Hello all There is a new draft, draft-xue-opsawg-capwap-alt-tunnel-information
We have discussed the scenario about the alternate tunnel for data packet between a WTP and a AR. Which is already adopted as WG draft. At this stage, only a generic container for the CAPWAP message elements is defined. We anticipated that these message elements (for the different protocols) will be defined in a new document, One message element for each tunneling protocols. draft-xue-opsawg-capwap-alt-tunnel-information is such a specification. Your comments are appreciated a lot Best Regards Li Xue as co-author new version of I-D, draft-xue-opsawg-capwap-alt-tunnel-information-01.txt has been successfully submitted by Li Xue and posted to the IETF repository. Name: draft-xue-opsawg-capwap-alt-tunnel-information Revision: 01 Title: Specification Alternate Tunnel Information for Data Frames in WLAN Document date: 2014-10-24 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 18 URL: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-xue-opsawg-capwap-alt-tunnel-information-01.txt Status: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-xue-opsawg-capwap-alt-tunnel-information/ Htmlized: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-xue-opsawg-capwap-alt-tunnel-information-01 Diff: http://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-xue-opsawg-capwap-alt-tunnel-information-01 Abstract: In IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) architecture, in order to satisfy the scalability requirement, customer data frames are desired to be distributed to an endpoint as Access Router(AR) different from the Access Controller (AC). For tunneling the data frames, there are many known alternate tunnel technologies can be used, such as IP-GRE, IP-in-IP, CAPWAP, L2TP/L2TPv3, etc. To assist a WTP to set up the alternate tunnels for data plane, this document extends the CAPWAP message elements. _______________________________________________ OPSAWG mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/opsawg
