Ralph,

As far as I can tell this seems to describe some sort of a Layer 2 stateful
per-flow QoS mechanism using new Ethertype headers. As such I don't see why
the IETF would care. The point of it escapes me, since we have plenty of 
reason
to believe that such solutions are impractical and do not scale, but that 
doesn't
seem like our problem.

I only looked at this to check if it impacted current work in 6MAN on
the IPv6 Flow Label, and there doesn't appear to be any impact or relevance.

Regards

The IETF has recently received a liaison from ITU-T Q5/SG-11 regarding a 
Draft Recommendation.  That liaison is available as 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1054/.  The official liaison is 
available at https://datatracker.ietf.org/documents/LIAISON/file1232.pdf.

The liaison asks for IETF review of Draft Recommendation "Signalling 
protocols and procedures relating to Flow State Aware QoS control in a 
bounded sub-network of a NGN", which is available at 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/documents/LIAISON/file1231.pdf.  This note 
opens an IETF comment period on the document, ending midnight, anywhere on 
earth, 2011/7/5.  After the comment period, a summary will be prepared and 
returned in a liaison to ITU-T Q5/SG-11.

Of specific interest to the IETF are any ways in which the "signalling 
protocols and procedures" defined in the Draft Recommendation might interact 
with existing IETF Internet protocols.  We are especially interested in 
potential adverse interactions or interference with IETF Internet protocols. 
 The technical merits of the "signalling protocols and procedures" defined 
in the Draft Recommendation are of interest inasmuch as the IETF community 
might provide technical advice and recommendations to improve the Draft 
Recommendation itself.

Please respond with any comments on the Draft Recommendation to 
ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org.  Thanks in advance for your review of the Draft 
Recommendation.

- Ralph Droms, Internet Area Director
 for the IESG
