The Introduction … [Ballot comment] This document doesn't really define any new on-the-wire protocol. Was publication as a BCP rather than a standards track document considered? The Introduction contains the following text: That means that all non-D neighbors of S on the topology will send to S any traffic destined to D if a neighbor did not, then that neighbor would be loop-free. I can't parse this sentence. Is there supposed to be a sentence break somewhere in there? The introduction starts talking about post-failure events (e.g., "when S converges to the new topology") before mentioning a failure of the S-D link. This makes it very hard to follow. Would suggest mentioning the failure being considered before talking about the ensuing events. Section 4 begins: This document defines a two-step convergence initiated by the router detecting a failure and advertising the topological changes in the IGP. This introduces a delay between the convergence of the local router and the network wide convergence. This reads backwards to me. With this technique, the network converges first, followed by an introduced delay, followed by router convergence. Right? Further on in that section: This benefit comes at the expense of eliminating transient forwarding loops involving the local router. I can't make sense of this. Eliminating transient forwarding loops is a good thing, right? Not an expense? I agree with Alvaro that the lack of a recommended default for ULOOP_DELAY_DOWN_TIMER is an issue, especially as the values configured in the examples seem to change arbitrarily from 1 second to 2 seconds. |

I understand the concepts, but can you please reference the IGP documents where these timers are defined? I quickly checked rfc2328 and couldn’t find a specific place that talked about LSP_GEN_TIMER (or LSA, of course!), or a similar concept. SPF_DELAY seems to be introduced by I-D.ietf-rtgwg-backoff-algo. Given that the rest of Section 5. (Specification) is built on these “existing IGP timers”, I think that the references should be Normative. Note also that the description in Section 5.2. (Current IGP reactions) is described (in 5.3) as the “standard IP convergence” and carries a “MUST” associated with it. It was mentioned (in 5.1) that the timers in question are “often associated with a damping mechanism”, which is not part of the base IGP specifications. I’m putting this comment in as a DISCUSS given that understanding the definitions (and having then Normative references) is necessary for the implementation of the mechanism described. I think it should be easy to resolve by just adding the appropriate references. |

Please put a reference or at least some guidance to the origin of the information. If it's just for informational purposes, then please say so. BTW, please also put a number on the table. [I have the same question for the tables in Section 9.] (2) Section 5.4. (Local delay for link down) specifies that “update of the RIB and the FIB SHOULD be delayed for ULOOP_DELAY_DOWN_TIMER msecs. Otherwise, the RIB and FIB SHOULD be updated immediately.” When would ULOOP_DELAY_DOWN_TIMER not be applied? Along the same lines, if there’s no delay mentioned in Step 5 of 5.3, when would the RIB/FIB not be updated immediately? IOW, why are these “SHOULDs” not “MUSTs”? (3) What should be the default setting for ULOOP_DELAY_DOWN_TIMER? Section 9. (Examples) shows a couple of manually configured (?) scenarios, but no guidance is present in the document. Please include guidance (maybe based on the local network convergence, or even a default that manufacturers can use) in the Deployment Considerations section. (4) Section 11. (Existing implementations). Please take a look at RFC7942. Nits: s/any traffic destined to D if a neighbor did not/any traffic destined to D; if a neighbor did not s/can be work/can work “IGP shortcut feature”: a reference would be nice |

Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2017-10-04. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document describes a mechanism for link-state routing protocols to prevent local transient forwarding loops in case of link failure. This mechanism proposes a two-step convergence by introducing a delay between the convergence of the node adjacent to the topology change and the network wide convergence. As this mechanism delays the IGP convergence it may only be used for planned maintenance or when fast reroute protects the traffic between the link failure time and the IGP convergence. The proposed mechanism is limited to the link down event in order to keep the mechanism simple. Simulations using real network topologies have been performed and show that local loops are a significant portion (>50%) of the total forwarding loops. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rtgwg-uloop-delay/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rtgwg-uloop-delay/ballot/ The following IPR Declarations may be related to this I-D: https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/2565/ |

06 | Chris Bowers | As required by RFC 4858, this is the current template for the Document Shepherd Write-Up. Changes are expected over time. This version is dated … As required by RFC 4858, this is the current template for the Document Shepherd Write-Up. 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 is requested as indicated in the title page header. This is the correct type of RFC since it describes it is useful to have the particular behavior it describes implemented in a consistent manner across different implementations. It is also consistent with the previous decisions to publish as Proposed Standard RFCs related to LFA, RLFA, and node-protecting LFA. (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 Transient forwarding loops can occur among routers using hop-by-hop forwarding. This document describes a mechanism for link-state routing protocols to prevent local transient forwarding loops in case of link failure. This mechanism proposes a two-steps convergence by introducing a delay between the convergence of the router adjacent to the topology change and the network wide convergence. Working Group Summary The final version of the document has strong consensus in the WG. Input from the WG was incorporated in the document, which affected both the scope and substance of the document. Document Quality The document is of high quality. A Routing Area Directorate early review of draft-ietf-rtgwg-uloop-delay-01 was done by Matthew Bocci. It noted mainly grammatical problems, as well as a requesting a few technical clarifications. draft-ietf-rtgwg-uloop-delay-03 addressed both the grammatical and technical clarifications from the review. As discussed in the document, the mechanism described has at least three implementation and has been deployed in live networks. Personnel Document Shepherd: Chris Bowers Responsible Area Director: Alia Atlas (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 was thoroughly reviewed by the document shephard. Some issues were found and discussed on the list with the authors and have been addressed. The Document Shepherd thinks the document is ready for publication. (4) Does the document Shepherd have any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that have been performed? The Document Shepherd has no concerns in this respect. (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. Not beyond the Routing Area Directorate review, which was already performed. (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. The Document Shepherd has no concerns in this respect. (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. All authors have confirmed that they are only aware of the following disclosures: https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/2565/ (8) Has an IPR disclosure been filed that references this document? If so, summarize any WG discussion and conclusion regarding the IPR disclosures. One IPR disclosure references this document, and it has been disclosed to the working group by the authors. There has not been active discussion of the IPR diclosure. (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? The final version of the document has strong consensus from the WG. Early versions of the draft included mechanisms to deal with both link-down and link-up events. The mechanism to deal with the link-up case was later removed from the draft in an effort to solidify consensus on the mechanism to deal with the link-down case. One issue that came up during the WG Last Call was the type of RFC being requested. Stewart Bryant suggested that the RFC should be informational since the behavior described is local to the PLR and therefore does not introduce a requirement for multiple routers to co-operate. However, several people pointed out or agreed with the observation the document is not qualitatively different from the LFA, RLFA, and node-protecting LFA RFCs which were all published as standards track. So publishing this draft as standards track would be consistent with the decision made on those drafts. Stewart indicated that this was not a sticking point and would accept the consensus of 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 https://www.ietf.org/tools/idnits/ and the Internet-Drafts Checklist). Boilerplate checks are not enough; this check needs to be thorough. All ID nits have been addressed as of draft-ietf-rtgwg-uloop-delay-06. (12) Describe how the document meets any required formal review criteria, such as the MIB Doctor, media type, and URI type reviews. No additional formal reviews are required based on the document content. (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? There are no normative references in an unclear state. (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. There are no downward normative references. (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. The publication of this document will not change the status of any existing RFCs. (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 considerations. (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. There are no new IANA registries. (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. No sections of the document are written in a formal language. |
