Hi Yingzhen,Les and WG,




Thank you. The first version will be updated soon with the name 
draft-ietf-lsr-ospf-unreachable-link since the first version name needs to be 
inherited.


The proposed name will be reflected in later versions. Thank you Les for your 
good suggestion. It is more apt.


Any comments are always welcome. 





Best Regards,


Liyan

Or – if the authors want to consider my comments – replace “unreachable” in the 
name with something more apt – perhaps:


 


“lsr-ospf-max-link-metric”


 


😊

Hi all,


 


The adoption call has ended.



 


There is strong consensus, and all the authors and contributors have replied to 
the IPR call thread, so this draft is now adopted. 



 


Authors, please upload a WG version with name 
draft-ietf-lsr-ospf-unreachable-link when the datatracker is open.



 


Please continue the discussion to further refine the draft.



 


Thanks,



Yingzhen

All, 


 


With respect to the naming of the OSPF constants, I think we should go with: 



 


     LSLinkInfinity                    - 0xffff 



     MaxReachableLinkMetric - 0xfffe



 


LSLinkInfinity is analogous to LSInfinity. 


 


[Jie]  This is OK to me. 


 


 



 


See inline.

Hi Gyan and Jie,


I am not entirely sure if the suggestions from Ketan in previous email can 
address these two concerns. If not fully addressed, please feel free to let us 
know. 


Overall, this feature is applicable to all FAs, including FA0. The next version 
will further elaborate on the relationships between new features and FAs, as 
well as optimize the use-case descriptions and corresponding name to  reflect 
"Unreachable"  in a way that is easier to understand.


Appreciate everyone39s discussion. It is very helpful.


 


 


[Jie] Thanks, this aligns with my understanding: it applies to all SPF  
computations (including Flexible Algorithms) which make use of IGP metric. And  
it would be good to replace unreachable with some more accurate description. 


 


[Liyan]Thanks.I am also considering this matter and hope to get your advice. 
Would it be better to use "Infinity Link" instead of " Unreachable Link" for 
both the content and the title of the draft? 


 


Best Regards,


Liyan

Hi Jie

Hi Yingzhen, 


 


I’ve read the latest version of this document and support its adoption.  It is 
a useful  feature in general to exclude some of the links  from SPF  
computation. 


 


I also have some comments for the authors to consider, they can be solved after 
the adoption. 


 


1.       I’m not sure the purpose is to advertise an unreachable link in OSPF, 
from the use cases in the draft, the link is still reachable and  can be used 
for some services,  just it needs be excluded from normal  SPF calculation. If 
this is correct, it is better the title of the draft and the name of the new 
capability Flag need to be updated to reflect this. 




 


LSLinkInfinity would always indicate the link is unreachable. However, there is 
no real need to advertise it for other services since in these cases the 
advertisement is optional. 



 


[Jie] IMO once LSLinkInfinity is advertised for a link, it would impact all 
services which  rely on SPF computation based on IGP metric.  Regarding “for  
other services the advertisement is optional”, do you mean other services would 
rely on metric-types other than IGP metric? This is true for services which use 
TE paths, while there maybe issue with  Flex Algorithm (as discussed below).


 


 Gyan> I agree with you and that is as well stated in the draft that 
MaxLinkMetric (0xFFFF) does not exclude the link from SPF and thus  requires RI 
LSA with capability bit set for MaxLinkMetric  (0xFFFF) for link to be excluded 
from SPF. Maybe “OSPF RI Capability LSA”.




 


I think the capability should be LSLinkInfinity support. 



 


[Jie] This is OK. 



 


 


2.       In the Flex-Algo use case, if the metric of a link is set to 
MaxLinkMetric (0xFFFF) to exclude it from normal SPF computation, while a  
Flex-Algo is defined to  use the same metric type for path calculation,  will 
it cause the link also be excluded from the Flex-Algo path computation? If not, 
will metric value 0xFFFF be used in the Flex-Algo computation? In other word, 
the interaction between  this new feature and  Flex-Algo needs to be further 
elaborated. 


    Gyan>  I agree that the RI LSA capability flag for MaxLinkMetric (0xFFFF) 
is applicable  to base Algo 0 and any Algo.  However AFAIK  you would have to 
explicitly set the RI flag the particular Algo.  The use case described in this 
draft is when you are using flex algo for network slicing meaning you have both 
algo 0 and 128 on the same links and  not a separate sub topology and in that  
case in order to avoid best effort traffic from going over the same link used 
for algo 128  you would need to use this RI capability flag.  This concept we 
have talked about comes into play of degree of network slicing  and isolation 
to meet SLO SLE  requirements.








 


LSLinkInfinity would exclude the link from a flex algorithm as well. However, 
the correct way to exclude it by omitting the advertisement. 


 


[Jie] Agree that if a Flex Algorithm uses IGP metric as its metric type, 
LSLinkInfinity  would impact the Flex-Algo computation as well. While a 
Flex-Algo  which uses other metric-types would not be impacted. Is that what 
you mean by “omitting the advertisement”?


 


[Liyan]Yes, I think both of you have the same ideas which alligns with the 
draft. If misunderstanding, please Acee correct me.  


 


Best regards,


Jie

Acee
