Re: [bess] Opsdir last call review of draft-ietf-bess-mvpn-msdp-sa-interoperation-05
Gyan- most of these interop questions for MSDP-MVPN are covered in RFC6514. This doc makes no changes to those procedures. This doc simply addresses a fundamental gap that was missed in RFC6514- specifically that MSDP SAs contain 3 pieces of info (source, group, originating RP) and MVPN SAs contain 2 pieces of info (source, group). So everything is fine in the MSDP SA -> MVPN SA direction, but the opposite direction (MVPN SA -> MSDP SA) will be missing this important chunk of info, which MSDP requires to perform peer-RPF. This doc basically sticks the RP address into a BGP EC so RP address can be propagated across the MVPN P domain and transmitted back out when sending MSDP SAs on the other side. Otherwise, RFC6514 rules apply: MSDP accepts/rejects SAs based on it's peer-RPF rules and MVPN uses BGP selection rules to determine the best route.

Re: [bess] bess: draft-zzhang-bess-mvpn-msdp-sa-interoperation
Toerless, Thanks for the comments. After thinking about your feedback on RFC4610 a bit, I'm not sure that case is applicable here. Consider the 2 directions of interworking: 1) MSDP SA/AnycastRP_PIM_Register -> MVPN SA 2) MVPN SA -> MSDP SA/AnycastRP_PIM_Register As I understand, #1 is already covered by RFC6513/6514. #2 is the missing piece that this draft attempts to address. I don't believe #2 will be applicable for RFC4610, as these registers only go to members of the RP set. And the RP set should be configured on all the C-RPs. It wouldn't make much sense to have these registers transit the MVPN domain to go to an AnycastRP not in the configured RP set. Hope this is clear, and let me know if I'm missing anything. -Lenny | -Original Message- | From: BESS [mailto:bess-boun...@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Toerless Eckert | Sent: Monday, November 13, 2017 9:43 PM | To: bess@ietf.org | Cc: mbo...@ietf.org | Subject: [bess] bess: draft-zzhang-bess-mvpn-msdp-sa-interoperation | | Jeffrey presented subject draft in mboned.
