Subject: Your IETF draft on LTE network configuration
Dear editor of
draft-tsou-network-configuration-problem-statement,
Two quick
questions, if you allow me to:
* Where is this draft
discussed? NetConf working group mailing list?
It
is proposed to be discussed in OPSAWG rather than the NetConf.
The
scope discussed is wider and it is for the whole network instead of an
interface.
* Could middlebox configuration
(draft-ietf-nsis-nslp-natfw) as
considered
in Next Steps In Signalling
(draft-ietf-nsis-ext)
provide any relief for
the automatic generation of network
configuration? One of the most interesting features of
this
framework could be the automatic
discovery of NSIS peers through
GIST. This
however has the pre-requisite of IP connectivity.
The
middlebox configuration is used for traversing NAT/firewall.
The
problem stated is to automatically configure related parameters for
the tunnel between NMS and network device in order to setup
the session tunnel. This configuration exists before the IP
connectivity is setup.
Best
regards,
LS
