The IESG has received a request from the Link State Routing WG (lsr) to consider the following document: - 'Restart Signaling for IS-IS' <draft-ietf-lsr-isis-rfc5306bis-03.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2019-08-27. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document describes a mechanism for a restarting router to signal to its neighbors that it is restarting, allowing them to reestablish their adjacencies without cycling through the down state, while still correctly initiating database synchronization. This document additionally describes a mechanism for a router to signal its neighbors that it is preparing to initiate a restart while maintaining forwarding plane state. This allows the neighbors to maintain their adjacencies until the router has restarted, but also allows the neighbors to bring the adjacencies down in the event of other topology changes. This document additionally describes a mechanism for a restarting router to determine when it has achieved Link State Protocol Data Unit (LSP) database synchronization with its neighbors and a mechanism to optimize LSP database synchronization, while minimizing transient routing disruption when a router starts. This document obsoletes RFC 5306. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lsr-isis-rfc5306bis/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lsr-isis-rfc5306bis/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ Lsr mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/lsr
