Peter,
Two other points ..
#1 - Imagine PE is performing control plane restart or ISSU. How ABR
will be able to detect this and instead of keep the potential disruption
local to the area ? Note that data plane of the PE is working all the
time just fine.
if the router supports NSR or NSF such event will be invisible to other
routers, including ABR. Without these mechanisms the neighboring routers
would tear down the adjacency anyway.
#2 - The PULSE expiration timer may be different between various
implementations. It may even be configurable. So you will have a
network where there are many different timers in place.
there will be default mentioned in the spec that all implementations
should honor. Having a knob to tune it is up to the implementation.
Now further
imagine that PE restarting (even without data plane being maintained)
within IBGP holdtime ... less them 180 sec. So remote PEs never see a
BGP path removal of the "affected" next hops. Does the proposal assume
that after removing the path based on PULSE reception the remote PEs
will all by itself recompute best path after PULSE timer expires (no
other control plane event will be seen).
yes, the ingress PE reacting to Pulse would have to re-evaluate the BGP
best paths of affected prefixes after the pulse expiration.
thanks,
Peter
Many thx,
R.
