Tom,

I don't think there is any objections to improving the document, the
most straight-forward way of doing this is the time-honored IETF
method "supply the text!"

I oppose publication of this I-D in its present form.

The idea of having an I-D that says two OAM solutions will cost is fine, but
there are too many technical errors, especially in sections 4 and 5 (better as
Brian suggested as appendices), for it to go forward as it stands.  Huub,
Malcolm and Andy have pointed out the errors in SONET/SDH, I would take issue
with OSPF/ISIS and IPv4/IPv6.  The errors aren't gross, but they add up to too
many.

The sponsoring AD has given his reasons why this is an individual submission but
I think that the consequence is that the document quality is too low to be
published.  It needs the review of a wider body of expertise, the routing area
perhaps, before it is published.

(TheReasons for Selecting a Single Solution for MPLS-TP OAM) toInformational RFC

The IESG has received a request from an individual submitter to consider
the following document:
- 'The Reasons for Selecting a Single Solution for MPLS-TP OAM'
   <draft-sprecher-mpls-tp-oam-considerations-01.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@xxxxxxxx mailing lists by 2011-10-24. Exceptionally, comments may be
sent to iesg@xxxxxxxx instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract

    The MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) is a profile of MPLS technology
    for use in transport network deployments. That is, MPLS-TP is a set
    of functions and features selected from the wider MPLS toolset and
    applied in a consistent way to meet the needs and requirements of
    operators of packet transport networks.

    During the process of development of the profile, additions to the
    MPLS toolset have been made to ensure that the tools available met
    the requirements. These additions were motivated by MPLS-TP, but form
    part of the wider MPLS toolset such that any of them could be used in
    any MPLS deployment.

    One major set of additions provides enhanced support for Operations,
    Administration, and Maintenance (OAM). This enables fault management
    and performance monitoring to the level needed in a transport
    network. Many solutions and protocol extensions have been proposed to
    address these OAM requirements, and this document sets out the
    reasons for selecting a single, coherent set of solutions for
    standardization.
