Ali and bess WG:
IDR has 3 proposals for IPsec tunnels that impact draft-ietf-idr-tunnel-encaps-17.txt. As an IDR co-chair/shepherd, I have been discussing these three drafts (Ali and two other authors sets) to try to find out if we can have one general solutions. The discussion has been very fruitful to point up BGP issues of interoperability, security, privacy, manageability, and scaling. For example, there is a lack of a clear specification between RFC6514 (PMSI tunnel attribute) and the tunnel-encaps draft that specifies how these drafts interoperate. I suspect the bess and idr chairs will need to discuss if tunnel-encaps has to address this point. I wrote up my ideas in draft-hares-idr-bgp-ipsec-analysis-00.txt so the authors could tell me what I misunderstood. You'll find this draft stops half way. I have the rest of the draft written, but I wanted feedback from all the author teams before sending it out. After hearing some of the details from the authors, I would like to sponsor an IDR interim so we could discuss these issues at length. If you think this is a good idea, please let me know. One other thing. unfortunately, I scheduled a set of meetings for EDT time after IETF meetings this week. Your next response will occur from 11-16 UTC on Wednesday. Cheerily, Sue
