Subject: [72attendees] FSA signalling issues

I gave a talk at Dublin in the Transport Area Open meeting. The subject was developments
at the ITU-T on Flow State Aware (FSA) standardisation.
 
A question raised at the IETF was (roughly) "why isn't a new extension of RSVP being proposed
to accommodate the requirements of FSA signalling?"
 
I attach an intial response to that question in the form of an issues list that will also be proposed as
a new Appendix of the draft ITU Recommendation Q.flowstatesig. The conclusions of this first
analysis are that:
- it is an aim that we try our hardest to fit within the preferred architectural framework of RSVP
- however there are a number of challenging issues and, since that is the case, the preferred approach
   is to keep other options open.
 
Please get back to me with issues that will help the continued progress of FSA at the next IETF
 
Regards,
 
John
