Warren Kumari on Operations Area Director's Role
Still having fun but need more volunteers, talk to Warren.
AD role at the IESG review, for many new authors.

WG Status:

  • IESG Comment Resolution, WG Adoptions, and Proposals

WG Drafts:

WG Adoption Review:

  • Benchmarking Methodology for Stateful NATxy Gateways using RFC 4814

    Pseudorandom Port Numbers
    https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-lencse-bmwg-benchmarking-stateful-04

    status:
    - One set of comments exchanged during (so far) adoption call -
    extended
    - ~5 people have discussed the draft on the list in May-July, 2021

    • Reference to procedures in RFC 8219
    • TCP-based testing = compliments the NG security device testing?
    • Another revised version of the Draft available -

    • novelties of the draft (and also some new measurement results)
      https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-lencse-v6ops-transition-scalability#section-2.4

    • Slides summarize the draft coverage and history.
      Covered the new material in Table capacity measurements

      • Will add v6 set-up as well as v4 current. 2001:0200::/48
        section 8 of [RFC5180] and 198.18.0.0/15 ([RFC3330]) for
        IPv4 benchmark testing, not 10/8
      • Tamas Hetenyi has implemented the OS tester and the tests in
        the draft, FPGA-based, and will implement new features. Kind
        of an ulitimate support.
      • Tim Winters - support for WG doc, qa will review.
      • Al Proposed adoption after extended call (there have been no
        objections on the list)
      • Sarah agrees, plenty of support for adoption!

Proposals:

  • Benchmarking Methodology for MPLS Segment Routing - Paolo Volpato
    Related Draft:
    https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-vfv-bmwg-srmpls-bench-meth-02.txt

    • Welcome Paolo!
    • Definitely need the draft to help SR adoption in the industry.
      Both an operator and a supplier see the need for this. Also
      Boris chatted: SR became useful in operators networks. So this
      work sounds important.
    • Also the ETSI TST spec should be TST-009, for virtualized
      testing.
    • The authors have cosidered RFC5695 for MPLS benchmarking and
      cataloged the changed that are required.
    • Need reviewers, Boris Khasanov recently tested will provide
      feedback

  • Benchmarking Methodology for IPv6 Segment Routing - Eduard Vasilenko

    Related Draft:
    https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-vfv-bmwg-srv6-bench-meth-02.txt

    • Same team of authors For SRMPLS, it's really a little late, but
      for SRv6 maybe not: has about 250 projects world wide, need the test
      plan now. It's a little simpler than SR-MPLS.
    • Again TE and VPN services are excluded in the scope. about 40% of
      the text has changed in this version.
    • Need at least 2 SIDs in this testing
    • Need ideas for additional development (review, testing).
    • Luis Contreras plans some testing after the Summer - report at
      IETF-115
    • Gabor Lencse - will review after 2 months,
    • Bor Khasanov - same
    • Christine - are there any example of testing with the draft -
      Eduard no examples of tests with the draft

  • AOB
