Response to Liaison concerning approval of MPLS-TP Documents
|
Body |
The IESG has just approved three Internet-Drafts for publication as Informational RFCs. They are: draft-ietf-mpls-tp-oam-analysis (http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mpls-tp-oam-analysis) draft-sprecher-mpls-tp-oam-considerations (http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-sprecher-mpls-tp-oam-considerations/) draft-betts-itu-oam-ach-code-point (http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-betts-itu-oam-ach-code-point) With this approval, these documents will be placed in the RFC Editor queue next week. The document draft-betts-itu-oam-ach-code-point formally requests IANA to allocate a Pseudowire Associated Channel Type for G.8113.1. Since G.8113.1 is a normative reference in this document, RFC publication and code point registration cannot happen until G.8113.1 is approved by the ITU-T for publication. When the ITU-T approves G.8113.1 for publication, please send a Liaison Statement to the IETF Routing Area so that the IANA can register and publish the Pseudowire Associated Channel Type, and the final processing of the RFC can be triggered. Please note that the IESG will insert the following note at the top of the RFC when it is published. This note can be seen in the IETF datatracker along with the IESG's individual comments at http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-betts-itu-oam-ach-code-point/writeup and http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-betts-itu-oam-ach-code-point/ballot. The IESG notes that the IETF has developed a set of OAM tools for MPLS-TP that have been published as Standards Track RFCs. A list of the relevant RFCs can be found in RFC xxxx. The approval of this document and the assignment of an ACh Type does not constitute endorsement by the IETF of the alternate MPLS-TP OAM documented in G.8113.1. The IESG recommends instead that the RFCs noted above should be implemented. [RFC Editor - please replace xxxx with the RFC number assigned to draft-ietf-mpls-tp-oam-analysis.] Adrian Farrel IETF Routing Area Director |
