Subject: Re: [Lsr] advertising tunnels in IGP

Hi,

I think that problem here is that two LSPs are two independent unidirectional 
links, rather than one bidirectional. Moreover, LSPs in two directions are not 
pairs (some two LSPs are not associated to each other), and amount of LSPs in 
each direction is not necessary the same. I could assume that some router uses 
Interface IDs for two-way check, but it is not so straightforward when we have 
deal with FAs.

Acee, two-way check could be disabled on the router that is owner of FA, but 
how other routers will distinguish regular P2P from FA?

Good point – all the transit routers need to agree on the interface IDs.

Thanks,
Acee


Thank you.

Best regards,
Alexander Okonnikov

Hi Dirk,

My memory has faded somewhat on Forwarding Adjacency (FA) implementation. 
However, since basic MPLS LSPs are unidirectional, doesn’t the SPF two-way 
check have to be disabled anyway? If so, the Remote Interface ID doesn’t matter.

Thanks,
Acee

Subject: [Lsr] advertising tunnels in IGP

Hi,
In OSPFv2 (and ISIS), we can add (RSVP) tunnels to the topology
by adding them as a unnumbered link in the router lsa.
In OSPFv3, we can only add a link to the router-lsa if the neighbor
interface ID is known.
So it looks like we can only add a tunnel to the OSPFv3 topology,
if we first exchanging hello packets over the tunnel.
Is that correct?
As this is not needed in the other IGPs, do
we have other possibilities?
Thx,
Dirk
