IESG,
I do *NOT* support this draft unless the following changes are made:
The first paragraph of section 8 Acknowledgements has to be removed:
It is an attempt to capture history, but lacks accuracy.
Removal does not impact the technical information in the draft;
the tools have evolved significantly from the strawman tools proposed
in Stockholm; some members of the MEAD team (I am one of them) do not
consider that an agreement on this proposal was reached.
I also request the removal of my name from this acknowledgements section
since I do not support this tool set, neither as an individual nor as
ITU-T Q10 rapporteur. The latter is implied by mentioning my name in
the same sentence as a WG chair and ADs.
Regards, Huub.
=============
The IESG has received a request from the Multiprotocol Label Switching WG
(mpls) to consider the following document:
- 'An Overview of the OAM Tool Set for MPLS based Transport Networks'
<draft-ietf-mpls-tp-oam-analysis-08.txt> as an Informational RFC
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org mailing lists by 2012-03-23. Exceptionally, comments
may be
sent to iesg(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.
Abstract
This document provides an overview of the OAM toolset for MPLS based
Transport Networks. The toolset consists of a comprehensive set of
fault management and performance monitoring capabilities (operating
in the data-plane) which are appropriate for transport networks as
required in RFC 5860 and support the network and services at
different nested levels. This overview includes a brief recap of
MPLS-TP OAM requirements and functions, and of generic mechanisms
created in the MPLS data plane to allow the OAM packets run in-band
and share their fate with data packets. The protocol definitions for
each of the MPLS-TP OAM tools are defined in separate documents (RFCs
or Working Group drafts) which are referenced by this document.
