Loa: <WG chair hat on>
Thank you for your note. The rudimentary analysis was incorrect. The I2RS RIB Information Model (RIB IM) and RIB Data Model (RIB DM) is a pair of documents that explain the I2RS RIB. The authors of these models will need to improve the text to indicate tunnels are not being created. Since RIB IM has passed WG LC, anyone wishes to propose that the RIB IM/DM create tunnels should send me an indication they wish to create such a proposal by 10/9/2015. Otherwise, we will start the WG LC the RIB IM and RIB DM have improved their text to indicate tunnels are not being created, only used). Sue Details: The RIB Info Model(IM)/RIB Data Model(DM) is a pair of documents. My understanding of the WG Agreement (early 2015) is that we would keep the RIM IM in sync with the for the first revision of the I2RS RIB. (Unless the AD for I2RS (Alia) provides me with the feedback these documents should merge). The actions in the I2RS RIB are add/delete RIB, add/delete/update route, and add/delete nexthop. The I2RS RIB does not provide an add/delete tunnel. My understanding of the WG agreement which is distilled in the draft-ietf-i2rs-rib-info-model-08.txt, is that the I2RS data models are not creating tunnels. The I2RS data models are referring to tunnels which are created by other "hard" or "soft" provisioning. My recollection is that the WG felt other WG groups (such as rtgwg and MPLS) where charter to provision these models. This is similar to the interface yang creation. Interface configuration is created by the interfaces yang module. <WG Chair hat off> -----Original Message----- From: i2rs [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Loa Andersson Sent: Thursday, December 03, 2015 11:34 AM To: Acee Lindem (acee); Alia Atlas Cc: Jeffrey Haas; [email protected]; Susan Hares; Jeff Tantsura Subject: Re: [i2rs] FW: I-D Action: draft-ietf-i2rs-rib-data-model-04.txt Folks, On 2015-11-25 01:19, Acee Lindem (acee) wrote: <snip> There is a non-converged discussion going on on draft-ietf-i2rs- rib-data-model, the key statement seems to be: > > I believe the intention of the model is clearly to dynamically create > the tunnels. > <snip> I think that was is going on is (something like) this: The authors intend to create a model that can be used to add, remove and find information about the routes in the RIB (read series of RIBs). Acee see is that adding this type of information to the RIB may very well be used create (add) tunnels. After all the information manipulated in both cases are very much the same. If this very rudimentary analysis is correct, it should not be impossible to add text to the document explaining what the intention is. On one had I don't think it is motivated to not allow what the model is intended for, on the other hand it should be perfectly what the intention is (and what is is not). /Loa _______________________________________________ i2rs mailing list <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] <https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/i2rs> https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/i2rs
