My understanding is that a PE typically only has tunnels to some other select
number of PEs.

Hi Les,
I think using IGP to *discover* some services is perfectly fine.
For example many years ago I proposed to use IGP to automatically discover
BGP route reflectors for the sole purpose of bgp auto discovery. After that

Who proposes that ?
AFAIK protocol Tony proposed indicates livness of an IGP node and
specifically not any application on that node.

Advertisement of the availability of an application is not within the scope of
an IGP no matter what level of TLV you use to do so.
Existing capability advertisements (e.g., flex-algo participation, SR ) are
indicators of what the IGP implementation supports and/or is configured to

The issue with PULSE is then why to send PULSES to those PEs which do not
need them ? Same for all the P routers which

Indeed. If you have unreliable registrations, and a registration is lost, then
subsequent notifications would be lost as well. The entire service could yield
no results. What is the use case?
On the bright side, you can always claim that the service is already deployed
and you just happened
Yours is a good operational point, Robert. I wonder what others might think.

Are you sure this is operationally a good idea ?
It's cool when registrations and up notifications will not get lost. But I
would not like to be the one troubleshooting a network when some
registrations or up notifications packets get lost ... It sounds like a
nightmare to me.

On Mon,
Frankly, I don't see that registrations, at least for the node liveness use
case, require using reliable transport. If the registration is lost, the
faster convergence doesn't work for that node but the existing slower
mechanism still does the job done. I want to note that I'm not proposing
Hi Robert,
thank you for clearly stating the question I was implying - Is the reliable
distribution of notifications a requirement or recommendation? I think it
is the latter. In some scenarios and use cases, for example, when the

Hi Greg,
Granted you are correct, but only if we consider p2p distribution and low
level triggers. You are also correct if we would just be continue to use
PULSE style. But Tony's proposal is fundamentally different. It does not
send PULSE and forgets. It distributed node liveness both down and

For the record that assertion is just not true.
Most operators for over 20 years run MPLS encapsulation and with that they
are already leaking *all* loopbacks of the edge nodes domain wide. None of

The crux of the matter is that there is no "luckier" neighbors. There is no
database synchronization. Sure service will eventually converge, but what
is being tried here is to trigger data plane switchover a bit faster.
