Hi Madhukar,

- you defined Opaque-Adj-SID sub-TLV is an optional sub-TLV of Extended Link TLV in case of OSPF and one of the IS-Neighbor TLVs in case of ISIS. The parent TLVs in all cases carry the neighbor identifier. Repeating the Remote POG Router-ID/System ID in Opaque-Adj-SID sub-TLV looks redundant.

- Is the "paths through the optical transport domain" always between adjacent POGs? Would not you find it useful to advertise a "path" between non adjacent POG nodes?

- Existing SR architecture includes the definition of Binding SID and there are extensions for IGPs to advertise it. The SID/Label Binding Sub-TLV is used to advertise a SID/Label mapping for a "path" to the prefix. It looks to me there is an overlap between the new Opaque-Adj-SID sub-TLV and existing SID/Label Binding Sub-TLV. Both of them advertise a "binding label" for a "path". Binding Sub-TLV talks about a path to a prefix, but given that the prefix can represent a "Router-ID" of the remote node, it can be used to advertise the path to a node.

- Section 4 of the draft says: "The opaque adjacency segment can also optionally be announced with a set of attributes that characterizes the path". The Opaque-Adj-SID sub-TLV encoding does not provide for additional attributes. SID/Label Binding Sub-TLV supports nested sub-TLVs, which allows you to advertise path path attributes.

I wonder whether existing Binding Sub-TLV with new sub-TLVs could be used for the Packet-Optical integration, rather then defining a new sub-TLV of a similar kind.

thanks,
Peter

Hi all,

The following draft talks about connecting packet and optical networks using 
segment routing as a common control plane. This is an attempt towards 
packet-optical integration. Please review and let us know of any comments.

Abstract:
    This document illustrates a way to integrate a new class of nodes and
    links in segment routing to represent networks in an opaque way for
    further extensibility of the link-state protocols that help with
    segment routing.  An instance of the opaque definition would be
    optical networks that are typically transport centric.  In the IP
    centric network, this will help in defining a common control protocol
    for packet optical integration that will include optical paths as
    opaque 'segments' or sub-paths as an augmentation to the defined
    extensions of segment routing. This opaque option defines a general
    mechanism to allow for future extensibility of segment routing.






Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission 
until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
