Body |
We understand from your liaison that draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-rsvp-te-call-04.txt "Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) RSVP-TE Signaling Extensions in support of Calls", is awaiting formal publication by the RFC Editor, and that it is applicable to more than just the ASON architecture. There are a few comments we have on identifiers and addressing for calls that arise from reading draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-rsvp-te-call-04.txt. 1. Call identifiers. Please note that G.7713.x series has a call identifier format. For G.7713.2, this is described in RFC3474 and has RSVP class num of 230. 2. Specifying the destination of a call in ASON is done with a UNI Transport Resource identifier (G.8080 section 10.2). For G.7713.2, this is described in RFC3476 as a Transport Network Address (TNA) and has RSVP class num of 229. We suggest that an equivalent should be included in a future ASON applicability draft. At the time of assignment, both of these class num values were in a range with the semantics that “RSVP will silently ignore, but FORWARD an object with a Class Number in this range that it does not understand.� Thus, usage of these would not pose problems for RSVP instances that did not process calls. Use of these objects has been successfully implemented in OIF interoperability demonstrations.
