Hi Greg,

this is a timely topic to be tackled for both the PCE and GMPLS WGs, and
well worth supporting. I would like to highlight that the renewed
interest in this work by carriers is sparked by the fact that there is
new optical equipment moving into the network, both in the core as well
as in the metro/aggregation area which needs management and
configuration. There is no intention to implement fast optical switching
at large scale, except during failure recovery and for planned
maintenance etc which would affect the IGP stability. Dimitri's remark
during the GMPLS WG meeting showed me that it might be necessary to
emphasize that position.

Regards,

Michael

Hi CCAMPer's and PCEr's, we have just published a new draft on the=20
"Applicability of GMPLS and PCE to Wavelength Switched Optical=20
Networks" =20
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bernstein-ccamp-wavelength-swi
tched-00.txt=20
.

This draft looks at optical networks that include tunable lasers and=20
ROADM (reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexers) with no or limited=20
wavelength conversion capability (these components are defined in the=20
draft).=20
These limitations lead to the RWA (routing and wavelength assignment)=20
problem which is a bit more demanding in terms of input information and=20
computation than other constrained path computation problems.  In the=20
draft we look at the implications for GMPLS signaling, GMPLS routing,=20
and PCE protocols and suggest some potential extensions to better=20
accommodate this application.

We'd appreciate feedback/collaboration on (a) overall interest in this=20
application, (b) requirements discussions, and (c) solution/extension=20
discussions.

Cheers

Greg B.

Hello all,

 

I have a little comment/suggestion on PCEP regarding the request Id.

In section 7.3.1 states that

"The Request-ID-number value combined with the source IP address of the PCC
and the PCE address uniquely 

identify the path computation request context".

 

I agree with that, however there may be 2 requests with same request Id
exchanged on the same session in 

the case of session between 2 PCEs. 

One Path Request being sent by PCE#1 to PCE#2 and the other one by PCE#2 to
PCE#1.

 

I don't think there is any problem with that but I am a little concerned
about potential misinterpretation especially

in PCErr and PCNotif message.

If a PCNtf/PCErr message contains an RP object, nothing indicates if it is
related to the Request from PCE#1 to PCE#2

or the one from PCE#2 to PCE#1, except the notification/error type and
value.

I guess this is why for instance for the "Pending Request cancelled"
notification there are 2 values. One for PCC and

one for the PCE.

 

One of the problem, from an implementation perspective, is that we must
first ready the Notification type/value in order to retrieve

the correct PathRequest.

Another problem is if an implementation does not recognize a given Error
type/value, then it can't tell for sure which PathRequest it

is related to.

 

So it seems to me it would be more consistent to add a bit in the RP object
(in the flag field) to indicate the

"direction" of the PathRequest.

For instance if the bit is set the Message that carry the RP object is
related to the request sent by the destination of the message.

 

Hence, an RP object would actually uniquely indentifies a PathRequest.

 

Regards

Fabien Verhaeghe

Hi,

In June this year, the ITU-T Study Group 15 sent us a revised copy of their 
work plan for Optical Transport Network topics. You can see their liaison 
and the work plan at 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/documents/LIAISON/file451.doc. You can cut 
straight to the work plan at 
http://www.itu.int/dms_pub/itu-t/oth/09/01/T09010000010001MSWE.doc.

It is interesting to look through this plan to check for any overlap or 
conflict.

Table 7-1-2 is a long list of IETF drafts and RFCs that are related to the 
work being done by SG15. In addition to periodic emails to notify SG15 of 
new RFCs, we also comment on the content of this table from time to time.

At the moment I can see nothing in the work plan that requires immediate 
comment, but please check for yourselves if you are interested or concerned.

Otherwise, I will send the following simple liaison on 18th August.

Thanks,
Adrian

To: ITU-T Q3/15
From: IETF CCAMP and PCE working groups
In response
Subject: Your OTNT Work Plan

Thank you for continuing to share your OTNT work plan through your liaison 
from your June plenary in Geneva. I have made the IETF's CCAMP and PCE 
working groups aware of the work plan, and at this time we do not have any 
issues or concerns to raise resulting from the content of the plan.

Please note that the publication of new RFCs related to the optical control 
plane are notified to SG15 through separate liaisons from time to time, and 
you may wish to update table 7-1-2 accordingly. Please keep us informed as 
your work plan evolves.

Best regards,
Adrian Farrel
IETF Liaison to the ITU-T SG15 on Optical Control Plane

Hi,

The meeting in Chicago was broadly in support of adopting two I-Ds as 
working group drafts:

- Encoding of Objective Functions in Path Computation Element (PCE)
  communication and discovery protocols
  draft-leroux-pce-of-01.txt

- Diff-Serv Aware Class Type Object for Path Computation Element
  Communication Protocol draft-sivabalan-pce-dste-01.txt

Can you please indicate your opinion.


Now that the inter-AS requirements work is stable, the authors of two I-Ds 
related to the use of PCE for P2MP path computations (Adrian is one of the 
authors) have asked us to look at adopting this work. We think that a little 
more discussion is needed first, and have asked them to present the I-Ds in 
Vancouver so that we can make a decision immediately afterwards. Please have 
a look at the I-Ds and send your comments to the mailing list.

- PCC-PCE Communication Requirements for Point to Multipoint
  Multiprotocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE)
  draft-yasukawa-pce-p2mp-req-02.txt

- Applicability of the Path Computation Element (PCE) to
   Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP) Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)
   and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE)
   draft-yasukawa-pce-p2mp-app-00.txt

Thanks,
JP and Adrian

Yes, I support this work. 
One question:
There are 6 OFs are mandatory, so PCE may not need to advertise these 6 OFs to PCC, and PCC can assume that PCE should support these 6 OFs. If PCE does not, then the error message should be sent to PCC. Is this implied in this draft?

Actually no. What is mandatory is the capability to encode these six OF, =
and not the support of these six OF on the PCE.

Also have a look at section 8.1:=20

"Also note that it is not mandatory for an implementation to support=20
all objective functions defined in section 5."

Hope this clarifies.

Subject: [Pce] New PCE working group I-Ds

To: <pce@ietf.org>

Hi,

 

The meeting in Chicago was broadly in support of adopting two I-Ds as
working group drafts:

 

- Encoding of Objective Functions in Path Computation Element (PCE)

  communication and discovery protocols

  draft-leroux-pce-of-01.txt

 

- Diff-Serv Aware Class Type Object for Path Computation Element

  Communication Protocol draft-sivabalan-pce-dste-01.txt

 

Can you please indicate your opinion.

 

 

Now that the inter-AS requirements work is stable, the authors of two I-Ds
related to the use of PCE for P2MP path computations (Adrian is one of the

authors) have asked us to look at adopting this work. We think that a little
more discussion is needed first, and have asked them to present the I-Ds in
Vancouver so that we can make a decision immediately afterwards. Please have
a look at the I-Ds and send your comments to the mailing list.

 

- PCC-PCE Communication Requirements for Point to Multipoint

  Multiprotocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE)

  draft-yasukawa-pce-p2mp-req-02.txt

 

- Applicability of the Path Computation Element (PCE) to

   Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP) Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)

   and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE)

   draft-yasukawa-pce-p2mp-app-00.txt

 

Thanks,

JP and Adrian

Subject: [Pce] New PCE working group I-Ds

Hi,

The meeting in Chicago was broadly in support of adopting two I-Ds as 
working group drafts:

- Encoding of Objective Functions in Path Computation Element (PCE)
  communication and discovery protocols
  draft-leroux-pce-of-01.txt

- Diff-Serv Aware Class Type Object for Path Computation Element
  Communication Protocol draft-sivabalan-pce-dste-01.txt

Can you please indicate your opinion.


Now that the inter-AS requirements work is stable, the authors of two I-Ds 
related to the use of PCE for P2MP path computations (Adrian is one of the 
authors) have asked us to look at adopting this work. We think that a little

more discussion is needed first, and have asked them to present the I-Ds in 
Vancouver so that we can make a decision immediately afterwards. Please have

a look at the I-Ds and send your comments to the mailing list.

- PCC-PCE Communication Requirements for Point to Multipoint
  Multiprotocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE)
  draft-yasukawa-pce-p2mp-req-02.txt

- Applicability of the Path Computation Element (PCE) to
   Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP) Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)
   and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE)

Hi,

I want to let you know about an IPR disclosure that has been filed  
with the IETF in relation to http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-pce- 
path-key-00.txt. You can see the disclosure at https:// 
datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/871/ and see the terms offered by the IPR  
claimant.

Sorry for the delay in disclosing the IPR claim.

If you have any issues on this please contact the chairs. Adrian has  
agreed to act as arbitrator as he has not interest in the IPR claim,  
and will drop off the I-D author list if necessary.

Thanks,

JP.

ok, three comments though:=20

- units B-R is from def. speed(bps)-res.capacity(b) -> ? please check

architectural impact to be clarified before moving forward i think

TED or via other means

B is in bps and R is in bps.=20
B-R is the actual bandwidth consumption on the link, in bps.
We will clarify the units in next revision.

ISIS pce disc relies on procedures defined in 4971.=20
This is a deployment issue to use same or separate instances.

Would you please clarify and provide an example?

i thought that capacity/residual bandwidth was expressed in b

PCE_1 advertizing OF_1 attracts all demands in normal
conditions while PCE_2 advertizing OF_2 attracts demands
after failure/re-routing or other rare event

hence, you would then be balancing between both PCEs=20
after failure and when reverting and back again if the=20
failure occur once more (e.g. flapping)

i am not saying this will happen but heterogeneity in
OF advertized may lead to unbalanced request between
PCEs

Just to avoid confusion: the PCED is being carried within the ISIS
Router Capability TLV, the processing of which is defined in RFC4971.

Which might precisely be a deployment objective.

indeed, i am not referring to 4971 at such, i am referring to the
fact that if exchanging non-routing info w/ is-is result in recommending 
separated instance then the ISIS PCE disc. w-g doc becomes a prime 
candidate for such recommendation. just a matter of consistency.

hi j-p

as far as i remember, this doc. is still open for discussion from San 
Diego and Prague mtg discussion.

here below for the record

<http://www3.ietf.org/proceedings/06nov/minutes/pce.txt>

v03 has been reworked but does not provide answer to the concerns 
expressed so far - quoting the doc.

 > In PCE-based environments, it is critical to monitor the state of the

critical for what ? if computation time is an issue why delegate it 
(isn't that the safest assumption ?)

 > path computation chain for troubeshooting and performance monitoring
 > purposes:

troubleshooting of what ? if there is congestion/troubles how would you 
ensure the information received back is accurate ?

 > liveness of each element (PCE) involved in the PCE chain,

if i well remember the PCE is a client-server model (fundamental 
assumption about the PCE approach) hence, why the client needs to know 
the "chain" of PCE servers ?

 > detection of potential resource contention states

a t[0] contention, at t[1] message for perf.mon -> are running 
conditions identical ? since probabilisticaly, not what is the 
expectation behind this mechanism ?

would it be possible to have a "curve" of the deterioration of the 
performance as with an increasing number of computed path the number of 
"monitoring messages" will also increase ?

 > statistics in term of path computation times are examples of such
 > metrics of interest.

interest to who and for which purpose (detection is fine but what is the 
issue to be solved) ? like any system, PCE requires suitable planning 
and dimensioning wrt to perf.objectives i have impression that these 
fundamental design steps are skipped.

let's start discussion with this.

side note: the document states "In this document we call a "state 
metric" a metric that characterizes a PCE state" -> need to define the 
latter.

thanks,
-d.

The failure example you provide is solved by fixing flapping with a dampeni=
ng mechanism, this is not a PCE issue by the way...

Would you please provide a practical example where heterogeneity leads to o=
scillations?

indeed, i am not referring to 4971 at such, i am referring to the
fact that if exchanging non-routing info w/ is-is result in recommending=20
separated instance then the ISIS PCE disc. w-g doc becomes a prime=20
candidate for such recommendation. just a matter of consistency.

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Hi,
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; The meeting in Chicago was broadly in support of adopt=
ing
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; two I-Ds as
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; working group drafts:
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; - Encoding of Objective Functions in Path Computation
&gt;&gt;&gt; Element (PCE)
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;   communication and discovery protocols
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;   draft-leroux-pce-of-01.txt
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; ok, three comments though:
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; - units B-R is from def. speed(bps)-res.capacity(b) -&gt; =
?
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; please check
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt; B is in bps and R is in bps.
&gt;&gt;&gt; B-R is the actual bandwidth consumption on the link, in bps.
&gt;&gt;&gt; We will clarify the units in next revision.
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt; i thought that capacity/residual bandwidth was expressed in b
&gt;&gt; and you were using the term speed for bps - pls check
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; - still unclear to me whether isis pce disc. will or not u=
se a
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;   separate inst. (cf. gen-app discussion at isis working g=
roup)
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt; ISIS pce disc relies on procedures defined in 4971.
&gt;&gt;&gt; This is a deployment issue to use same or separate instances.
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt; do you assume that you would leave such choice possible ? i
&gt;&gt; was left with the impression after last isis mtg discussion
&gt;&gt; that there is a real incentive for making this a recommended
&gt;&gt; behavior
&gt;=20
&gt; Just to avoid confusion: the PCED is being carried within the ISIS
&gt; Router Capability TLV, the processing of which is defined in RFC4971.

indeed, i am not referring to 4971 at such, i am referring to the
fact that if exchanging non-routing info w/ is-is result in recommending=20
separated instance then the ISIS PCE disc. w-g doc becomes a prime=20
candidate for such recommendation. just a matter of consistency.

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; - question about oscillation effects resulting from oppose=
d obj.
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;   adv. from diff. pce's
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt; Would you please clarify and provide an example?
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt; PCE_1 advertizing OF_1 attracts all demands in normal
&gt;&gt; conditions while PCE_2 advertizing OF_2 attracts demands
&gt;&gt; after failure/re-routing or other rare event
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt; hence, you would then be balancing between both PCEs
&gt;&gt; after failure and when reverting and back again if the
&gt;&gt; failure occur once more (e.g. flapping)
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt; i am not saying this will happen but heterogeneity in
&gt;&gt; OF advertized may lead to unbalanced request between
&gt;&gt; PCEs
&gt;=20
&gt; Which might precisely be a deployment objective.

then how do you ensure that prevent the oscillation effect ?

My understanding of the discussion in the ISIS working group is that:
- They are tending towards believing that there should be a separation 
between
   flooding of IP link-state information and *all* other information
- They think that such a separation might reasonably be handled by using
   multiple (greater than one) instances of ISIS
- They have not yet reached a conclusion as to whether existing extensions
   fall into this category, but there was building opinion that TE 
advertisements
   might be strong candidates for off-loading to a second instance
- The Router Capability TLV would also be up for consideration

No slides for this topic from the ISIS working group in Chicago seem to have 
been posted yet.

The most recent version of the relevant I-D appears to be 
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ginsberg-isis-genapp-01.txt 
although I know Les was planning some updates as a result of the Chicago 
meeting.

It seems to me that:
1. The ISIS working group is not going to reach a conclusion on this
   in a hurry.
2. When they do reach a conclusion we MUST fall in with it.
3. In the mean time, just as TE and Router Caps are currently
   carried in a single instance, the PCE discovery will be so
   carried.
4. You should all contribute to this discussion on the ISIS mailing list.

Cheers,
Adrian

If the ISIS group leads to the conclusion of using multiple ISIS =20
instances
TE related info may be carried within a separate instance, which is =20
fine.
As far as the PCED is concerned, the mode of operation is for now
compliant to RFC4971. This may also apply to OSPF at some point
by the way (at least this has been briefly discussed). Anyway, this is
not a PCE related discussion. As far as this ID is concerned, this
won't impact its contents since it is carried within the ISIS Router =20
capability.

You're mixing two issues: the fact that the PCEs announce different
OF does not by itself lead to oscillation. What you describe above
is an example of different use case in normal and failure scenarios
which is perfectly fine if the PCE has been configured for doing so.

Looking like you are quibbling on words here ... Do want to replace  
"critical" by "useful",
is that your point ?

I think that I gave this explanation a few times already ... Suppose  
that the head-end
experiences long response times. I think that we can agree on the  
fact that this is
potentially an issue., in which case the user may want to  
troubleshoot by issuing
such a request in order to determine the location (which PCE of the  
chain) and the
root cause.

The information of the waiting times, CPU utilization, ... is  
provided by the PCE.
The issue of accurateness is no different than for any other  
information provided
for example by the MIB.

Strange question ... Try to operate a network and you'll immediately  
figure out.
Back to the previous case, consider the case of an inter-domain TE  
deployment
where the number of PCE chain may potentially be large. Isn't useful  
during a
troubleshooting event for example to know the set of PCEs involved in  
a PCE chain ?
(or to check a particular PCE chain).

Sure but ... this is true for all OAM tools. If you use a ping to  
locate a congestion spot
at the time you get your reply the network state may have changed 10  
times ... but if
you use it because of a sustained congestion state then the ping may  
help you to
locate the problem. The exact same reasoning applies here. Note that  
you can also
retrieve historical data computed over a period of time, this is a  
matter of local configuration
on the PCE, in which case you could retrieve the averaged (using for  
example a low pass
filter) computation time.

Again sorry ... but strange question ... Interest to the user of  
course. Before fixing a problem
it is usually useful to locate the root cause of the problem. This  
tool may help for that purpose.

this does not answer the real question i think (the real
point is why is it "critical" or "useful" to receive this
info from the PCE while a local timer on the PCC can very
simply determine the delay experienced between initiation
of the request and the reception of the response)

does not help. if there are real issues an answer may never
be received and the information received may be erroneous
anyway

note also that it would be rather surprising that PCE and
PCC can not make use of local timers to determine such
kind of delays (as i said the PCC against the PCE and
each PCE against the peering PCE)

if you seek at MIB information then i suspect that they
are also available at the SNMP management level ... why
a specific protocol mechanism to correlate it ?

i miss why LSR shall now start perform troubleshooting
of PCEs ... i thought that PCE where used to decrease
load on LSR not the contrary (PCE can be exceptionally
blocking / defectuous only otherwise resulting in more
troubles than being really improving performance)

i don't think you have captured the question. the point
is not whether the server shall be accountable but why
the PCC shall be made aware about the "chain"

the notion of the PCE chain is confusing from this point
of view

well i am not sure to follow the operational process you
are referring to, if PCCs needs to check/monitoring and
validate each computed segment per PCE then it is also
better to maintain autonomous segment computation and
prevent the overhead of additional cross-verification

this triggers to me the following point, before devising
methods for troubleshooting and monitoring computational
results it may be appropriate to have a much better view
of the usage of PCE before progressing on "tools"

the same is ongoing at CCAMP where in-depth work has
been started in understanding the needs based on the
operational practice

nope. it has never been expected that the PCE gets dimensioned
to the total number of computed LSP over time (except for the
stateful PCEs) meaning that a stateless PCE was only expected
to support a certain number of request per unit of time (and
this independently of the accumulated number of computed paths)

echo request/reply is not equivalent to resource consumption
measurement / monitoring on certain nodes and number of cycles
required for path computation not sure to really capture the
analogy

knowing the computational interval that could result from the
use of different PC algorithms and the various conditions (both
in terms of input and local resources) i am sure that off-line
statistics would be more suitable than real-time collection per
PCC

it is not a strange question it is the initial question: which
problem are you trying to solve then one could try to assess
which method is appropriate

hence your problem is the computational limitation of a PCE
what a PCC could do about ? do you need to sending back a
time value is of any use (delta between send/receive allows
the PCC to obtain the same kind of information assuming that
the PCE remains "reachable" i.e. no communication channel issue)

indeed, this question is still open since end of 2004.

Not sure what you mean (since it was not presented at all

The aim of the newly defined messages is NOT to determine
the end to end delay of course *but* each delay along the PCE
chain to identify a potential issue, gets statistics, ... If your PCE
chain is made of 2 PCEs, it will provide you what delays have
been experienced along that chain on each PCE (queueing,
processing, ...).

The local timer gives you the overall end to end time (already
available on several PCC/PCE implementations) but does not
tell you which delays have been experiences on each element
along the PCE chain. You could have a Telnet session on each
PCE in your network and upon issuing a request try to log all
events and figure this out (try this ...) or have a PCE message that
does it for you from the head-end (this is what this ID is about).

First I did say that you had similar information provided by SNMP.
I was using the example of SNMP answering your point about
the accurateness issue. Here we do collect statistics about queueuing
delays, processing delays and so on ... so does SNMP, this is no
different.

Back to your question "Why a specific protocol mechanism to correlate
it ?". Because you may want to have on-line mechanisms that do
require a NMS system, that's it. Note that this is no different than  
Ping,
LSPPing, ...

Dimitri, yes the aim of the PCE is too help solving various issues.
Note that in case of inter-area, this is usually not a load issue but
a visibility issue, I guess that you noticed that. But when you operate
a network you also need tools to make sure that things work as
expected and there might be circumstances under which they don't
thus the reason for such tools.

What a strange discussion ... it looks like you're questioning the
usefulness of OAM tools in general ... ? Again look at LSPPing: LSR
are of course expected to work, but still OAM tools are useful.

Because when you use a set of PCEs and you experience an issue
along the PCE chain, you want to know where.

So ?

I read the comments below and I think that they all fall
into the same category. It looks like you do not think that
on-line tools to gather data about the PCE chain is
useful. Apparently several SPs do think that this is a useful
thing to have. If you have any comment to improve the ID
there are always very much welcome.

Thanks.

JP.

Hi Dimitri,

I forgot to mention a key point ...

This ID meets a specific requirement of RFC4927.

5.  Manageability Considerations

    The inter-area application implies some new manageability
    requirements in addition to those already listed in [RFC4657].  The
    PCECP PCC and PCE MIB modules MUST allow recording the proportion of
    inter-area requests and the success rate of inter-area requests.   
The
    PCECP PCC MIB module MUST also allow recording the performances of a
    PCE chain (minimum, maximum, and average response times), in case of
    multiple-PCE inter-area path computation.

    It is really important, for diagnostic and troubleshooting reasons,
    to monitor the availability and performances of each PCE of a PCE
    chain used for inter-area path computation.  Particularly, it is
    really important to identify the PCE(s) responsible for a delayed
    reply.

    Hence, a mechanism MUST be defined to monitor the performances of a
    PCE chain.  It MUST allow determining the availability of each  
PCE of
    the chain as well as its minimum, maximum, and average response
    times.

Thanks.

JP.

Purpose: In response 
Body: Thank you for continuing to share your OTNT work plan through your liaison 
from your June plenary in Geneva. I have made the IETF's CCAMP and PCE 
working groups aware of the work plan, and at this time we do not have any 
issues or concerns to raise resulting from the content of the plan.

Please note that the publication of new RFCs related to the optical control 
plane are notified to SG15 through separate liaisons from time to time, and 
you may wish to update table 7-1-2 accordingly. 

Please keep us informed as your work plan evolves.

Best regards,
Adrian Farrel
IETF Liaison to the ITU-T SG15 on Optical Control Plane

Hi,

I'm looking at r08 sections 6.3 and 7.2.

Section 6.3 has

   Note that sending Keepalive messages to maintain the session alive is
   optional and PCEP peers may decide to not send Keepalive messages
   once the PCEP session is established.

Section 7.2 has

   Keepalive (8 bits): maximum period of time (in seconds) between the
   sending of PCEP messages.  The minimum value for the Keepalive is 1
   second.  When set to 0, once the session is established, no further
   Keepalive messages need to be sent to the remote peer.

And also

   A sends an Open message to B with Keepalive=10 seconds and
   Deadtimer=30 seconds.  This means that A sends Keepalive messages (or
   ay other PCEP message) to B every 30 seconds and B can declare the
   PCEP session with A down if no PCEP has been received from A.

I find this peculiar. Sending a keepalive message does not verify for the
sender that the session is open. It verifies for the receiver. So, surely
the parameter in the Open object says how frequently the sender of the Open
message wants to receive a Keepalive message. That is, how often the
receiver of the Open message must send a Keepalive message.

For example, if a PCC is worried that the session may fail, it will want to
operate the keepalive process. But as currently specified, the PCC can only
tell the PCE how often the PCC will send Keepalive messages, and after what
period the PCE may declare the session dead. This is no help to the PCC! If
the PCE decides that it will not send Keepalive messages then the PCC cannot
determine the health of the session and cannot switch to a new PCE.

In other words, the keepalive process is back-to-front.

Further, I don't see why you need the keepalive timer value and the dead
timer value. One value can be derived from the other, probably through a
recommended ratio of 3.5.

Lastly, when describing that the use of keepalive is optional, there are a
couple of points:

1. Optional should be an RFC 2119 word
2. You need to make it clear that it is not the "PCEP peers"
    that decide to not send keepalives, but "each PCEP peer"
    that decides "whether it wants to receive keepalives"
3. You should indicate the circumstances surrounding
    the choice for this option. I think that, you might suggest
    that if PCE discovery is in use, the failure of a PCE can
    be speedily detected by the failure of the IGP, and can
    be flooded by timing out the LSA containing the discovery
    information. In this case, keepalive would not be needed.

Yes?

Adrian

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Path Computation Element Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Inclusion of Manageability Sections in PCE Working Group Drafts
	Author(s)	: A. Farrel
	Filename	: draft-ietf-pce-manageability-requirements-02.txt
	Pages		: 12
	Date		: 2007-8-31
	
It has often been the case that manageability considerations have
   been retrofitted to protocols after they have been speicified,
   standardized, implemented, or deployed. This is sub-optimal.

   Similarly, new protocols or protocol extensions are frequently
   designed without due consideration of manageability requirements.

   This document specifies the recommendation for all new
   Internet-Drafts in the PCE Working Group to include a
   "Manageability Considerations" section, and gives guidance on what
   that section should contain.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the 
username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After 
logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then 
"get draft-ietf-pce-manageability-requirements-02.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-pce-manageability-requirements-02.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
