This discussion is interesting, but please do not ignore the considerable 
feedback from multiple folks indicating that this advertisement does not belong 
in the IGP at all (regardless of scope).
My opinion on that has not changed.

Thanx.

Subject: Re: [Lsr] I,Scope of FIT Capability: a node or a link?

Hi Greg,

Thanks very much for your interest on both IFIT framework and IFIT capability 
draft. And thanks for your review comments.
Your perspective on both drafts are correct.
On the node or link capability, thanks for your suggestion.
I agree with both you and Jeff. The link capability can make the information 
more clear and accurate for different scenarios.
Why we only considered the node capability? That’s the trade off to reduce 
complexity. We just want to start from simple cases.
If the WG think link capability is necessary, we would like to add link 
capabilities to the update.

Cheers,
Tianran

主题: I,Scope of FIT Capability: a node or a link?

Dear All,
I've read these two drafts with interest. In light of the discussion on the LSR 
WG list, I've been thinking about the scenarios where IFIT is being used.
draft-song-opsawg-ifit-framework defines the overall IFIT architecture that, as 
I understand it, applicable to different methods of collecting and transporting 
telemetry information. draft-wang-lsr-ifit-node-capability-advertisement is 
based on the view that IFIT is a node-wide capability advertised as a binary 
flag for each listed method of collecting telemetry information (Option-Type 
enabled Flag). On-path telemetry collection is performed in the fast path, 
i.e., at a link layer. But a node might include ports with different 
capabilities. How such a heterogeneous, IFIT-wise, node will advertise IFIT 
Capability? To better use available resources for telemetry information 
collection, it might be helpful to advertise IFIT as a capability of a link, 
not of a node?
What do you think?

Regards,
Greg
