The MPLS WG Archive

["Thomas D. Nadeau" <tnadeau@cisco.com>]

	I have a comment on draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-sig-requirement-00.txt.
The paragraph below seems to on the one hand, have no
requirements as is stated in the last paragraph, does
give a requirement. I suggest that this document simply
refer to draft-ietf-mpls-oam-requirements-05.txt, since the WG
agreed to include all MPLS OAM-related requirements in
this draft.

4.18 P2MP MPLS OAM

    Management of P2MP LSPs is as important as the management of P2P
    LSPs.

    The MPLS and GMPLS MIB modules MUST be enhanced to provide P2MP TE
    LSP management.

    In order to facilitate correct management, P2MP TE LSPs MUST have
    unique identifiers.

    OAM facilities will have special demands in P2MP environments
    especially within the context of tracing the paths and connectivity
    of P2MP TE LSPs. The precise requirements and mechanisms for OAM are
    out of the scope of this document. It is expected that a separate
    document will cover these requirements.
