Handling MPLS-TP OAM Packets Targeted at Internal MIPs draft-farrel-mpls-tp-mip-mep-map-03 A. Farrel, H. Endo, R. Winter
MIP types (as per OAM fmwk) • Per node MIPs • Resides in an uspecified location within the node • Per interface MIPs • Resides on the interfaces • Up-MIP & Down-MIP ------------------------ | | |----- -----| | MIP | | MIP | | | ---- | | ----->-| In |->-| XC |->-| Out |->---- | i/f | ---- | i/f | |----- -----| | | ------------------------ TTL expiry alone is not enough („addresses the node“)
Things we thought about... • Use TTL field in GAL to address per-interface MIP • GAL an PWs still in discussion • Does not work for P2MP case to address one out of many interfaces • One solution for all TP constructs (P2P, P2MP) is desirable -------------------------- | | | -----| | | MIP | | ->-| |->---- | | | Out | | | | i/f | | | -----| |----- | -----| | MIP | ---- | | MIP | | | | |- | | ----->-| In |->-| XC |--->-| Out |->---- | i/f | | |- | i/f | |----- ---- | -----| | | -----| | | | MIP | | | | | | ->-| Out |->---- | | i/f | | -----| --------------------------
Solution (LSP) No forwarding beyond this node ----------------- | Label=x | TTL=1 |--- |-----------------| | | GAL | TTL=m | | |-----------------| | | ACH Type = OAM | | ----------------- | <------ ------------------ | Label=x | TTL=1 |--- |------------------| | | GAL | TTL=m | | |------------------| | | ACH Type = OAM | | |------------------| | |ACH TLV=in/out-MIP| | ------------------ | <------ This is OAM Per node MIP/ In-MIP OAM type IN-MIP/ Out-MIP OAM recipient
Solution (PW) ------------------ | Label=x | TTL=1 |--- |------------------| | | PWACH Type = OAM | | ------------------ | <------ ------------------ | Label=x | TTL=1 |--- |------------------| | | PWACH Type = OAM | | |------------------| | |ACH TLV=in/out-MIP| | ------------------ | <------
Future • Open Issues • What if a packet with TTL=0 manages to leave a node? • Where should this work go • Stay where it is • Move to another document (identifiers draft) • Bin • Feedback welcome • Some received
