Hi Dinesh, et al.,please check the updated version that removed the reference to Hypervisor in the text and Figure 1.Regards, GregOn Wed, Oct 23, 2019 at 10:47 AM Santosh P K <santosh.pallaga...@gmail.com> wrote:Dinesh, Please see my inline comments [SPK]- In section 3, there's a sentence that is: "BFD packets intended for a Hypervisor VTEP MUST NOT..". I recommend getting rid of the word "Hypervisor" ashe logic applies to any VTEP.[SPK] Thanks for comments. We will change this.- You already explained the precedence of the use of 127/8 address in the inner header in MPLS. I have no specific comments in that area. I have only two questions: - Has anybody verified that the use of 127/8 address (and the right MAC) works with existing implementations, including the silicon ones? If this doesn't work there, is it worth adding the possibilit y of another address, one that is owned by the VTEP node? - Do we know if Firewalls stop such VXLAN packets? I ask this because VXLAN has an IP header and I don't know if firewalls stop packets with 127/8 in the inner header. If not, is it worth adding a sentence to say that firewalls allow such packets? The use of a non-127/8 address may alleviate this case as well.[SPK] I think we may need to add the text about firewall as some checks in firewall will be there if they are not already using MPLS OAM which has inner IP header with 127/8 address range.The rest of the draft looks good to me, DineshOn Wed, Oct 23, 2019 at 7:58 AM, Greg Mirsky <gregimir...@gmail.com> wrote:Hi Dinesh,I greatly appreciate your comments.

But, as I understand, the WG is discussing the scope before the WGLC is closed. I believe there are three options:single BFD session between two VTEPs single BFD session per VNI between two VTEPs multiple BFD sessions per VNI between two VTEPsThe current text reflects #2. Is WG accepts this scope? If not, which option WG would accept?Regards, GregOn Tue, Oct 22, 2019 at 2:09 PM Anoop Ghanwani <an...@alumni.duke.edu> wrote:I concur with Joel's assessment with the following clarifications.The current document is already capable of monitoring multiple VNIs between VTEPs.The issue under discussion was how do we use BFD to monitor multiple VAPs that use the same VNI between a pair of VTEPs. The use case for this is not clear to me, as from my understanding, we cannot have a situation with multiple VAPs using the same VNI--there is 1:1 mapping between VAP and VNI.AnoopOn Tue, Oct 22, 2019 at 6:06 AM Joel M. Halpern <j...@joelhalpern.com> wrote:From what I can tell, there are two separate problems.The document we have is a VTEP-VTEP monitoring document. There is noneed for that document to handle the multiple VNI case.If folks want a protocol for doing BFD monitoring of things behind the VTEPs (multiple VNIs), then do that as a separate document. The encoding will be a tenant encoding, and thus sesparate from what isdefined in this document.
