Hi Brian,
Thanks for your reply, allowing me to think about my draft more clearly.
Please see inlines with [yj]. Thanks.
Best Regards

and it will not be sent very frequently. I will add this part in the new
version.

Do you mean to *all* ASAs? In that case you can use a flood again. Of course, a
receiver can simply ignore a flood. If that is not sutiable, please explain the
requirement a bit more.
[yj] According to our previous discussion, I think the problem in our draft is
that ASAs need to communicate with another domain ASA instead of selectively
sending message to some ASA nodes in the domain. So we should send to *all ASAs
in the domain. In that case reuse a GRASP flood message is OK. But I think how
the different domain ASAs communicate with other is not suitable for discuss in
draft-dang-anima-network-service-auto-deployment.

message spreading to other domains?
We did not specify what happens if two separate ACPs overlap physically. What
happens then is undefined. Normally a flood will never reach an ASA in a
different domain, because the ACP only includes nodes that have correctly
authenticated themselves to the current domain.
If ASAs need to communicate with another domain, it would need to be like the
attached diagram, possibly with an extra (virtual?) domain to separate the two
security environments. The boundary ASAs would have two halves, one in each
domain. Obviously, there would be security issues there.
[yj] I think use an extra(virtual) domain like the attached diagram is a good
idea to solve the problem about different domain ASAs communication. But as you
say, there are some security issues we should discuss in more detail. So do you
know which draft can involves this problem?
Regards
Brian
