Personally, I am surprised that the WG is happy to go ahead in the face of an IPR disclosure where the license terms are not clear, but if they are OK with that then I am not about to demand that they stop implementing. |

Given some additional discussions I have had on this document, I am strongly leaning more towards Joel J.'s view of this document. It is not a framework, but it is also not a strong problem statement document. I am unclear what purpose this document will serve and I am not sure how it could be changed to make it worth publishing. I am curious about the sub-sections in section 5. There is discussion of how RBridges can learn the mappings via either a Push or Pull model (and the corresponding requirements) and what information should be in the directory. Was there discussion of adding a section discussing how the information gets placed in the directory (and the corresponding requirements)? Something to consider, but is more a curiosity on my part and definitely non-blocking. |

For this reader that term means an X.500 or LDAP like service, but I'm not at all clear if that's what's envisaged. - If an LDAP-like service is what is envisaged then I don't see how a push model can work. Perhaps if you delve deep enough into X.500 history there is a matching model with DSA replication though, not sure. That'd be very complex though. - If what's envisaged is for the TRILL WG to develop an entirely new directory service, then I think that should be seriously discussed with the applications area. I'm sure our apps ADs would take a keen interest were that to be the case. - Section 6 should IMO note the possibility that it may not be possible to follow this recommendation, that is, failure is a possible outcome. - The security considerations should note that any directory service would be a fine target to attack and could constitute a single point of failure. The current text all seems to be saying how good all this would be, which I don't think is right. - Managing access control in directories is always hard and that should be noted here. |

I am unclear what actions the working group is planning on doing on the basis of section 6. 6. Recommendation TRILL should provide a directory assisted approach. This document describes a basic framework for directory assistance to RBridge edge nodes. More detailed mechanisms will be described in a separate document or documents. The document appears to suggest implementing both mechanisms that it proposes, which is great I guess but normally I'd expect a document like this from a working group to arrive at a consensus solution instead of two of them. |

There are multiple interpretations of this including the WG not considering that the IPR applies, the WG not believing that the IPR is enforceable, the WG not having the issue properly exposed by the chairs. or the WG being happy to consider paying a license for their implementations. Given that one of the chairs is the IPR holder, the issue needs to be treated with a high degree of caution if for no other reason than to protect the chair against claims of abuse. The Shepherd write-up points to a fumble during WG last call, but suggests the issue was handled with an additional call for comments within the WG. The write-up also points at a slide from IETF-86. I found this at http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/86/slides/slides-86-trill-10.pdf The disclosure (which was initially made against the -05 version of the individual I-D, and later against the -04 version of the WG I-D) has never included licensing terms. Given that "IETF working groups prefer technologies with no known IPR claims or, for technologies with claims against them, an offer of royalty-free licensing" [RFC3979] I would like to understand the WG process that led to this document being sent for publication. I am sceptical that I am raising an issue that meets the IESG's Discuss criteria, but I would like to discuss the point (at least with the responsible AD) to understand that IETF process was followed sufficiently to warrant deviating from the general case described in RFC 3979. Then I will be able to move to No Objection with a clear conscience. |

Something like: > "It is optional whether or not an RBridge uses Push Directory > services, Pull Directory services, or some combination. It is optional > whether a Directory offers Push services, Pull services, or both." Thank you for the quick response! Donald also responded to my comment about collecting the text that compares and contrasts the Push and Pull models into one section, by saying that the working group hasn't agreed on what advice to give on when to Push and when to Pull, and that this is more appropriate for more detailed protocol specifications anyway. That makes sense to me. Perhaps it's worth pulling the partial description of advantages and disadvantages out of the framework doc now and including a more complete description as the working group consenses, but as before, this is not a blocking comment. |

Section 5 describes two models … [Ballot discuss] Very readable. Thanks for that. My Discuss is one question long, so I expect it's easy to clear. Section 5 describes two models of operation (Push and Pull): 5. Generic operation of Directory Assistance There are two different models for Directory assistance to edge RBridges: Push Model and Pull Model. The Directory Information is described in Section 5.1 below while Section 5.2 discusses Push Model requirements and Section 5.3 Pull Model requirements. I'm not seeing a statement about whether all RBridges (or at least all RBridges used with TRILL directories) are expected to support both models of operation. I'm reading 5.3 Pull Model and Requirements as saying "yes, at least some RBridges would support both", but I'm guessing (the text I'm looking at is). For RBridges with mapping entries being pushed from a directory server, they can be configured to use the Pull Model for targets which don't exist in the mapping data pushed. So, I'm asking if you can say anything helpful about that. Either "the answer depends" or "we don't need to say that in the framework document" could be fine answers, but I wanted to ask. |

Perhaps … [Ballot comment] I am finding some text that compares/contrasts the two models of operation, but it is scattered across the description of both models. Perhaps it would be more useful to the reader if this text could be collected into one section (perhaps a 5.4 "When to use each model of operation"). I don't know that any new text is needed - I'm asking about moving text like this, found in 5.2 Push Model and Requirements, However, the Push Model usually will push more entries of MAC&Label <-> Egress RBridge mapping to an edge RBridges than needed. Under the normal process of edge RBridge cache aging and unknown destination address flooding, rarely used mapping entries would have been removed. But it can be difficult for Directory Servers to predict the communication patterns among applications within one Data Label. Therefore, it is likely that the Directory Servers will push down all the MAC&Label entries if there are end stations in the Data Label attached to the edge RBridge. This is a disadvantage of the Push Model compared with the Pull Model described below. closer to text like this, found in 5.3 Pull Model and Requirements, One advantage of the Pull Model is that edge RBridges can age out MAC&Label entries if they haven't been used for a certain configured period of time or a period of time provided by the Directory. Therefore, each edge RBridge will only keep the entries that are frequently used, so its mapping table size will be smaller. Edge RBridges would query the Directory Server(s) for unknown MAC destination addresses in data frames or ARP/ND and cache the response. When end stations attached to remote edge RBridges rarely communicate with the locally attached end stations, the corresponding MAC&VLAN entries would be aged out from the RBridge's cache. As we say, not a blocking comment ... |

I don't believe the general sentiment behind this (that Informational documents don't have normative references) is true. I think normative references are those that must be understood in order to understand the document at hand, and that applies to documents of any status. I think it would be helpful if the authors should sort the references with that in mind. That said, this is a non-blocking comment. Please consider doing that sort, but there's no need to respond to this comment. |

Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2013-07-18. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract Edge TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) switches currently learn the mapping between MAC addresses and their egress TRILL switch by observing the data packets they ingress or egress or by the TRILL ESADI (End Station Address Distribution Information) protocol. When an ingress TRILL switch receives a data frame whose destination address (MAC&VLAN) that switch does not know, the data frame is flooded within the frame's VLAN across the TRILL campus. This document describes the framework for using directory services to assist edge RBridges in reducing multi-destination frames, particularly unknown unicast frames flooding, and ARP/ND, thus improving TRILL network scalability. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trill-directory-framework/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trill-directory-framework/ballot/ The following IPR Declarations may be related to this I-D: http://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/2007/ |

Why is this the proper type of RFC? Is this type of RFC indicated in the title page header? Informational as noted in the title page header. This is a broad overview of the idea for TRILL Directory Assistance. The WG consensus for this document indicates the TRILL WG intent to pursue this technical course as a method for the reduction of multi-destination traffic, but this document does not include protocol specifications. (2) The IESG approval announcement includes a Document Announcement Write-Up. Please provide such a Document Announcement Write-Up. Recent examples can be found in the "Action" announcements for approved documents. The approval announcement contains the following sections: Technical Summary: This document contains a brief overview of difficulties cause by multi-destination local network traffic, such as unicast frames where the location of the destination is unknown or ARP/ND packets, and a generic description of how to reduce such difficulties through the use of push and/or pull directories. Data Centers are frequently orchestrated by management software that maintains a directory of the applications, Virtual Machines, IP and MAC addresses in use and the switches to which they are attached. This makes directory assistance to edge switches a reasonable strategy for that case. Working Group Summary: The WG Last Call reviewers of this document include David Black, Sam Aldrin, Erik Nordmark, and Yizhou Li. Some of their comments suggested the removal of material not directly related to the main topic of the document as well as other improvements. Those suggestions were generally adopted. No parts of the draft were particularly contentious. Document Quality: The document is of good quality. David Black's review was particularly helpful and is very much appreciated. Personnel: Document Shepherd: Jon Hudson Responsible Area Director: Ted Lemon (3) Briefly describe the review of this document that was performed by the Document Shepherd. If this version of the document is not ready for publication, please explain why the document is being forwarded to the IESG. Several minor issues with clarity, grammar etc were found and corrected. The Document showed up in good shape and all major issues has been handled during earlier WG review. Overall the process went smoothly. (4) Does the document Shepherd have any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that have been performed? None. (5) Do portions of the document need review from a particular or from broader perspective, e.g., security, operational complexity, AAA, DNS, DHCP, XML, or internationalization? If so, describe the review that took place. No specific additional review required. (6) Describe any specific concerns or issues that the Document Shepherd has with this document that the Responsible Area Director and/or the IESG should be aware of? For example, perhaps he or she is uncomfortable with certain parts of the document, or has concerns whether there really is a need for it. In any event, if the WG has discussed those issues and has indicated that it still wishes to advance the document, detail those concerns here. The adoption and approval of this document as informational indicates WG approval of work to specify directory assistance mechanisms as an optional way to reduce multi-destination traffic in TRILL campuses. As a result, there are no specific concerns. (7) Has each author confirmed that any and all appropriate IPR disclosures required for full conformance with the provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79 have already been filed. If not, explain why? Yes. (8) Has an IPR disclosure been filed that references this document? If so, summarize any WG discussion and conclusion regarding the IPR disclosures. Yes, see IPR Disclosure 2007. This disclosure has been brought to the attention of the WG on many occasions, although it was initially omitted in the WG Last Call. It was mentioned in the call for the draft to be made a WG document (in that case, the same disclosure but against the earlier personal draft version), posted to the WG mailing list with an additional call for comments after the WG Last Call, and specifically presented at the TRILL WG meeting in Orlando at IETF-86 with a dedicated slide. (9) How solid is the WG consensus behind this document? Does it represent the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with others being silent, or does the WG as a whole understand and agree with it? There is a good consensus for this document. This is most likely due to extensive reviews, the resolution all comments in those reviews on the mailing list as well as multiple presentations and discussion at WG meetings. (10) Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme discontent? If so, please summarize the areas of conflict in separate email messages to the Responsible Area Director. (It should be in a separate email because this questionnaire is publicly available.) No. (11) Identify any ID nits the Document Shepherd has found in this document. (See http://www.ietf.org/tools/idnits/ and the Internet-Drafts Checklist). Boilerplate checks are not enough; this check needs to be thorough. None found. (12) Describe how the document meets any required formal review criteria, such as the MIB Doctor, media type, and URI type reviews. No formal review required. (13) Have all references within this document been identified as either normative or informative? Yes, although, as an Informational document, there are no Normative References. (14) Are there normative references to documents that are not ready for advancement or are otherwise in an unclear state? If such normative references exist, what is the plan for their completion? No. (15) Are there downward normative references references (see RFC 3967)? If so, list these downward references to support the Area Director in the Last Call procedure. No. (16) Will publication of this document change the status of any existing RFCs? This document does not change the status of any existing RFC. (17) Describe the Document Shepherd's review of the IANA considerations section, especially with regard to its consistency with the body of the document. This document requires no IANA actions. (18) List any new IANA registries that require Expert Review for future allocations. Provide any public guidance that the IESG would find useful in selecting the IANA Experts for these new registries. This document does not create any new IANA Registries. (19) Describe reviews and automated checks performed by the Document Shepherd to validate sections of the document written in a formal language, such as XML code, BNF rules, MIB definitions, etc. This document uses no formal languages requiring such validation. //////////////// |
