I have reviewed this document as part of the security directorate's ongoing effort to review all IETF documents being processed by the IESG. These comments were written primarily for the benefit of the security area directors. Document editors and WG chairs should treat these comments just like any other last call comments.
"A backup egress MUST be configured on the ingress of an LSP to
protect a primary egress of the LSP if and only if the backup egress
is not indicated in another place."
Can you define "another place"? Is it the "primary egress"? others?
We will update the document accordingly as below:
"A backup egress MUST be configured on the ingress of an LSP to
protect a primary egress of the LSP if and only if the backup egress
is not configured on the primary egress."
"To protect a primary egress of an LSP, a backup egress MUST be
configured on the primary egress of the LSP to protect the primary
egress if and only if the backup egress is not indicated in another
place."
Can you define "another place"? Is it the "ingress"? others?
[HC] Yes. Another place in this context is the ingress.
We will update the document accordingly as below:
"To protect a primary egress of an LSP, a backup egress MUST be
configured on the primary egress of the LSP to protect the primary
egress if and only if the backup egress is not configured on the
ingress."
"Note that protecting a primary egress of a P2P LSP carrying service
traffic through a backup egress requires that the backup egress trust
the primary egress for the information received for a service label
as UA label."
Can you elaborate on this statement?
How would the backup egress trust the primary egress?
[HC] The information may be sent to the backup egress from the
"primary egress" through another protocol such as BGP. The backup egress
need to make sure that the "primary egress" that another protocol uses
is the same primary egress to be protected.
The backup egress may check whether the remote end of the BGP session
is the primary egress if BGP is used to send the information to the
backup egress from the "primary egress".
We will update the document accordingly as below:
"Note that protecting a primary egress of a P2P LSP carrying service
traffic through a backup egress requires that the backup egress make
sure that the "primary egress" sending the backup egress the information
on a service label as UA label through another protocol such as BGP is
the same primary egress to be protected."
