F3-WG-Issue-6: Benefits of Route Targets [Swadesh Agrawal]

[sa1231-coder]

• Chair + Keyur Patel + Swadesh Agrawal – Review F3-WG-issues-6 to generalize example.
• CT: Provide normative text and examples for non-agreeing color domains with examples on how transport class is used. This example should include the example in F3-WG-issue-6 – which includes attaching multiple RTs to be used in different color domains is not practical
• CAR: Provide normative text and examples for non-agreeing color domains. Normative may require the authors to add additional text. The examples should include the topology (similar or exactly like the topology above) with three color domains.

Section 2.8, 2.9.3 and Appendix B.3 describe the behavior, procedures and considerations for multiple color domains. This includes the rewrite of LCM at a color domain boundary peering.

Swadesh and DJ:

Thank you for the rewrite in sections 2.8, 2.9.3, and B.3.

Will you work with Keyur Patel to create a generalized example?

After we get the generalized example, we'll start WG List call on this topic with your text from -01.txt.

Cheers, Sue

Sue will review 2.8, 2.9.3, and B.3 on Thursday (6/1/23)

Review as of 6/4/2023 on car-01.

Section 2.8 - I do not have any issues.
Section 2.9.3 -

There are four places you indicate color exists:

1. CAR NLRI
2. Extended Community color
3. LCM Extended Community,
4. Tunnel Attribute - Color

You clear indicated that #4) Tunnel attribute is ignored for color. How does it impact filtering mentioned in section 2.9.3? Can it be used. Section 2.10 gives the ordering of these three color issues.

Since we did not get a generalized example, we will ask early reviewers to examine this in their review.

Waiting for the final upload prior to external review.
Think about error handling and filtering.
