Working Group, The working group chairs have decided that draft-asm-mpls-tp-bfd-cc-cv-04 will be adopted as an MPLS working group draft. Authors, please resubmit this draft as draft-ietf-mpls-tp-bfd-cc-cv-00.txt without any changes but the file name and the date. George is part of the design team, so I am taking responsibility for this decision. I have, of course, discussed it carefully with George who I trust to give me his opinion of what is best for the working group. Please note that this draft is limited to a part of the OAM problems space. Specifically it addresses CC, CV and RDI. The whole of the OAM problem space in is scope for the MPLS working group. Many parts are already covered by existing RFCs and working group drafts. Other parts are still for future development. As is normal for all working group work, if there are deficiencies in the current draft, please raise the issues on the mailing list and propose solutions as modifications to this draft. If new drafts are needed to cover other parts of the OAM problem space, please start writing them. We would like to clarify that we working group chairs have full authority to make this decision under RFC 4677. This states: "An Internet Draft can be either a Working Group draft or an individual submission. Working Group drafts are usually reviewed by the Working Group before being accepted as a WG item, although the chairs have the final say." Our decision was guided by existing documents that describe MPLS-TP. These documents have been published as RFCs after IETF last call and have been reviewed and approve for publication by the ITU-T. These documents have full community consensus across the IETF and ITU-T. These documents imply that there will be only one OAM solution for MPLST-TP. The documents further makes clear that this solution will be produced by the IETF (with ITU-T review) and that it will be based on existing IETF MPLS mechanisms and within the IETF MPLS architecture. The relevant references are as follows. 1. RFC 5317 Section 2 The JWT recommended that future work should focus on: In the IETF: Definition of the MPLS "Transport Profile" (MPLS-TP). In the ITU-T: Integration of MPLS-TP into the transport network, Alignment of the current T-MPLS ITU-T Recommendations with MPLS-TP and, Termination of the work on current T-MPLS. This says that the IETF is responsible for doing the technical work developing MPLS-TP, a.k.a "desing authority". 2. RFC 5317 Section 9 The JWT found no show stoppers and unanimously agreed that they had identified a viable solution. They therefore recommend Option 1. They stated that in their view, it is technically feasible that the existing MPLS architecture can be extended to meet the requirements of a Transport profile, and that the architecture allows for a single OAM technology for LSPs, PWs, and a deeply nested network. From probing various ITU-T Study Groups and IETF Working Groups it appears that MPLS reserved label 14 has had wide enough implementation and deployment that the solution may have to use a different reserved label (e.g., Label 13). The JWT recommended that extensions to Label 14 should cease. The JWT recognized that the architecture allows for a single OAM solution. Implicit in this recognition is a desire for a single solution. 3. The JWT Report Slide 17 http://www.ietf.org/MPLS-TP_overview-22.pdf or the pdf version of RFC5317. Solution Based on existing Pseudo-wire and LSP constructs The JWT held that solutions should be based on existing IETF MPLS mechanisms. 4. RFC 5654 Requirement 2 2 The MPLS-TP design SHOULD as far as reasonably possible reuse existing MPLS standards. This restates the JWT note about being based on existing IETF MPLS mechanisms.
