  2. Updates • More description on why introduce the solution. • Detailed description on Framework and Procedures.

  3. Massive MPLS TE Configuration Issue in MBB Last Mile Access Aggregation Core BSC CSG • Typical Configurations: 66,000 command lines for MPLS TE configuration • 1,000 CSGs need to connect to one RSG • 3 types of bi-directional services. Each type of service needs one VPN and one TE • 10 command lines for typical MPLS TE tunnel configuration • The operation is not only time consuming but also prone to mis-configuration for Service Providers.

  4. Return Path Issue of BFD for LSP RNC/SGW/MME Last Mile Access Aggregation BTS/Node B IGP process1 BSC IGP process 2 TDM IMA ETH STM-1 STM-1 Node B FE GE ATM RNC RSG CSG GE Return Path IP RNC/S-GW/MME • Return Path Issue for BFD: When BFD for LSP is deployed, the return path may take IP path which is different from the forwarding path. The failure that happens in the return path may trigger wrong traffic switch. • Configuration to guarantee the return path to be co-routed will deteriorate the configuration issue: explicit path and tunnel binding. • Static Configuration Issue: if the forward path changes, the return path may not change accordingly.

  5. Upgrading Issue of Co-routed Bidirectional LSP RNC/SGW/MME Last Mile Access Aggregation BTS/Node B BSC STM-1 TDM IMA ETH STM-1 Node B ATM RNC GE FE GE CSG RSG IP RNC/S-GW/MME • Upgrading Issue from GMPLS Co-routed Bidirectional LSP: • The unidirectional MPLS TE LSP has been deployed widely and it is difficult for the service provider to upgrade all possible routers to support co-routed bidirectional LSPs.

  6. Service-driven Co-routed MPLS TE LSP • Topology-Driven: LDP LSP: LSP. • LSP can setup automatically to save much effort and achieve higher scalability. • Service-Driven: MPLS TE LSP • MPLS TE LSPs always co-exist with the service (L2VPN/L3VPN) beared by these LSPs • Service-driven is a natural way to setup LSP on demand. It can save the unnecessary LSP setup comparing with topology-driven method. • Only the edge nodes are involved.

  7. Service-Driven Co-Routed Unidirectional LSPs for L3VPN Tunnel Signaled Tunnel Information Active PE PE1 Passive PE PE2 Last Mile Access Aggregation RNC/SGW/MME BTS/Node B TDM IMA ETH E2E L3VPN BSC STM-1 FE GE STM-1 Node B Scenarios CSG RSG ATM RNC 0. VPN Member Auto-Discovery GE Procedures Active/passive role election IP RNC/S-GW/MME PE1's L3VPN drives RSVP-TE to Create TE LSP: LSP1 PE2 waits for Tunnel info advertised from PE1 MPLS TE LSP setup from PE1 to PE2 PE1 advertises LSP1 Tunnel info to PE2 through L3VPN signaling PE2 gets Tunnel info from PE1, Create TE LSP (eg. LSP2) according to RRO information of LSPl, Binds LSP1 and LSP2 for L3VPN; MPLS TE LSP setup from PE2 to PE1 PE2 advertises LSP2 Tunnel info to PE1 PE1 binds LSP1 and LSP2 for L3VPN; Co-routed TE LSP Established

  8. Summary • Service-driven co-routed MPLS TE LSP has following advantages: • Setup LSP on demand and save massive configuration effort: • 33 command lines vs. 66,000 command lines. • Guarantee co-routed for the forwarding path and return path and be able to change dynamically • Reuse current mechanism instead of whole network upgrading. • Auto Mesh Group (RFC4972) • IGP-based Solution: the internal nodes are involved unnecessarily.

  9. Next Steps • Solicit more comments and feedback • More scenarios will be taken into account • Determine which WG to move forward: MPLS/L3VPN/L2VPN/CCAMP
