Hi Tricci:

      Thank you for reminding us such an important aspect, the 
compatibility is a very important feature for the DMM of course. If the 
DMM supports the compatibility, it will help the DMM to be deployed in the 
real world. So ,basically, I agree the "SHOULD" should be change to 
"SHALL".

      Thanks for your suggestion.

Luowen

Re: [DMM] draft requirement REQ-4: compatibility






Dear Anthony and LuoWen, 

Sorry for jumping in late to this discussion.  If I have missed some prior 
discussion and repeat the same question, please forgive me. 

I agree with Anthony's view that, "“Other mobility protocols” can only 
refer to the existing mobility protocols that are already deployed. It 
cannot refer to “future protocols” or “any protocol in the literature 
which has not been deployed in the same environment in which dmm is being 
deployed.  " 

However, when I refer to the current writing of the REQ#4: 
>>>>> 
REQ4:  Compatibility 
  
The DMM solution SHOULD be able to work between trusted administrative 
domains when allowed by the security measures deployed between these 
domains.  Furthermore, the DMM solution SHOULD preserve backwards 
compatibility with existing network deployment and end hosts.  For 
example, depending on the environment in which dmm is deployed, the dmm 
solutions may need to be compatible with other existing mobility protocols 
that are deployed in that environment or may need to be interoperable with 
the network or the mobile hosts/routers that do not support the dmm 
enabling protocol. 
  
Motivation: The motivation of this requirement is to allow inter-domain 
operation if desired and to preserve backwards compatibility so that the 
existing networks and hosts are not affected and do not break. 
>>>>> 

First question to ask is that, why the backward compatibility with 
existing network deployment and end hosts is "optional", and not 
"mandatory"?  Wouldn't the compatibility with the existing deployment be 
the "fundamental" requirement?  Hence, the "SHOULD" needs to be changed to 
"SHALL". 

Secondly, IMHO, compatibility has two aspects: 
(1) backward compatible with existing deployment that has been discussed 
above, but also 
(2) no impact with the mobile host but still able to enable the DMM 
solution at the network 

I don't believe that we are proposing the DMM solution requirement that 
must require the mobile node's support, correct? 

If we can agree on these two above fundamental sentiment, then, I would 
like to suggest a friendly amendment to REQ4 as follows: 
>>>>> 
REQ4:  Compatibility 
  
The DMM solution SHOULD be able to work between trusted administrative 
domains when allowed by the security measures deployed between these 
domains.  Furthermore, the DMM solution SHALL preserve backwards 
compatibility with existing network deployment and end hosts.  For 
example, depending on the environment in which dmm is deployed, the dmm 
solutions SHALL BE compatible with other existing mobility protocols that 
are deployed in that environment or SHOULD BE interoperable with the 
network or the mobile hosts/routers that do not support the dmm enabling 
protocol. In addition, it SHOULD BE feasible to enable DMM network 
solution without the necessity to impact the existing mobile hosts. 
  
Motivation: The motivation of this requirement is to allow inter-domain 
operation if desired and to preserve backwards compatibility so that the 
existing networks and hosts are not affected and do not break. 
>>>>> 

Hoping that you can accept these changes.  Thanks in advance. 
Tricci

Re: [DMM] draft requirement REQ-4: compatibility








Luowen, 
  
I understand that we earlier had a list of at least 3 requirements bundled 
inside this REQ-4. We are now adding a 4th and possibly 5th into this list 
regarding inter-domain. So I try to simplify 3 of them by examining the 
end result: whether existing network deployment and end hosts will break. 
  
What the dmm solution needs to do will then depend on the environment in 
which it is deployed. 
  
“Other mobility protocols” can only refer to the existing mobility 
protocols that are already deployed. It cannot refer to “future protocols
” or “any protocol in the literature which has not been deployed in the 
same environment in which dmm is being deployed. 
  
If you want to be more specific, I suggest to append an explanatory 
sentence to explain the requirement rather than adding more requirements 
to the list.

Hi Antony, 

Yes, I agree, the DMM solution shall be compatibile with the exsiting 
network deployments. But only say "Existing network deployment and end 
hosts also SHOULD NOT break" or "the DMM solution SHOULD preserve 
backwards compatibility with existing network deployment and end hosts" 
may not be very specific. 

how about 

The DMM solution SHOULD enable working between trusted administrative 
domains when allowed by the security measures deployed between these 
domains. Furthermore, the DMM solution SHOULD preserve backwards 
compatibility with existing network deployment and end hosts that do not 
support the DMM enabling protocol. 

And put those description such as  "The DMM solutions SHALL support 
existing network deployment with IPv6 (e.g. existing IPv6 address 
assignment), be compatible with other mobility protocols, and be 
interoperable with the network or the mobile hosts/routers that do not 
support the DMM enabling protocol so that the existing network deployments 
and end hosts are not broken." into the motivation, e.g 

Motivation: The motivation of this requirement is to ensure the DMM 
solutions to support existing network deployment with IPv6 (e.g. existing 
IPv6 address assignment), to be compatible with other mobility protocols, 
and to be interoperable with the network or the mobile hosts/routers that 
do not support the DMM enabling protocol, so that the existing network 
deployments and end hosts are not broken. 

Does it make sense?

Luo, 
 
I think “existing network deployments which are not DMM enablded” are 
included in “existing network deployments. 
 
The end result is the compatibility with existing network deployment and 
end hosts. So whatever the dmm solution needs to do to ensure such 
compatibility. Do you agree?

Hi Anthony: 

It seems the REQ-4 is changed a lot. Interworking between trusted 
administrative domains is good to me, and the interworking with existing 
network deployments which are not DMM enablded is also very important. I 
believe we have already have consistency about this.  So, how about 
mergering this two parts as following ? 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 

The DMM solutions SHALL support existing network deployment with IPv6 
(e.g. existing IPv6 address assignment), be compatible with other mobility 
protocols, and be interoperable with the network or the mobile 
hosts/routers that do not support the DMM enabling protocol so that the 
existing network deployments and end hosts are not broken. Furthermore, 
the DMM solution MUST NOT break when being deployed between trusted 
administrative domains and SHOULD allow inter-working with the security 
measures deployed between these domains. 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 


Hope this make sense.

Replacing REQ-4 with the following:

REQ-4: compatibility
The DMM solution MUST NOT break when being deployed between trusted 
administrative domains and SHOULD allow inter-working with the security 
measures deployed between these domains. Existing network deployment and 
end hosts also SHOULD NOT break.

An attempt to clean up the text for REQ-4:

REQ-4: compatibility 
The DMM solutions SHALL support existing network deployment with IPv6 
(e.g. existing IPv6 address assignment), be compatible with other mobility 
protocols, and be interoperable with the network or the mobile 
hosts/routers that do not support the DMM enabling protocol so that the 
existing network deployments and end hosts are not broken.
REQ-4M (Motivation for REQ-4)
Motivation: The motivation of this requirement is not to break existing 
network deployments and end hosts. 
OTHER related problem
O-PS3: Complicated deployment with too many variants and extensions of MIP
Deployment is complicated with many variants and extensions of MIP. When 
introducing new functions which may add to the complicity, existing 
solutions are more vulnerable to break.

I think that's a reasonable simplification.  We need a strategy for
backwards compatibility.
