There is a text in the draft: An example where this ambiguity causes a problem is a network in which RSVP-TE is enabled only on a subset of its links. A link attribute is advertised for the purpose of another application (e.g. SRTE) for a link that is not enabled for RSV-TE. As soon as the router that is an RSVP-TE head-end sees the link attribute being advertised for that link, it assumes RSVP-TE is enabled on that link, even though it is not. If such RSVP-TE head-end router tries to setup an RSVP-TE path via that link it will result in the path setup failure. thanks, Peter > > Linda Dunbar > > -----Original Message----- > From: Peter Psenak <ppse...@cisco.com> > Sent: Tuesday, June 9, 2020 10:18 AM > To: Linda Dunbar <linda.dun...@futurewei.com>; Acee Lindem (acee) > <a...@cisco.com>; gen-art@ietf.org > Cc: last-c...@ietf.org; l...@ietf.org; > draft-ietf-ospf-te-link-attr-reuse....@ietf.org > Subject: Re: Genart last call review of > draft-ietf-ospf-te-link-attr-reuse-12 > > Linda, > > On 09/06/2020 16:18, Linda Dunbar wrote: >> Acee and Peter, >> >> Thank you very much for the explanation. >> >> My fundamental question is: What problem will be encountered when a node use >> the TE information on links that RSVP-TE are not enabled? > > The problem is on a node where RSVP is enabled, when it receives the link > attribute for a remote link where RSVP is not enabled. > > An example where this ambiguity causes a problem is a network in > which RSVP-TE is enabled only on a subset of its links.
