Hi,

Here are some clarification questions about the flex-algo draft.

1. As described in section 5, in path computation for a flex-algorithm,
the node firstly needs to prune the links not included for this
flex-algorithm, then run SPF or other algorithm within the pruned
topology. If a node supports multiple algorithms, does this mean the
node needs to maintain multiple pruned topologies?

no, there is no need to maintain any additional topologies for Flex-algo functionality.

There is however a need to run multiple SPFs, one for each Flex-algo in which the calculating node participates.


2. If one path computed in algorithm-1 with latency metric and another
path computed in algorithm-2 with bandwidth metric traverse the same
link(s) in the network, can the latency or bandwidth SLA be guaranteed
for the service? Or the path may need to be re-computed and adjusted to
another link to avoid potential performance degradation?

above depends on how you define you Flex-algo 1 and 2 respectively. If you define it in a way that they may share links, they may impact each other. If you define in in a way that they would never share any link, they would not impact each other. You choose the behavior you need - that's the beauty of the Flex-algo solution.

thanks,
Peter

*主题:*[Lsr] LSR Working Group Adoption Poll for Flex Algorithm Drafts

This begins a two-week adoption poll for the following Flex Algorithm
drafts:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-hegdeppsenak-isis-sr-flex-algo/

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ppsenak-ospf-sr-flex-algo/

The adoption poll will end at 12:00 AM EST on May 2^nd , 2018. Please
indicate your support of opposition of the drafts.

Additionally, the authors are amenable to combining the drafts into a
single draft. If you have an opinion, please state that as well.

Thanks,

Acee
