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. |
