主 题 :Re: [Lsr] LSR WG Adoption Call for "Algorithm Related IGP-Adjacency SID 
Advertisement"


Hi,
 
I don't support the adoption of this document.  
 
It seems this document aims to introduce per Flex-Algo Adj-SID to SR-MPLS, its 
typical use case is to provide protection path with Flex-Algo constraints for 
Adj-SID of a particular Flex-Algo, which is described in the case 3 of section 
3.  
 
However, section 3 and section 5 shows that it also aims to introduce further 
changes to the usage and operation of Flex-Algo, which is to provide resource 
reservation based on Flex-Algo. IMO these changes to Flex-Algo deserves further 
discussion and is not only related to the per Flex-Algo Adj-SID extension.
 
Here are some comments about this change to Flex-Algo:
 
1. Flex-Algo defines the constraints for path computation in a distributed 
manner, it is not for resource reservation.  
 [PSF] Not sure. If you look at it from a device point of view, that's OK. But 
if you look at it from the controller's point of view, the controller can 
centrally compute an SR-TE path in the flex-algo plane, and  maintain the 
resource reservation. This document actually introduce nothing to the 
distributed shortest path computation in the devices, instead, it is used for 
centralized traffic engineering path computation.




2. Reserving resources for each Flex-Algo on a link does not make sense. The 
correlation between Flex-Algo and the network links is based on administrative 
groups (color), and the color of the link may or may not be included in the 
Flex-Algo definition. To follow the color based link correlation, a more 
practical approach would be to use Flex-Algo with L2 bundle as defined in 
draft-zhu-lsr-isis-sr-vtn-flexalgo, which uses color to correlate the L3 link 
and the L2 member link to a Flex-Algo, this avoids the extension for 
per-FlexAlgo resource reservation. 

[PSF] To let each flex-algo monopolize its own link resources (here do you 
think resources per algo is introduced?) may have scalability issues. However, 
it is actually a possible way. Under this way, I really don't understand the 
difference between the draft draft-zhu-lsr-isis-sr-vtn-flexalgo you mentioned 
and draft-peng-lsr-flex-algo-l2bundles. IMO, draft-zhu-lsr-isis-sr-vtn-flexalgo 
repackaged a VTN concept on the basis of draft-peng-lsr-flex-algo-l2bundles. 
Both of them need further discussion in another thread and are not recommended 
to be expanded here.


3. The Flex-Algo link TE attributes are advertised using ASLA, the TE 
attributes are shared by all Flex-Algos which include the link according to the 
FAD, and based on previous discussion, it seems there is no intention to 
introduce per Flex-Algo ID link attributes.
 [PSF] Extend IGP to advertise resources per algorithm is optional, and need 
more discussions. Other ways are possible, e.g, configuration.







Best regards,
Jie
