As I know the control channel is a pair bi-directional reachable interface. That means messages can flow in the "path" A1->B1 and B1->A1. So does the "path" A2->B2 and B2->A2. The common idea is take one channel as active one, and another one as backup, certainly you can set both of them as active and each of them serve for a certain group of TE link. Here, you have two seperate "udi-direction" control channels, are they physical "uni" or just logical "uni-directional"? So far, I don't think any document prohibites or specifies it. regards, Liu Qiang -----Original Message----- From: owner-ccamp@ops.ietf.org [mailto:owner-ccamp@ops.ietf.org]On Behalf Of Reddy, Vikram Sent: 2002?9?27? 15:17 To: ccamp@ops.ietf.org; IETF MPLS List Subject: Question on Control Channel -Data Channel association Hi all, I have a question on the association of Control Channel and Data Channel.

If we look at the processing of an ERO label subobject it is mentioned that downstream label in the ERO subobject is passed in the Label Set object in the path message to the next node , and Upstream Label in ERO label subobject is passed in Upstream label in Path message to the next node . Using Numberred ERO subobject we can mention either incoming or outgoing interface , can the same thing hold good for unnumberred ERO subobject . The problem here is that if it is intended for incoming interface then we need to check the interface number with the PHOP to see if it is consistent.

I have something to say regarding this point. Synchronized Parameter settings are sometimes harmful. Most of the LMP Hello protocol fundamentals are derived from OSPF. But, inherently there are some issues with the OSPF Hello protocol parameter exchange. Radia's 1991 paper reads (FYI): In OSPF, there are several parameters that must be configured identically in routers, or else the router will refuse to communicate with each other. This creates a problem because it is virtually impossible to change the parameter setting via network management. Once a router's parameter setting is changed, it is cut off from the rest of the network since no other routers will be able to communicate with it. . . . - HelloTime and DeadTime: . . . ISIS reports only DeadTime in its Hello messages (not HelloTime). As a result, the ratio between DeadTime and HelloTime is fixed in ISIS, but can be configured in different ways by OSPF. ISIS uses the information solely to determine how long to wait between receipt of Hellos from a particular neighbor before declaring the link to that neighbor down. There is no necessity for neighboring nodes to have the same value. Being able to change these timers in a running network is important. As a LAN becomes larger it might be decided that the overhead from hellos is too great. It also might be important in some configurations to be able to run with different hello timers for different routers. There might be some routers for which quick deletion of failure would be very desirable, whereas for other routers quick deletion of failure might not be as important. To lower overhead these routers might be configured with a longer HelloTime. This cannot be done in OSPF since all routers must have identical timers. Moreover, please remember that LMP hellos are very very granular. The scalability requirements for LMP are little strict when compared to traditional protocols. So, please revisit the LMP hello protocol timer configurations. After all, my 2 cents... :) -- Venkata.

GMPLS supports explicit data channel identification by providing interface identification information. GMPLS allows the use of a number of interface identification schemes including IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, interface indexes (see [MPLS- UNNUM]) and component interfaces (established via configuration or a protocol such as [LMP]). ***In all cases the choice of the data interface is indicated by the upstream node using addresses and identifiers used by the upstream node.*** The final sentence is clear enough for the Path message. The RSVP_HOP object will specify the router ID and local link identifier according to the LSR generating the Path message. It is not clear what is intended in the Reserve message. I am guessing it is again the router ID and local link identifier, but this time according to the generator of the Reserve message. However, I can imagine other alternatives.

Lang Filename : draft-ietf-ccamp-lmp-06.txt Pages : 73 Date : 2002-9-18 For scalability purposes, multiple data links can be combined to form a single traffic engineering (TE) link. Furthermore, the management of TE links is not restricted to in-band messaging, but instead can be done using out-of-band techniques. This document specifies a link management protocol (LMP) that runs between neighboring nodes and is used to manage TE links. Specifically, LMP will be used to maintain control channel connectivity, verify the physical connectivity of the data links, correlate the link property information, suppress downstream alarms, and localize link failures for protection/restoration purposes in multiple kinds of networks.

Date: Wed, 18 Sep 2002 15:44:34 -0700 Organization: NEC hi all, I have the following doubts in GMPLS-IGP interaction for TE. could u please explain me? Normally for TE purposes we use explicit path for establishing the LSP tunnel. For finding out the explicit path CSPF is used. using ISIS TE extensions, the link properties are flooded within the IGP area level only, it's not flooded across the entire AS. if that is the case if we want to establish a tunnel that spans multiple areas then the L1 router sitting in one area does not know the properties of the links outside that area, so we can't compute the complete constraint based path from that router. if my assumptions are wrong, please explain me the correct procedure to compute the complete path which spans across multiple areas of an IGP. thanks rams.

GMPLS supports explicit data channel identification by providing interface identification information. GMPLS allows the use of a number of interface identification schemes including IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, interface indexes (see [MPLS- UNNUM]) and component interfaces (established via configuration or a protocol such as [LMP]). ***In all cases the choice of the data interface is indicated by the upstream node using addresses and identifiers used by the upstream node.*** The final sentence is clear enough for the Path message. The RSVP_HOP object will specify the router ID and local link identifier according to the LSR generating the Path message. It is not clear what is intended in the Reserve message. I am guessing it is again the router ID and local link identifier, but this time according to the generator of the Reserve message. However, I can imagine other alternatives.

This draft is a work item of the Internet Traffic Engineering Working Group of the IETF. Title : TE LSAs to extend OSPF for Traffic Engineering Author(s) : P. Srisuresh, P. Joseph Filename : draft-srisuresh-ospf-te-03.txt Pages : 42 Date : 2002-9-16 OSPF is a link state routing protocol used for IP-network topology discovery and collection and dissemination of link access metrics. The resulting Link State Database (LSDB) is used to compute IP address forwarding table based on shortest-path criteria. Traffic Engineering extensions(OSPF-TE) outlined in this document are built on the native OSPF foundation, utilizing new LSAs, designed specifically for TE. OSPF-TE sets out to discover TE network topology and perform collection and dissemination of TE metrics within the TE network. This results in the generation of an independent TE-LSDB, that would permit computation of TE circuit paths. Unlike the native OSPF link metrics, TE metrics can be rapidly changing and varied across different elements of the network. TE circuit paths are computed using varied TE criteria, often different from the shortest-path, to route traffic around congestion paths. Principal motivations to designing the OSPF-TE over [OPQLSA-TE] and transition path for vendors currently using [OPQLSA-TE] to adapt the OSPF-TE are outlined in separate sections within the document. OSPF-TE provides a single unified mechanism for traffic engineering across packet and non-packet networks, and may be adapted for a peer networking model.

What was the reasoning behind adding the new section on trace monitoring? Will the main LMP draft also be updated to include the trace function (presumably optional)? For that matter, is it clear that trace monitoring is a SONET/SDH-specific function (anything apply to G.709, for example)?

Thanks for the detailed explanation. To round this out, it would make sense to re-issue lmp-wdm (it's past expiry, so it's good to re-issue this anyway), and take out the material that's been moved to the lmp sonet-sdh doc. It would also be good to say in a changes-since-last-version section where exactly the new text went. Kireeti.

That would explain how something from LMP-WDM has somehow become a draft "separated" from LMP... I thought that before going to Working Group Last Call that a draft should at least be given some review, perhaps even the opportunity given for people to consider alternatives. But I see that you speak for "our community" so everyone else must agree with you!

Nothing new here. Section 3 gives an overview of Link Verification. Again, nothing new here. Section 3.1 provides details of the various options for the Verify Transport Mechanism when the encoding is SONET/SDH. Of these, the first 4 options came from Section 14.8 of draft-ietf-ccamp-lmp-04.txt with the clarification posted to the list in response to Jonathan Sadler's doubt. The remaining options are new based on comments to the list that additional trail trace identifier strings (J1, J2) could be used. Section 4 is SONET/SDH technology specific text taken from Section 3.6 of draft-ietf-ccamp-lmp-wdm-00.txt.

Also, concerns were expressed on the mailing list that some of the functions in LMP were not applicable in SONET/SDH, _including_ link verification. The new draft is basically a set of extensions _to_ link verification. Cheers, L.

Then can I ask you to provide references (specific sections) in the original LMP document where the bulk of the text was taken? Also, based on what you say, no I don't think we're suggesting any change to IETF process. Changing an existing WG document from one version to another is always done and always will be done based on additional considerations and input from the WG based on consensus. However, when creating a completely new/separate document then there is a question of how that new document gets WG status while another document that was submitted that probably is more consistent with the transport technology was not made into a WG document.

While waiting, the node SHOULD also preserve the RSVP and MPLS forwarding state for (already) established LSPs that traverse the link(s) between the node and the neighbor. In a sense with respect to established LSPs the node behaves as if it continues to receive periodic RSVP refresh messages from the neighbor. The node MAY clear RSVP and forwarding state for the LSPs that are in the process of being established when their refresh timers expire. Refreshing of Resv and Path state SHOULD be suppressed during this waiting period. The clear intent is that established LSPs SHOULD not be torn down due to a loss of refresh messages when RSVP knows that the control channel is not functional. LSPs that are not yet fully established MAY be torn down. Still, all of this is in the context of using this optional procedure. Does this apply when the optional procedure is not used, but a control channel failure is detected by other means, e.g. LMP?

My question is: is there a consensus in this WG to eliminate this need, for those LSP that are inherently hard state (SDH/SONET, WDM, G.709)?

I'll try to explain my question better; suppose you want to detail an LSP up to the Label level (this is foreseen by the Explicit Label Control procedure) if the LSP traverses a Bundle Link the Path sender has to explicitly declare the component interface used in each direction. I haven't found the objects needed to declare Upstream and Downstream Component interfaces in the ERO.

The spec doesn't mandate that the mapping is deleted; however, the LinkSummary message must be positively Acked (i.e., the mapping must be validated) before bringing the link back up again.

Cc: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Michael, This question periodically resurfaces. Such support is not technically challenging, the question is whether it's useful. Such support was discussed at the time of merging all the drafts that fed into GMPLS. At the time, it was excluded as no participating provider (or vendor, for that matter) believed that it would be used in any operational context. Given this, there was consensus to not add complexity and mechanisms that would not actually be used.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Hi, ERO label subobjects will be one with the U-bit set and one NULL label without the U-bit set. I think ERO label subobjects are not mandatory though. By the way, if the last hop subobject in an ERO is followed by label subobjects, are the label subobjects used for "LSP splicing"? Also I should try to improve the description around hierarchical LSP considerations including the deletion process.

At the same time, the LSR may send the Path/Request message for the original reverse-directional LSP to the other edge of the region." another point is as follows: we have implementations ongoing within our community for the set of features that are described in the common control gmpls signalling i-d's -> therefore it would be of great interest to gather more information on deployment/utilisation (ie experimental i-ds) in the near future in order to be capable to assess what might be further considered from that persceptive for these i-d's - i think this may also be applied to other items that may come out in the same register - thanks, - dimitri.

We've updated the text to address the Test/Bootstrap message ambiguity in the special case where normal LMP Test/Bootstrap messages can't be used due to byte limitations. The new text for the 0x01 J0-16 Test message reads: "The Test message (i.e., the string inserted into the frame) is a 15-byte message, where the 7 most significant bits (msb) of each byte are usable. Due to the byte limitation, the LMP Header is not included. The first usable 4 bits are reserved. These bits MUST be sent as zero and ignored on receipt. The next usable 2 bits are used to identify the message type. For the Test message, this value is 0. The next usable bit is used to determine the address type of the Interface_Id. For IPv4, this value is 0. For unnumbered, this value is 1. The next usable 32 bits MUST be the Interface_Id. The next usable 32 bits MUST be the Verify_Id that was received in the VERIFY_ID object of the BeginVerifyAck message. The remaining bits are reserved and should be sent as zero and ignored on receipt. Note that this Test Message format is only valid when the Interface_Id is either IPv4 or unnumbered." The Bootstrap message has also been updated and will be identified will a value of 1.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii hi, from the i-d perspective most of the content deals with setup, it would also be good if some words concerning the deletion can be proposed (i mean the reference to the method described in current gmpls signalling i-d) and also to clarify the following paragraph wrt to the signalling procedure: "If a new FA-LSP is required to be set up between the LSR and the other edge of the region, the LSR initiates the setup of a new reserve-directional FA-LSP. At the same time, the LSR may send the Path/Request message for the original reverse-directional LSP to the other edge of the region." another point is as follows: we have implementations ongoing within our community for the set of features that are described in the common control gmpls signalling i-d's -> therefore it would be of great interest to gather more information on deployment/utilisation (ie experimental i-ds) in the near future in order to be capable to assess what might be further considered from that persceptive for these i-d's - i think this may also be applied to other items that may come out in the same register - thanks, - dimitri.

But MPLS in principle doesn't restrict the direction of an LSP setup. Therefore I think it is a reasonable generalization and posted an I-D for this matter.

I believe ccamp is not yet chartered to address multi-area routing, or at least has not seriously taken this issue up at this point. Also, the status of CR-LDP extensions for GMPLS is not=20 clear given that there has been a push to cap work on CR-LDP. Is this still going for Proposed Standard, or will this become Informational?

Is there also interest in time? The only reference to temporal tracing is in section 6 item 5: "include tunnel components and round trip delay across each component". In this draft or possibly another it might be valuable to extend the granularity of the discussion to: * time: delay and jitter from one node to another. * space: what are the nodes? Reference to GMPLS in the draft indicate that L1/L2 transport nodes are of interest. * space and time: within nodes, such as routers, would you extend the spatial and temporal tracing to interfaces? to other logical / functional components such as the "datapath elements" referenced in RFC 3290/89? Timing in transport equipment at the sub-IP area and in datapath components of those nodes? It's valuable to know not only where traffic goes but also the time it takes to get there, on all layers of the path, in equipment on each of those layers, and in functional components within those nodes. But these issues don't have to be covered in this draft. They might be addressed elsewhere by individuals whose daily work depends on multivendor multiprovider QoS tracing. -- TT Envelope-to: ccamp-data@psg.com Delivery-date: Wed, 04 Sep 2002 06:08:49 -0700 Cc: ccamp Message-ID: <3D76050A.9D69D540@lucent.com> Date: Wed, 04 Sep 2002 15:05:14 +0200 From: Maarten Vissers Organization: Lucent Technologies MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "Wijnen, Bert" Original-CC: ccamp Subject: Re: Summary of LMP implementation/deployment reports Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Bert, The technology specific part of the proposed neighbor discovery is the bandwidth selected to transport the neighbor discovery message defined in section 3 of http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-everdingen-ccamp-lmp-00.txt. I.e. the proposal suggests to use as bandwidth the SDH overhead bytes J0 (STM-N link), J1 (STS/HOVC link), J2 (VT/LOVC link). The discovery method and message itself are generic and can be applied to multiple technologies. E.g. for an OTN ODUk link one could use as bandwidth the bytes 32-63 in the ODUk TTI overhead.

Best regards, Diego "Wijnen, Bert (Bert)" on 04/09/2002 13.43.21 To: Maarten Vissers , Diego Caviglia cc: "Dimitri.Papadimitriou" , "Carmine Daloia , "Kireeti Kompella , "Nik Langrind , " Ccamp-wg (E-mail) Subject: RE: Summary of LMP implementation/deployment reports Guys... I have already strongly suggested that any technology specific stuff goes in a separate doc. Still need to check if and how this has been teken care of in the new revision. But if any of the technology specific stuff listed below were to be accepted by the WG, I think it should be in a separate technology specific document, and NOT in the COMMON CONTROL LMP document. And if this is optical technology specific, does it then belong in in CCAMP, or even in IETF or is it something to be done in another WG or in another organisation?

This draft is a work item of the Common Control and Measurement Plane Working Group of the IETF. Title : Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) Architecture Author(s) : E. Mannie Filename : draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-architecture-03.txt Pages : 58 Date : 2002-9-3 Future data and transmission networks will consist of elements such as routers, switches, DWDM systems, Add-Drop Multiplexors (ADMs), photonic cross-connects (PXCs), optical cross-connects (OXCs), etc that will use Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) to dynamically provision resources and to provide network survivability using protection and restoration techniques.This document describes the architecture of GMPLS. GMPLS extends MPLS to encompass time-division (e.g. SDH/SONET, PDH, G.709), wavelength (lambdas), and spatial switching (e.g. incoming port or fiber to outgoing port or fiber). The main focus of GMPLS is on the control plane of these various layers since each of them can use physically diverse data or forwarding planes. The intention is to cover both the signaling and the routing part of that control plane.

I have already strongly suggested that any technology specific stuff goes in a separate doc. Still need to check if and how this has been teken care of in the new revision. But if any of the technology specific stuff listed below were to be accepted by the WG, I think it should be in a separate technology specific document, and NOT in the COMMON CONTROL LMP document. And if this is optical technology specific, does it then belong in in CCAMP, or even in IETF or is it something to be done in another WG or in another organisation?

I.e it can be used to discover: - STM-N TTP - TTP neighbors (e.g. two SDH eq connected via DWDM system) - STM-N CTP - TTP neighbors - STM-N CTP - CTP neighbors Note - STM-N CTP is located in a pre-OTN transparent optical cross connect (do they still exist these days? :-( ), and in an OTN ODUk equipment's STM-N trib port interface. - STS/HOVC TTP - TTP neighbors (e.g. two routers with STM-N interfaces connected via non-ASON/GMPLS SDH/SONET network) - STS/HOVC CTP - TTP neighbors (e.g. router with STM-N interface and SDH ADM) - STS/HOVC CTP - CTP neighbors (e.g. two SDH HO ADMs/DXCs) - VT/LOVC TTP - TTP neighbors - VT/LOVC CTP - TTP neighbors - VT/LOVC CTP - CTP neighbors (e.g. two SDH LO ADMs/DXCs) It can be used for neighbor discovery in - (simple) link (G.805: link connection) cases and - serial-compound link (G.805: link connection) cases. This particularly important for the roll out of ASON/GMPLS networks. In this phase there will be many non-ASON/GMPLS SDH/SONET networks which will interconnect ASON/GMPLS subnetworks. If a set of STS/HOVC [VT/LOVC] connections is set up through such non-ASON/GMPLS SDH/SONET network as a (serial-compound) link bundle (G.805: (serial-compound) link), then the ASON/GMPLS neighbors are the last network element in the first ASON/GMPLS subnetwork and the first network element in the second ASON/GMPLS subnetwork. The non-ASON/GMPLS SDH/SONET network is now simply a part of the "data link" between these two network elements. The ASON/GMPLS SDH/SONET network elements are also "transparent devices" (in the sense of LMP section 5, par. 4) that do not "modify or examine data in normal operation". As such, the the last sentence in the text in par. 5 of section 5 is not correct. LMP, v0.5, section 5, par. 5: "Furthermore, for the link verification procedure it is assumed that the nodal architecture is designed so that messages can be sent and received over any data link. Note that this requirement is trivial for opaque devices since each data link is electrically terminated and processed before being forwarded to the next opaque device, but that in transparent devices this is an additional requirement." A SDH/SONET cross connect or ADM seems to be such "opaque device", but doesn't terminate the STS/HOVC or VT/LOVC "data link" that exists between the two ASON/GMPLS neighbors. Michiel and Greg's proposal support automatic discovery between two neighbor nodes that are either at the end of the same fiber, or at the end of different fibers (and have one or more "transparent devices" between these fibers). Regards, Maarten PS. as there seems to be no willingness to address Michiel/Greg's proposal in ccamp (is this a correct conclusion of the email correspondence so far), it seems waste of time for all to continue this discussion over here. Let's concentrate this work in Q.14/15 and include it in G.7714. The market then must decide between LMP and G.7714. Diego Caviglia wrote: > > Hi Dimitri, > is neighbor discovery in the scope of LMP?

I suppose that it is. With Nbr discovery I'm referring to the scenario where a TNE is attached to, say 4, TNEs and doesn't know to which of these TNE its TEs are attached to. Where is this discovery procedure described in the ID? This seems to me one of the major advantages of LMP (for sure more important than fault management which in the transport network is well covered by inherent Sonet/SDH capabilities) so a specific section that addresses neighbor discovery is needed, of course IMHO. Some time ago I posted a mail on this topic, here is the reference: http://ops.ietf.org/lists/ccamp/ccamp.2002/msg00979.html Again from my point of view a section that describes in detail this feature is needed in the ID. Best regards, Diego.

This knowledge may be manually configured or automatically discovered." and then you follow the procedure as described in this i-d (in fact the bootstrap i-d also completes the second alternative of the above sentence). hope this clarifies, - dimitri.

Unfortunately, there are half duplex miswiring situations where that will not be a safe assumption. As an example, if you have three nodes/ports A, B, and C that are miswired with A xmit connected B rcv, and B xmit -> C rcv, then A sending out a control channel bootstrap will cause an A-B control channel, but the test messages intended to go B->A will instead go to C. Since C has not received any control channel messages stating there is a Verification in process, it will interpret it as a Bootstrap message as there is no way to determine from the message what type of message was sent... > in brief you have the following cases: > Data plane Prior exchange at Control Plane > ----------------------------------------------------- > - Test message <-> BeginVerify exchange > - Bootstrap message <-> nothing (having initiated the > exchange of the Bootstrap message) > > i think this respond to the question you have asked (at > least as far as i understood it) - if yes then is there > an issue with the current way the content of the above > mentioned i-d describes this ?

This knowledge may be manually configured or automatically discovered." and then you follow the procedure as described in this i-d (in fact the bootstrap i-d also completes the second alternative of the above sentence). hope this clarifies, - dimitri.

I disagree with one point. You say that the bootstrap process would not cause anything in the lmp draft to be modified. Once the controll address of the neighbor is learned via the bootstrap process, I don't see the purpose for Control Channel Management Procedure. A link summary message can be sent directly to the controll address learned via the bootstrap process. Therefore I would have expected the Control Channel Management Procedure to be removed completely or at least made optional.

The next usable bit is used to identify the type of Control Address: if set, the Interface Id is numbered (IPv4); if clear, the Control Address is unnumbered. The next usable 32 bits MUST be the Control Address. The remaining bits are Reserved. " the test message definition when transported over J0: " The first usable 8 bits are used to determine the address type of the Interface_Id. For IPv4, this value is 1.

The next usable 32 bits MUST be the Verify_Id that was received in the VERIFY_ID object of the BeginVerifyAck message The remaining bits are reserved and should be sent as zero and ignored on receipt." thus the second message includes a VERIFY_ID that the first one (the bootstrap one) does not contain - moreover the first one indicates the Node Id (as requested by a bootstrap mechanism) - note: it is also clear that if you have a prior BeginVerify/BeginVerifyAck negotiation you expect a Test message pattern to be received (thus one has a consistency check mechanisms: thus, first do i recognize the "pattern" sent and then correlation w/ the information exchanged (if any) through the control plane in brief you have the following cases: Data plane Prior exchange at Control Plane ----------------------------------------------------- - Test message <-> BeginVerify exchange - Bootstrap message <-> nothing (having initiated the exchange of the Bootstrap message) i think this respond to the question you have asked (at least as far as i understood it) - if yes then is there an issue with the current way the content of the above mentioned i-d describes this ? thanks, - dimitri.

As stated, section 5 requires a BeginVerify to be sent after a control channel is set up. Consequently, it is not possible to use the Test messages as the basis of setting up a control channel. Since a control channel requires explicit identification of the peer controller, there is no "discovery" going on. An alternate approach, which is included in G.7714, is that the in-band messages (eg. the LMP test messages) should contain the controller ID allowing the controller to be identified, and therefore seed the control channel setup. I am aware of http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-lang-ccamp-lmp-bootstrap-00.txt doing something similar to what G.7714 states, but unfortuantely no information has been provided on how to distinguish between the bootstrap and test messages when transported over certain bearers (ie. J0). Please provide insight.

Is this what you mean by LMP being able to *build* the mappings? However this requires that an operator *PROVISION* for each and every data link the remote node address that the data link is terminated on. Only with this provisioning will the local node know the address to send the BeginVerify message to. So LMP can *build* the mappings (i.e., reduce operator provisioning) if the operator has previously provisioned the remote node addresses for each and every data link. Doesn't seem like a useful capability.

Actually, LMP is used to *build* the mappings, not verify them. If the mappings were already stored, LMP could be used to verify them -- but that is a secondary function.

So basically LMP is used to verify that the datalink id mappings stored in the neighboring nodes match eachother. This type of capability would make more sense to be part of the protocol that provided autodiscovery (i.e., discovered the datalink id mappings). After autodiscovery completes and the id mappings are stored, the protocol can subsequently verify whether the mappings stored in the neighboring nodes match eachother. In my opinion, it is the ability to autodiscover the id mappings that is more useful than just verifying at a later time if the mappings still match. Since LMP doesn't support autodiscovery, it doesn't seem to be useful for LMP to check whether the mappings match or not. This check can be done via the autodiscovery protocol itself.

Besides bundled links this could be applied to configuring technology specific stuff like configuring a 1:N SONET/SDH linear APS group. (b) Zhi hit the reality of the situation -- Almost all of the optical interoperability that we've seen (relevant to control plane and not, say, components like amplifiers) has been either via SONET/SDH or Ethernet signals. (c) Of the implementations that Bert listed, how many were being used just for OIF UNI 1.0 discovery (SONET/SDH) interoperability rather than general LMP? Bert, Kireeti and/or Ron where are we in the process wrt the document?
