​Yup -- somehow I'd *completely* missed the intent / text explaining that.
Deborah pointed it out on the call and I cleared my DISCUSS. ​

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad idea in
the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair of
pants.

[Pce] I-D Action: draft-ietf-pce-lsp-setup-type-10.txt

2018-05-04 Thread internet-drafts

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Path Computation Element WG of the IETF.

Title   : Conveying path setup type in PCEP messages
Authors : Siva Sivabalan
  Jeff Tantsura
  Ina Minei
  Robert Varga
  Jon Hardwick
Filename: draft-ietf-pce-lsp-setup-type-10.txt
Pages   : 12
Date: 2018-05-04

Abstract:
   A Path Computation Element (PCE) can compute Traffic Engineering (TE)
   paths through a network that are subject to various constraints.
   Currently, TE paths are Label Switched Paths (LSPs) which are set up
   using the RSVP-TE signaling protocol.  However, other TE path setup
   methods are possible within the PCE architecture.  This document
   proposes an extension to the PCE communication protocol (PCEP) to
   allow support for different path setup methods over a given PCEP
   session.

Hi Warren, Ignas,

Sorry for the slow reply.  I think Deborah already explained our intent on the 
telechat.  As this document does not actually define any new path setup types 
(just a mechanism to allow multiple path setup types) we can really only make 
generalized statements about the sorts of issues that should be considered if a 
particular new setup type is introduced.  We chose to include a list of 
questions that anyone adding a new path setup type would need to answer.

To clarify this intent, I have made the following change.

OLD
   This document generalises PCEP to allow path setup methods other than
   RSVP-TE to be used by the network.  It is possible that, in a given
   network, multiple path setup methods will be used.  It is also
   possible that not all devices will support the same set of path setup
   methods.  Managing networks that combine multiple path setup methods
   may therefore raise some challenges from a configuration and
   observability point of view.

   Each document that introduces a new path setup type to PCEP must
   include a manageability section.  The manageability section must
   explain how operators can manage PCEP with the new path setup type.
   It must address the following questions, which are generally
   applicable when working with multiple path setup types in PCEP.

NEW
   This document generalises PCEP to allow path setup methods other than
   RSVP-TE to be used by the network (but does not define any new path
   setup types, besides RSVP-TE).  It is possible that, in a given
   network, multiple path setup methods will be used.  It is also
   possible that not all devices will support the same set of path setup
   methods.  Managing networks that combine multiple path setup methods
   may therefore raise some challenges from a configuration and
   observability point of view.

   Each document that defines a new Path Setup Type in the Path Setup
   Type Registry (Section 8.2) must include a manageability section.
   The manageability section must explain how operators can manage PCEP
   with the new path setup type.  It must address the following
   questions, which are generally applicable when working with multiple
   path setup types in PCEP.

END

Best regards
Jon

Ignas balloted NoObj; I'll be the baddie.

Section 6.  Manageability Considerations says:
---
Each document that introduces a new path setup type to PCEP must
   include a manageability section.  The manageability section must
   explain how operators can manage PCEP with the new path setup type.
   It must address the following questions, which are generally
   applicable when working with multiple path setup types in PCEP.

   o  What are the criteria for when devices will use the new path setup
  type in PCEP, and how can the operator control this?

   o  How can the network be migrated to the new path setup type, and
  are there any backwards compatibility issues that operators need
  to be aware of?

   o  Are paths set up using the new path setup type intended to coexist
  with other paths over the long term and, if so, how is this
  situation managed with PCEP?


So, I see lots of open questions, but no answers to any of these
