Hi Loa and Authors,

                                  I have reviewed this document.  It is short document with a simple extension. It is useful and technically sound. I think the document is ready for WG adoption.

Thanks,

Pranjal

Eric, Lizhong, Pranjal and Eric,

You have be selected as MPLS-RT reviewers for draft-raza-mpls- oam-ipv6-rao.

Note to authors: You have been CC'd on this email so that you can know that this review is going on. However, please do not review your own document.

Reviews should comment on whether the document is coherent, is it useful (ie, is it likely to be actually useful in operational networks), and is the document technically sound?  We are interested in knowing whether the document is ready to be considered for WG adoption (ie, it doesn't have to be perfect at this point, but should be a good start).

Reviews should be sent to the document authors, WG co-chairs and WG secretary, and CC'd to the MPLS WG email list. If necessary, comments may be sent privately to only the WG chairs.

If you have technical comments you should try to be explicit about what

*really* need to be resolved before adopting it as a working group document, and what can wait until the document is a working group document and the working group has the revision control.

Are you able to review this draft by Oct 1, 2014? Please respond in a

timely fashion.

Thanks, Loa

(as MPLS WG chair)

  This draft is a work item of the Multiprotocol Label Switching Working Group of the IETF.

         Title           : IPv6 Router Alert Option for MPLS OAM

         Authors         : Kamran Raza

                           Nobo Akiya

                           Carlos Pignataro

      Filename        : draft-raza-mpls-oam-ipv6-rao-01.txt

      Pages           : 5

Abstract:

    RFC4379 defines the MPLS LSP Ping/Traceroute mechanism, in which the

    Router Alert option must be set in the IP header of the MPLS Echo

    Request messages, and may conditionally be set in the IP header of

    the MPLS Echo Reply messages.  While a generic "Router shall examine

    packet" Option Value is used for the IPv4 Router Alert Option (RAO),

    there is no generic Router Alert Option Value defined for IPv6 that

    can be used.  This document allocates a new generic IPv6 Router Alert

    Option Value that can be used by MPLS OAM tools, including the MPLS

    Echo Request and MPLS Echo Reply messages for MPLS IPv6.

    The initial motivation to request an IPv6 Router Alert Option (RAO)

    code point for MPLS OAM comes from MPLS LSP Ping/Traceroute.

    However, this codepoint is applicable to all MPLS OAM and not limited

    to MPLS LSP Ping/Traceroute.
