Hi all,

I completely agree with Ali and Martin here, OAM is very important tool for a 
technology to be deployed in a production network, we see more and more 
requirements in this area. I support the idea to add the  OAM milestone to the 
new charter.

Best regards,
Mach

主 题:Re: [spring] SPRING - rechartering discussion

Dear WG Chairs,

I completely agree with Martin. To add, the task for "New OAM techniques" is 
not only explicitly mentioned in the existing charter
(https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/charter-ietf-spring/) but there is a current 
milestone associated with it, "Specify the OAM mechanisms needed to support 
SPRING."

At the moment the WG has only defined basic ping, traceroute and probing tools. 
From the initial deployments experiences of segment routing, SPs are coming up 
with the new requirements for operation and management, performance monitoring, 
connectivity verification and traffic accounting, etc. There are numerous 
individual contributions in this area listed in the following (see 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/spring/documents/ for detailed list):

    + draft-ali-spring-sr-traffic-accounting-00. Martin specifically mentioned 
the requirement for traffic accounting. We requested a presentation slot where 
we planned to ask for WG adaptation, but due to time constraint, it did not fit 
the agenda.
    + draft-hegde-spring-traffic-accounting-for-sr-paths-01 is also addressing 
requirement outlined by Martin. It was presented at the last IETF and was 
subject to engaging discussion on the mailing list.
    + draft-ali-spring-srv6-oam-00 is on Spring WG agenda Friday, and we plan 
to ask for WG adaptation.
    + draft-gandhi-spring-sr-mpls-pm-00 requested a slot, but due to time 
constraint, it did not fit the agenda.
    + draft-ali-spring-srv6-pm-02 also requested a slot, but due to time 
constraint, it did not make it to the agenda.
    + draft-ali-spring-bfd-sr-policy-00 and draft-mirsky-spring-bfd-05 are on 
Spring agenda for discussion on Friday.
    + draft-cheng-spring-mpls-path-segment-01
    + draft-fioccola-spring-flow-label-alt-mark-01
    + draft-li-spring-passive-pm-for-srv6-np-00

In summary, as you can see that there is a tremendous interest in the SPRING 
OAM area, which is in the existing charter and a current milestone. I would 
like to request WG chair to complete this work in the existing milestone or add 
a new milestone for it.

Thanks

Regards ... Zafar

    Hello Bruno, Martin, Rob, and whole WG,

    as with many bigger protocols that actually make their way into
    production networks, I get the strong feeling that SPRING is not done
    with the conclusion of the core documents. As the technology gets closer
    to production use, unforeseen topics and issues appear that need to be
    discussed and - in many cases - standardized. I do see the need for
    documents of the "operators' requirements" style.

    Conflict resolution was one good example. Others are about traffic
    steering and traffic and/or performance measurement und monitoring.

    Probably not all networks have the same requirement as ours, but maybe
    there are others that feel like us: we cannot afford to transport
    sginificant huge amounts of traffic if we cannot measure it. Measure it
    in a way that is suitable to generate traffic matrices and and allows to
    offline simulate the whole network.
    Same for traffic steering: how can I actually differentiate the traffic
    and have the routers choose the right segment lists for every packet?

    While I'm having very good discussions with multiple vendors about these
    topics, I really think this is something that needs to be standardized.
    And in this case it means, in my eyes, that the charter of the SPRING wg
    must be enhanced in some way to allow this kind of discussion and
    standardization.


    Best regards, Martin
