Naiming,

 

That’s would be the goal, not to boil the ocean (again)the constrain part would 
be “improvements on existing protocols”, since we are in LSR, perhaps further 
scoped to ISIS/OSPF.

 

Cheers,

Jeff

I do think to solve all the data centers (massive or small) requirement, 

this discussion is very useful. If we can list all the requirements and see

what technical approaches we can do to achieve them.

 

But incremental improvements on existing protocols is useful also. They may not

solve the complete set of “requirements”, but they do help data center

and also non-data center deployments to improve their operations.

 

I would think this group can proceed with both approaches.

 

Regards,

- Naiming

In the discussions which led to the creation of LSVR and RIFT WGs, considerable 
interest was expressed in working on enhancements to existing Link State 
protocols. You can peruse the dcrouting mailing list archives.

 

https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/dcrouting/

 

It is rather befuddling to me that the IETF seems to have decided to move 
forward on two new protocols (no objection from me) but seems to feel there is 
insufficient reason to move forward on proposals to extend existing IGPs.

I think the suggestion that we need to write (yet another)  requirements 
document before doing so is a recipe for delay – not for progress.

 

Multiple drafts have been presented over the course of the past two years and 
discussed on the list as well.

In the case of two of the drafts:

 

draft-shen-isis-spine-leaf-ext

draft-li-dynamic-flooding

 

WG adoption was requested in Montreal.

 

Please explain why we cannot proceed with “business as usual” as regards these 
drafts.

+1 Tony

 

We could start with a document, similar to dc-routing requirements one we did 
in RTGWG before chartering RIFT and LSVR.

Would help to disambiguate requirements from claims and have apple to apple 
comparison.

Doing it on github was a good experience.

 

Regards,

Jeff

At IETF 102, there was no dearth of flooding reduction proposals.  In fact, we 
have so many proposals that there wasn’t agree as how to move forward and we 
agreed to discuss on the list. This Email is to initiate that discussion (which 
I intend to participate in but as a WG member). 

 

 

Hi Acee,

 

Perhaps a useful starting point of the discussion is to talk about 
requirements.  There seem to many different perceptions.

 

Regards,

Tony
