NTLP layer.

I think it's more precise to say that loops are possible, just no 
*infinite* loops. I.e., a packet can circle around the block a few 
times, but it will eventually be dropped on the floor. If the loop is 
tight, it can circle quite a few times.

I don't see how this is different. IP TTL will have the same effect in 
either case. Given that the flow label is part of the header, I'm 
confused by the distinction.

Note that SIP simply chose to do both, since they have complementary 
properties (speed of inspection vs. early discovery and better 
diagnostics). I don't see why we couldn't *allow* (not mandate) that if 
route-recording is used, that entities can inspect this and use it to 
discover loops.

(As a side note: In SIP, we had to deal with 'spirals', where messages 
would visit the same node twice, after modification. I don't think this 
is likely to occur here.)

I respectfully disagree. Since we'd want to be able to record every NTLP 
hop, not just every NSLP hop, it makes sense to offer this as an 
optional service within NTLP.

Hi Allison, John, all,

We have had a first discussion of the comments among the authors and this
is how we see the current status (per comment).

Best regards,
Sven

NSLP comments
=============

1. Need for explicit teardown invoked by the AAA element?

I think aspect is already possible. To clarify, we can extend the
description of what may trigger the NSLP handler with AAA in addition to
e.g. RMF. Teardown by an external element can be handled by a combination
of a NOTIFY and a tearing RESERVE.

2. How is receiver selection based on ADSPEC done if resources are reserved
in the forward direction with RESERVE?

In the current sender-initiated model you can do a QUERY/RESPONSE/RESERVE.
This costs 0.5xRTT more than a PATH/RESV. As possible optimization here
could be to do a QUERY send the RESERVE and RESPONSE in parallel. This
would have no impact on the protocol (only intelligence on the receiver
side). We will provide an example on receiver-initiated reservation in the
next version.

3. some talk about 2-phase operation for RSVP. Any thought of the same for
NSLP?

We discussed about a RESERVE/COMMIT model in QoS NSLP. At the moment, we
feel that this might be solved at the QoS model level which is opaque to
QoS NSLP.

4. Didn't see any way to do resource sharing across flows.

There is, but maybe not for a general case. Two flows with the same session
ID but different flow ID will share resources. This is used in special
cases of mobility and route changes. GIMPS does have some wildcarding of
flow IDs, which would probably get you to the same level of resource
sharing as RSVP (to be checked).

5. Ditto for fate-sharing across flows (if you tear one down you tear the
fate-shared ones down)

Within QoS NSLP, you could regard this as a policy decision taken by a QNE.
However, we could think about a SESSION_FATE_SHARED object similar to
BOUND_SESSION_IP. Is there any interest in fate sharing between different
NSLPs (e.g. qos-nslp/natfw-nslp)?

6. Reservation priority is declared out of scope but is critically
important. We can't just punt this. One thought is to have it be part of a
set of "common facilities" that go across all the GIMPS applications. I bet
there are a number of such common things which are not part of the
transport but aren't specific to a particular signaling appication.

We would like to receive input on this from the WG. Why do they think it is
needed, what are the requirements, ...

7. Is there any capability for make-before-break so that reservations can
be installed on multiple paths at the same time to deal with graceful
mobility? It seems that the notion of flow/session separation captures part
of this, but I don't see how it solves the double-booking problems on the
common links.

We have thought about a possible extensions of the SII object, but
reservations on future paths conflict with the current NSIS charter. With
the current spec, it is not obvious how this functionality could be
provided. An extension of the SII would conceivably impact the GIMPS
requirements as well.

8. How does bi-dir reservation enforce symmetric routing?

At present, we imagine that it should not enforce symmetric routing but
make assumptions on one-end being on the path for both directions (whether
it is sender+receiver initiated reserve, or remote initiated model).
Binding of both reservation would happen at the end points.

9. State refresh reduction (a la rfc2961): this is vital.

We agree with the comment. The current draft hints at a solution with
RESPONSE message. We will make this explicit in the next version.

10. Don't like multiple qos models. (Complicated, and can't work.)

The proposal here is to see what the QoS model draft teams come up with and
clarify exactly what is achieved when the QoS model work has progressed a
bit.

Hi, all,

There should be mailing list discussion for each

Hi Allison,

> There should be mailing list discussion for each=20
> protocol draft of the Early Review comments and how they
> will be addressed.

As mentioned, there have been some discussions already started,
and authors have been discussing the impact of some of the issues
off of the list.=20

I would hope that we could get updated documents out in a reasonable
tine, with the results of the discussions based upon the reviews=20
from IETF 59. I encourage WG members to comment on the reviews were
were made at IETF 59.

thanks,
John

Hi Robert,

I'll cut to the chase and comment on your suggestions:

I'd punt this question up to the NSLP-folks.  Do you see benefits for =
path
recording?  I agree with Robert that it falls into the nice to have
category, but I'd like to know if the NSLPs would like to use such
a feature.

Hi John,

From a QoS NSLP point of view, I would say that record route is useful but
that we would probably use it indirectly to:

1. keep/tear down reservations on old paths or branches

The QoS NSLP draft currently proposes the use of the Source Identification
Information (SII) as a way to detect peer changes at the QoS NSLP and/or as
a way to rapidly tear down old branches (alternatively, it could be used to
keep the reservation of these old branches). The SII is just an identifier
to the QoS NSLP. However, one way to implement it at the GIMPS level would
be a record route. This would ensure that messages can be send on old paths
(instead of keeping state at the nodes, the state is kept in the recorded
route).

2. make reservations on backup paths

Support of record routing begs the question of what to do with explicit
routing (which has already been mentioned in the discussions). Explicit
routing (at the GIMPS layer) would mean that a mechanism is needed to
derive the "route object" via other means than recording it during path
setup. If used for e.g. reservations on backup paths, however, it would
only offer one hop protection and would need to be complemented by an
explicit routing mechanism at the NSLP layer.

Since we are at this point not so much interested in the explicit route per
se, but more in its applications, other mechanisms to do the above would
also be OK.

Best regards,
Sven

Hi All,

Just a short comment: I think, questions 2 and 3 and RSVP-like operation example will be discussed in more detail in Cornelia's control load draft after specifying receiver-initiated reservation in QoS-NSLP.

Hi Attila and all,=20

well, in principle the IntServ Controlled-Load Service and RSVP are =
independent. However when receiver-ini is specified in qos-nslp, I'll =
provide an example in my draft of how to use it for controlled-load. =
This would also include a description of the receiver selecting QoS =
parameters - basically bandwidth in this case - based on the "AdSpec" =
(or whatever the corresponding object is in NSIS - we'll work on this =
when specifying the QSpec)

Regarding RESERVE /COMMIT may be the right place to put this is in one =
of the Common Control Informations since it is going to be usable =
(potentially) by all QoS -signaling- models. I see this as borderline =
between qos-nslp and qos signaling models.=20

[For people familiar with the control info details: RESERVE/COMMIT =
could also be located in the QoS signaling model specific control info, =
i.e. stackable, however defined as part of the "tool box", i.e. =
reusable by several models]

Cornelia

It would be nice. I tried to propose this because in Seoul we agreed that=
 our application drafts should be focused more on signaling models than Q=
oS models.

I agree=20

Since these are regular IP packets, I think it would be a seriously 
broken router that did not decrement the IP TTL for these. The path and 
thus the times-around-the-loop may obviously be different even if the 
two types of packets share parts of the path (diverge and merge).

Spiraling occurs, in general, if the destination address can be changed. 
In SIP, that is the request-URI. In GIMPS, this seems a stretch, but if 
you define a loop as visiting the same place twice, it's at least 
theoretically possible:

(1) A sends packet to B, via the border router R(B)
(2) B changes destination address to C, which
(3) causes the packet to visit the border router again

Thus, the packet visits the same *node* twice, but it's not really a loop.

As far as I can tell, such 'hairpinning' can only occur if the 
destination address can be modified. The solution is simple: record both 
the place visited and the address. A loop requires a duplication of both.

That said, I'm at a loss to conjure up an example where such destination 
address changes have any value. (In SIP, they do, since name translation 
is a core protocol function.) Trying hard, maybe a visit from a CH to a 
HA to the FA would cause such hairpinning.

Debugging. We can indeed define this as an application, but to be 
useful, every NTLP node would always have to support it.

In general, I think it is very useful to be able to tell at the edges 
where a packet or message has been. It makes it much easier to see why 
things happen, particularly for places that you can't really 'touch' easily.

Again based on SIP experience, both trace and source routing have proven 
to be extremely valuable. Indeed, the only complaint has been that we 
should have included more of it earlier. I think it would be a mistake 
not to have this capability. It's hard to add later, since its value is 
mainly that everybody implements it.

I disagree for the reasons stated above. I think the general experience 
with Internet protocols is that having debug functions from the get-go 
makes implementations more robust and more deployable. Kludging things 
later (as in traceroute, since the original IP mechanism is broken) 
tends to yield suboptimal solutions. (Details about why traceroute has 
problems available on request.)

ok - we should distinguish between

*) easy to add later - doesn't change the rest of the protocol 
processing rules

*) hard to add later - it's mainly useful when a high percentage of
the nodes implement it but a lot have been deployed without it

i think the route recording function matches both these. i agree 
with the debugging aspect being important, and important from the 
start (i don't believe the qos-nslp needs that have been mentioned
actually need route recording themselves, i write something about that
later). 

i'd be very happy to see someone define a 'diagnostics NSLP' 
which could even become a MUST/SHOULD to implement along 
with GIMPS (apart from anything else, it would give us a 
non-trivial NSLP to play with). there are probably other 
diagnostic functions that are also needed (some sort of e2e
echo, for example).

Earlier we had an attempt with a simple "traceroute", described in 
http://user.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/~fu/paper/draft-fu-ccamp-traceroute-00.txt 

http://user.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/~fu/paper/IETF-fu-ccamp-traceroute.pdf 
(presentation slides at IETF#57 - CCAMP WG)

We are currently prototyping it. If interested we would be glad to work 
with the team and extend it towards diagnostics NSLP.

Regards,
Xiaoming

I think the teardown decision has to be made with more than a single=20

issues also need to be considered. As what we discussed in the mailing=20

This may not be opaque to QoS NSLP.With this RESERVE/COMMIT model,=20
QoS NSLP should include messages that could do the roll-back action.=20

The resource sharing is only meaningful inside each individual NSLP.
Therefore, the GIMPS may not be able to provide the necessary function
unless it is mandated that the session-ID would be unique across all
the NSLPs.=20

This could be useful if we want to differentiate the flows, and assign
different priority for different flows. In that case, reservation for
the corresponding flows could also be assigned with priority.

Similar to the first question, it also relates to the decision of the =
tear
down.
In this make-before-break case, the reservation over the old path should =
not
be
torn down before the handover finished. Therefore, a method has to be

into the signaling for that.=20

Does this imply that at least one end of the flow would be the QoS NSLP

I think the teardown decision has to be made with more than a single

issues also need to be considered. As what we discussed in the mailing

explicit teardown invoked by AAA element, which is possible. To support the

This may not be opaque to QoS NSLP.With this RESERVE/COMMIT model,
QoS NSLP should include messages that could do the roll-back action.

Sven>> Can you clarify what the impact on QoS NSLP would be? I would
imagine the signalling to look exactly the same from QoS NSLP perspective
with an additional indication to commit resources. It seems that this
difference mainly makes sense for the Resource Management Function (RMF),
which does not participate in QoS NSLP processing anyway.

The resource sharing is only meaningful inside each individual NSLP.
Therefore, the GIMPS may not be able to provide the necessary function
unless it is mandated that the session-ID would be unique across all
the NSLPs.

Sven>> Since the session ID is a large random identifier, why would it be
"less unique" across NSLPs than within one NSLP?

This could be useful if we want to differentiate the flows, and assign
different priority for different flows. In that case, reservation for
the corresponding flows could also be assigned with priority.

Sven>> OK. Do you see it as part of the QoS NSLP or as part of the QoS
model (opaque to QoS NSLP, handled by RMF)?

Similar to the first question, it also relates to the decision of the tear
down.
In this make-before-break case, the reservation over the old path should
not
be
torn down before the handover finished. Therefore, a method has to be
incorporated
into the signaling for that.

As what we discussed earlier, a notification from the MN could be useful

Does this imply that at least one end of the flow would be the QoS NSLP
node?

Sven>> Do you want to support bi-directional reservation for cases where
the first QoS NSLP node on the path is different for the forward and
reverse direction? Bi-directional reservation is mainly an optimization.
Wouldn't you rather leave these "strange" cases unoptimized?

I agree with Dave that 'reservation priority' is critically important to =
add.  IMO there should be a requirement for reservation priority (i.e., =
for emergency services/ETS/E911, etc.) for the NSLP QoS signaling.  The =
'standard Qspec' being worked now by the QoS model draft teams can be =
the vehicle to introduce this.  As requested by John (and the WG), we =
will work out a common Qspec across models, and maximize commonality.

To maximize commonality, I think it preferable to make reservation =
priority a part of the common QoS NSLP rather than part of the =
individual QoS model (opaque to QoS NSLP). =20

As discussed in 'NSIS Network Service Layer Protocol QoS Signaling =
Proof-of-Concept' =
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ash-nsis-nslp-qos-sig-proof-of-=
concept-01.txt, reservation priority is a way to differentiate emergency =
services flows, and assign them a higher priority than normal or =
best-effort priority flows.  Requirements for reservation priority are =
suggested in Section B.4 'Support of Priority & Reliability Attributes':
a. Reliability can be requested in the form of a Priority Class for a =
specific network function, such as CAC priority.
b. There are a limited number of Priority Classes to ensure scalability =
(e.g., 3 classes), such as:
- CAC Priority Class: The urgency with which a service connection is =
desired (e.g., High, Normal, Best Effort).
- Restoration Priority Class: The urgency with which a service requires =
successful restoration under failure conditions (e.g., High, Normal, =
Best Effort).

Regards,
Jerry

I think this depends on whether we want to make the QoS NSLP support
RESERVE/COMMIT or letting individual QoS Model to support that. If the =
QoS
NSLP needs to support it, some information element, e.g. a flag and
corresponding RSN, should be included in the common header of QoS NSLP
messages.=20

If the QoS Model is left to deal with it, the above information could be
placed into QSPEC. Then, the QSPEC should contain an object defined for =
this
purpose.=20

Statistically, it would not be very much "less unique". But since this
feature we want to introduce here depends on the uniqueness of the ID, =
it
should be made explicit. Maybe some guideline should be given in =
framework
stating that different NSLP should use different session-ID. Otherwise, =
in
implementation, a node could conveniently reuse the same session-ID for
different NSLP applications since nothing forbids that.=20

It depends on how the priority would be used. Does it have meaning =
across
the QoS Models? Will there be multiple QoS Model at each node shareing =
the
same RMF? My feeling is that make it part of QoS NSLP may be better or =
it
could be a mandated part of QSPEC.=20



<snip>

Agree. This doesn't have to be the focus at this stage. But should we =
state
clearly that this case is for future development?

best regards

Cheng Hong

i tried to address issues of the session id construction for a long time.
unfortunately, i haven't received too many comments yet. 
a discussion of the importance of a security property called sender
invariance can be found in the current mobility id and also in separate
draft: 
http://www.tschofenig.priv.at/drafts/draft-tschofenig-nsis-sid-00.txt

your comments are highly appreciated.

I agree with Dave that 'reservation priority' is critically important to
add.  IMO there should be a requirement for reservation priority (i.e., for
emergency services/ETS/E911, etc.) for the NSLP QoS signaling.  The
'standard Qspec' being worked now by the QoS model draft teams can be the
vehicle to introduce this.  As requested by John (and the WG), we will work
out a common Qspec across models, and maximize commonality.

To maximize commonality, I think it preferable to make reservation priority
a part of the common QoS NSLP rather than part of the individual QoS model
(opaque to QoS NSLP).

As discussed in 'NSIS Network Service Layer Protocol QoS Signaling
Proof-of-Concept'
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ash-nsis-nslp-qos-sig-proof-of-concept-01.txt
, reservation priority is a way to differentiate emergency services flows,
and assign them a higher priority than normal or best-effort priority
flows.  Requirements for reservation priority are suggested in Section B.4
'Support of Priority & Reliability Attributes':
a. Reliability can be requested in the form of a Priority Class for a
specific network function, such as CAC priority.
b. There are a limited number of Priority Classes to ensure scalability
(e.g., 3 classes), such as:
- CAC Priority Class: The urgency with which a service connection is
desired (e.g., High, Normal, Best Effort).
- Restoration Priority Class: The urgency with which a service requires
successful restoration under failure conditions (e.g., High, Normal, Best
Effort).

Sven>> I agree with you that reservation priority is needed and I believe
that the proposals that you mention are probably a good way of implementing
it if you want to support it. What I am not sure about is whether it should
be part of the QoS NSLP. Even if it is common to multiple QoS models, it
still would only affect the Resource Management Function (RMF) (unlike the
message priority) which makes it outside of the QoS NSLP scope in my
opinion. Anyway, I think it is good that the concept and the potential
solution matures in the QoS model draft team. We can decide when we see
what it turned out to be whether we still want to put it in the QoS NSLP
spec.

Regards,
Jerry

Hi Sven,

I think this depends on whether we want to make the QoS NSLP support
RESERVE/COMMIT or letting individual QoS Model to support that. If the QoS
NSLP needs to support it, some information element, e.g. a flag and
corresponding RSN, should be included in the common header of QoS NSLP
messages.

If the QoS Model is left to deal with it, the above information could be
placed into QSPEC. Then, the QSPEC should contain an object defined for
this
purpose.

Sven>> Agreed. But what did you mean with the rollback action?

Statistically, it would not be very much "less unique". But since this
feature we want to introduce here depends on the uniqueness of the ID, it
should be made explicit. Maybe some guideline should be given in framework
stating that different NSLP should use different session-ID. Otherwise, in
implementation, a node could conveniently reuse the same session-ID for
different NSLP applications since nothing forbids that.

Sven>> OK, that would be a possibility: A node SHOULD NOT reuse the same
session ID for different NSLPs.

It depends on how the priority would be used. Does it have meaning across
the QoS Models? Will there be multiple QoS Model at each node shareing the
same RMF? My feeling is that make it part of QoS NSLP may be better or it
could be a mandated part of QSPEC.

Sven>> In either case, I think the topic is now taken up by the QoS model
draft team which would be the right place for either of these outcomes. We
can decide where to put it based on the solution they propose.

Agree. This doesn't have to be the focus at this stage. But should we state
clearly that this case is for future development?

Sven>> It can be listed as a case for future investigation.

Resume of George W. Bush
February 26, 2004, 05:15 PM

Past Work Experience:
I ran for U.S. Congress and lost. I produced a Hollywood slasher B movie. I bought an oil company, but couldn't find any oil in Texas; the company went bankrupt shortly after I sold all my stock. I bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal that took land using taxpayer money. With my father's help and name, I was elected Governor of Texas. 

Accomplishments as Governor:
I changed pollution laws in favor of the power and oil companies and made Texas the most polluted state in the Union. I replaced Los Angeles with Houston as the most smog-ridden city in America. I cut taxes and bankrupted Texas government to the tune of billions in borrowed money. I set the record for the most executions by any Governor in American history. I became U.S. President after losing the popular vote by over 500,000 votes with the help of major Enron money and my father's appointments to the Supreme Court.

Accomplishments as President:
I spent the U.S. surplus and effectively bankrupted the U.S. Treasury. I entered my office with the strongest economy in U.S. history and have turned every single economic category downward -- all in less than two years. I shattered the record for the largest annual deficit in U.S. history. I garnered the most sympathy for the U.S. after the World Trade Center attacks and less than a year later made the U.S. the most resented country in the world, possibly the largest failure of diplomacy in World history. I am the first president in U.S. history to enter office with a criminal record. I set the the all-time record for most days on vacation in any one year period. I am supporting development of a "Tactical Bunker Buster" nuke, a WMD. I am getting our troops killed, under the lie of Saddam's procurement of Yellow Cake Nuke WMD components, then blaming the lie on our British friends. I set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips by a U.S. president. In my first year in!
  office over 2-million Americans l

Records and References:
I have at least one conviction for drunk driving in Maine. My Texas driving record has been erased and is not available. I was AWOL from the National Guard. I refuse to take a drug test or even answer any questions about drug use. All records of my tenure as Governor of Texas are now in my father's library, sealed, and unavailable for public view. All records of SEC investigations into insider trading or bankrupt companies are sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public view. All records or minutes from meetings that I, or my Vice-President, attended regarding public energy policy are sealed in secrecy and unavailable for public review.

Please consider my experience when voting in 2004.

Show you care about our country's future and forward this to every voter you know.  Protest is patriotism.

Sven,

Here is another reason why reservation priority should be given strong
consideration for inclusion in the QoS NSLP. Suppose an emergency
service session is being initiated through SIP. Currently, SIP does not
support the prioritization of session initiation and hence, some work
needs to be done in SIP to permit this (e.g., inclusion of resource
priority headers). Once this is defined, the interaction between SIP and
other protocols such as RSVP-TE will need to transfer the priority level
of the initiated session. Having reservation priority as an integral
part of QoS NSLP will greatly facilitate such interactions.

I agree with Dave that 'reservation priority' is critically important to
add.  IMO there should be a requirement for reservation priority (i.e.,
for
emergency services/ETS/E911, etc.) for the NSLP QoS signaling.  The
'standard Qspec' being worked now by the QoS model draft teams can be
the
vehicle to introduce this.  As requested by John (and the WG), we will
work
out a common Qspec across models, and maximize commonality.

To maximize commonality, I think it preferable to make reservation
priority
a part of the common QoS NSLP rather than part of the individual QoS
model
(opaque to QoS NSLP).

As discussed in 'NSIS Network Service Layer Protocol QoS Signaling
Proof-of-Concept'
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ash-nsis-nslp-qos-sig-proof-of
-concept-01.txt
, reservation priority is a way to differentiate emergency services
flows,
and assign them a higher priority than normal or best-effort priority
flows.  Requirements for reservation priority are suggested in Section
B.4
'Support of Priority & Reliability Attributes':
a. Reliability can be requested in the form of a Priority Class for a
specific network function, such as CAC priority.
b. There are a limited number of Priority Classes to ensure scalability
(e.g., 3 classes), such as:
- CAC Priority Class: The urgency with which a service connection is
desired (e.g., High, Normal, Best Effort).
- Restoration Priority Class: The urgency with which a service requires
successful restoration under failure conditions (e.g., High, Normal,
Best
Effort).

Sven>> I agree with you that reservation priority is needed and I
believe
that the proposals that you mention are probably a good way of
implementing
it if you want to support it. What I am not sure about is whether it
should
be part of the QoS NSLP. Even if it is common to multiple QoS models, it
still would only affect the Resource Management Function (RMF) (unlike
the
message priority) which makes it outside of the QoS NSLP scope in my
opinion. Anyway, I think it is good that the concept and the potential
solution matures in the QoS model draft team. We can decide when we see
what it turned out to be whether we still want to put it in the QoS NSLP
spec.

Folks:

Here is the IETF draft what SIP is doing for the resources priority:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sip-resource-priority-03.
txt

Considering the above, NSIS WG can also decide what needs to be done for
development of NSIS protocols.

At the TSVWG WG in Seoul, Fred Baker presented issues on Multi-Level=20
Preemption and Precedence:

I think we may like to consider similar functionality in the NTLP, as
this seems to be relevant to many applicaitons NSIS may serve.

dear all,

[trying to structure this rather long thread a little:]

I think we could probably say that there is general agreement
that 'priority and preemption should not be ignored' (which
I think was the force of Dave's original comment).

However, I'm still pretty confused about whether there is a
single consensus meaning of the words, and I still don't 
think I've seen (or understood) arguments for putting such
handling low rather than high in the overall NSIS architecture.
(There are at least 4 choices: in the NTLP; in some 'common part' 
of NSLPs if we give up the view that NSLPs should be entirely 
independent; in each NSLP; or in the resource descriptions [QoS
Models] in the case of the QoS-NSLP.)

My main concern is that priority/pre-emption are actually 
complex concepts, and trying to force all applications (or even
QoS models) into the same structure will probably fail. For 
example:
*) the draft-ash-... discusses [I think] two priorities, for
CAC (checked at admission) and restoration (after failure).
*) RFC3181 [I think] decomposes the CAC priority into one
value checked when the call is admitted, and another value
describing how strongly to defend a call after it has been
admitted.
*) In the mobile environment, a distinction is made between the
priority for an entirely new call, compared to one where new
resources are needed because of a handover. (In NSIS terms:
does the concept of priority apply to flows or sessions?)

In addition, while these concepts may be well understood for
QoS, and the *concept* of priority may be well understood for
NATs (i.e. contention for the address pool), do we really have
any confidence that the actual definitions derived from a QoS
perspective carry over to the NAT world? Is restoration at the
per-flow level meaningful to describe? Do we even want to think
about a protocol which implies the ability to pre-empt an address?

For these reasons, I would say that putting priority and 
pre-emption concepts in the NTLP is (politely) not a good idea:
either we have to go through a *long* activity to define a fully
functional MLPP object, or we have a simple one but accept that
MLPP objects will appear at multiples layers (yuk). And all this
for something which as far as I can tell has no interactions with
the other functionality inside the NTLP.

So far as the QoS NSLP is concerned, I think the current approach
of attacking the problem via the QoS models is a good one. (One 
implication of this is that it should consider 3181 as one of the
inputs.) However, even here, I don't see what are the real arguments
for making the MLPP aspects part of the base protocol - is it because
there are strong interactions with the other parts of the protocol?
- or to make implementations easier? - or to make interactions with
SIP well defined? (But 3312 AFAIK puts the priority aspects inside
SDP with the other session parameters, and this would also tend to 
correlate with putting priority aspects in the QM, at least to me.)
More discussion is needed here.

dear all,

Basically I think I agree with Sven on this issue: two-phase
operation can/should be done in the QoS-Model (maybe in a generic
way); or, in any case, it doesn't need to be built into the
protocol operation.

The specifics depend on what is really assumed to be the
semantic of the Phase-I-RESERVE. 

a) If it means "would resources be available right now?"
then this can be implemented quite happily with a QUERY of
some sort (I assume). The initiator has to take the chance
that the answer may change between the Phase-I message and
actually installing the reservation in Phase-II.

b) If it means "I would like the following resources to be
guaranteed available when I ask for them" then this implies 
creating some state in the network representing the guarantee.
But then the state installed by the Phase-I message has to
be managed just like any other reservation state, and that 
includes e.g. handling path changes, teardown/rollback and
so on. So if you do decide to represent two phase operation
non-opaquely in the QoS-NSLP (e.g. as separate RESERVE and
COMMIT messages) then all these state handling rules will have
to be worked out for both (as well as the interactions between
the two). Keeping two-phase operation opaque to the NSLP would
seem to be much easier.

There *are* some respects in which a Phase-I message could
usefully be processed differently from a Phase-II message.
Specifically, during Phase-I, you only need to know which
outgoing interface a reservation applies to, whereas in Phase-II
you need to know which specific packets are affected. If this
matters (e.g. you want to send a Phase-I message before you
know all the information about port numbers), this would imply
changing some information objects - even the flow identifier
at the GIMPS level - between messages. But it's precisely for
this sort of reason that we have the Session ID and that we
allow flow identifiers to change mid-session. (Maybe this use
case needs to be worked out in a bit more detail, but it seems
OK at first sight.)

I believe I advocated putting it in a "common semantics" section of the=20
NSLPs. The justification was/is threefold:
a) what is being "prioritized" and possibly "preempted" where there is=20
resource contention are those resources themselves and not transport state=20
or the resources of the transport itself. This argues for these functions=20
to be "above" the transport".
b) when resources are to be considered for preemption, those resources may=20
be of different sorts and for different NSLPs (e.g. QoS classifiers,=20
firewall pinholes, NAT translation entries). Having different semantics for =

identifying and computing ordering of different resource types is=20
inconvenient at best and a recipe for incoherent preemption operation at=20
worst. This argues for putting these functions below the individual NSLPs.
c) the semantics and operational characteristics of preemption are=20
reasonably well understood from prior work in MPLS and RSVP. It seems=20
unlikely that there would be substantially different methodologies needed=20
for different NSIS applications. I of course can't prove this, but one=20
would think that by now some kind of counter-example would have emerged for =

the need for different preemption behavior for different kinds of resources =

for the same higher-level application usages.

I think part of the problem is in fact that people try to make this too=20
complicated! Often the difference among schemes is due to random people=20
redesigning things that don't need to be redesigned rather than from any=20
underlying difference in requirements.

If these are different I must be failing to see the subtleties...

No, but do we have a counter-example? Sometimes it's best to be guided by=20
intuition based on experience with existing resource preemption schemes=20
that have or have not worked in the past.

> Is restoration at the

Is this rhetorical? It's like asking if per-flow QoS makes sense when=20
resources are only allocated in aggregates. Pre-emption behavior is (I=20
think) well defined in these cases. What gets complicated are the policy=20
issues around choosing the state to preempt when the choice is=20
non-deterministic (as are many interesting cases). However, these issues to =

not affect the protocol - they are local algorithms.

Note: what does affect the protocol is the need to communicate fate-sharing =

and some possible intermediate states for resources which are fate-shared.=20
I have a talk on this subject which I've been giving the last couple of=20
months and have some suggestions for how to handle this. I briefly alluded=20
to this in the NSIS meeting where I proposed that we need both explicit=20
"resource sharing" identifiers and "fate-sharing" identifiers for=20
resources. I would claim that these two things are also elements that=20
belong in some commmon layer above the transport and below the individual=20
NSLPs.

Yes, why not? It already happens when translation entries get reused - all=20
we're doing is explicitly signaling and hence making the system work =
better!

I agree that it does not belong in the transport itself, for the reasons I=20

First, I don't see why this has to be long and complicated. We have good=20
existing work to guide us. Second, I suspect that if we have something well =

designed there will not in fact be a need for custom stuff in individual=20
NSLPs. The benefit of consistent preemption behavior across resource types=20
should (in my mind anyway) outweigh the per-application optimizations=20
people always seem to want for dubious reasons.

Also agree on this.

You lost me on this one. I don't see how QoS models help or hinder the=20
ability to do preemption. Try again?

No, it's because a single end-to-end application doing NSIS signaling may=20
have multiple resource types from multiple NSLPs allocated and it needs to=20
be able to communicate the preemption properties it wants for those things=20
in a consistent way. This becomes even more critical once we peel the onion =

one more layer and look at fate sharing, where the resource identifiers and =

their preemption-properties need to be communicated in application=20
protocols as well as in NSIS.

Certainly don't disagree that more discussion is useful.

Terminology collision alert:

In most distributed systems, "two-phase operation" tends to mean separate=20
reserve/commit phases, as opposed to what seems to be discussed here. In=20
the NSIS universe, this translates into the reserve phase actually setting=20
the resources aside and doing admission control, but not actually=20
installing the state in the data plane. Only when the commit phase is=20
executed is data plane state installed. (there are elaborations where the=20
reserve phase installs some "negative" data plane state but I won't=20
complicate this thread by going into that).

Don't know quite what to do about this, other than to point out that I=20
would like to make sure we can do reserve/commit phases in NSIS since they=20
are arguably needed to avoid certain theft-of-serivce scenarios. That said, =

I suspect reserve/commit two-phase operation DOES affect the NSLP protocol=20
state machines and can't be finessed with QoS models - the state needs to=20
be explicitly modeled as part of the NSLP itself.

I don't have a strong opinion on whether separate "how much resource is=20
available" and "please reserve resources" phases are needed or not. We=20
don't have any implementation experience with the RSVP ADSPEC scheme to=20
have a basis for comparison.

Dave.

Dave,

(extracting from your text below): so far as I can tell,

> the reserve phase actually setting 
> the resources aside and doing admission control, but not actually 
> installing the state in the data plane. Only when the commit phase is 
> executed is data plane state installed.

is the same as my case (b), and

> available" and "please reserve resources" phases

is my case (a). I quite agree that these are totally different
(but sometimes I still can't tell which one people are referring to,
hence i put them both in). Or is there yet another possible meaning
which I have missed?

I agree also that (b) is the more interesting one (if it is the
same as what you are asking for).

On the question of whether the state handling to provide it interacts 
with the rest of the QoS-NSLP state handling (and has to be visible 
to it), at the moment I just don't see what the problems are - in 
fact, I only see problems doing it the other way. Maybe some
more examples would help (e.g. do you have pointers to the 
theft-of-service scenarios you mention?)

Dave,

I think we (you & me) are in agreement on not wanting this stuff
in the transport, so I've snipped those bits and we can wait to 
see if someone still wants to re-open the question.

agree here.

this is a good point.

I think there is just very little practical experience except 
from the case of the 'bandwidth' type of resource, so little
chance for a counter-example to arise. We return to this below...

OK: my concern is that once you open even a small can of worms, 
sometimes the result is that people join the discussion by 
just bringing more worms. If there was a consensus simple definition
of priority and pre-emption that everyone could agree on, most
of my worries would evaporate.

So far as I can tell, restoration priority in the ITU sense is
not the same concept as holding ("defending") priority in the 
RSVP/3181 sense: in the 3181 model, during CAC, the preemption 
priority of the new flow is compared with defending priority of
existing flows, so both priorities are CAC-related. There is no 
separate concept of restoration priority in 3181 (at least, that
I can find.)

Note I'm not asserting that you definitely need to have 3 priority
values (e.g. that restoration priority can't be derived from the
other two), only that work would need to be done to understand 
and normalise the already existing set of concepts. And I don't
know how long that would take.

see above (I may be finding subtleties where there are none).

Again, I think this is a separate concept: essentially, there
are two different reasons why you might need new resources on
an interface:
1. because there is a new session ("call") in the network, or
2. because there an existing session which is starting to use
   a new interface (e.g. because of a mobile node having moved),
   which is then higher priority than case (1).
This seems like the same reasoning behing preemption and defending
priorities (the ordering typically assumed is the same); however,
in case (2), you would be using the defending priority of the
handed-over flow to decide whether to admit it at the new node. 
So it is at least a different algorithm.

It's sort of rhetorical: the analogue of restoration in the QoS sense
would presumably be that a NAT has some public address space, which
it then loses, and attempts to restore. If it gets the same addresses
back (or some of them) it would just allow them to continue to be used;
if the new public addresses are different, it would surely be up to
endpoints to reestablish sessions anyway. The fundamental difference
from QoS is that the QoS resource - once allocated - is not structurally
bound to that flow, it's only bound inside the node doing the allocation,
and that node can swap resources between flows while only causing a 
performance change. NATs have much less freedom about re-allocating
already allocated resources.

(Of course, you could solve this particular issue by saying 'NATs ignore
restoration priority' - if the generic object has such a thing in 
the first place. But it's just an example of where different resource
structures lead to different priority processing.)

I just imagine certain security concerns...

This would be nice (could be a persuasive argument, in the right
hands...)

2nd try: brain-work is under way inside the QoS-Model 'team'
to understand the problem better and to establish what the common
features are (at least for the QoS application). When we see the
results of that work we will have made some progress. (We don't
have people working on the cross-NSLP aspects, though.)

Good point (again).

Hi Sven, 

If WG decides that we need reservation priority, I think, it is common feature for QoS models, so it should be defined in QoS NSLP.

I agree with Dave that 'reservation priority' is critically important to
add.  IMO there should be a requirement for reservation priority (i.e., for
emergency services/ETS/E911, etc.) for the NSLP QoS signaling.  The
'standard Qspec' being worked now by the QoS model draft teams can be the
vehicle to introduce this.  As requested by John (and the WG), we will work
out a common Qspec across models, and maximize commonality.

To maximize commonality, I think it preferable to make reservation priority
a part of the common QoS NSLP rather than part of the individual QoS model
(opaque to QoS NSLP).

As discussed in 'NSIS Network Service Layer Protocol QoS Signaling
Proof-of-Concept'
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ash-nsis-nslp-qos-sig-proof-of-concept-01.txt
, reservation priority is a way to differentiate emergency services flows,
and assign them a higher priority than normal or best-effort priority
flows.  Requirements for reservation priority are suggested in Section B.4
'Support of Priority & Reliability Attributes':
a. Reliability can be requested in the form of a Priority Class for a
specific network function, such as CAC priority.
b. There are a limited number of Priority Classes to ensure scalability
(e.g., 3 classes), such as:
- CAC Priority Class: The urgency with which a service connection is
desired (e.g., High, Normal, Best Effort).
- Restoration Priority Class: The urgency with which a service requires
successful restoration under failure conditions (e.g., High, Normal, Best
Effort).

Sven>> I agree with you that reservation priority is needed and I believe
that the proposals that you mention are probably a good way of implementing
it if you want to support it. What I am not sure about is whether it should
be part of the QoS NSLP. Even if it is common to multiple QoS models, it
still would only affect the Resource Management Function (RMF) (unlike the
message priority) which makes it outside of the QoS NSLP scope in my
opinion. Anyway, I think it is good that the concept and the potential
solution matures in the QoS model draft team. We can decide when we see
what it turned out to be whether we still want to put it in the QoS NSLP
spec.

Regards,
Jerry

Just from a programmer's view:

In TCP, connections are duplex but conceptually "uni-directional" 
between a server and a client: once a connection is set up, data can be 
sent by the server back toward the client, but the control is in the 
client side (i.e., these data are sent when the server passively 
acquires a request from the client). Of course with some tricks in 
programming, a true uni-directionality can be made possible, but at cost 
of possibly more complex socket operation. As a tradeoff, another 
connection - we just need one connection in maximum per direction 
between a GIMPS-peer pair - in the reverse direction could be an viable 
option.

> D-mode messages always include the Node-Addressing of the

If the data does not concern with any other nodes in between these two 
D-mode peers (e.g., just to acknowledge the previous D- sender), this 
can work. However, if in the reverse way changing something in the 
middle is desired, we have to rely on PHOP info as in RSVP.

Cheers,
Xiaoming

One of the main goals of RMD is to have a very simple resource reservation in interior nodes, therefore all QoS parameters have to be translated into resource units, also delay. This means that reservation may has to be made for peak rate. The number of reource units that has to be reserved for an incoming resoure request depends also on the traffic model used and we see it as an ortogonal problem to the signalling.

Not exactly, there is not a timer for each flow. In reservation based method we use a sliding window algorithm. The window size is the refresh period and it is divided into N time slots. The window is moved by these time steps. The number of refreshed units and new reservations are counted in each window and the reservation is increased by the difference of these two. Therefore the stored states scales with N.

The RMD QoS-NSLP model relies on the (intra-domain) security associations provided by the QoS-NSLP protocol.

This is inherited from QoS-NSLP, now I see that it is called REFRESH_PERIOD in the QoS NSLP draft. It is the same as TIME_VALUES of RSVP.

No, this was not our purpose. But it is possible to configure an interior node to operate also as an edge node. In that situation additional functionalities have to be included, e.g., when and how the node is used as interior and when as an edge node.

The main reason is the transport of messages. Most of the RMD QoS NSLP messages 
should be transported in datagram mode, e2e messages usually need reliable transport.

due to some formating problems (too long lines) in version 03 you see a
large number of modifications although they really aren't. 

we would like to thank richard graveman for his detailed review and michael
richardson for his recently posted comments. we have incorporated some of
them while others are left for further discussion. 

if you have some comments please let us know (before monday).

reading their papers i got the impression that they also follow the first
approach. maybe i should also discuss this issue with them. 
tls uses algorithms which are not negotiated by ike. hence, i think you have
no other choice than defining a new doi.

i like the work of the msec working group. the interest in multicast
signaling approaches (in case of nsis) is quite low. 
do you plan to take a closer look at it?

the point is that even if your network never loops an 'ordinary'
IP packet, GIMPS packets might loop because they go through a 
different forwarding process from ordinary packets. (e.g. if there
was a routing policy in place in the network about DCCP traffic
being routed a special way, a discovery message relating to a DCCP
flow would be routed like DCCP traffic in a GIMPS aware node, but
like non-DCCP traffic in a GIMPS-unaware node).

what is currently unstated is how the IP TTL is handled in 'forwarded'
discovery messages. if it is decremented just as if the packet
were being forwarded at the IP layer, this will also sort out
loops as you say.

i agree - if GIMPS had a route recording capability, there is no
reason not to allow it to be used for loop detection.

it was partly the question of how GIMPS would know how to distinguish
a loop from a spiral which made me cautious here. i agree that SIP-like
spiralling seems less likely (but maybe that's just because we haven't
thought of all the signalling applications yet...)

why would one want to record every NTLP hop? this sounds to me more
like a signalling application ("clever traceroute") in its own right.

this is really a question of what people want (and don't want).
my reasoning is:
- everyone would like to keep the NTLP simple (i.e. not put in extra
  functions)
- route recording could get complicated to specify and implement
- route recording seems to have minimal or no interactions with 
  other NTLP functions (so it would be easy to add later)

I think a possible approach would be to wait for someone to write
a proposal for a route recording object and a set of processing rules.
then we could see how it fit into the current GIMPS design, and also
how it matched the requirements of different signalling applications.
in the meantime, not thinking about it doesn't seem to be too risky
a path to take.

Hi,

since it seems that there is a need for some analysis and pointers 
to inter-domain issues, could those people interested in this issue 
(namely Roland, Rute, Hermann) provide the text and list of references? 
Please try to be objective, rather than subjective...;)

Current Section 6.5 could be turned into Section 7 "Inter-domain 
Protocols", for example. I would need the text this week.

Regards,
Jukka

hi Lee,
 
I agree with Nary that more details are neccessary. See some comments in lines :

[S-H] We assume that the MOBILITY object can be part of the NTLP information in mobile scenarios, so it can be sent to the CRN by a peer discovery message after handover. If the interactions with CARD & CT are considered, the MOBILITY object can also be transferred from an OAR to the CRN by the CT during handover. 
We also assume that a peer discovery message is sent between NTLP nodes after handover, and afterward the mQoS-NSLP state can be re-established fast through the CRN. 

[herve] Peer discovery is only be done between NTLP peer. In case CRN is not the next/previous NTLP node, peer discovery can not be used to detect CRN.

[S-H] After a route change caused by mobility, an NSIS node can set up the NTLP state along the new path by peer discovery. That is, if an NSIS node has two different NTLP states with the same mQoS-NSLP and session identifier, it can be an appropriate CRN. Note that an NSIS-aware CRN should be a merging point of the old and new paths, which should have two different (old and new) NTLP states.

[herve] You defined NTLP states ? How does NTLP node identify its own state (NTLP state) ?

[S-H] We mentioned that the CRN itself could be considered dead when it was temporarily or permanently disconnected from the network due to the failure of communication links (or processors), system rebooting, or node congestion. It is also possible that the NTLP of CRN does not work properly (in this case, the CRN can also be considered dead). Dead peer discovery
can be considered as an extension to the peer discovery.

[herve] Peer discovery is sent following the downstream toward NR (using flow routing). If a node on the data path dies, nothing can be done because the node sending PD request will never receive ACK, it fails to detect next peer. How can it find a new next peer ? In the upstream path, it is not the same. Your dead peer discovery looks like a keep-alive notification. Right ? More details, please.

	Title		: Interactions of Routing and Mobility on NTLP and NSLP
	Author(s)	: R. Hancock, J. Manner, C. Shen
	Filename	: draft-hancock-nsis-routing-mobility-00.txt
	Pages		: 36
	Date		: 2003-10-23
	
IP packet routing and changes in routes can have major influence on
protocols and services that set state in network nodes. Routing may
change, for example, due to node failure within the network, need for load balancing, multihoming or due to end-host or even network mobility. This draft is a first step in helping us to decide on how these problems should be handled and how interactions with other protocols should be handled and a stimulus to further security work.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Next Steps in Signaling Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: NSLP for Quality-of-Service signaling
	Author(s)	: S. Van den Bosch
	Filename	: draft-ietf-nsis-qos-nslp-02.txt
	Pages		: 68
	Date		: 2004-2-18
	
This draft describes an NSIS Signaling Layer Protocol (NSLP) for 
signaling QoS reservations in the Internet. It is in accordance with 
the framework and requirements developed in NSIS. 
Together with the NTLP, it provides functionality similar to RSVP and 
extends it. The QoS-NSLP is independent of the underlying QoS 
specification or architecture and provides support for different 
reservation models. It is simplified by the elimination of support 
for multicast flows. 
This version of the draft focuses on the basic protocol structure. It 
identifies the different message types and describes the basic 
operation of the protocol to create, refresh, modify and teardown a 
reservation or to obtain information on the characteristics of the 
associated data path.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Next Steps in Signaling Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: GIMPS:  General Internet Messaging Protocol for Signaling
	Author(s)	: H. Schulzrinne
	Filename	: draft-ietf-nsis-ntlp-01.txt
	Pages		: 64
	Date		: 2004-2-18
	
This document specifies protocol stacks for the routing and transport
   of per-flow signaling messages along the path taken by that flow
   through the network. The solution uses existing transport and
   security protocols under a common messaging layer, the Generic
   Internet Messaging Protocol for Signaling (GIMPS), which provides a
   universal service for diverse signaling applications. GIMPS does not
   handle signaling application state itself, but manages its own
   internal state and the configuration of the underlying transport and
   security protocols to enable the transfer of messages in both
   directions along the flow path. The combination of GIMPS and the
   lower layer protocols provides a solution for the base protocol
   component of the 'Next Steps in Signaling' framework.

hi john, all,

For info, we (me & Henning) made some rough plans in Seoul 
about what would be good targets for the next stage or two on
GIMPS. People could comment on the following list (or even
contribute!)

*) a review to look for nice-to-have functionality to remove.
*) set up common guidelines on message formats (with the NSLP
people).
*) define some sort of (abstracted) API between NSLPs and
GIMPS (not technically part of the standard but necessary to
clarify some of our thinking).
*) clarify what bits of NAT handling functionality go where
(in conjunction with the NATFW NSLP people), and whether the
NATFW NSLP has any special requirements on GIMPS.
*) start work on some of the error conditions (reboot handling,
last-node problem and so on).

So far as mechanisms for progress are concerned, I can 
certainly see the value in something like an interim, if 
enough people want to come (I'm less of a fan of wide-open
conference calls until we have really precisely defined
issues to be finalised, but that may just be a personal 
issue). 

Siemens would be happy to host such a meeting in Europe,
probably the UK. May is a nice month here, at least 
sometimes. In the meantime, any input on the current draft 
would of course be appreciated...

Yours,

Robert H.
