Hi Dan,

I am reading the framework draft. Here are some initial comments:

1. In figure 1, the AA controller has connection to both AA client and AA 
server. I think it's not practical in many cases. AAC and AAS, IMHO, are 
usually in different administrative domains. For example, AAC installed on a 
CE, and the AAS installed on the PE. Usually, CE and PE are controlled by 
different domain controllers. It's hard to deploy a super controller for CE and 
PE. Another example is, as you showed, the IoT. It's not practical to let all 
the end devices connect to the AA controller.
Here, what scenario did you consider for this framework?
The suggestion, if I am right, is to have the AA controller only connect to the 
AAS. AAC can pull additional information from the path: AA controller->AAS->AAC.

2. If both AAC and AAS connect to the AA controller, that means the AAC and AAS 
can be synchronized and configured by the management plane. So I guess some of 
the control plane function between AAC and AAS can be reduced.


Regards,
Tianran

Subject: [OPSAWG] a new version of the automatic attachment drafts

Hi,

I have submitted two new Internet-Draft that describe the automatic attachment 
functionality:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-romascanu-opsawg-auto-attach-framework/
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-romascanu-opsawg-auto-attach-lldp/

Principal changes:

- addressing the comments received at IETF 95  we split the generic 
protocol-independent framework that describes the discovery and service mapping 
mechanism in a separate I-D

- we clarified terminology and re-drawn the principal building blocks
- we connected the discovery and authentication mechanism with the MUD proposal

Questions and comments are welcome.

Thanks and Regards,

Dan
