IESG Note

IESG注释

The IESG notes that the IETF has developed a set of OAM tools for MPLS-TP that have been published as Standards Track RFCs. A list of the relevant RFCs can be found in RFC 6669. The approval of this document and the assignment of an ACh Type does not constitute endorsement by the IETF of the alternate MPLS-TP OAM documented in G.8113.1. The IESG recommends instead that the RFCs noted above should be implemented.

IESG指出,IETF为MPLS-TP开发了一套OAM工具,这些工具已作为标准跟踪RFC发布。相关RFC列表可在RFC 6669中找到。本文件的批准和ACh类型的分配不构成IETF对G.8113.1中记录的替代MPLS-TP OAM的认可。IESG建议实施上述RFC。

1. Introduction
1. 介绍

The Transport Profile of MPLS (MPLS-TP) defined in [RFC5654] is a profile of MPLS technology for use in packet transport networks. The MPLS-TP profile includes a set of Operations, Administration, and Management (OAM) tools defined by the IETF [RFC6669] that are used to meet the OAM functional requirements defined in [RFC5860].

[RFC5654]中定义的MPLS传输配置文件(MPLS-TP)是用于分组传输网络的MPLS技术配置文件。MPLS-TP配置文件包括一组由IETF[RFC6669]定义的操作、管理和管理(OAM)工具,用于满足[RFC5860]中定义的OAM功能需求。

ITU-T Recommendation [G.8113.1] documents MPLS-TP OAM. This Recommendation builds upon Ethernet OAM as documented in [Y.1731]. The messages in [G.8113.1] are defined to be carried in a new Generic Associated Channel (G-ACh) Type in the MPLS Generic Associated Channel. In order to carry these messages in an interoperable fashion, a Generic Associated Channel Type from the IANA maintained registry "Pseudowire Associated Channel Types" is to be used.

ITU-T建议[G.8113.1]记录了MPLS-TP OAM。本建议以[Y.1731]中记录的以太网OAM为基础。[G.8113.1]中的消息定义为在MPLS通用关联信道中的新通用关联信道(G-ACh)类型中传输。为了以可互操作的方式传送这些消息,将使用IANA维护的注册表“伪线关联通道类型”中的通用关联通道类型。

To fulfill the request from ITU-T SG15 in [LS370] and to allow deployment of the [G.8113.1] OAM solution without using an experimental G-ACh Type, IANA has assigned a G-ACh Type <0x8902> for use by the ITU-T for [G.8113.1]. This G-ACh Type is known as the "G.8113.1 OAM G-ACh Type".

为了满足[LS370]中ITU-T SG15的请求,并允许在不使用实验性G-ACh类型的情况下部署[G.8113.1]OAM解决方案,IANA已为[G.8113.1]分配了一个G-ACh类型<0x8902>,供ITU-T使用。这种G-ACh类型被称为“G.8113.1 OAM G-ACh类型”。

A number of experts in the IETF do not consider that the development or deployment of a second protocol solution within the same architectural problem space is necessary or advisable [RFC6670].

IETF中的许多专家不认为在相同的架构问题空间内开发或部署第二协议解决方案是必要的或可取的[RFC670]。

2. Conventions Used in This Document

2.1. Requirements Notation
2.1. 需求符号

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

本文件中的关键词“必须”、“不得”、“必需”、“应”、“不应”、“应”、“不应”、“建议”、“可”和“可选”应按照[RFC2119]中所述进行解释。

3. Scope of the G.8113.1 OAM G-ACh Type
3. G.8113.1 OAM G-ACh类型的范围

The G-ACh Type assigned by this document MUST only be used for OAM messages, as defined in the ITU-T Recommendation [G.8113.1], carried in the G-ACh. The OAM messages and procedures carried behind this G-ACh Type are restricted to only those that address the OAM functional requirements defined in [RFC5860]. Other message types MUST NOT be carried behind this G-ACh Type.

根据ITU-T建议[G.8113.1]中的定义,本文件分配的G-ACh类型只能用于G-ACh中携带的OAM消息。此G-ACh类型背后携带的OAM消息和过程仅限于满足[RFC5860]中定义的OAM功能需求的消息和过程。此G-ACh类型后面不得携带其他消息类型。

   All ITU-T Recommendations are subject to updates by errata,
   corrigenda, amendments, or complete revisions.  In any update of
   [G.8113.1], the G-ACh Type assigned by this document MUST NOT be used
   for any functions not identified as OAM functional requirements in
   [RFC5860].  An update of [G.8113.1] may use the G-ACh Type assigned
   by this document to support the OAM functions identified in
   [RFC5860].  When an amendment or complete revision of G.8113.1 is
   approved, the reference to [G.8113.1], provided in this document,
   should be updated to show the approval date of the new version.

   should be updated to show the approval date of the new version.
        

The G-ACh Type assigned by this document may be used on any transport construct that uses the G-ACh, e.g., MPLS-TP Sections, MPLS-TP LSPs, or PWs as described in [G.8113.1].

本文件指定的G-ACh类型可用于使用G-ACh的任何传输结构,如[G.8113.1]中所述的MPLS-TP段、MPLS-TP LSP或PWs。

4. Security Considerations
4. 安全考虑

As noted in [RFC5586], when new G-ACh Types are defined, the "security considerations MUST be described in the relevant associated channel type specification". The IETF takes this opportunity to remind the ITU-T of the need to describe security considerations in [G.8113.1].

如[RFC5586]所述,当定义新的G-ACh类型时,“必须在相关的信道类型规范中说明安全注意事项”。IETF借此机会提醒ITU-T需要在[G.8113.1]中描述安全注意事项。

5. IANA Considerations
5. IANA考虑

IANA maintains the "Pseudowire Associated Channel Types" sub-registry of the "Pseudowire Name Spaces (PWE3)" registry.

IANA维护“伪线名称空间(PWE3)”注册表的“伪线关联通道类型”子注册表。

IANA has allocated a new G-ACh Type as follows:

IANA分配了一种新的G-ACh类型,如下所示:

      Value        Description              TLV Follows  Reference
      -----------  -----------------------  -----------  ---------
      0x8902       G.8113.1 OAM             No           [RFC6671]
