I try to parse that and am still not clear what you both are saying
1. It seems you both saying that RFC3630 is expected now to be used on unnumbered only (for which I find no indication) or are you claiming it's only used that way? Based on which implementation or document? What is "repurposing"? RFC3630 is a published Standards track RFC and I don't know what "re-purposing" standards RFCs means? 2. Or are you saying that the new draft will be restricted to unnumbered only? In which case I expect a new version of draft to discuss further and agree taht the backwards compat section colllapses to "unnumbered link" considerations only ... ? --- tony On Sat, 6 May 2017 18:15:21 +0000, "Les Ginsberg (ginsberg)" wrote: Tony - It is known that link identifiers are useful even in cases of numbered links e.g. some telemetry applications prefer to use link identifiers to identify all links (numbered and unnumbered).

My understanding is that the repurposing of link-local OSPF TE LSAs is only done on unnumbered links so that would be the main focus of the backward compatibility discussion.

I try to read what you say carefully but please clarify: there's nothing in rfc5613 that prevents LLC on any link so do you mean, you suggest to use this TLV on unnumbered links _only_? Or do you suggest that RFC3630 implies somehow that LS TE LSAs are used on unnumbered links _only_? If so, I don't see anything in the RFC to this effect ... --- tony On Fri, 5 May 2017 15:14:30 +0000, "Acee Lindem (acee)" wrote: Hi Tony, The authors will cover this in the next revision. Based on discussions, the usage of link-scoped TE LSAs is limited to unnumbered point-to-point links. If this is the case, the backward compatibility is much simpler than the other discussions we've been having.

A conditional against here ... I am fine with adoption if I see a version that spells the detailed behavior and especially interactions between RFC4302 and this draft in a detailed section, i.e. both on, RFC4302 gets configured/unconfigured, are the LLS extensions advertised on every hello or just until a specific state (like ISIS padding thingies) and so on ... I'd rather have this now than a LC discussion ... The idea is deceptively simple but it is a redundant mechanism and those always end causing inter-op problems unless cleanly spelled out ... --- tony Links: ------ [1] mailto:[email protected] [2] mailto:[email protected] [3] mailto:[email protected] [4] mailto:[email protected] [5] mailto:[email protected] [6] mailto:[email protected] [7] mailto:[email protected]
