Dear editors,
In reviewing draft-ietf-mpls-tp-survive-fwk, I noticed that in Section 4.7.4,
Triggers for the Linear Protection Switching Action, the next to the last
paragraph includes a reference to a solution that is work in progress.
Specifically, see italicized text below -
In order to achieve 50ms protection switching it is recommended to
use in-band data-plane driven signaling protocol to coordinate the
protection states. An in-band data-plane PSC (Protection State
Coordination) protocol is defined in [MPLS-TP-Linear-Protection] for
this purpose. This protocol is also used to detect mismatches
between the configuration provisioned at the ends of the Protection
Domain.
Given draft-ietf-mpls-tp-linear-protection is a work in progress - and not a
pre-existing protocol, I do not believe it is appropriate to reference it from
within the framework document. Thus, I propose that the italicized sentences
be deleted.
With best regards,
Eve
