Subject: [Detnet] DetNet Data Plane Design Meeting Notes 9May18

From: "Grossman, Ethan A." <[email-masked]>

Agenda & discussion results of the working meeting are as follows:
- GitHub status: 3 updates happened
                - fixing typos: changes agreed, we get rid of local ID in the draft
                - aggregation: discussion on aggregation impact on PREF
  Comments for aggregation to be pasted as note in aggregation chapter.
                - OAM: text agreed, no GAL in the first version
- Terminology discussion:
- Split the term PREF in the draft into three functions: (1) PR replication, (2) PE elimination and (3) PROF packet reorder function.
- Use PRREF as collective name for all three functions (includes Replication and Re-ordering and Elimination Function)
- Time limiting of reordering function. Stewart to propose text.
- Continue to go through Stewart's detailed comments:
      - DetNet Bridging and Routing service: discussion on a better term for service than "bridging". G.8011 and MEF10.4 gives whole framework.
        RFC5828 to be considered as well.
      - Fig 6 Encap format for DetNet Bridging: CW to be added. (Discussion to call it "shim" or DetNet CW, agreed to call CW)
- 5.3.1 Do we need interworking function? Discussion result: Leave interworking in here and sort out later on.
- 6.3 D-CW size 28 bits vs 16. Agree must do 16, must do 28. Quiet on variable in this spec. If someone wants to add that, it will be a new spec.
- Bi-direc vs two uni-dir: Replace note about delete this section with rewrite this section. Agreed that we need this. Need text in 7.2 to make this clear.
- Section 8: Time sync: Agree this is longer discussion, need to continue next time.
- Next working meeting:
29th May: 8am Pacific (MPLS)
30th May: 7am Pacific. (IP)
- GitHub: After making a commit, do git pull, will also flag if merge is needed. Only Jouni can push to master, so unlikely to get clash.
