Acee, Limited domain also needs IS-IS and OSPF routing protocol (among routers in the limited domain). If not in LSR, where is the right place?

When it is not possible for all the egress edge routers to have a consistent algorithm to compute the aggregated cost or some routers need all the detailed IP Layer metrics for the App Servers for other purposes, the raw IP layer metrics collected A-ER will be distributed. Only the nodes that are capable of utilizing the metrics will process the sub-TLV. So, why would these "capable" nodes have a consistent algorithm for using this complex set of metrics but the A-ERs would not have a consistent algorithm for aggregating the cost? [Linda] Example of the nodes that need the metrics: analytic function (residing on one of the nodes in the LDN); a small number of UPF functions that need the metrics. Since only a subset of routers within an IGP domain need to know those detailed metrics, the draft used your suggested OSPFv2 Extended Prefix Opaque LSA for IPv4 and OSPFv3 Extended LSA with Intra-Area-Prefix TLV to carry the detailed sub-TLVs. For routers that don't care about those metrics, they can ignore them very easily. This just doesn't work. All routers in an IGP domain must use the same algorithm. You can't just draw a picture with an LDN directly connected to a couple A-ERs say that the LDNs can use your metrics to route application specific traffic. The problem could possibly be solved with flex algorithm but it would require a lot more specification. I guess with your simple topology different LDNs could use the metrics differently as well? This would explain why you are not concerned with "consistency"... \ [Linda] The 5G LDN domain is a limited domain per RFC 8799, and forms its own IGP domain. The "consistency is only for the limited nodes that are configured to utilize the IP layer metrics". The IP Layer metrics is for nodes in this limited domain to supplement the forwarding path computation. It worth noting that not all hosts (prefix) attached to an A-ER are ANYCAST servers that need network optimization. An A-ER only needs to advertise the App-Metrics for the ANYCAST addresses that match with the configured ACLs. Note that routes are based on IP prefixes and not applications while the draft uses these two interchangeably. [Linda] the Applications that need special consideration are identified by its IP address. Thanks, Acee Any other concerns?

If you can't rely on the A-ERs to consistently calculate an aggregated metric, how can you rely on all the routers in the IGP routing domain to use complex set of metrics to reach the least-loaded app server? Do we really want to talk about this again?
