For those of you that are not subscribed to the mpls-list.
- the mpls wg has started the initial steps for working group adoption,
there are three steps
-- mpls-rt review (what you see below is the follow-up discussion on
that review)
-- IPR poll, will be sent out soon
-- working group adoption poll (wgap), that poll will be copied to
the idr and bess. Hopefully we can that shortly.
I'm sending this to mpls, idr and bess working group, since it has
to do where things should be documented.

I have only one comment regarding to Section 5. IMHO, although it's
informational, the description about the relationship between SAFI-1
and SAFI-4 routes should not belong to this document, it's a more
common description that is not specific to this label binding process.
I'd suggest to remove this section if there is no any other reasons.
Differing interpretations about the relationship between SAFI-1 and
SAFI-4 are a very common source of interoperability problems among
implementations of different vendors. Thus I think it is very useful to
document this issue and to call attention to some of the differing
interpretations. I think this document is an appropriate place for this
information; even though this information is not about label binding, it
is about the semantics of SAFI-4.
I agree that this needs to be documented! I can accept that it is done
in draft-rosen-mpls-rfc3107bis, but I would like to have all three wg's
agree to this. I see a few alternatives
- we could document this is in draft-rosen-mpls-rfc3107bis; or
- we could write a separate document
- we could find another document where this has a better fit than in
draft-rosen-mpls-rfc3107bis
- any other suggestion
Let us know if you have an opinion.
