Hi

Some comments on the draft: 
Typos:
Section 3: thatn -> than
Appendix C: shoudl -> should (2 occurences)

Other:
Section 4.1: "increasingly short supply", could be a lack of
understanding of the english language from my side. Even though I
(believe I) understand the phrase I suspect that it may be confusing.
Anyway please dismiss this protest if you like. 

Appendix C: Bullets 3 and 4: I am not quite sure that I get the
difference between 3 and 4 when I read the text alone: I guess that in
3) the decision (admission control and termination) is done (in
PCN-ingress/egress-nodes) based on the ratio between NM and PM while in
4) a dedicated PCN codepoint (AM or TM) is set in the PCN-interior-nodes
based on load, quueue length et.c. Is this interpretation correct ?

Regards
Ingemar

Hi Ingemar,

Thanks for the comments. I will incorporate them in the next version
which will hopefully be published shortly.

Regarding Appendix C bullets 3 & 4. These are trying to do two things -
specify the action needed if you want to mark a packet (set it to PM)
and clarify what happens if an unexpected codepoint is seen (treat it as
NM). This second bit is perhaps not needed as it is reasonable to expect
operators to ensure they don't misconfigured networks...

Toby

Hi Phil,

I still have concerns regarding the nomenclature in the current version 
of the architecture draft.

Take Figure 1 on page 10. The terms PCN-threshold-rate and 
PCN-excess-rate are meaningful only in the CL deployment scenario where 
the reference rate for the threshold marker is the PCN-threshold-rate 
and the reference rate for the excess marker is the PCN-excess-rate. 
This is different for the SM deployment scenario where the reference 
rate of the excess marker must be set to the PCN-threshold-rate. How 
funny is that? No, it's not funny - this is confusing and makes further 
explanations cumbersome and prone to misunderstandings. I think that 
this is a bug that should be corrected before publication as these terms 
help to describe the core idea of PCN. Using the term admissible rate 
instead of PCN-threshold-rate and supportable rate instead of 
PCN-excess-rate decouples PCN rate thresholds from marking mechanisms. 
They express the meanings of these thresholds within the PCN concept 
which are denoted on the right side in Figure 1 and allow a much clearer 
presentation of the concept.

I hope my reasoning is clear. This document is not a working document 
for a closed group where nomenclature has no importance as long as 
everybody knows that we mean pears if we say apples - it's a reference 
for others to learn about PCN and, therefore, technical terms should be 
precise and easy to remember.

Regards,

    Michael

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Congestion and Pre-Congestion Notification Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Marking behaviour of PCN-nodes
	Author(s)       : P. Eardley
	Filename        : draft-ietf-pcn-marking-behaviour-00.txt
	Pages           : 22
	Date            : 2008-10-02

This document standardises the two marking behaviours of PCN-nodes:
threshold marking and excess traffic marking.  Threshold marking
marks all PCN-packets if the PCN traffic rate is greater than a first
configured rate.  Excess traffic marking marks a proportion of PCN-
packets, such that the amount marked equals the traffic rate in
excess of a second configured rate.Requirements Language

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-pcn-marking-behaviour-00.txt

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP at:

{ Hi Phil,
{ 
{ I still have concerns regarding the nomenclature in the current
version
{ of the architecture draft.
{ 
{ Take Figure 1 on page 10. The terms PCN-threshold-rate and
{ PCN-excess-rate are meaningful only in the CL deployment scenario
where
{ the reference rate for the threshold marker is the PCN-threshold-rate
{ and the reference rate for the excess marker is the PCN-excess-rate.
{ This is different for the SM deployment scenario where the reference
{ rate of the excess marker must be set to the PCN-threshold-rate. 

This is not correct. The rate of the excess marker is set to the
PCN-excess-rate. Fig 2 shows, for the Single Marking deployment
scenario, how this relates to admission /termination

Best wishes
Phil



How
{ funny is that? No, it's not funny - this is confusing and makes
further
{ explanations cumbersome and prone to misunderstandings. I think that
{ this is a bug that should be corrected before publication as these
terms
{ help to describe the core idea of PCN. Using the term admissible rate
{ instead of PCN-threshold-rate and supportable rate instead of
{ PCN-excess-rate decouples PCN rate thresholds from marking mechanisms.
{ They express the meanings of these thresholds within the PCN concept
{ which are denoted on the right side in Figure 1 and allow a much
clearer
{ presentation of the concept.
{ 
{ I hope my reasoning is clear. This document is not a working document
{ for a closed group where nomenclature has no importance as long as
{ everybody knows that we mean pears if we say apples - it's a reference
{ for others to learn about PCN and, therefore, technical terms should
be
{ precise and easy to remember.

At the moment there are references to both [Menth] and [Menth08].
So the [Menth] ones can all be replaced by [Menth08]?
- just checking!
Thanks

Hi Phil,

sorry, I was confused. You are right. I overlooked that this intrinsic 
contradiction is resolved by redefining the term "PCN-threshold-rate" in 
Figure 1 into "PCN-excess-rate" in Figure 2. Thus, the semantic of the 
term "PCN-threshold-rate" depends on the deployment scenario, right? 
Again, this is very confusing an I recommend to introduce the two terms 
"admissible rate" and "supportable rate" in addition. They are 
independent of the deployment scenario and allow the explanation of PCN 
without having a particular deployment scenario in mind.

Regards,

    Michael

Hi Phil,

good that you ask. Your citation [Menth08] relates to our joint overview 
paper with the collection of AC and FT mechanisms and [Menth] relates to 
the paper about threshold configuration. To avoid confusion, it might be 
better to use [PCN-Overview] instead of [Menth08] and [PCN-Config] 
instead of [Menth].

[Menth08] or [PCN-Overview] M. Menth et al.: "PCN-Based Admission 
Control and Flow Termination", 2008, 
http://www3.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/staff/menth/Publications/papers/Menth08-PCN-Overview.pdf

[Menth] or [PCN-Config] M. Menth and M. Hartmann: "Threshold 
Configuration and Routing Optimization for PCN-Based Resilient Admission 
Control", 2008,

Phil,

While we are on the subject of references in the architecture document
you need to update them to reflect the two new WG IDs (marking and
baseline encoding). Also do you mean to have the circular reference to
your own architecture doc under its old draft-eardley name?

Hi Phil,

good that you ask. Your citation [Menth08] relates to our joint overview

paper with the collection of AC and FT mechanisms and [Menth] relates to

the paper about threshold configuration. To avoid confusion, it might be

better to use [PCN-Overview] instead of [Menth08] and [PCN-Config] 
instead of [Menth].

[Menth08] or [PCN-Overview] M. Menth et al.: "PCN-Based Admission 
Control and Flow Termination", 2008, 
http://www3.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/staff/menth/Publications/papers/

{ Hi Phil,
{ 
{ sorry, I was confused. You are right. I overlooked that this intrinsic
{ contradiction is resolved by redefining the term "PCN-threshold-rate"
in
{ Figure 1 into "PCN-excess-rate" in Figure 2. Thus, the semantic of the
{ term "PCN-threshold-rate" depends on the deployment scenario, right?

it isnt redefined; it isnt an intrinsic contradiction. It's consistent.
different deployment scenarios uses PCN marking differently - this
concept is independent of the terminology. 

{ Again, this is very confusing an I recommend to introduce the two
terms
{ "admissible rate" and "supportable rate" in addition. They are
{ independent of the deployment scenario and allow the explanation of
PCN
{ without having a particular deployment scenario in mind.

Having extra terminology is a possibility. I took the view that each
term that is defined is an extra thing for the reader to understand. It
also requires some mapping between the admissible /supportable rates and
excess/threshold rates. Personally I think this likely to be more
confusing. But if there is a clamour in support of this being added, I
could add it. (Michael, I take your vote in favour as read!)

True - thanks!

Also do you mean to have the circular reference to your own

yes. Once it mentions the EWMA averaging idea that is only in
draft-eardley & once it's in the Acks where pointing to the people who
were authors of that doc.

Thanks for the update. 
I think I prefer to keep ref as [author name], for consistency with the
others. 
I just checked & I think I have each of the refs to the appropriate one
of your docs. But if you think any of the current refs to [menth] in
fact should be to [menth08] or vice-versa, please shout!

I think we should leave terminology as it is. Otherwise we will just get
locked into a circular debate and end up with a more confusing document
as Phil points out below. Yes, there are good arguments for using
Michael's terminology in terms of accuracy but they make the job of
describing the ACTUAL system more difficult and thus risk people getting
things wrong.

Given we seem to be focussing in on a small subset of the possible
solutions I think "restrictive" terminology (eg that with extra
semantics within the terms) is no bad thing...

{ Hi Phil,
{ 
{ sorry, I was confused. You are right. I overlooked that this intrinsic
{ contradiction is resolved by redefining the term "PCN-threshold-rate"
in
{ Figure 1 into "PCN-excess-rate" in Figure 2. Thus, the semantic of the
{ term "PCN-threshold-rate" depends on the deployment scenario, right?

it isnt redefined; it isnt an intrinsic contradiction. It's consistent.
different deployment scenarios uses PCN marking differently - this
concept is independent of the terminology. 

{ Again, this is very confusing an I recommend to introduce the two
terms
{ "admissible rate" and "supportable rate" in addition. They are
{ independent of the deployment scenario and allow the explanation of
PCN

Having extra terminology is a possibility. I took the view that each
term that is defined is an extra thing for the reader to understand. It
also requires some mapping between the admissible /supportable rates and
excess/threshold rates. Personally I think this likely to be more
confusing. But if there is a clamour in support of this being added, I
could add it. (Michael, I take your vote in favour as read!)

Hi,
This is the update to the marking behaviour draft, which (I think)
includes all the discussion we had on the list and in Dublin about the
previous version (draft-eardley-pan-marking-behaviour-01)

Summary of changes:

   o  Removed material concerning per domain behaviour and PCN-boundary-
      node operation (temporarily archived to Appendix C)
it was agreed that this draft should be just about the 'per-hop'
behaviour. 

We need a draft about the per-domain behaviour. This will be very short,
eg saying that all nodes in the PCN-domain have to be configured to do
the same type of marking, the same choice about encoding states, do
policing at the ingress-node etc. ietf-pcn-baseline-encoding Appendix B
also indicates some things that the PCN-boundary-nodes need to do.
I (& Toby) don't have time to write this per-domain behaviour draft
(hoping for volunteer(s)!)

There's also the Info edge behaviour draft or drafts. Some of the
material in Appendix C might be useful for that.


   o  Removed mention of downgrading as an option for per-hop traffic
      conditioning.  In fact, downgrading is no longer allowed because S
      2.6 now says "A PCN-node MUST NOT ...change a PCN-packet into a
      non PCN-packet".

   o  Traffic conditioning is now a MAY.  Since in general flow
      termination (not traffic conditioning) is PCN's method for
      handling problems of too much traffic.
I think I got the conclusion on this right, but would appreciate people
checking. I think a MAY captures best our conclusion (rather than a
SHOULD or not talking about it all)

   o  Metered-packets: competing-non-PCN-packets now MAY be metered.
      Since it is recommended that the operator doesn't allow any
      competing-non-PCN-traffic, and (if there is) there are potentially
      other ways of coping.
This was the discussion with Christian recently about Section 6.5 of the
architecture draft. 
In the previous draft, it was a MUST to meter these
competing-non-PCN-packets. This seems onerous when we also recommend
that there is no such traffic. 

   o  No changes (outside traffic conditioning & metering of competing-
      non-PCN-traffic) to the Normative sections of the draft.

   o  Appendix B.1 added about competing-non-PCN-traffic.  Recommended
      that there is no such traffic, but guidance given if there is.


Sorry this has taken me longer than expected to get out.

I'll do another rev before Minneapolis. I believe (or at least hope!)
that it'll then be ready for last call/

Best wishes
phil

Daisuke,

I think it's very reasonable to add "(others might be possible)" to
S6.3, the same as in S6.1 & 6.2.

You're right that an operator might decide to do something we haven't
thought about. 

Thanks
Phil/

That is not true at all. Having concise nomenclature makes documents 
shorter. You can explain the core idea of PCN-based AC and FT for all 
PCN independently of any deployment scenario:
PCN traffic < admissible rate -> admit new flows
admissible rate < PCN traffic < supportable rate -> block new flows
supportable rate < PCN traffic -> block new flows and terminate some 
admitted flows
No case analysis is required that depends on the deployment scenario and 
the risk that people get something wrong is greatly reduced.

Currently, the reference rate for the excess marker is given the name 
"PCN-excess-rate" and the reference rate for the threshold marker is 
given the name "PCN-threshold-rate". From my perspective, these terms 
are not necessary, but they do not harm. They help to describe the three 
particular deployment scenarios in a very simple way, but only if the 
general threshold names are available:
CL,3sm: PCN-threshold-rate= admissible rate, PCN-excess-rate= 
supportable rate
SM: PCN-excess-rate= admissible rate

The small subset of possible solutions contains CL and SM and there you 
have the problem already.

Hi Phil and Michael,

Thank Phil for accepting my recent comment.

I agree with Michael about PCN-excess-rate and PCN-threshold-rate
because some new algorithms may use PCN-excess-rate that is less than
PCN-threshold-rate and others may use double PCN-excess-rates or double
PCN-threshold-rates. In my opinion, all the possiblity should not be
excluded. Moreover, they are confusing as Michael pointed out.

Best regards,
Daisuke

Having extra terminology is a possibility. I took the view that each
term that is defined is an extra thing for the reader to understand. It
also requires some mapping between the admissible /supportable rates and
excess/threshold rates. Personally I think this likely to be more
confusing. But if there is a clamour in support of this being added, I
could add it. (Michael, I take your vote in favour as read!)

Hi Steve,
Should " (pre-congestion)" in "All PCN mechanisms, including transport  
and encoding
of (pre-congestion) information, are required to cleanly integrate
with existing architectures and protocols such as DiffServ and ECN. "  
be "(pre-) congestion"?

Hi,
By what kind of policy the flow termination is performed? Which flow  
belonging which user will be terminated? Is it implementation dependent?

Steve,

I support pcn-architecture-06 as is.

My personal take on the terminology is that it is not wrong as is. Apart from that, having a stable terminology increases readbility of documents significantly. If it comes to the "rate and threshold terminology", PCN architecture changed terminology almost with every second draft in the past (I don't blame Phil for this). I'm not really interested in having to read contemporary architecture versions to understand any line in contemporary drafts and presentations of the PCN WG. It is further not nice to draft a document or a presentation and then change wording all the time as a new architecture version is published. I also was unhappy about Joe Babiarz presentation in Dublin, not because of the contents, but because of the terminology not folllowing the architecture draft. The presentation was hard to understand on the spot then and I need to spend extra time to learn individual author to WG terminology translations. As every author can claim the right to have his preferred terminology and my time is limited, I'll spend less time on reading drafts which are demanding already because of the applied individual terminology. Others having little time may do so too. I don't see the WG benefitting from this endless terminology debate and would like to come to an end now.

Regards,

Rudiger

Hi Tina 
I think this is down to the operator of the PCN-domain to decide (so I
guess it is "implementation dependent"). Anyway, it doesn't seem
appropriate to standardise such policy decisions.
Thanks

Some comments

1. I think there should be a section about how the baseline encoding
restricts the EXPTAL encoding extensions. I think these restrictions are
the following MUSTs:
- 1 dscp or two defined as a pair
- 00 is not-PCN
- 11 is (some kind of) PCN-marking
- 11 mustn't be changed by interior node.
Basically the restrictions explain what we mean by "extension to
baseline" rather than a whole new encoding. They hopefully mean that
migration requirements are eased, ie if a pcn-domain is using the
baseline and upgrades to extension, it isn't too disastrous if some
nodes are still using baseline. I think this is a reasonable
requirement. 

2. it might be nice to have a picture of encoding transitions in (or
near) Appendix B.1. just to make it graphic. Some people I think have
asked for a transitions pic, and it makes more sense to me to include
this in the encoding draft than in the marking draft. Drawing a
transitions pic for the baseline encoding should be easy; maybe could
include one for extensions as well, although this is slightly trickier. 
I think the pics could be informative, and the text normative if
necessary 

3. other suggestions:-

Intro:
Changes section should refer to WG -00

Terminology
PCN-capable or PCN-enabled?

4.1
Refer to the codepoint as 11 (it's only CE in 3168)
Add some rationale for NM =10 rather than 01 (or say, "it makes no odds,
but a choice has to be made")

8.
Conclusions mention about end-to-end ECN support. This should appear
earlier eg S5

Appendixes:
At start of each say whether normative or informative

App B:
Rephrase as active tense (A PCN-interior-node MUST...)
The PCN-egress one - re-phrase as a "MUST unless.." (rather than a
"SHOULD.. only exception)

B.1: 
Downgrading is no longer mentioned in marking behaviour draft

A few other typos /suggestions I'll give to you on paper

Thanks

By my reading of the last call comments, the only remaining issue where
we have some disagreement is surrounding the terminology proposed by
Michael Menth.

Does everyone agree that this is the last remaining issue?

If so, could we close on that this week?  Please send your commments to
the list ASAP.

We want to advance this document quickly also.  My hope is that we can
last call both this and draft-ietf-pcn-marking-behavior right after the
Minneapolis meeting.

Please send comments to the list ASAP.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Congestion and Pre-Congestion Notification Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Baseline Encoding and Transport of Pre-Congestion Information
	Author(s)       : T. Moncaster, et al.

Pre-congestion notification (PCN) provides information to support
admission control and flow termination in order to protect the
Quality of Service of inelastic flows.  It does this by marking
packets when traffic load on a link is approaching or has exceeded a
threshold below the physical link rate.  This document specifies how
such marks are to be encoded into the IP header.  The baseline
encoding described here provides for only two PCN encoding states.
It is designed to be easily extended to provide more encoding states
but such schemes will be described in other documents.

As promised I have uploaded a new version. I am aware there are a handful of typos and spelling mistakes that I noticed just after uploading. I will correct these in the next version. I am now pretty happy with almost all the text.

The key section for the WG to note is Appendix B where I have put in a couple of questions that I would welcome input on. 

The first of these is where to put the text (now set out as a table) about valid and invalid transitions at PCN nodes? Should this be part of the baseline encoding or should it be split between a new edge node behaviour document and Phil's marking behaviour.

The second question relates to how to best handle the unexpected presence of the EXP codepoint. There is a potential for this to happen during any partial deployment of an experimental encoding extension scheme. Whilst it would be best for an operator to ensure all nodes run the same encoding there is a chance this might not happen. The best solution as I see it is for the baseline scheme to treat EXP the same as NM but to raise a management alarm...

I have also highlighted another point in Appendix A which needs a decision: should we as a WG recommend that RFC3168 full functionality tunnels SHOULD NOT be used in a PCN-domain or would it be better to put our collective voices behind Bob's attempts to correct the anomalous behaviour of tunnels which he is currently trying to push through TSVWG (draft-briscoe-tsvwg-ecn-tunnel-01)

Title:		 Baseline Encoding and Transport of Pre-Congestion Information
Creation_date:	 2008-10-14

Abstract:
Pre-congestion notification (PCN) provides information to support
admission control and flow termination in order to protect the
Quality of Service of inelastic flows.  It does this by marking
packets when traffic load on a link is approaching or has exceeded a
threshold below the physical link rate.  This document specifies how
such marks are to be encoded into the IP header.  The baseline
encoding described here provides for only two PCN encoding states.
It is designed to be easily extended to provide more encoding states
but such schemes will be described in other documents.

Hi Phil and all,

I've got some comments on the marking document.

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


The abstract talks about a first and a second rate. Better: Threshold 
marking marks all PCN-packets  if the PCN traffic rate is greater than  
its configured  reference rate (PCN-threshold-rate). Excess marking 
marks a proportion of PCN-packets, such that the amount of unmarked 
packets equals the rate of its configured reference rate (PCN-excess-rate).

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


Intro:

"than some configured rate ..." -> than its reference rate 
(PCN-threshold-rate).
The same one line below ... (PCN-excess-rate).

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


[RFC3168] ... ; this document defines such an alternative.
Disagree: PCN marking is not intended to be delivered to end systems and 
is, therefore, it is not an alternative RED-like default congestion 
marking. The only commonality between RED-like marking and 
threshold/excess marking is that they re-mark the same codepoints.

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


The explanation of meter talks about measurements which is misleading at 
this point of the document. Of course, later in the document is stated 
that this does not tell anything about the implementation. Just try 
another formulation avoiding the work measurement. Better:

   o  Threshold meter: determine whether the rate of all PCN-packets on a link is
      greater than its configured PCN-threshold-rate. 

   o  Excess traffic meter: measure by how much the rate of PCN-packets on a link
      is greater than its configured PCN-excess-rate.


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

   o  Competing-non-PCN-packet: a non PCN-packet that competes for the
      same capacity as PCN-traffic.  "Capacity" means the forwarding
      bandwidth on a link; "competes" means that competing-non-PCN-
      packets will delay PCN-packets in the queue for the link.
      Competing-non-PCN-packets MUST NOT be PCN-marked (ie only PCN-
      packets can be PCN-marked).  Note: In general it is not advised to
      have any competing-non-PCN-traffic.

This is hard to understand. In addition, this is not precise as with any 
non-preemptive scheduling any non-PCN-traffic can delay non-PCN-traffic. 
Better:

      Competing-non-PCN-packet: a non-PCN-packet sharing a link with PCN-packets
      and competing with them for its forwarding bandwidth. "Competing" means 
      that it can be elected for transmission in spite of waiting PCN-packets.
      ...

Section 2.1 similar case.

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

Section 2.2

   o  metering all metered-packets to determine if the level of metered-
      traffic is sufficiently high to overload the PCN behaviour
      aggregate.  (According to [RFC2475] metering is "the process of
      measuring the temporal properties (eg rate) of a traffic stream".)

What does "to overload the PCN behaviour aggregate" mean?

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

   If the PCN-node drops PCN-packets then:

   o  PCN-packets that arrive at the PCN-node already excess-traffic-
      marked SHOULD be preferentially dropped;

This default behavior significantly delays direct measured rate 
termination (DMRT) as well as marked flow termination (see Section 
IV.B of [1] and Section V.D.4 of [2]). Thus, if these termination 
methods should be further considered as  options, there must be a choice 
that unmarked PCN packets are dropped preferentially. 
The presented drop preference is only beneficial for
indirect measured rate termination (IMRT). However, the implementation
of IMRT is quite complex as it needs to correlate distributed measurements
and biased measurement intervals can lead to overtermination 
(see Section IV.B of [1]). Therefore, I find it risky to close the door 
for other termination methods by recommending only preferential dropping
of marked packets.

[1] http://www3.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/staff/menth/Publications/papers/Menth08-Sub-9.pdf
[2] http://www3.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/staff/menth/Publications/papers/Menth08-PCN-MFT.pdf

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

Section 2.4

   In addition to the above, if the token bucket is within an MTU of
   being empty, then the meter SHOULD indicate to the Marking function
   that the packet is to be excess-traffic-marked; MTU means the maximum
   size of PCN-packets on the link.  Otherwise the meter MUST NOT
   indicate marking.

Some statement should say that this choice has been made to achieve 
packet-size-independent marking.


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

Section 2.5

This section describes the required joint behavior of excess and threshold 
markers in specific deployment scenarios. Doing that in the main body of 
the documents sounds like excluding other use, e.g. for packet-specific dual 
marking which allows the implementation of a CL-like admission control and
flow termination with only a single DSCP. I suggest decoupling the description
of the meter and marker functions from their joint behavior which depends on
the specific encoding.

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

General

"Threshold marking" is not a good name for the algorithm. The name was a working
name in some email conversations of Anna and me. It was inspired by the fact that
the token bucket based mechanism used a threshold to trigger the marking, the
name was tight to the specific token bucket implementation, not well deliberated 
and not intended for eternal use. There are several reasons why a different name 
should be chosen:
1) This document explicitly states that no special implementation should be mandated.
2) Also implementations of excess traffic marking use thresholds, e.g. for implementing the MTU check.
3) The name threshold marking does not say what the algorithm does. Therefore, I propose exhaustive marking.

I do not see why an obviously bad nomenclature should be used if better 
nomenclature exists. It prevents people from memorizing what the marking behavior does
which is important for quickly understanding the technology. Ok, this last note is
a matter of style. It is important but not as important as the introduction of an 
admissible and  supportable rate in the architecture draft to allow for a description of
the PCN concept independently of any specific deployment scenario.

Hi Phil


I have read version 07 of the PCN architecture draft.
Thanks for trying to incorporate my last comments.
However, I think that some more clarifications are needed:

Comment_1:
Section 6, page 15:
Please remove the words "at most" that refers to the extension of
encodings:

Please change from:
"Extension encodings may be
      defined that, at most, use a second DSCP .."

INTO:

"Extension encodings may be
      defined that use a second DSCP .."

-----------------------------


Comment_2:
Section 7.4, page 23:
Please add the following combination of words to the following sentence:
 - (others might be possible)
Please change from:
"As well as the functions covered above, other specific admission
   control functions need to be performed:"

INTO:
"As well as the functions covered above, other specific admission
   control functions need to be performed (others might be possible):"

------------------------------------


Comment_3:
Section 7.4, page 23:

Please change from:
 "There are various possibilities for how the functionality could be
   distributed (we assume the operator would configure which is used):"

INTO:
 "There are various possibilities (others might be possible) for how the
functionality could be
   distributed (we assume the operator would configure which is used):"

-------------------------


Comment_4:
Section 7.5, page 24:
Please change from:

"As well as the functions covered above, other specific termination
   control functions need to be performed:"

INTO:
"As well as the functions covered above, other specific termination
   control functions need to be performed (others might be possible):"

Best regards,
Georgios

Thanks Georgios,

Comment 1:
I wrote in the document that extension encodings would either use the
baseline DSCP or "at most" a second dscp. You have in mind that an
extension encoding might use further DSCPs. I think 1 or 2 dscps
reflects all opinions that I've heard & all extension encodings proposed
so far.
Further, Steve's WG consensus call in March had
Q2: Should the PCN wg produce an experimental-track extension to the
    standards-track PCN scheme that requires another encoding state (for
    a total of three encoding states)?
Such an extension, I think, needs "at most a second DSCP".

So I'm inclined not to change the text.

I'm interested whether you have a specific idea for an extension
encoding that requires three DSCPs? (would like to see the proposal,
even if just a sketch)


Comments 2 (3 & 4 are very similar):
What's the reason behind this suggestion? The text describes the
admission control functions that have been talked about within the WG
(except for probing, which is covered later). Do you have specific
functions beyond ones that are already mentioned? Similarly for comment
3, do you have a particular example of another way that the admission
ctrl functionality could /should be distributed? 

I think if your motivation is that we should have as few restrictions as
possible - I'm inclined to disagree. The doc already talks about quite a
few different approaches for admission and termination. One of Lars's
criticisms of an earlier version of the architecture draft was that it
was too vague and hadn't narrowed down enough from the infinite spectrum
of possibilities. So I need more persuasion about comments 2-4.

Thanks
Phil/

Georgios: This is associated with the possibility of using the 
Affected marking encoding.
The answer on how many DSCPs will be used, will be asnwerwed by other
documents and not the PCN architecture draft.

Georgios: The comments 2,3, and 4 are related to the discussion 
regarding the HOSE model vs. ingress-egress-aggregate model.

The description in 7.4 and 7.5 talks only about the 
ingress-egress-aggregate model.

You may work out commnets 2,3 and 4 and rephrase the text as you want 
such that other models than ingress-egress-aggregate model are not excluded.

Best regards,
Georgios

Why would affected marking need a 3rd dscp? 2 dscps would seem to leave
plenty of room.

Ok. I don't see why comment 3 (distribution of admission ctrl
functionality) applies.

Toby,

Michael has brought up what I think is a good suggestion in the context
of the marking behaviour draft
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pcn-marking-behaviour-00 

{ ===================================================
{ 
{ Section 2.5
{ 
{ This section describes the required joint behavior of excess and
threshold
{ markers in specific deployment scenarios. Doing that in the main body
of
{ the documents sounds like excluding other use, e.g. for
packet-specific
{ dual
{ marking which allows the implementation of a CL-like admission control
and
{ flow termination with only a single DSCP. I suggest decoupling the
{ description
{ of the meter and marker functions from their joint behavior which
depends
{ on
{ the specific encoding.

I sympathise with michael's point. I'm inclined to think that most of
the current text in S2.5 of ietf-pcn-marking-behaviour-00 would fit
better in the baseline encoding draft. I think it would fit naturally
into your text about encoding transitions (current Appendix B). at the
moment the table just gives what the valid transitions are - this would
be expanded by saying in more detail which specific transitions are
valid depending on what the meters say.

In answer to your question about App B "The PCN working group needs to
decide whether to
   include this in this baseline encoding or whether to transfer it to
   an alternative document."
I think michael's point & PSDM example means that it needs to be
specified in each encoding document. You could say this in S5 (Rules for
Experimental Encoding Schemes) ie require extensions to specify
similarly what the encoding transitions are depending on the state of
the 2 meters.

{ there is a chance this might not happen. The best solution as I see it
is

{ Abstract:
{ Pre-congestion notification (PCN) provides information to support
{ admission control and flow termination in order to protect the
{ Quality of Service of inelastic flows.  It does this by marking
{ packets when traffic load on a link is approaching or has exceeded a
{ threshold below the physical link rate.  This document specifies how
{ such marks are to be encoded into the IP header.  The baseline
{ encoding described here provides for only two PCN encoding states.
{ It is designed to be easily extended to provide more encoding states
{ but such schemes will be described in other documents.

{ Hi Phil and all,
{ 
{ I've got some comments on the marking document.
{ 
{ ===================================================
{ 
{ 
{ The abstract talks about a first and a second rate. Better: Threshold
{ marking marks all PCN-packets  if the PCN traffic rate is greater than
{ its configured  reference rate (PCN-threshold-rate). Excess marking
{ marks a proportion of PCN-packets, such that the amount of unmarked
{ packets equals the rate of its configured reference rate (PCN-excess-
{ rate).
{ 
ok

{ ===================================================
{ 
{ 
{ Intro:
{ 
{ "than some configured rate ..." -> than its reference rate
{ (PCN-threshold-rate).
{ The same one line below ... (PCN-excess-rate).
{ 
ok

{ ===================================================
{ 
{ 
{ [RFC3168] ... ; this document defines such an alternative.
{ Disagree: PCN marking is not intended to be delivered to end systems
and
{ is, therefore, it is not an alternative RED-like default congestion
{ marking. The only commonality between RED-like marking and
{ threshold/excess marking is that they re-mark the same codepoints.
{ 
see other email, need someone else to answer this one.

{ ===================================================
{ 
{ 
{ The explanation of meter talks about measurements which is misleading
at
{ this point of the document. Of course, later in the document is stated
{ that this does not tell anything about the implementation. Just try
{ another formulation avoiding the work measurement. Better:
{ 
{    o  Threshold meter: determine whether the rate of all PCN-packets
on a
{ link is
{       greater than its configured PCN-threshold-rate.
{ 
{    o  Excess traffic meter: measure by how much the rate of
PCN-packets on
{ a link
{       is greater than its configured PCN-excess-rate.
{ 
ok, I'll delete measurement. Would like to keep the mention of aggregate
pcn-pkts on link (rather than per flow). Although this is implied by the
MUSTs later on, it might not be obvious to the fresh reader. I'll add to
your text above something like "The threshold meter operates on the
aggregate of all PCN-packets on the link, and not on an individual
flow."

{ 
{ ===================================================
{ 
{    o  Competing-non-PCN-packet: a non PCN-packet that competes for the
{       same capacity as PCN-traffic.  "Capacity" means the forwarding
{       bandwidth on a link; "competes" means that competing-non-PCN-
{       packets will delay PCN-packets in the queue for the link.
{       Competing-non-PCN-packets MUST NOT be PCN-marked (ie only PCN-
{       packets can be PCN-marked).  Note: In general it is not advised
to
{       have any competing-non-PCN-traffic.
{ 
{ This is hard to understand. In addition, this is not precise as with
any
{ non-preemptive scheduling any non-PCN-traffic can delay
non-PCN-traffic.
{ Better:
{ 
{       Competing-non-PCN-packet: a non-PCN-packet sharing a link with
PCN-
{ packets
{       and competing with them for its forwarding bandwidth.
"Competing"
{ means
{       that it can be elected for transmission in spite of waiting PCN-
{ packets.
{       ...
{ 
{ Section 2.1 similar case.

Thanks. I struggled to get the phrasing nice, and I think your version
is better. 
{ 
{ ===================================================
{ 
{ Section 2.2
{ 
{    o  metering all metered-packets to determine if the level of
metered-
{       traffic is sufficiently high to overload the PCN behaviour
{       aggregate.  (According to [RFC2475] metering is "the process of
{       measuring the temporal properties (eg rate) of a traffic
stream".)
{ 
{ What does "to overload the PCN behaviour aggregate" mean?

I'll try & re-phrase & will look at diffserv phrasing when get time. I
meant something like 'faster than the BA can schedule'.
{ 
{ ===================================================
{ 
{    If the PCN-node drops PCN-packets then:
{ 
{    o  PCN-packets that arrive at the PCN-node already excess-traffic-
{       marked SHOULD be preferentially dropped;
{ 
{ This default behavior significantly delays direct measured rate
{ termination (DMRT) as well as marked flow termination (see Section
{ IV.B of [1] and Section V.D.4 of [2]). Thus, if these termination
{ methods should be further considered as  options, there must be a
choice
{ that unmarked PCN packets are dropped preferentially.
{ The presented drop preference is only beneficial for
{ indirect measured rate termination (IMRT). However, the implementation
{ of IMRT is quite complex as it needs to correlate distributed
measurements
{ and biased measurement intervals can lead to overtermination
{ (see Section IV.B of [1]). Therefore, I find it risky to close the
door
{ for other termination methods by recommending only preferential
dropping
{ of marked packets.
{

{ [2] http://www3.informatik.uni-
{ wuerzburg.de/staff/menth/Publications/papers/Menth08-PCN-MFT.pdf

This was discussed extensively before. The current text represents the
WG consensus decision. Is there new information or argument that means
the WG consensus might change?
{ 
{ ===================================================
{ 
{ Section 2.4
{ 
{    In addition to the above, if the token bucket is within an MTU of
{    being empty, then the meter SHOULD indicate to the Marking function
{    that the packet is to be excess-traffic-marked; MTU means the
maximum
{    size of PCN-packets on the link.  Otherwise the meter MUST NOT
{    indicate marking.
{ 
{ Some statement should say that this choice has been made to achieve
{ packet-size-independent marking.

I'll add a pointer to the appendix where this is explained.

{ markers in specific deployment scenarios. Doing that in the main body
of
{ the documents sounds like excluding other use, e.g. for

{ flow termination with only a single DSCP. I suggest decoupling the
{ description
{ of the meter and marker functions from their joint behavior which

{ the specific encoding.

See other email. Thanks. This would reduce this section to just the
start: the list of bullets, plus:
A PCN-packet MUST be marked to reflect the metering results, by setting
its encoding state as specified by the specific encoding that applies in
the PCN-domain.

{ 
{ ===================================================
{ 
{ General
{ 
{ "Threshold marking" is not a good name for the algorithm. The name was
a
{ working
{ name in some email conversations of Anna and me. It was inspired by
the
{ fact that
{ the token bucket based mechanism used a threshold to trigger the
marking,
{ the
{ name was tight to the specific token bucket implementation, not well
{ deliberated
{ and not intended for eternal use. There are several reasons why a
{ different name
{ should be chosen:
{ 1) This document explicitly states that no special implementation
should
{ be mandated.
{ 2) Also implementations of excess traffic marking use thresholds, e.g.
for
{ implementing the MTU check.
{ 3) The name threshold marking does not say what the algorithm does.
{ Therefore, I propose exhaustive marking.
{ 
{ I do not see why an obviously bad nomenclature should be used if
better
{ nomenclature exists. It prevents people from memorizing what the
marking
{ behavior does
{ which is important for quickly understanding the technology. Ok, this
last
{ note is
{ a matter of style. It is important but not as important as the
{ introduction of an
{ admissible and  supportable rate in the architecture draft to allow
for a
{ description of
{ the PCN concept independently of any specific deployment scenario.

). 
Although in isolation I also prefer exhaustive marking, in practice I
think having the names "exhaustive marking" and "excess traffic marking"
would be very confusing. They are just too similar names &
abbreviations.
I chatted with anna in Dublin about alternative names - but we failed to
think of anything better than threshold marking that didn't start 'ex'

On the subject of the addition of the terms admissible and supportable
rate to the architecture draft, so far I think we have 2 people in
favour, 2 against (excluding me) and everyone else indifferent or at
least silent.

Hi Phil,

I think you understood my point. I try to clarify a bit more what I and 
possibly you also mean.

Marking documents should cover only the individual behavior of the
markers and not reveal too many specifics about their exact
application in specific PCN deployment scenarios.
 Input: set of packets to be metered, set of packets to be marked
 Output: set of marked packets

The encoding documents should define the codepoints, explain their
semantics, and give constraints about their usage.

Documents about deployment scenarios should describe the behavior
of PCN nodes, the correct configuration of the markers and bind
their action to the specific encoding. This document should
give the glue, i.e. it tells how conditioning is done, which meters and
markers are used and configured with which reference rates, which 
packets are input
for the meters and markers, and how metering results are translated into
encodings.

There are two major possibilities for the description of a specific PCN 
architecture.

1. Provide marking and encoding drafts as generic building blocks. An 
additional document explains how they are used in a specific deployment 
scenario. There may be one deployment scenario or more, depending on 
whether a single one covers all needs. The current objective of the 
group is to define one deployment scenario and keep the door open for 
others just in case the one does not satisfy the application scenarios. 
That's at least my understanding.

2. Provide marking and encoding drafts as parts of a specific deployment 
scenario. This degrades readability of the documents and prevents simple 
extension of PCN since the building blocks are not generic and must be 
changed to describe alternative deployment scenarios.

Currently I see that the second path is taken because the marking draft 
contains a lot deployment specific assumptions. I don't know whether 
this happened intentionally or not.

Regards,

    Michael

this wasn't intentional on my part. But I know this is something that I
have to make an effort to avoid, so would appreciate it if you could
point out places where the marking draft makes deployment specific

Appendix will be deleted in the next version (it's basically a reminder
to the WG that we seem to need a PDB doc, and we need someone to write
it (not me!))

Hi Michael,

Thank you. This is a very clear description of the functional split
between the different documents that are needed for PCN. Unfortunately
at the moment we have a difficult situation where the split has not been
cleanly achieved. What is missing is the set of documents describing how
to collect all the pieces of PCN together into a working system. The
Architecture document is the basis for such documents but has had to
leave some options open to cater for the different possible deployment
scenarios.

As you correctly say we are currently nearer to your option 2. than your
option 1. This runs the risk of limiting us in future when we come to
expand PCN and also makes it harder to re-use PCN as a building block
for other systems.

There would seem to be 2 possible approaches we can take:

A) We improve the current structure by (for instance) merging the "how
it all works" bits as a Part B to the Encoding document. This is not the
best option as it slightly precludes the encoding documents from being
used for more general purposes in the future. Also the documents
describing how to assemble a system are most likely to be informational
whilst the encoding is standards track.

B) We find willing authors to take on the jobs of writing deployment
documents bringing together all the snippets of text that already exist
and creating a coherent whole from them. This would be a reasonably
straight-forward task but would require careful thought as there are a
number of sensible deployments that are possible currently. This is
pretty much what you describe in your option 2. 

Myself and Phil really have no time to write new documents for PCN so
the decision on which way to go depends on enough people volunteering to
write new documents. I can probably find time to assist with editing
such documents but can't take sole ownership...

Toby

Hi Phil,

I think you understood my point. I try to clarify a bit more what I and 
possibly you also mean.

Marking documents should cover only the individual behavior of the
markers and not reveal too many specifics about their exact
application in specific PCN deployment scenarios.
 Input: set of packets to be metered, set of packets to be marked
 Output: set of marked packets

The encoding documents should define the codepoints, explain their
semantics, and give constraints about their usage.

Documents about deployment scenarios should describe the behavior
of PCN nodes, the correct configuration of the markers and bind
their action to the specific encoding. This document should
give the glue, i.e. it tells how conditioning is done, which meters and
markers are used and configured with which reference rates, which 
packets are input
for the meters and markers, and how metering results are translated into
encodings.

There are two major possibilities for the description of a specific PCN 
architecture.

1. Provide marking and encoding drafts as generic building blocks. An 
additional document explains how they are used in a specific deployment 
scenario. There may be one deployment scenario or more, depending on 
whether a single one covers all needs. The current objective of the 
group is to define one deployment scenario and keep the door open for 
others just in case the one does not satisfy the application scenarios. 
That's at least my understanding.

2. Provide marking and encoding drafts as parts of a specific deployment

scenario. This degrades readability of the documents and prevents simple

extension of PCN since the building blocks are not generic and must be 
changed to describe alternative deployment scenarios.

Currently I see that the second path is taken because the marking draft 
contains a lot deployment specific assumptions. I don't know whether 
this happened intentionally or not.

Regards,

    Michael

ICCRG and PCN WG,

This is an solicitation of interest for doing work in TSVWG around
updating the ECN handling for tunnels along the lines of
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-briscoe-tsvwg-ecn-tunnel-01.txt

More specifically we are considering to adopt this document as a WG item.

Please provide any feedback to the TSVWG (tsvwg@ietf.org)

Thanks

Phil, Michael,

RFC3168 is primarly in two parts. The spec for IP, and the spec for TCP.

The IP part applies regardless of whether ECN is used e2e or 
proxy-end or proxy-proxy or edge-edge or whatever.

The TCP part applies e2e.

Just because 3168 ECN in IP was spec'd with TCP as the transport, it 
was not just intended to be used e2e. It is in this sense that the 
PCN marking draft is equivalent to the use of an AQM like RED to 
introduce explicit congestion notification.

According to Sally Floyd (when I asked her about why the two had been 
put in one spec) she initially intended 3168 to be split between 
network & transport. But the IESG wanted to make sure that ECN didn't 
get implemented in IP without saying how it should be responded to by 
the transport. Otherwise it could have created an unsafe situation if 
people wrote their own transports to use the new IP-ECN facility 
without any guidance for how it should be used. The TCP part of 3168 
was intended to not only be the spec for TCP, but guidance on doing 
something similar in other e2e transports. Sally told me they had 
other edge-edge transports in mind when writing 3168, but they would 
be deferred for later definition.

I had a discussion with Steve and we're suggesting this as a way forward
to resolve the issues.=20

Add the terms PCN-admissible-rate and PCN-supportable-rate as additional
terminology. Don't make wholesale text changes to the doc, but use these
terms in a few paragraphs. Then post these to the list, and ask for
comments.  So this is the post with the changes and the asking!

Thanks

Phil

=20

S2 Terminology:

Add: PCN-admissible-rate: the rate of PCN-traffic on a link up to which
PCN admission control should accept new PCN-flows.=20

Add: PCN-supportable-rate: the rate of PCN-traffic on a link down to
which PCN flow termination should, if necessary, terminate already
admitted PCN-flows.

=20

S3: Benefits:

Bullet 2: change "The PCN-threshold-rate on each link can be chosen
small enough that admitted traffic can still be carried after a
rerouting in most failure cases" to "The PCN-admissible-rate on each
link can be chosen small enough that admitted traffic can still be
carried after a rerouting in most failure cases"

=20

Bullet 9: change "The PCN-excess-rate may be set below the maximum rate
that PCN-traffic can be transmitted on a link..." to "The
PCN-supportable-rate may be set below the maximum rate that PCN-traffic
can be transmitted on a link..."

=20

S4 Deployment scenarios:

In Figure 1, under "PCN-excess-rate" add "(=3DPCN-supportable-rate)" &
under "PCN-threshold-rate" add "(=3DPCN-admissible-rate)"

=20

S6.1 Flow admission

Change the first para from:

The objective of PCN's flow admission control mechanism is to limit
   the PCN-traffic on each link in the PCN-domain to *roughly* its PCN-
   threshold-rate, by admitting or blocking prospective new flows, in
   order to protect the QoS of existing PCN-flows.  The PCN-threshold-
   rate is a parameter that can be configured by the operator and will
   be set lower than the traffic rate at which the link becomes
   congested and the node drops packets.

   the PCN-traffic on each link in the PCN-domain to *roughly* its PCN-
   admissible-rate, by admitting or blocking prospective new flows, in

states available, the PCN-threshold-
   rate is configured by the operator as equal to the
PCN-admissible-rate on each link. It is set lower than the traffic rate
at which the link becomes congested and the node drops packets.=20
=20
S6.2 Flow termination:

Change the first para from:

The objective of PCN's flow termination mechanism is to limit the
   PCN-traffic on each link to *roughly* its PCN-excess-rate, by
   terminating some existing PCN-flows, in order to protect the QoS of
   the remaining PCN-flows.  The PCN-excess-rate is a parameter that can
   be configured by the operator and may be set lower than the traffic
   rate at which the link becomes congested and the node drops packets.

PCN-excess-rate is configured by the operator as equal to the
PCN-supportable-rate on each link. It may be set lower than the traffic
   rate at which the link becomes congested and the node drops packets.
=20
S6.3 Flow admission and/or flow termination when there are only two PCN
      encoding states:
3rd bullet, change:
o  both admission control and flow termination: only the excess-
      traffic-marking algorithm writes PCN-marks, however the configured
      rate (PCN-excess-rate) is set at the rate the admission control
      mechanism needs to limit PCN-traffic to, as shown in Figure 2.

o  both admission control and flow termination: only the excess-
      traffic-marking algorithm writes PCN-marks, however the configured
      rate (PCN-excess-rate) is set equal to the PCN-admissible-rate, as
shown in Figure 2.
=20
In Figure 2:=20

under "U*PCN-excess-rate"  add "(=3DPCN-supportable-rate)" & under
"PCN-excess-rate" add "(=3DPCN-admissible-rate)"

Subject: [PCN] Architecture terminology



I had a discussion with Steve and we're suggesting this as a way forward =
to resolve the issues.=20

Add the terms PCN-admissible-rate and PCN-supportable-rate as additional =
terminology. Don't make wholesale text changes to the doc, but use these =
terms in a few paragraphs. Then post these to the list, and ask for =
comments.  So this is the post with the changes and the asking!

Thanks

Phil

S2 Terminology:

Add: PCN-admissible-rate: the rate of PCN-traffic on a link up to which =
PCN admission control should accept new PCN-flows.=20

Add: PCN-supportable-rate: the rate of PCN-traffic on a link down to =
which PCN flow termination should, if necessary, terminate already =
admitted PCN-flows.

=20

S3: Benefits:

Bullet 2: change "The PCN-threshold-rate on each link can be chosen =
small enough that admitted traffic can still be carried after a =
rerouting in most failure cases" to "The PCN-admissible-rate on each =
link can be chosen small enough that admitted traffic can still be =
carried after a rerouting in most failure cases"

=20

Bullet 9: change "The PCN-excess-rate may be set below the maximum rate =
that PCN-traffic can be transmitted on a link..." to "The =
PCN-supportable-rate may be set below the maximum rate that PCN-traffic =
can be transmitted on a link..."

=20

S4 Deployment scenarios:

In Figure 1, under "PCN-excess-rate" add "(=3DPCN-supportable-rate)" & =
under "PCN-threshold-rate" add "(=3DPCN-admissible-rate)"

S6.1 Flow admission

Change the first para from:

The objective of PCN's flow admission control mechanism is to limit
   the PCN-traffic on each link in the PCN-domain to *roughly* its PCN-
   threshold-rate, by admitting or blocking prospective new flows, in
   order to protect the QoS of existing PCN-flows.  The PCN-threshold-
   rate is a parameter that can be configured by the operator and will
   be set lower than the traffic rate at which the link becomes
   congested and the node drops packets.

states available, the PCN-threshold-
   rate is configured by the operator as equal to the =
PCN-admissible-rate on each link. It is set lower than the traffic rate =
at which the link becomes congested and the node drops packets.=20

S6.2 Flow termination:

Change the first para from:

The objective of PCN's flow termination mechanism is to limit the
   PCN-traffic on each link to *roughly* its PCN-excess-rate, by
   terminating some existing PCN-flows, in order to protect the QoS of
   the remaining PCN-flows.  The PCN-excess-rate is a parameter that can
   be configured by the operator and may be set lower than the traffic
   rate at which the link becomes congested and the node drops packets.

      encoding states:
3rd bullet, change:
o  both admission control and flow termination: only the excess-
      traffic-marking algorithm writes PCN-marks, however the configured
      rate (PCN-excess-rate) is set at the rate the admission control
      mechanism needs to limit PCN-traffic to, as shown in Figure 2.

	Subject: [PCN] Architecture terminology
=09
=09

	I had a discussion with Steve and we're suggesting this as a way
forward to resolve the issues.=20

	Add the terms PCN-admissible-rate and PCN-supportable-rate as
additional terminology. Don't make wholesale text changes to the doc,
but use these terms in a few paragraphs. Then post these to the list,
and ask for comments.  So this is the post with the changes and the
asking!

	Thanks

	Phil

	S2 Terminology:

	Add: PCN-admissible-rate: the rate of PCN-traffic on a link up
to which PCN admission control should accept new PCN-flows.=20

	Add: PCN-supportable-rate: the rate of PCN-traffic on a link
down to which PCN flow termination should, if necessary, terminate
already admitted PCN-flows.

	=20

	S3: Benefits:

	Bullet 2: change "The PCN-threshold-rate on each link can be
chosen small enough that admitted traffic can still be carried after a
rerouting in most failure cases" to "The PCN-admissible-rate on each
link can be chosen small enough that admitted traffic can still be
carried after a rerouting in most failure cases"

	=20

	Bullet 9: change "The PCN-excess-rate may be set below the
maximum rate that PCN-traffic can be transmitted on a link..." to "The
PCN-supportable-rate may be set below the maximum rate that PCN-traffic
can be transmitted on a link..."

	=20

	S4 Deployment scenarios:

	In Figure 1, under "PCN-excess-rate" add
"(=3DPCN-supportable-rate)" & under "PCN-threshold-rate" add
"(=3DPCN-admissible-rate)"

	=20

	S6.1 Flow admission

	Change the first para from:

	The objective of PCN's flow admission control mechanism is to
limit
	   the PCN-traffic on each link in the PCN-domain to *roughly*
its PCN-
	   threshold-rate, by admitting or blocking prospective new
flows, in
	   order to protect the QoS of existing PCN-flows.  The
PCN-threshold-
	   rate is a parameter that can be configured by the operator
and will
	   be set lower than the traffic rate at which the link becomes
	   congested and the node drops packets.
	To:
	The objective of PCN's flow admission control mechanism is to
limit
	   the PCN-traffic on each link in the PCN-domain to *roughly*
its PCN-
	   admissible-rate, by admitting or blocking prospective new
flows, in
	   order to protect the QoS of existing PCN-flows. With three
encoding states available, the PCN-threshold-
	   rate is configured by the operator as equal to the
PCN-admissible-rate on each link. It is set lower than the traffic rate
at which the link becomes congested and the node drops packets.=20
	=20
	S6.2 Flow termination:

	Change the first para from:

	The objective of PCN's flow termination mechanism is to limit
the
	   PCN-traffic on each link to *roughly* its PCN-excess-rate, by
	   terminating some existing PCN-flows, in order to protect the
QoS of
	   the remaining PCN-flows.  The PCN-excess-rate is a parameter
that can
	   be configured by the operator and may be set lower than the
traffic
	   rate at which the link becomes congested and the node drops
packets.
	To:
	The objective of PCN's flow termination mechanism is to limit
the
	   PCN-traffic on each link to *roughly* its
PCN-supportable-rate, by
	   terminating some existing PCN-flows, in order to protect the
QoS of
	   the remaining PCN-flows.  With three encoding states
available, the PCN-excess-rate is configured by the operator as equal to
the PCN-supportable-rate on each link. It may be set lower than the
traffic
	   rate at which the link becomes congested and the node drops
packets.
	=20
	S6.3 Flow admission and/or flow termination when there are only
two PCN
	      encoding states:
	3rd bullet, change:
	o  both admission control and flow termination: only the excess-
	      traffic-marking algorithm writes PCN-marks, however the
configured
	      rate (PCN-excess-rate) is set at the rate the admission
control
	      mechanism needs to limit PCN-traffic to, as shown in
Figure 2.
	To:
	o  both admission control and flow termination: only the excess-
	      traffic-marking algorithm writes PCN-marks, however the
configured
	      rate (PCN-excess-rate) is set equal to the
PCN-admissible-rate, as shown in Figure 2.
	=20
	In Figure 2:=20

	under "U*PCN-excess-rate"  add "(=3DPCN-supportable-rate)" & under
"PCN-excess-rate" add "(=3DPCN-admissible-rate)"

Firstly the changes are OK with me.

I think perhaps this whole debate highlights (and is symptomatic of)
something that Michael was getting at in his earlier email thread
relating to the marking draft. To summarise that thread:

PCN consists of 3 core ideas: methods of metering and marking packets,
methods to convey those marks and a way to join all the pieces into a
coherent whole in a given system (designed for a given deployment
scenario). All these need separate documents. Over the top of all that
lies the PCN architecture document which sets out an overall framework
into which all the pieces have to fit.

I think much of the current debate stems from the architecture document
having to describe both an overall framework but also having to include
at least some guidance on how to integrate all the pieces. It is this
integration part that leads to the discussion between which terminology
is best...

As I said before I strongly support this being adopted as a TSVWG workgroup=
. This work is necessary to correct an anomaly that currently exists betwee=
n RFC 3168 and RFC 4301.

This has implications for any PCN encoding scheme as any scheme will be har=
med by the presence of 3168 tunnels (of either flavour). The anomaly also m=
akes it impossible for a vendor to comply with both 3168 and 4301 at the sa=
me time...

Subject: [PCN] Solicting interest in update of ECN handling around tunnels

ICCRG and PCN WG,

This is an solicitation of interest for doing work in TSVWG around
updating the ECN handling for tunnels along the lines of
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-briscoe-tsvwg-ecn-tunnel-01.txt

More specifically we are considering to adopt this document as a WG item.

Please provide any feedback to the TSVWG (tsvwg@ietf.org)

Thanks

This updates with all the comments from the 2nd WGLC:-

   o  Section 2: added definition for PCN-admissible-rate and PCN-
      supportable-rate.  Small changes to use these terms as follows:
      Section 3, bullets 2 & 9; S6.1 para 1; S6.2 para1; S6.3 bullet 3;
      added to Figs 1 & 2.

   o  added the phrase "(others might be possible") before the list of
      approaches in Section 6.3, 7.4 & 7.5.

   o  added references to RFC2753 (A framework for policy-based
      admission control) in S7.4 & S7.5.

   o  throughout, updated references now that marking behaviour &
      baseline encoding are WG drafts.

   o  a few typos corrected

changes also can be seen at

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Congestion and Pre-Congestion Notification Working Group of the IETF.


	Title           : Marking behaviour of PCN-nodes
	Author(s)       : P. Eardley
	Filename        : draft-ietf-pcn-marking-behaviour-01.txt
	Pages           : 19
	Date            : 2008-10-20

This document standardises the two marking behaviours of PCN-nodes:
threshold marking and excess traffic marking.  Threshold marking
marks all PCN-packets if the PCN traffic rate is greater than its
configured rate.  Excess traffic marking marks a proportion of PCN-
packets, such that the amount marked equals the traffic rate in
excess of its configured rate.  Setting the configured rates below
the physical link rates enables PCN-nodes to provide information to
support admission control and flow termination in order to protect
the quality of service of established inelastic flows.

Hi
I updated the doc to take account of Michael's comments (thanks!) and a
few things I spotted. Changes are clarifications etc - no changes in the
MUSTs etc

My intent at the Minneapolis meeting is to ask for WG last call. So any
comments before then appreciated.

Thanks
Phil

Michael,

your proposal 1. below sounds better to me than proposal 2. To ensure useful 
standardisation results, the WG should define a PCN cookbook (a defined 
structure of a PCN realisation, the structure should be standards track) 
and provide at least on example of a PCN recipe (you call it deployment
scenario, should be informational - unless the WG succeeds in consenting on a 
single one).

I'm not sure, whether the architecture doc is that cookbook or is meant 
to become it. It may be a better idea to work with the architecture doc 
as a framework and later, after we have RFCs on coding, marking and so 
on, indicate how to build a PCN solution.

Regards,

Ruediger

Hi Phil,

I think you understood my point. I try to clarify a bit more what I and 
possibly you also mean.

Marking documents should cover only the individual behavior of the
markers and not reveal too many specifics about their exact
application in specific PCN deployment scenarios.
 Input: set of packets to be metered, set of packets to be marked
 Output: set of marked packets

The encoding documents should define the codepoints, explain their
semantics, and give constraints about their usage.

Documents about deployment scenarios should describe the behavior
of PCN nodes, the correct configuration of the markers and bind
their action to the specific encoding. This document should
give the glue, i.e. it tells how conditioning is done, which meters and
markers are used and configured with which reference rates, which 
packets are input
for the meters and markers, and how metering results are translated into
encodings.

There are two major possibilities for the description of a specific PCN 
architecture.

1. Provide marking and encoding drafts as generic building blocks. An 
additional document explains how they are used in a specific deployment 
scenario. There may be one deployment scenario or more, depending on 
whether a single one covers all needs. The current objective of the 
group is to define one deployment scenario and keep the door open for 
others just in case the one does not satisfy the application scenarios. 
That's at least my understanding.

2. Provide marking and encoding drafts as parts of a specific deployment 
scenario. This degrades readability of the documents and prevents simple 
extension of PCN since the building blocks are not generic and must be 
changed to describe alternative deployment scenarios.

Currently I see that the second path is taken because the marking draft 
contains a lot deployment specific assumptions. I don't know whether 
this happened intentionally or not.

Regards,

    Michael

Toby,

thanks for adding more content in the reviewed version. Apart from my 
support of Michaels proposal 1., I still would like to comment on 
some of your new text: 

Appendix B, Table 2, row "ingress"

If "PM" is an invalid codepoint out, then the ingress node does not 
belong to the PCN domain. As far as I understood, indication of 
pre-congestion on a link is signaled by a PM mark. The ingress 
node following your specification in row "ingress" however 
can't signal pre-congestion.

Specifying behaviours for unexpected codepoints is a necessity and 
writing down this requirement adds value to the document. The 
question is, whether forward compatibility benefits from handling 
EXP as NM. The whole topic is in fact a marking issue, and there
it should be dealt with. Thoughts on your proposal:
- Could a future extension exist, where there's no transition 
  from EXP to PM? Then your proposal is harmful.
- What you don't discuss, as you are writing the encoding draft,
  is whether the EXP packets should be metered by an interior 
  node just supporting baseline encoding. I think they should be. 
  But may be, I'm wrong and all of this discussion on receiving 
  packets with unexpected codings and backward/forward 
  compatibility should be a requirement for a PCN deployment 
  scenario document.

Regards,

Ruediger

As promised I have uploaded a new version. I am aware there are a handful of typos and spelling mistakes that I noticed just after uploading. I will correct these in the next version. I am now pretty happy with almost all the text.

The key section for the WG to note is Appendix B where I have put in a couple of questions that I would welcome input on. 

The first of these is where to put the text (now set out as a table) about valid and invalid transitions at PCN nodes? Should this be part of the baseline encoding or should it be split between a new edge node behaviour document and Phil's marking behaviour.

The second question relates to how to best handle the unexpected presence of the EXP codepoint. There is a potential for this to happen during any partial deployment of an experimental encoding extension scheme. Whilst it would be best for an operator to ensure all nodes run the same encoding there is a chance this might not happen. The best solution as I see it is for the baseline scheme to treat EXP the same as NM but to raise a management alarm...

I have also highlighted another point in Appendix A which needs a decision: should we as a WG recommend that RFC3168 full functionality tunnels SHOULD NOT be used in a PCN-domain or would it be better to put our collective voices behind Bob's attempts to correct the anomalous behaviour of tunnels which he is currently trying to push through TSVWG (draft-briscoe-tsvwg-ecn-tunnel-01)

A new version of I-D, draft-ietf-pcn-baseline-encoding-01.txt has been successfuly submitted by T Moncaster and posted to the IETF repository.

Filename:	 draft-ietf-pcn-baseline-encoding
Revision:	 01
Title:		 Baseline Encoding and Transport of Pre-Congestion Information
Creation_date:	 2008-10-14
WG ID:		 pcn
Number_of_pages: 12

Abstract:
Pre-congestion notification (PCN) provides information to support
admission control and flow termination in order to protect the
Quality of Service of inelastic flows.  It does this by marking
packets when traffic load on a link is approaching or has exceeded a
threshold below the physical link rate.  This document specifies how
such marks are to be encoded into the IP header.  The baseline
encoding described here provides for only two PCN encoding states.
It is designed to be easily extended to provide more encoding states
but such schemes will be described in other documents.

Hi Ruediger,

my thinking is what you also suspect at the end of your email: the 
description of the packets to be metered and the packets to be re-marked 
is part of the deployment model and meters and markers must be 
configurable with regard to this respect. The same applies to drop 
preferences. It does not mean that anything can be done in PCN. The 
restrictions come through the deployment models that say which building 
blocks MUST be used and how they MUST be configured. Then, metering and 
marking can be kept general and encoding does not need to know anything 
about its future use.

Regards,

    Michael

Hi Ruediger,

My argument for making PM an invalid transition for a PCN-ingress node
is that in my head I have a conceptual model that views the PCN region
as consisting of a number of nodes that do PCN marking surrounded by a
fence of PCN-boundary nodes. These boundary nodes simply control ingress
and egress from the region and don't actually do any marking. Of course
in practise the ingress and egress nodes would also have marking
functionality but it is easier to think of them as separate nodes.

As far as I know there is no current proposed extension where EXP can't
be marked to PM. Even in Bob's proposal with fully working tunnels EXP
could be remarked to PM. The question I had in my head was the other way
round: If we don't specify a behaviour for EXP in the baseline will
extension encodings still work if any nodes haven't been upgraded? The
answer to that seemed to be "no" for the majority of proposals (apart
from the simple variant of 3 state encoding).

As you say we also need to decide what to do with EXP packets regarding
metering. I think as currently written Phil's draft allows them to be
metered but I will check that with him.

Toby

Toby,

thanks for adding more content in the reviewed version. Apart from my 
support of Michaels proposal 1., I still would like to comment on 
some of your new text: 

Appendix B, Table 2, row "ingress"

If "PM" is an invalid codepoint out, then the ingress node does not 
belong to the PCN domain. As far as I understood, indication of 
pre-congestion on a link is signaled by a PM mark. The ingress 
node following your specification in row "ingress" however 
can't signal pre-congestion.

Specifying behaviours for unexpected codepoints is a necessity and 
writing down this requirement adds value to the document. The 
question is, whether forward compatibility benefits from handling 
EXP as NM. The whole topic is in fact a marking issue, and there
it should be dealt with. Thoughts on your proposal:
- Could a future extension exist, where there's no transition 
  from EXP to PM? Then your proposal is harmful.
- What you don't discuss, as you are writing the encoding draft,
  is whether the EXP packets should be metered by an interior 
  node just supporting baseline encoding. I think they should be. 
  But may be, I'm wrong and all of this discussion on receiving 
  packets with unexpected codings and backward/forward 
  compatibility should be a requirement for a PCN deployment 
  scenario document.

Regards,

Ruediger

As promised I have uploaded a new version. I am aware there are a
handful of typos and spelling mistakes that I noticed just after
uploading. I will correct these in the next version. I am now pretty
happy with almost all the text.

The key section for the WG to note is Appendix B where I have put in a
couple of questions that I would welcome input on. 

The first of these is where to put the text (now set out as a table)
about valid and invalid transitions at PCN nodes? Should this be part of
the baseline encoding or should it be split between a new edge node
behaviour document and Phil's marking behaviour.

The second question relates to how to best handle the unexpected
presence of the EXP codepoint. There is a potential for this to happen
during any partial deployment of an experimental encoding extension
scheme. Whilst it would be best for an operator to ensure all nodes run
the same encoding there is a chance this might not happen. The best
solution as I see it is for the baseline scheme to treat EXP the same as
NM but to raise a management alarm...

I have also highlighted another point in Appendix A which needs a
decision: should we as a WG recommend that RFC3168 full functionality
tunnels SHOULD NOT be used in a PCN-domain or would it be better to put
our collective voices behind Bob's attempts to correct the anomalous
behaviour of tunnels which he is currently trying to push through TSVWG

A new version of I-D, draft-ietf-pcn-baseline-encoding-01.txt has been
successfuly submitted by T Moncaster and posted to the IETF repository.

Filename:	 draft-ietf-pcn-baseline-encoding
Revision:	 01
Title:		 Baseline Encoding and Transport of Pre-Congestion
Information
Creation_date:	 2008-10-14
WG ID:		 pcn
Number_of_pages: 12

Abstract:
Pre-congestion notification (PCN) provides information to support
admission control and flow termination in order to protect the
Quality of Service of inelastic flows.  It does this by marking
packets when traffic load on a link is approaching or has exceeded a
threshold below the physical link rate.  This document specifies how
such marks are to be encoded into the IP header.  The baseline
encoding described here provides for only two PCN encoding states.
It is designed to be easily extended to provide more encoding states
but such schemes will be described in other documents.

{ 

PCN-pkts with EXP encoding are still PCN-pkts. Therefore they MUST be
treated as a metered-pkt. 

Quotes from
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pcn-marking-behaviour-01 

   o  Metered-packet: a packet that is metered by the metering functions
      specified below.  A PCN-packet MUST be treated as a metered-packet
      (with the minor exception noted below in Section 2.4).  

   A PCN-node MUST classify a packet as a PCN-packet if the value of its
   DSCP and ECN fields correspond to a PCN-enabled codepoint, as defined
   in the encoding scheme applicable to the PCN-domain.  Otherwise the
   packet MUST NOT be classified as a PCN-packet.

I disagree with this to some extent. 

I think that what pkts are metered and what re-marked is something to be
standardised in the encoding drafts. This allows each to be carefully
thought about and for manufacturers to say that their kit is conformant
with a STD. putting this in a deployment model is not as good - there
will (assuming pcn's success) potentially be many deployment models, and
many deployment models based on a particular encoding. The framework is
that the behaviour of the interior nodes (in terms of both marking
behaviour & encoding) is simple and clear, without a whole lot of
configurable options. Meanwhile, there's more freedom in terms of the
behaviour of the gateways in how they interpret these marks. Of course
it may turn out that in practice there are only a couple of good sets of
gateway behaviour.
Anyway, I read your email as proposing that the marking and encoding
should allow lots of freedom with lots of configurable options, and that
the deployment models should be where things are standardised in anger.
I disagree with that.

{ The key section for the WG to note is Appendix B where I have put in a
{ couple of questions that I would welcome input on.
{ 
{ The first of these is where to put the text (now set out as a table)
about
{ valid and invalid transitions at PCN nodes? Should this be part of the
{ baseline encoding or should it be split between a new edge node
behaviour
{ document and Phil's marking behaviour.

My view is that this should be in the encoding drafts, as what
transitions are valid depends on the encoding (eg the answer would be
different for PSDM). However, I also think - since other encodings are
seen as extensions of the baseline encoding - that the baseline should
define what 'extensions' means - it presumably means that there are
restrictions on those other encodings in terms of what transitions are
valid, eg that 11 MUST correspond to some kind of PCN-marking. 

{ 
{ The second question relates to how to best handle the unexpected
presence
{ of the EXP codepoint. There is a potential for this to happen during
any
{ partial deployment of an experimental encoding extension scheme.
Whilst it
{ would be best for an operator to ensure all nodes run the same
encoding
{ there is a chance this might not happen. The best solution as I see it
is
{ for the baseline scheme to treat EXP the same as NM but to raise a
{ management alarm...

I think this is reasonable. 

{ 
{ I have also highlighted another point in Appendix A which needs a
{ decision: should we as a WG recommend that RFC3168 full functionality
{ tunnels SHOULD NOT be used in a PCN-domain or would it be better to
put
{ our collective voices behind Bob's attempts to correct the anomalous
{ behaviour of tunnels which he is currently trying to push through
TSVWG
{ (draft-briscoe-tsvwg-ecn-tunnel-01)

'should we recommend...' - don't know.
'should we put our collective voices..' - yes.

Phil,

my view is, that the coding and marking as they are specified right now are =

allright, but may have to be reduced to the bare functionality specified. =

Examples of deployment models and references to documents specifying them
could be given - but these should be teasers, no lengthy descriptions.

Separate documents may discuss different deployment models. There and only =

there, flexibility should be allowed. I also think, PCN should generally =

leave room for experimental extensions (like PCN sucessfully does eg. =

with experimental three codepoint marking schemes). =


A question coming to my mind is, whether we are able to consent on further =

standard ingress/egrees node functionalities apart from baseline coding =

and marking behaviour. Egress measurement functions is one such topic. =

The more such basic standard functionalities we can agree on, the better.

My general philosophy is: define a common starting point. Leave room to =

learn and adapt systems, once we all started from the common starting =

point. What I dislike, and I think we aggree on that, is parallel =

customisation of different solutions from start on. =


Regards,

Ruediger

Hi Phil, =

[Phil]:
Not sure what you mean, what needs reducing? (not sure if this is cutting o=

some of the MUSTS/SHOULDS or cutting some of the explanatory material)

[Ru]: =

On a general level if anything should be cut out, explanatory material (I m=
ay =

have review comments on content, but that's not what I'm talking about here=
).
Please also note that by the above I'm not critising your draft as containi=

I don't know if it is what Phil is doing but personally my approach in the =
encoding draft has been to include explanatory text whilst the document mat=
ures with the intention of then removing most of the explanation once the d=
ocument becomes ready to be last-called and moved to RFC.

Hi Toby,

Appendix B of your actual draft caused some controversy. Is it intended to =

be normative (don't recall what your text says) or just raising attention =

to some topics to be discussed? =


The appendix free version of your draft is well written, if it comes to me.

Regards,

Ruediger

I don't know if it is what Phil is doing but personally my approach in the =
encoding draft has been to include explanatory text whilst the document mat=

For the marking behaviour draft, both the Appendices are Informative. App A=
 is examples of algos that meet the std. app B is explanation /discussion /=
comments on the std. Whether or not it's worth keeping either of them in th=
e actual rfc, I don't have a particular view on. Personally I like to see t=
he reasons for things, but I suppose this could always be done by reference=
 (the rfc could say something like "see the I-D App B for explanations"???)

For App B of the encoding draft, my view is that this should be normative (=
not yet studied whether I agree with all the content)

The appendices are meant to be informative and will either disappear in the=
 final version or will move to a different document. Appendix A will go com=
pletely as it will just reference Bob's work on tunnelling, Appendix B will=
 be partially incorporated (in response to WG responses to the questions I =
put in there) and Appendix C will be probably be replaced with a future dep=
loyment model draft(s).

For the marking behaviour draft, both the Appendices are Informative. App A=
 is examples of algos that meet the std. app B is explanation /discussion /=
comments on the std. Whether or not it's worth keeping either of them in th=
e actual rfc, I don't have a particular view on. Personally I like to see t=
he reasons for things, but I suppose this could always be done by reference=
 (the rfc could say something like "see the I-D App B for explanations"???)

For App B of the encoding draft, my view is that this should be normative (=
not yet studied whether I agree with all the content)

Hi Phil,

yes, you are right. My example was ill-conceived. Currently I cannot 
think either of a sensible deployment model that would not meter all PCN 
packets for threshold marking and all unmarked PCN packets for excess 
marking.

My comment actually concerns the dropping behavior. Its definition in 
the marking draft unnecessarily constrains the use of the meters and 
markers and should be rather defined by deployment models.

Of course, only sensible freedom should be allowed in the marking and 
encoding draft. What sensible freedom is depends on which deployment 
models should be able to be basically supported. Now or possibly in the 
future.

Regards,

    Michael

Hi Phil,

the issue is whether the marking draft should also restrict drop 
preferences. Dropping of marked packets is not needed from a general 
marking perspective. It's only needed for indirect measured rate 
termination which is only one termination option out of many others. 
Requiring preferential dropping of special packets only limits the 
number of options of what you can do with PCN marking. Therefore, such 
constraints are better suitable for deployment models.

Regards,

The thing is that we discussed dropping quite a lot at/near the ietf in
Philadelphia, and the preferential dropping v reaction times argument.
not that it's impossible to re-visit the decision, but is there new
evidence or argument?

Hi Phil,

you ask for arguments and new evidence that indirect measured rate 
termination (IMRT), which is the only termination method that works well 
with preferential dropping of marked packets, is not sufficient. Just 
see IV.C of
http://www3.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/staff/menth/Publications/papers/Menth08-Sub-9.pdf
Certainly, workarounds can be provided to reduce the likelihood of 
overtermination with IMRT, but they make it even more complex and extend 
its reaction time. Therefore, I do not find it a good idea to rule out 
other termination methods by integrating an unnecessary constraints in 
the marking draft. There are other termination methods that are also 
fast even in the presence of packet loss, simpler to build, work with 
multipath routing, and do not suffer from this source of 
overtermination. Evidence is given in that paper or also in
http://www3.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/staff/menth/Publications/papers/Menth08-PCN-MFT.pdf

Regards,

    Michael

Hi all

I agree with Michael that such constraints are better suitable for 
deployment models.

I'll look at that and see what's new compared with what we discussed
before. Thanks. I probs wont have time to do that until the flight to
Minn.

Remember that such choice adds complexity to the router, the

Hi Phil,

I agree with you that the number of standardized deployment models 
should be kept to a minimum and to simplify deployment. However, the 
complexity of configuration, standardization, and operation rather 
depends on the complexity of the deployment model itself and there are 
large differences. I don't believe that this issue has been understood 
very well so far.

Regards,

    Michael

The marking draft at the moment gives very low complexity of interior
nodes and their configuration, eg parameters are the threshold-rate &
excess-traffic-rate. Complexity of the boundary nodes is something that
we understand less well. I see the deployment model as being about the
boundary node behaviour, where it's appropriate to have a bit of freedom
in terms of >1 different (EXP) behaviours.

I think I agree with Phil. We want to have a PCN system which can work
"out of the box" with the minimum configuration necessary. Any
refinements can then be done principally at boundary nodes where most of
the control mechanism will sit.

Hi Phil and Toby,

the problem I see is the following.

1) Drop preferences do not have anything to do with marking. What you 
have in mind to standardize is the PCN internal node behavior which is 
part of a deployment model (excess and/or threshold marking based on 
which rates, drop preferences).
2) The nice "out of the box" behavior mentioned by Toby can be achieved 
with a knob "deployment model X" which effects the required settings in 
the router.
3) If preferential dropping of marked packets is the only option for 
dropping behavior for PCN internal nodes, the only indirect measured 
rate termination (IMRT) is possible as flow termination mechanism and 
this is very complex. That's already understood. So, there is not much 
room for further refinement.

Regards,

    Michael

{ Hi Phil and Toby,
{ 
{ the problem I see is the following.
{ 
{ 1) Drop preferences do not have anything to do with marking. What you
{ have in mind to standardize is the PCN internal node behavior which is
{ part of a deployment model (excess and/or threshold marking based on
{ which rates, drop preferences).
No. the meter rates are just parameters. Don't care what the edge
behaviours are. The fact that the excess rate is equal to the
PCN-admissible-rate or PCN-supportable-rate is something quite invisible
to the meter!

{ 2) The nice "out of the box" behavior mentioned by Toby can be
achieved
{ with a knob "deployment model X" which effects the required settings
in
{ the router.
(call it a deployment knob seems to be disguising what you're proposing
- which is to have different PCN-interior-router behaviours, ie
configurable whether it does preferential dropping or not of pkts that
are already excess traffic marked. )

{ 3) If preferential dropping of marked packets is the only option for
{ dropping behavior for PCN internal nodes, the only indirect measured
{ rate termination (IMRT) is possible as flow termination mechanism 

no it isnt. The reaction of speed of marked flow termination is slower
but it still works - and if reaction speed is your most important factor
you wouldn't be using marked flow termination (its benefit is in terms
of not having to make measurements of flow rates).
That was my understanding before, and will read your report on the
plane.

and
{ this is very complex. That's already understood. So, there is not much
{ room for further refinement.
{ 
{ Regards,
{ 
{     Michael

A new version of I-D, draft-menth-pcn-psdm-deployment-00.txt has been successfuly submitted by Michael Menth and posted to the IETF repository.

Filename:	 draft-menth-pcn-psdm-deployment
Revision:	 00
Title:		 Deployment Models for PCN-Based Admission Control and Flow Termination Using Packet-Specific Dual Marking (PSDM)
Creation_date:	 2008-10-24
WG ID:		 Independent Submission
Number_of_pages: 20

Abstract:
This document presents different deployment models of PCN-based
admission control (AC) and flow termination (FT) using packet-
specific dual marking (PSDM) for encoding.  Their major is that they
require only a single DSCP for packet marking and that they work
reliably in the presence of ingress-egress aggregates (IEAs) with
only a very small average number of flows.  Moreover, an advanced
model even works with multipath routing.

Steve,

will be asking for WG last call on the 2 WG docs, so time please on
them:

http://tools.ietf.org/wg/pcn/draft-ietf-pcn-baseline-encoding/  [bob]
http://tools.ietf.org/wg/pcn/draft-ietf-pcn-marking-behaviour/  [phil]

All,
so if there are any issues on these docs, please raise them so we can
make sure they're discussed at the meeting & as much as possible is
sorted out prior to the WGLC.

Thanks!
phil/

Just to remind people there were a couple of questions I raised in the
appendices of the baseline encoding. There have been a few responses so
far but these will need to be decided before any WGLC can complete.

Hi,

As of a couple of weeks ago, this became a tsvwg wg item. I posted an 
-00 then, but I've just posted a corrected -01.

I'd appreciate review comments as this is effectively a (minor) 
change to IP forwarding, so there could be weird dependencies I've 
not thought of (I've tried my hardest to make sure there aren't).

The top level questions I'd like to pose for reviewers are:

Q1. I've convinced myself no harm to any existing mechanisms would 
result if I made the proposed new decapsualtion behaviour in Appendix 
C normative for standards track. Do you agree? Have I missed anything?

Q2. I'm planning on splitting this into two docs as it's trying to 
cover two different scopes:
1/ Stand's track: define specific changes to IP in IP tunnelling of ECN
2/ Informational: give guidelines on how to design encapsulation of 
congestion notification by general L2 protocols (e.g. Ethernet etc).

As it stands, a reader in a hurry could mistake guidelines for 
encapsulating IP in ethernet etc as instructions for how to implement 
standard IP in IP tunnelling. Do people agree I should avoid having 
two different scopes in the same doc?

Cheers



Bob

Hi,

I just posted this new draft-briscoe-pcn-3-in-1-encoding-00.txt 
documenting another proposed experimental encoding that Toby 
described in a slide at the Dublin IETF.

I just wrote this because draft-ietf-tsvwg-ecn-tunnel-01.txt recenty 
became a WG item in tswvwg, so there's a chance we could finally fix 
ECN tunnelling behaviour. If we do, then we can have this much 
simpler 3-state PCN encoding in one Diffserv codepoint. I've called 
it the 3-in-1 PCN encoding.

It's just to put a stake in the ground so people can refer to it. We 
won't be pushing for this to become a PCN WG item until the baseline 
encoding has gone thru, and until draft-ietf-tsvwg-ecn-tunnel-01.txt 
has got a bit further in TSVWG.


Bob

Hi Phil,

nice document, I like the separation of functional specification an appendices.

Regards,

Ruediger


Two editorial comments:

Para 2. Specified PCN-marking behaviour
First Section, sentence "The informative Appendixes supplement it." 

Please replace the "it" by the term it refers to ("information on PCN-marking behaviour", 
or something similar, I guess).

Para 2.5 Marking function

There's an empty bullet point and a "." at the end of the section, both should be deleted.

Hi
I updated the doc to take account of Michael's comments (thanks!) and a
few things I spotted. Changes are clarifications etc - no changes in the
MUSTs etc

My intent at the Minneapolis meeting is to ask for WG last call. So any
comments before then appreciated.

Thanks
