04 | Barry Leiba | [Ballot comment] This is non-blocking: To start, realize that I am NOT well versed in PWE3 technology, and please tell me if what I'm asking … [Ballot comment] This is non-blocking: To start, realize that I am NOT well versed in PWE3 technology, and please tell me if what I'm asking about would simply be clearly understood by those who are. In addition to Adrian's rewrite of Section 3 bullet "i" (which I support), I find some other wording clarifications in Section 3 necessary to the understanding of this document: Note: the FEC element in label request message should be the PE's local FEC element. Only if FEC element in label request message could bind together with peer PE's local FEC element, the peer PE sends label mapping with its bound local FEC element and label as a response. I do not understand these two sentences. What is "should be" in the first sentence? Is it, or is it not? I'm not necessarily suggesting changing this to 2119 language, but that you make it clear what you're saying. The second sentence is just unparseable, and I'm not at all sure that I understand what it's trying to say. When Local PE changes the use of control word from PREFERRED to NOT PREFERRED, Local PE would be able to re-negotiate the Control Word to be not used following the procedures defined in [RFC4447], and no label request message to peer PE will be needed. In that case, Local PE will always send new label mapping with C-bit reflecting the locally configured preference for use of Control Word. I'm having a hard time with this paragraph, and don't think I understand it. I think "to be not used" may be throwing me... apart from its not parsing, I *think* it says that you won't use the Control Word (please use consistent capitalization -- you have it capitalized and not capitalized in the same sentence here) in this case. Is that right? Does that make sense? Then the next sentence talk about using the Control Word. Please rephrase this paragraph, or assure me that anyone who understands PWE3 will get this, and that's just not me. I *very* much appreciate and applaud the work done by our non-native-speaking colleagues. With that in mind, I strongly suggest an editing pass by a native speaker who is familiar with the technology, to correct articles, number, tenses, and punctuation. The RFC Editor will do this, of course, but they are not technology experts, and may make errors that will be hard to detect during AUTH48. |

In particular, the following is from IETF 82, when it was last discussed at a meeting: Is the document ready for working group last call? The chairs will discuss after taipei and if ready it will go to last call and if not they will discuss with authors. No issues anticipated as sufficient discussion was present on the list and the document is felt to be in good shape. There were no comments to the contrary at the meeting, and also during WG last call. The absence of dissent is consensus, when you're not taking votes. In addition, the authors have been exemplary in responding to and resolving all received comments. In a case like this, what's the alternative, and I ask this seriously – do we not pass WG last call because people aren't enthusiastic enough? The time to show enthusiasm is during WG adoption, which we saw. The purpose of WG last call is to root out the last bugs and give people a chance to say if they feel it's not yet ready. IMHO, we passed that hurdle. |

The … [Ballot discuss] (Edit to remove piece of Discuss related to process) The Abstract could usefully say that this document updates both 4447 and 6073. The Introduction talks of updating 4447 but does not mention 6073. A clear statement of what is updated in 6073 is needed. --- Section 3.1 -i. Local PE MUST send a label withdraw message to remote PE if it has previously sent a label mapping, and label release message to remote PE, and wait until receiving a label release from the remote PE. I'm afraid that this can't be parsed. Does it mean: -i. If a PE has previously sent a Label Mapping message to a remote PE, it MUST send a Label Withdraw message to the remote PE, send a Label Release message to remote PE, and wait until it receives a Label Release message from the remote PE. --- I agree with Section 4 as it applies to single hop PWs, but it is not consistent with the text in Section 3. This is because Section 3 includes normative description of behavior of the legacy node that Section 4 claims will work without modification. Viz. When the remote PE successfully processed the label withdraw and label release, and removed the remote label binding, it MUST reset its use of control word with the locally configured preference, and send label mapping as a response of label request with locally configured preference for use of control word. I think you need to reword this to show that it represents no change in behavior of the remote PE (i.e. PE1 in your example). However, the case for multi-hop PWs seems less simple. I think you describe behavior required at adjecent S-PEs. Does this come for free or is there a requirement to upgrade all S-PEs to support this function? |

That confused me, since the abstract implies only the PREFERRED->NOT-PREFERRED transition is problematic. - Is it "NOT PREFERRED" or "NOT-PREFERRED"? Pick one. - Section 5: I assume the security considerations from 4447 and/or 6073 apply here as well. Worth saying? |

After adoption I only see: - 00 posted - 01 posted - note from an author - 02 posted - 03 posted - WG last call started - WG last call ended - publication request - IETF last call - 04 posted This does NOT represent strong consensus in the WG, nor good comments at the various stages of its development. It is hard to see it as anything other than complete neglect by the WG. There is no way to make this part of my Discuss actionable for the authors.

Changes are expected over time. This version is dated 24 February 2012. (1) What type of RFC is being requested (BCP, Proposed Standard, Internet Standard, Informational, Experimental, or Historic)? Why is this the proper type of RFC? Is this type of RFC indicated in the title page header? Proposed Standard. This updates a Standards Track RFC. Yes, the title page header is correct. (2) The IESG approval announcement includes a Document Announcement Write-Up. Please provide such a Document Announcement Write-Up. Recent examples can be found in the "Action" announcements for approved documents. The approval announcement contains the following sections: Technical Summary This document solves a particular problem with the control word negotiation mechanism specified in RFC 4447. Based on the problem analysis, a message exchanging mechanism is introduced to solve the control word negotiation issue. This document updates the RFC 4447 control word negotiation mechanism. This update is fully backwards compatible with existing implementations. Working Group Summary This draft had strong consensus in the WG, and received good comments at the various stages of its development. Document Quality There is at least one known vendor implementation of the draft (the reporter says "Our product manager asked me to thank IETF&PWE3 to help to solve this problem"), and other vendors have expressed implementation plans. Personnel Who is the Document Shepherd? Who is the Responsible Area Director? Andrew Malis and Stewart Bryant. (3) Briefly describe the review of this document that was performed by the Document Shepherd. If this version of the document is not ready for publication, please explain why the document is being forwarded to the IESG. The document shepherd reviewed the draft for quality. It's a relatively short draft and the algorithm is easy to follow. Because the lead editor is not a native English speaker, the RFC Editor will probably do a minor editorial cleanup of the text from an English language perspective. Note that the draft currently has seven authors. Two of the authors, Vishwas Manral and Reshad Rahman, have indicated that they are willing to be moved to the acknowledgements section. (4) Does the document Shepherd have any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that have been performed? No concerns. It's been presented several times in the WG meetings and there's been good discussion on the list. (5) Do portions of the document need review from a particular or from broader perspective, e.g., security, operational complexity, AAA, DNS, DHCP, XML, or internationalization? If so, describe the review that took place. No. (6) Describe any specific concerns or issues that the Document Shepherd has with this document that the Responsible Area Director and/or the IESG should be aware of? For example, perhaps he or she is uncomfortable with certain parts of the document, or has concerns whether there really is a need for it. In any event, if the WG has discussed those issues and has indicated that it still wishes to advance the document, detail those concerns here. None. (7) Has each author confirmed that any and all appropriate IPR disclosures required for full conformance with the provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79 have already been filed. If not, explain why. Yes. (8) Has an IPR disclosure been filed that references this document? If so, summarize any WG discussion and conclusion regarding the IPR disclosures. No, there is no known IPR concerning this draft. (9) How solid is the WG consensus behind this document? Does it represent the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with others being silent, or does the WG as a whole understand and agree with it? There is strong consensus in the WG. (10) Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme discontent? If so, please summarise the areas of conflict in separate email messages to the Responsible Area Director. (It should be in a separate email because this questionnaire is publicly available.) No. (11) Identify any ID nits the Document Shepherd has found in this document. (See http://www.ietf.org/tools/idnits/ and the Internet-Drafts Checklist). Boilerplate checks are not enough; this check needs to be thorough. It passes nits. (12) Describe how the document meets any required formal review criteria, such as the MIB Doctor, media type, and URI type reviews. N/A (13) Have all references within this document been identified as either normative or informative? Yes. (14) Are there normative references to documents that are not ready for advancement or are otherwise in an unclear state? If such normative references exist, what is the plan for their completion? No. (15) Are there downward normative references references (see RFC 3967)? If so, list these downward references to support the Area Director in the Last Call procedure. No. (16) Will publication of this document change the status of any existing RFCs? Are those RFCs listed on the title page header, listed in the abstract, and discussed in the introduction? If the RFCs are not listed in the Abstract and Introduction, explain why, and point to the part of the document where the relationship of this document to the other RFCs is discussed. If this information is not in the document, explain why the WG considers it unnecessary. This RFC updates RFC 4447. This is included in the title page header, the abstract, and the introduction. (17) Describe the Document Shepherd's review of the IANA considerations section, especially with regard to its consistency with the body of the document. Confirm that all protocol extensions that the document makes are associated with the appropriate reservations in IANA registries. Confirm that any referenced IANA registries have been clearly identified. Confirm that newly created IANA registries include a detailed specification of the initial contents for the registry, that allocations procedures for future registrations are defined, and a reasonable name for the new registry has been suggested (see RFC 5226). There are no IANA actions. (18) List any new IANA registries that require Expert Review for future allocations. Provide any public guidance that the IESG would find useful in selecting the IANA Experts for these new registries. None. (19) Describe reviews and automated checks performed by the Document Shepherd to validate sections of the document written in a formal language, such as XML code, BNF rules, MIB definitions, etc. N/A |
