Atrjoh, I still think that the interop. statement of section 6.5.2 refers only to the fact that both PLR and the MP have to agree on supporting local revertive in order for the MP to respond to the PLR's attempts to resignal the TE LSP to the restored TE LSP. Note that the draft says that this signaling will be done through the backup TE LSP. IMO, the other interop. issue is whether / how both modes can be supported by the MP. The draft says the following: << It is recommended that one always use the globally revertive mode. Note that a link or node "failure" may be due to the facility being permanently taken out of service. Local revertive mode is optional. When used in combination, the global mode may rely solely on timers to do the reoptimization.>> If i'm reading this correctly, the MP may respond to the head-end LSR of each tunnel wrt. reoptimizing the TE LSPs that used the failed resource. But it can also respond to the PLR's initiative to switch the backup LSP to the protected TE LSP, if and only if, the MP and PLR support the local revertive. Authors, could you please provide some input? Rurick K.
