Hi,

I think that BSID is a concept that applies equally well to RSVP-TE and SR-TE. 
There are many use-cases for RSVP tunnels having a BSID and we definitely DO 
NOT want to limit it to just SR-TE.

Thanks,
Mike.

Hi Siva

I believe  I was missing the signaling aspect for the PCE to build the 
contiguous end to end LSP and that requires BSID to be signaled over RSVP-TE 
which is although agnostic to data plane BSID component binding the candidate 
path to the forwarding plane, is a requirement for end to end control plane 
signaling for the single LSP end to end path instantiation.

The BSID signaling concept is somewhat analogous concept to LDP tunneling over 
RSVP-TE tunnel stitching for an end to end LSP instantiation.

Thank you Siva for the clarification.

Hi Gyan,

This ID is all about signaling BSID for RSVP-TE tunnels and SR policies via 
PCEP.

Please do not confuse signaling aspects with how BSID is used.

There is no change required in the ID.

Thanks,
Siva

After further review with Siva the use case is for connecting SR islands over 
RSVP-TE core.

So this is for stitching SR-TE on the edge islands binding SID to core RSVP-TE 
tunnel.

One major gap  of RSVP-TE is the VRF / VPN coloring capability that in order to 
achieve per VRF coloring mapping of VRF to a discrete TE tunnel requires a 
separate loopback and static routes to egress PE so it does not scale.  So for 
as many RSVP mapped tunnels that exist you need that many loopbacks and static 
routes for the next hop rewrite to the RSVP tunnel next hop.

So this Major gap is filled with SR VRF and app flow coloring capability that 
with SR-TE Policy BSID bound to candidate path can provide the scalability per 
VRF coloring.

So at the edges you may have many 100s of colored RSVP tunnels but as the core 
does not scale you can not provide a 1-1 mapping of SR-TE tunnel to RSVP 
tunnel.  So you would have many to 1 mappings of SR-TE tunnels to single or 
aggregate.

So in my mind to only way the BSID would come into play is if you could do a 
1-1 mapping of SR-TE tunnel to RSVP tunnel.  Technically that is not possible.

For PCE to compute end to end path in this scenario does RSVP-TE require the 
BSID for the stitching even if a many SR-TE colors to single RSVP-TE tunnel 
mapping. I would not think so.

If we think that for PCE to build the end to end path even for the end to end 
path in this scenario requires BSID binding to the RSVP-TE single path to make 
contiguous end to end then I agree technically we do need to make this 
inclusive of RSVP-TE.

I think we need to clear this up and if this use case is really not feasible 
then we should remove any mention of BSID use with RSVP-TE tunnel.

Kind Regards

Hi Gyan,

BSID can be allocated for RSVP-TE as well, and yes, there are use-cases for 
that. The proposed PCEP extension is equally applicable to both SR-TE and 
RSVP-TE.

Thanks,
Siva

I support WG LC advancement of this draft for publication.

I see there are a lot of comments related to a mix of verbiage related to MPLS 
label binding and Binding label SID confusion.

Few comments.

The draft title states “carrying binding label/sid in PCE based networks”

In the abstract it states it is possible to associate a BSID with a RSVP 
signaled path.

I don’t recall any RSVP extension to support concept of BSID usage on an active 
Candidate Path option ERO.  Can you refer me to the RFC that states how BSID is 
used with RSVP TE.

For more clarity with this draft can we replace

s/TE/s/SR as TE nomenclature refers to RSVP-TE and does add confusion where SR 
is SR.  When mentioned traffic engineered path please spell out or say SR path 
for clarity.

Also the “TE-PATH-BINDING TLV” can we change to “SR-PATH-BINDING TLV”.

The word “binding” is very confusing as it’s used interchangeably with label 
binding and binding SID.

So I am thinking a more appropriate name for the TLV would be “SR-TE-BSID TLV”. 
 Makes it clear and concise the TLV is for SR-TE.

Kind Regards

Gyan

Hi Cheng,

Thanks for clarifying the text in the document. Diff content looks good to me, 
much clearer. Consider my comments resolved.

Thanks!

(and Code Point Allocation)

    Hi all,

    Overall Support WGLC. It's an important document in the world of SRTE, and 
the document goes to good lengths to describe the various scenarios and 
combinations.

    Only one question I have for the authors and WG, for any further 
clarification on the following text (section 4):


      The absence of TE-PATH-BINDING TLV in PCUpd message
       means that the PCE does not specify a binding value in which case the
       binding value allocation is governed by the PCC's local policy.


    I find the "governed by PCC local policy" a bit too vague and could lead to 
implementation interop differences. Assuming a PCInitiated LSP that been 
established with a BSID: If the PCE wants to withdraw the binding SID , I 
interpret the document as the PCE would send a PCUpdate without the TLV, but 
the behaviour is now up to PCC as per that text. if the PCC local 
policy/implementation is to do nothing, how can the PCE explicitly force-remove 
the BSID with a PCUpdate? In a similar manner, If the PCE does not want to 
change the value but PCC local policy is to treat missing TLV as remove, then 
PCE should always send the TLV in every PCUpdate (which I'm okay with) which is 
not stated, otherwise the local policy/implementation may interpret it as a 
removal compared to an implementation which may interpret it as being okay to 
not send the TLV on every PCUpdate since there was "no change".

    In summary: might need a bit of a wording to further detail "PCE wishes to 
withdraw" case.

    [Cheng] You are correct, there was some issues with multiple 
TE-PATH-BINDING TLV. This has been updated. See the diff.

    The above text has been updated to -

       The absence of TE-PATH-BINDING TLV in PCUpd message means that the
       PCE does not specify a binding value in which case any previous
       allocated binding values are withdraw.

    Further, the PCC's local policy aspect has been seperated out as -

       In the absence of any instruction from the PCE, the PCC's local
       policy dictates how the binding allocations are made for a given LSP.

    Thanks!


    Thanks!
    Andrew

        Hi all,

        This message initiates a 2-week PCE WG Last Call for
        draft-ietf-pce-binding-label-sid-07. Please review and share your
        feedback, whatever it is, using the PCE mailing list. This WGLC will end
        on Thursday April 1st (no kidding).


        Moreover, we have received a request from the authors for a code point
        allocation to support interoperability testing.

        RFC 7120 requires to meet the following criteria to proceed:

        b. The format, semantics, processing, and other rules related to
        handling the protocol entities defined by the code points
        (henceforth called "specifications") must be adequately described
        in an Internet-Draft.
        c. The specifications of these code points must be stable; i.e., if
        there is a change, implementations based on the earlier and later
        specifications must be seamlessly interoperable.

        If anyone believes that the draft does not meet these criteria, or
        believes that early allocation is not appropriate for any other
        reason, please send an email to the PCE mailing list explaining why. If
        the chairs hear no objections by Thursday, March 25th, we will kick off
        the "early" allocation request.

        Thanks,

        Dhruv & Julien
