R: RE: [mpls] R: Re: LastCall: <draft-ietf-mpls-tp-cc-cv-rdi-05.txt> (Proactive Connectivity Verification,Continuity Check and Remote Defect indicationfor MPLS Transport Profile) to Proposed Standard

The technical concern raised during the WG poll has not been resolved so the 
history definetely matters.

Quoting RFC5921:

   There are thus two objectives for MPLS-TP:

   1.  To enable MPLS to be deployed in a transport network and operated
       in a similar manner to existing transport technologies.

   2.  To enable MPLS to support packet transport services with a
       similar degree of predictability to that found in existing
       transport networks.

Based on the extensive comments provided by transport operators and ITU-T 
community, the solution in this draft is useless in case 1.

The fact that the solution in this draft is not backward compatible with 
existing IP/MPLS BFD implementations means that this solution is also uselesee 
in case 2.

Are there other undocumented use cases for MPLS-TP deployments?

Erminio,
I do not think the history is relevant for this specific discussion... 
Also I find it inappropriate to give statements with no justifications
behind. 
You say: "the solution in this draft is useless for many MPLS-TP
deployments.".  in order to seriously consider your comment, you have to
show why it is useless and which requirements are not satisfied.
Otherwise you cannot expect anyone to refer to your point. 
Best regards,
Nurit

P.s. did you mean that the document is useless to available non-standard
deployments, e.g. T-MPLS?
