From: Alissa Cooper <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: The IESG <[email protected]>,The IETF Chair <[email protected]>,[email protected],[email protected],[email protected] Response Contacts: The IETF Chair <[email protected]> Technical Contacts: [email protected] Purpose: In response Referenced liaison: Potential RTGWG work related to the disaggregated BNG architecture (https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1615/) Referenced liaison: Response to IETF liaison: ‘Potential RTGWG work related to the disaggregated BNG architecture’ (https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1619/) Referenced liaison: Follow-on response to IETF liaison: ‘Potential RTGWG work related to the disaggregated BNG architecture’ (https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1631/) Referenced liaison: Follow-on to IETF liaison: ‘Potential RTGWG work related to the disaggregated BNG architecture’ (https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1651/) Referenced liaison: Follow-on to IETF liaison: ‘Potential RTGWG work related to the disaggregated BNG architecture’ (https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1660/) Body: The IETF thanks the Broadband Forum for your two liaisons both titled, "Follow-on to IETF liaison: 'Potential RTGWG work related to the disaggregated BNG architecture'" (https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1660/ and https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1651/). We appreciate the Broadband Forum's responsive action on this important topic and your work to keep the IETF apprised of your progress, including sharing the draft document with details of the ongoing work. The two liaisons and draft document were recently discussed within the IESG. Our conclusion from the liaisons and information provided, is that the Broadband Forum's selection of 3GPP's PFCP protocol for use between the DBNG Control Plane (CP) and User Plane (UP) indicates there is no current need for the IETF to develop a protocol to address this use case. Consequently, and in the spirit of cooperation and maintaining the cordial, productive relationship between our two organizations, consideration of all IETF work related to Disaggregated BNG suspended in March will not be resumed. Should the Broadband Forum require assistance from the IETF on this topic going forward, please inform the relevant IETF Area(s) via liaison and we will consider the request accordingly. We look forward to our continued work with the Broadband Form, in particular on the many other topics where our two organizations are cooperating. Sincerely, Alissa Cooper IETF Chair, on behalf of the IESG Attachments: No document has been attached _______________________________________________ rtgwg mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/rtgwg
