Stephane,

A solution that requires or desires different heuristics depending upon the 
network topology is complex and somewhat fragile.
[SLI] Agree, that why simulation results are interresting.

I also feel that we are in the realm of attempted partial solutions, each more 
complex than the previous one.  SPRING has the hope of making the rLFA approach 
simpler and without a concern for the computational load during convergence 
time (or alternately for the time that is unprotected),

[SLI] Right, SPRING would make things simpler. But SPRING is SPRING, no more IP 
routed networks :) We already know, that some legacy platforms may never 
support SPRING (not ony for technical reason) but LFA/rLFA can be enhanced for 
such equipments that may be kept in networks for years.
I don't really agree about adding complexity there, what we require here is 
just running few fSPFs, and as Pushpasis mentioned,it's peanut in term of 
computation load even on old platforms. Compare the complexity with some 
routers having 100's of RSVP-TE tunnels with CSPF ...

Now, you pointed a very good question. As SPRING would be there, do we still 
need to work on IP FRR enhancements ?  IMHO, both can be kept in parallel. 
Maybe some people may not want to deploy SPRING.
Moreover, I think that it may be good to finish the work on LFA/rLFA with node 
protection addings. Good way to close the work on the subject.

That said, I know this is the path that you are all going down and that you see 
the trade-offs as acceptable.

[SLI] Current IP FRR mechanism are all subjects to tradeoff ... LFA/rLFA, even 
MRT ...



Regards,
Alia

Hi Uma,

Why do you say that the gain is very minimal ?
The gain is major, and it's not just a question of numbers ...
With basic rLFA specification you cannot guarantee node protection. Even if 
based on statistics, node protection exists with basic spec, and NP coverage 
may be quite good depending of topology, it's not guaranteed. For a service 
provider requiring NP, it's really important to guarantee the NP without 
relying on statistics or defacto node protection.

Would be also interested in why do you think the solution is complex ?

Thanks !

Stephane

Support in principle..

Will post detailed  comments  later. But ..


1.       Would like to definitely see IPR claims on this

2.       It's important to note, this is adding additional complexity into the 
system  on OTO rLFA and it's not yielding any/very-minimal gain

for 60-70% of topologies and remaining 30% it's giving around ~10-12% coverage 
gain.
