Hi, Peter:
The differences between our proposals are just how to indicate the PUA/UPA
information along with the advertised prefixes. All other mechanisms/procedures
are the same, right?
Then one simple way for the convergence is just the encoding: Let the
unreachable prefixes associated with “prefix originator”(with the value set to
NULL”) and also set its metrics to MAX-Value.
there is no need to introduce any new encoding. That the whole point of
the UPA draft. We use existing mechanism.
thanks,

Other parts can follow the current PUA drafts, which we have discussed
intensively in the list and I think you have no any objections.
Anyway, to make the UPA mechanism take effect, you will also require the router
be upgraded. And the “Max-Value” solution doesn’t necessarily indicate the
prefix is lost. We should announce such information explicitly.
We can also discuss other convergence solutions.

Hi Aijun,
thanks for your interest in the UPA draft.
I'm not sure what exactly is there in your draft that you would like to merge.
The mechanism that we use in the UPA draft is an existing mechanism and it
avoids the the problems that have been discussed in context of your draft in
the past completely.
thanks,
Peter

Hi, Authors of UPA(Unreachable Prefixes Announcement) draft:
After reading your newly proposed draft
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ppsenak-lsr-igp-ureach-prefix-announce/
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ppsenak-lsr-igp-ureach-prefix-announce/>, we
found that the overall aim and procedures in your draft are getting closer again to the
already intensely discussed PUA/PUAM
solutions(https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-wang-lsr-prefix-unreachable-annoucement-09
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-wang-lsr-prefix-unreachable-annoucement-09>).
Regardless to the difference of the two proposals, here we propose to converge
the solutions, based on the PUA/PUAM draft, as we all know the WG has discussed
PUA/PUAM draft about two years, there is no reason to discuss again the similar
procedures and the later work should respect the former’s efforts.
If you agree, we can discuss the details of convergence offline. If you don’t
agree, we can discuss these solutions openly within the WG list.
