Dear Yaakov, Sharham, et al.,
________________________________
Should CW be mandatory?
1.
* If not, then a PTP-LSP needs to carry only one type of PW (either with
CW or without CW) but not mix so that LSRs can correctly parse the packet
*
* Without PW the job of LSRs becomes more complex to identify the OAM
packets
[YJS] I believe that it is fine to require a CW. RFC 5994 makes the CW
mandatory for Ethernet PWs over MPLS-TP,
I believe that TP will be the main use case.
GIM>> I think that with upcoming introduction of PW VCCV CC Type 4 requirement
to use CW, Section 2 of RFC 5994, can be relaxed. As result use of CW in
MPLS-TP PW can not be expected.
Regards,
Greg
