That is my fault :-(

The I-D is at revision -03

You still have until Monday next week if you want to make comments.

As my punishment, I have gone through Fabien's email to check which of his coments still apply...

Below my comments on monitoring draft:

Section 3.1:

Example 3: The request must also contain a MONITORING object.

Issue stands.


That was "in addition to" but the text had been clarified, thanks.

Section 3.2:

The format of a PCReq message is as follows:

Must be

The format of a PCMonRep message is as follows:

Issue stands

Fixed.



Section 4.1:

Seems the first sentence is repeated twice.

Fixed in revision -03

Besides it is said that the Monitoring object MAY be included in
PCReq and PCRep so I think it would be good to add the enhanced
PCReq and PCRep BNF description.

Issue stands


Added.

Also in 4.1
s/PCEReq/PCReq/


Fixed.

General comment:

The in-band monitoring request is not fully clear to me.


You are right that this is not clearly explained in the current text.

If there are several path computation requests in the PCReq
which one is targeting?
i.e. Must the PCE return the processing time for each request seperatly
or a single processing time for all requests?

We could decide to have one MONITORING object per request in the bundle case but this does introduce some complexity and is not likely to be that useful. I'd rather propose to keep the current mode with one MONITORING object per PCMonReq or PCReq message. When present the monitoring request applies to all requests of the bundle. Text added in section 3.2.

"
As pointed out in [PCEP] we can have several situations:
 o   Bundle of a set of independent and non-synchronized path
      computation requests,

   o  Bundle of a set of independent and synchronized path computation
       requests (SVEC object defined below required),

   o  Bundle of a set of dependent and synchronized path computation
       requests (SVEC object defined below required).

In the case of a bundle of a set of request, the MONITORING object SHOULD only be present in the first PCReq or PCMonReq message and the monitoring request applies to all the request of the bundle, even in the case of dependent and/or synchronized requests sent using more than one PCReq or
PCMonReq message.




In first case what happens if there is an SVEC object and Path Requests
are spread in multiple PCRep messages. Must the Monitoring object be
repeated?


See above.

If a PCRep contains a Monitoring object, is it possible that
this PCRep contains Path replies not related to the Monitoring
request?

Yes because in the BNF, the <metric-pce-list> is per in the <response>

Thanks for the comments.

Cheers,

JP.



Issue stands.

Happy New Year

Adrian
