Learning End-point MAC Addresses
Motivation
Interop issues among vendors found at various Interop events/ testing efforts.
ARP round-trip delay before traffic can be forwarded to the protecting LSP, when doing a cutover to a "cold standby" LSP (e.g., 1:1 Case).
In some implementations, the protecting LSP cannot carry any traffic until the traffic is switchover.
ARP round-trip delay during Restoration.
The draft proposes a subobject (of type 11bbbbbb) to be carried in Path and Resv message to learn Ingress and Egress MAC addresses, respectively.
