Subject: [PCN] PCN (Pre-Congestion Notification) draft charter

=20

We are hoping to organize a BOF on PCN (pre-congestion notification) at
the next IETF. Some of us have now put together a first draft of a
Charter - below. We'd very much appreciate your comments and suggestions
- for instance: is the scope right? Is the range of deployment models
ok? Is it a reasonable set of milestones and are the timescales ok?

=20

We're now working on a Problem Statement draft.=20

Thanks.

PCN Draft Charter (Pre-Congestion Notification)

=20

The PCN BOF (WG) will tackle the problem of how to provide scalable,
resilient admission control and strong QoS assurance while using packet
marking techniques. Current attempts to deliver QoS using only packet
marking (e.g. DiffServ) are limited in the level of QoS assurance that
can be provided without substantial over-provisioning. To improve the
QoS assurance, PCN will add flow admission control and flow pre-emption.
In normal circumstances admission control should protect the QoS of
previously admitted flows. In times of heavy congestion (for example
caused by route changes due to link or router failure) pre-emption of
some flows should preserve the QoS of remaining flows.

=20

The initial scope of the BOF (WG) is the use of PCN within a single
DiffServ region. The overall approach will be based on a separation of
functionality between the interior routers and edge nodes of the
DiffServ region. Interior routers mark packet headers when their traffic
is above a certain level, as an early warning of incipient congestion
("pre-congestion"); this builds on concepts from RFC 3168 "The Addition
of Explicit Congestion Notification to IP". Edge nodes of the DiffServ
Region monitor the markings and that information is used to make flow
admission control and pre-emption decisions. The decisions could be made
by the edge nodes or by a centralised system (which is informed of the
edge nodes' measurements).=20

=20

The WG will address the following specific problems and develop
standards track solutions to them:

*                     When should an interior router mark a packet (i.e.
at what traffic level) in order to give early warning of its own
congestion?

*                     How should such a mark be encoded in a packet (in
the ECN and/or DSCP fields)?

*                     How should these markings (at packet granularity)
be converted into admission control and flow pre-emption decisions (at
flow granularity)?

=20

To support this, the WG will work on the following Informational
documents:

*                     a Problem Statement, to describe the problems the
group is tackling and the assumptions made

*                     at least two deployment models, initially to help
focus the problem statement and later to check that the solutions being
developed satisfy the deployment scenario. Possible deployment models
may be:=20

o        IntServ over DiffServ (RFC2998): the DiffServ region is
PCN-enabled and its edge nodes decide about admission and flow
pre-emption

o        SIP-controlled PCN: routers within the DiffServ region are
PCN-capable and trusted SIP endpoints (gateway or host) perform
admission and flow pre-emption =20

o        Pseudowire: PCN may be used as a congestion avoidance mechanism
for end-user deployed pseudowires (collaborate with the PWE3 WG)

*                      a generic analysis of the signalling extensions
required to support PCN. Note that extensions/enhancements to specific
signalling protocols (e.g. RSVP, NSIS, SIP) will not be done in the PCN
WG.

*                     at least one example solution implementing the
framework and its performance evaluation (e.g. simulation results), to
provide evidence of the viability of the proposed standard in the
proposed deployment models

*                     an analysis of the tradeoffs of different encoding
possibilities (e.g. ECN and DCSP marking)

=20

The initial scope of the WG will restrict the problem space in the
following ways:

*                     By assuming the PCN-enabled Internet Region is a
controlled environment, i.e. all the interior routers and edge nodes of
the region run PCN and trust each other

*                     By assuming there are many flows on any bottleneck
link in the PCN-enabled region=20

*                     By focusing on the QoS assurance required by real
time applications generating inelastic traffic like voice and video
requiring low delay, jitter and packet loss, i.e. as defined by the
Controlled Load  Service [RFC2211].=20

=20

Subsequent re-chartering may investigate solutions for when some of
these restrictions are not in place.=20

=20

Topics out of scope for the WG include a general investigation of
admission control mechanisms.

=20

The WG will draw on the substantial prior academic and IETF work on
measurement-based admission control.=20

Hi,

GIST (draft-ietf-nsis-ntlp) specifies some IANA managed registries where 
the policy is expert review. The expert will review any registration 
requests in those registries (and value ranges) that are under this 
policy to ensure that requests are following the rules for these 
registries and are sensible. It important that the expert reviewer can 
perform these requests in a timely manner. For more information on the 
role of IANA designated experts, see RFC 2434.

So if you have the necessary skills for this role and are interested in 
volunteering please send me an email before the 25th of September.

Best Regards

Magnus Westerlund

Hi all,

There are 6 open issues on the NSIS QoS NSLP.  We need to resolve these.
If we don't have any comments by Friday, I will ask Jukka to update the
document and will send the document to the IESG.

thanks,
John

Hi all,

Basically we are only missing a few clarifications here and there, and a 
re-write of the IANA Considerations section. Then we are done. My current 
version "12-pre2", and a diff can be found at:

http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/jmanner/qos-nslp/

The two major changes done were the new so-called Proxy Mode, and the QoS
NSLP now provides a bit to tell whether all nodes on the path supported
the reservation, or not, e.g., some nodes might have been totally NSIS
unaware.

Jukka

Dear all,

As expressed by the message Luis Cordeiro sent in the beginning of
September, we are organizing a NSIS Interoperability Event in Coimbra,
Portugal on the 12 and 13 of October.

If you are interested in participating, please send me your confirmation
until 15 of September. Please contact me for any details about the Interop,
since Luis Cordeiro will be on vacations until the end of September.

Looking forward to welcome you in Coimbra,

Marilia Curado

Here's a DISCUSS from Jari about GIST.  Robert is traveling, but it
would be good to discuss this in the WG to find out ways to address his

Hi,

I have a few questions on the QoS NSLP draft.

A RESPONSE is sent to a QUERY containing an RII object. The INFO
object is mandatory. Which value does it contain, when no error
situation occured?

A refresh along the path contains a RII object. When do I send
refreshes peer to peer and when refreshes along the path? Are only
refreshes with a RII object answered by a RESPONSE?

When no reservation state is installed at a QNE, does it make
sense to process a RESERVE with set T-Flag and forward it?

A RESPONSE usually contains a RII object that the quering node
does not forward it further along the path. A NOTIFY which is
sent in response of a RESERVE with set Q-Flag could be sent
further along the path by the quering node, if the QNI didn't
request reduced refreshes but a QNE did. Would a RESPONSE make
sense here?

Bernd

Hi Bernd et al.

Please see in line.

Maybe a QoS Specific error code.

In the introduction we see:

	"...The design of QoS NSLP is conceptually similar to RSVP, RFC 2205 [RFC2205], and uses soft-state peer-to-peer refresh messages as the primary state management mechanism (i.e., state installation/refresh is performed between pairs of adjacent NSLP nodes, rather than in an end-to-end fashion along the complete signaling path)..."

and in section 4.3.4 we can read:

	"...This peer-to-peer refreshing (as opposed to the QNI initiating a refresh which travels all the way to the QNR) allows QNEs to choose refresh intervals..."


With this I mean that peer to peer refreshing is much more useful and I don't see where should we use refreshes along the path. About the second question I would say yes.


>

I think so because this might happen due to some re-routing and we still 
want to tear down the old branches.

I think that the NOTIFY message should be sent only to the immediate 
upstream peer, much like the RESPONSE sent to the ACK flag on the last 
version of the draft. With this we only answer the upstream node that 
really asked for the reduced refresh.

RII is only used in special cases when you might want a refreshto go all 
the way, the default refresh is p2p.

Say your router rebooted, and lost the state. Just after reboot, it gets a 
tear for a session it was supposed to have. Thus, it should just forward 
the message further downstrea, otherwise the reservations will not be 
removed on other nodes downstream.

The NOTIFY includes an INFO_SPEC that tells the result of the request. It
should be sent to the immediate peer from where the RESERVE came, which
does not forward it further.

The problem with the 'single outstanding D-mode' is that this is  
likely extremely conservative, given that the sender won't  
necessarily know where the next hop terminates, so all of these  
messages could easily traverse different first and/or second hops.

AIMD has the same problem, since the destination path to the next hop  
is unknown and feedback won't arrive until it is too late. You'll  
only be sending one message in D-mode, usually, so there's nothing to  
ramp up.

I will note that GIST isn't any more congesting than, say, DNS -  
generally, one end-to-end transaction per application start (ignoring  
local caching). It would be pretty difficult to rate-control DNS for  
that same reason.

Henning

Hi all !

I have some questions about routing in NTLP. As we know  there are two major
functions in NTLP: (1) Routing. (2) Transport.

I have read the implementation code of nsis-0.4.0. And I know that the
function of "Transport" is implementd by the GistMAEntry class, which uses
the socket classes provided in ../library/socket.

however, I have been very confused on the "Routing" function. I don't know
how it is being realized. And I realized there are many library files in
..\library\libxorp. Further more, I don't understand this words " Incoming
messages are fetched from the socket by callbacks called by
XORP(socket_events.cpp) ". What is the role of XORP as it here? how does
XORP and GIST work together?

I am looking forward someone can reply to my questions. Thank u very much!

Bestwishes!

Hi,

 

your question is not related to the specification of GIST/NSIS. Instead, you refer to the

NSIS implementation of the University of Goettingen. Therefore, you should use a different 

mailing list as instructed in the README file of the implementation.

 

Please see http://user.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/~nsis/help.html

for the correct mailing list. I will be happy to help you there.

 

Thank you for your interest.

 

Christian Dickmann

Hi,

You should point your question to the NSIS Implementation mailist list.=20
This nsis@ietf.org list is for discussions about the standardization=20
work on the protocol suite, not about specific implementations.

Hello,

In response to the message below I would like to point out that the ID
http://tools.ietf.org/wg/nsis/draft-pashalidis-nsis-gist-legacynats-00.t
xt=20
addresses (at least some of) the issues that are raised in that message.
That is, the ID contains a description of how GIST nodes can discover
the
existence of legacy NAT(s) and how to cope with them.=20

Best Regards,
Andreas

Here's a DISCUSS from Jari about GIST.  Robert is traveling, but it
would be good to discuss this in the WG to find out ways to address his

right - I only included the "single outstanding D-mode" case as one  
possible solution.

It may be true that usually there is only one D-mode message, but the  
document doesn't currently place any such restriction on D-mode. If  
it said "send only the query in Q-mode, use C-mode for everything  
else that follows", that'd be significantly better. My concern is  
based on the document not placing any restrictions on how frequently  
D-mode messages can be sent and how large they can be.

Agreed, but see above.

Given that the major point of NSIS is to avoid re-inventing TCP, maybe 
the best solution would indeed be to call out this restriction, i.e., 
that D-mode SHOULD only be used once (and after route changes).

A few additional comments on the discuss.

First, I've been told that many of my architectural questions about
changing IP packets as they traverse the network are handled in the
NSIS framework.  That's on my reading list probably for late this
week.


Second, I realize that the situation  for multiple responses is more complicated than I thought.

It turns out that what happens to the original query falls off a
disconnect between section 4.3.1 and 4.4.1 Section 4.3.1 tells us that
we're going to 4.4.1 if we are a GIST peer that actually wants to
become involved in the signaling.

We know from 3.7 that the query packet we received will be forwarded
and will make its way to the end node.

However 4.4.1 does not discuss this forwarding.  Who does the response
go to?  Is the MRI updated to point to us, or is the MRI left
unchanged so that all responses go to the querying node?

It turns out this is important to understand my comment about multiple
responses.

John Loughney needs support in chairing the NSIS WG.

http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/nsis-charter.html

Therefore we are looking for volunteers interested in be a co-chair with 
John. The WG is currently trying to finish up a number of documents. So 
the major part of the work is to help ensure that issues are closed, 
updates made timely, sufficient review is performed and help progress 
the documents through the publication process. Please note that the 
position is commitment that takes a number of hours every week and the 
need for participating in the IETF meetings when the WG is meeting. So 
please ensure that you have support for that commitment before volunteering.

If you are interested please send a response to me and John and include 
the following information:
- Name
- Affiliation
- Major accomplishments and official positions within IETF. Please note 
that there are no requirement to had held any previous WG chair position 
etc.

Please send your response at the latest the 2nd of October.

cheers

Hi Sam,

I'll try to address this multiple responses issue specifically,
and come back to the rest of the discuss in another mail.
The situation here should be relatively simple, but it's possible
that the current text has misleading aspects. 

The basic concept is that each Query gets one Response. The Response
gets sent to the node that sent the Query (the node address comes
from the NLI object in the Query message); the two nodes, Querying
and Responding, are the two ends of a single GIST hop. Along an
end-to-end path, there will likely be multiple GIST hops; for each
of them, there is a Query/Response exchange which is local to that
hop. The MRI is not changed along the path.

GIST is basically ignorant of the fact that there are multiple hops
chained together in this way; linking up the hops to provide an 
end-to-end signalling exchange is carried out at the signalling
application level (e.g. the forwarding referred to in section 3.7
step 5 is done at that level) - a single Query itself does not travel
end to end. Each hop is initiated by signalling application on the
node trying to send a message; GIST then carries out a local Query/
Response to get to the next node.

Most of the details of the process are in section 4.3. The 
complications arise from the rules about when a node decides that
it is going to be the other end of a hop, i.e. when it decides to
send a Response to an intercepted Query. There are 3 cases:
- node is completely uninterested; the Query is forwarded (4.3.4)
- the signalling application inspects the Query payload but the node
  decides not to become the end of a hop; the Query is forwarded 
  (4.3.2 case 2)
- the signalling application inspects the Query payload and decides
  to peer; a Response is sent (4.3.2 case 1; 4.4.1 then describes
  the details of how the peering process continues)

(There are subtleties in the case of error conditions, but the
fundamental behaviour above is preserved.)

Is this explanation going in the right direction to address your
concern? Or have I misunderstood it?

cheers,

Robert H.

ps. responses may be delayed by travelling

Is this the seed of a solution?

I know there will be people who want to use D-mode more
extensively; however, they want to do so in environments
where they can engineer capacity for the signalling
traffic (don't know if that is worth adding as a rider
to the SHOULD).

In terms of the other ideas that have come up in previous
mails, I still find it very hard to work out how an 
adaptive scheme could work for the Query/Response traffic,
since, as Henning says, there is nothing on which to build
up any information about the congestion state of the 
network. Restricting the number of outstanding D mode messages
opens up a trivial DoS attack (signal for a flow whose
endpoint silently eats Query messages; the Querying node
will have to time out waiting for answers). 

I still think it is necessary to consider some kind of
rate control discussion for the route change/peer failure 
case. These events could trigger a GIST node to Query for
all its flows, and that has to be capped in some way. The
current text sizes the token bucket on router interface
capacity; #sessions is another possibility (in fact, the
original proposal). They are all equally non-bulletproof,
albeit in different ways. Or do people want the token bucket 
stuff out altogether?

cheers,

r.

Stating exceptions ("known network capacity") is certainly helpful.

I think this mostly offers the illusion of safety, while adding more  
"tweak" parameters that cause unpleasant surprises when they are set  
wrong, but forgotten. (Suddenly, voice calls fail after re-routes  
because somebody didn't update the parameter after upgrading the T1  
to an OC-12.)

Also, fixed ratios and such can't take into account that reservation  
messages may have different importance in different networks. If I  
run a corporate network where voice is most important, I will want  
the reservation messages to go through pronto, even if they  
temporarily reduce the web bandwidth.

Adding buckets and the like also introduces strange failure modes, if  
messages are queued or dropped, causing upstream retransmissions or  
duplicate messages as the queue empties.

There's probably a reasonable limit per-flow for resource  
reservation, such as not sending more than the bandwidth you'd like  
to reserve, but even that's complicated (over what time horizon?) and  
doesn't help much if message-triggering events are synchronized.

One piece of useful advice we can and should give, I think, is to  
tell people to space error-induced re-attempts N seconds (where N is  
some reasonable number, such as 5), rather than trying to grab  
bandwidth, say, by continuously sending messages.

Personally, I see it has highly implausible that any well-behaved  
NSIS application would cause problems, compared to other non-rate- 
controlled streams such as UDP games and audio. Not-so-well-behaved  
NSIS, like any other such application, won't give a [bleep] about  
fancy algorithms.

Jari, all,

I think there is probably an issue here which can be fixed.

A little background: during the development of the spec, we have
steadfastly avoided trying to address the problem of getting NSIS
to work through legacy NATs. That's at least partly because it
seems like a nearly impossible problem, and also a major activity
even to analyse all the cases (although Andreas' draft is a very
promising approach).

However, there has been a baby/bathwater effect, in that we don't
talk about how to 'fail safely' when we encounter a legacy NAT.
Actually I think the protocol can already be implemented to do
this, but the relevant guidance is not explicit. Here is how I
always assumed it would be done, taking the path coupled MRM 
(actually the hardest one) as an example:

=================================================================

case 1: querying node on the internal side of the NAT

Here, the initial Query is sent from the flow source address, but
the NLI will contain the Querying node address. Both will be 
'private' (internal side) addresses, and usually they will be
different (S=0 in the common header). The IP source address will
be translated but not the NLI. The consequence is that the
Response will be sent to a meaningless internal address and
probably not even make it out of the node in the first place.
It certainly won't make it back to the Querying node. There
are then two subcases:

a) retransmitted Queries also have S=0. None will get replies.
Eventually the Querying node will give up and believe it is
the last GIST node on the path - which is essentially correct
behaviour.

b) some retransmitted Queries have S=1, so the Querying node
address is used as the signalling source address (this is what
the spec says SHOULD happen). Now the Responding node will 
be able to compare the NLI and IP source and see they are 
different where they should be the same. At this point it
should send an error; a good possibility is code 9 subcode
4 (untranslated object), although maybe a dedicated error
would be better. the Error will be routable towards the NAT
since it now has a valid destination address. there are then 
two further subcases:

i) the NAT is unable to forward the message (note that the
IP source address of the incoming message does not match
the IP destination of the outgoing one, so some types of 
NAT will I guess discard it). Same as case (a) above.

ii) the NAT is able to forward the message. The Querying node
will receive the error and give up immediately, so it is the
same result as case (a) but more prompt.

case 2: querying node on the external side of the NAT

here, I am not sure how much detail to go into, since the
processing depends so much on how the NAT has been configured.
But basically, if the Query gets through, the Response can
be correctly routed back through the NAT relatively easily.
However, the S flag will always be set on the Response
and the Querying node will detect that a NAT has been 
traversed and can give up again.

========================================================

This is not the whole story (there are several corner cases).
However, it would strike me as a reasonable approach. If we
cannot get the messages correctly through the NAT, the only
solution is to give up, which the above procedures do
fairly rapidly. More generally, rather than 'give up', 
the solution could be 'invoke some legacy NAT traversal
mechanism' but I think that would best be defined in separate
documents. Note also that if the MRI doesn't include addressing
information, it is actually possible to operate perfectly
through a legacy NAT following the above procedures, and that 
could also be made more explicit.

Should text along these lines be included in the draft? Is
more functionality required than this minimal level?

cheers,

robert h.

Hi Robert and Henning  

Regarding the D-mode, yes we are using it 
extensively in the RMD-QOSM, which is applied in environments where 
we can engineer the capacity of the signaling traffic.

Best Regards,
Georgios

Is this the seed of a solution?

I know there will be people who want to use D-mode more extensively;
however, they want to do so in environments where they can engineer capacity
for the signalling traffic (don't know if that is worth adding as a rider to
the SHOULD).

In terms of the other ideas that have come up in previous mails, I still
find it very hard to work out how an adaptive scheme could work for the
Query/Response traffic, since, as Henning says, there is nothing on which to
build up any information about the congestion state of the network.
Restricting the number of outstanding D mode messages opens up a trivial DoS
attack (signal for a flow whose endpoint silently eats Query messages; the
Querying node will have to time out waiting for answers). 

I still think it is necessary to consider some kind of rate control
discussion for the route change/peer failure case. These events could
trigger a GIST node to Query for all its flows, and that has to be capped in
some way. The current text sizes the token bucket on router interface
capacity; #sessions is another possibility (in fact, the original proposal).
They are all equally non-bulletproof, albeit in different ways. Or do people
want the token bucket stuff out altogether?

cheers,

r.

Agreed -- I certainly do not require you to design the NAT
traversal so that this would actually WORK. All that is
needed from my perspective is the ability fail gracefully
and without causing damage to others.

But I have a question about your procedure. Does it allow
the response to be sent to the by-mistake-not-translated
address? I think it would be better if you didn't do that, and
actually detected when translation has occurred.

I'd be happy with this approach.

Adding a recommendation that more extensive use of D-mode (than the  
above) SHOULD only be considered together with provisioned capacity  
for signaling seems like a good idea.

Is that attack actually possible?  There isn't any verification of  
whether a packet comes from a valid source?

I don't see how the token buffer could be made to work based on  
interface capacity. Could you elaborate a bit on the original  
proposal that was based on the number of sessions?

Thanks,
Lars

it depends on what's in your armoury of NAT detection mechanisms.
if the only method is comparison between header addresses and
addresses in the payload, then the answer is "sometimes".

what you need to do is find something in the payload which should 
match either the source or destination address. the NLI is 
guaranteed to match the source address if S=1 which is nearly 
guaranteed to be true for some Queries and all Responses. the 
only other addressing field is the MRI, which might or might not
be useful depending on the routing method; there would be
quite a lot of different cases to specify even given the
current two MRMs, and i'm pretty sure some would fail (and
we don't know what the future will bring in this area).

if we really want guaranteed NAT detection, i think the only
reasonably simple way to do it is to include a full copy of
the header in the payload. Even then we have to accept that
some messages will get sent that may not arrive, because we
have no way to know if the Error (which is useful) will
actually get back through the NAT.

this seems to me like a rather narrow tradeoff: the cost is
not that great, but neither is the benefit. i'm not sure how
to make that call.

cheers,

r.

I refer you to the SAVA bof (it's basically the same problem).
We can filter some out but not everything. But in any case, that
question is moot: the signalling could come from an entirely
valid source - it's the destination that isn't valid. A simple
approach would be to signal for a flow into a paranoid corporate
network (i.e. valid address space) which never emitted any 
outgoing diagnostics.

it didn't get much more elaborate than that (we were discussing
http://www3.ietf.org/proceedings/06jul/slides/nsis-10/sld7.htm
in the session and the interface rate approach came up as an
alternative). you would size the bucket on the number of 
established sessions and the session refresh time being used
plus a bit of headroom. but this is still not robust (for example,
a routing change which puts flows onto a lower capacity link
would still be a problem).

hi john, lars, all,

some comments on the comments and discuss (not including the
rate control issue):

on the MTU front: fair point. Probably the note in 5.8.1.2 should
really be in 5.3 (where it applies to all cases of D mode).
See below on actual message sizes.

it's not addressed explicitly; the simple solution is not to 
distribute messages for the same SID over multiple associations.
if (for some reason) you need to create a new association while
an existing one is active, you can either close the existing one
gracefully (4.4.3) or use a MA-Hello request/response to flush
the connection. do you want this highlighted more?

signalling it is then ;-)

true; the diagram is supposed to be indicating the general structure
rather than precisely the detailed stacks that can be used. Maybe add
a note that not all protocol combinations are possible and the allowed
ones are in 5.7?

its difficult to be definitive. however, we do believe while not all
routers can handle the RAO in their fast path, at least some can,
and that from that point of view it is the safest way to mark packets
for interception which also allows a subset of the marked packets to
be pulled out of the fast path for interception (which is basically
a requirement for the multi-application support). Further discussion
of the RAO is in the extensibility document. Basically, the path-
coupling mandate of NSIS requires packet interception, and the RAO 
appears to have the optimum design for that.

true. one approach would be to allow a Querying node to fall back to
encapsulating without the RAO if the first message(s) fail. However,
this would interact with other fallback processing (source address
setting, relevant to the NAT discovery case) and would also make the
interception more complex.

I believe this is the same semantic that TCP provides (once you
take into account error conditions). I can't offer a better term.

True.

Yes. Basically, if 'false', GIST does no better than the underlying
Internet, which can do what you say.

I believe not. This document is not intended to specify 
NSLP behaviour normatively, so I think 2119 language would be
inappropriate.

I think so. The mechanism is only measuring/reporting IP TTL change
to compare it to the IP TTL change that normal data packets would see.
So, given that the Query is being routed like a normal data packet
(including through the same interfaces), I don't see a problem.

Yes, and that was the origin of the value here. The response is
supposed to be lightweight to generate, and it is important that
T1 is not too large since it is the basis for the time taken to
detect some critical failures (last node, node behind a NAT, etc.)

I don't follow. The paragraph is entirely about C mode (since only
in this mode can these protocols be used).

We can say that.

In theory no, because things like the cookies and peer identity
are variable length strings. But I just did a quick count, and
with a worst case for the other fields (e.g. using v6 addresses,
and a couple of possible stack proposals) adds up to about 150
bytes. So I think we are safe.

Again, this is about C mode (see above).

D mode only uses UDP+nothing. No flexibility is intended; if 
you wanted to negotiate another protocol, one would do so with the
C-mode mechanisms. It is probably worth saying this explicitly.

Noted.

Indentation not needed (rule 4 contains six steps at the same
nesting level; the ifs are genuine 1-liners).

Hmm.  It would seem that any discussion of special treatment
required for NAT traversal for a new protocol is *bound* to be
hypothetical while that spec is being written. What are you 
suggesting to be done with the section?

(BTW the mechanisms in this section have been implemented in
GIST nodes and NATs, although they are not as yet widely
deployed.)

Yes, it turned out to be less advanced than we expected.
Are you suggesting it to be moved earlier? From the point
of view of the document structure I'd prefer to leave it
where it is - it isn't needed to understand the earlier
sections, which are already pretty long.

cheers,

I asume "this" is that only a single MA MUST be used for messages for  
the same SID? Then yes, please.

We should involve the RTG/INT ADs here. We just had a discussion in  
the IESG on a similar mechanism that used IP options, where the  
stance was basically that everything that forces stuff on the slow- 
path is almost a DoS on the router CPU.

Encapsulation would also alleviate the possible concerns due to use  
of an IP option for the previous comment, so this might be something  
that needs some investigation.

Since you were going to add MTU-related text anyway, it may be good  
to point out that if payloads grow past the MTU, C-mode SHOULD be  
used if possible.

But not only about C-mode  - D-mode uses the same encapsulation  
format, no? (Similar to the prior comment, which should be located in  
the D-mode section, because it recommends to not use D-mode in a  
specific case.)

Maybe just change the title of section 7?

Sorry, I meant NLI not MRI.

I found nothing in the text of section 3 or early section 4 that
clearly states this.  I think for example updating 3.7 to include two
nodes that want to be interested in the signal flow would help handle
some of these issues.

This seems like it is discussed nowhere.  It also makes 5 in 3.7 very
misleading, because that behavior is dependent on the signaling
application.  I assumed throughout my entire reading of the document
that such forwarding was an invarient of GIST.

Hi,

the <Traffic> Parameter has a variable length (1 or 5 Bytes).
>From my point of view it would be better to seperate Bandwidth
and Token Bucket. It's easier to implement and the objects
can be identified by the ID.

<Path Jitter> Parameter has a length of 3 Bytes, but 4 integers
are listed below the header.

What do the values 0..7 in the <DSTE Class Type> field of
<QoS Class> stand for? Is there a value for Best Effort or high
priority?

<Preemption Prio> of <Priority>: higher values represent higher
priority. Is there a fixed value for Best Effort?

<Defending Prio>, do here also higher values represent higher
priority? Any values for best effort?

If I want to distinguish between 3 priority levels (best effort,
normal and high priority) where are the limits for each level
in <DSTE Class Type>, <Preemption Prio> and <Defending Prio>?

Bernd

We had the same suggestion from Christian Dickmann is his post at
http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/nsis/current/msg06658.html.  It
looks like a good change to make.

Good catch.
=20

These values would be defined within the DSTE context; there is no fixed
mapping, see RFC 4124 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4124.txt?number=3D4124.
=20
> <Preemption Prio> of <Priority>: higher values represent higher
> priority. Is there a fixed value for Best Effort?

No, these take on relative values.  See the normative RFC 3181
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3181.txt?number=3D3181.
=20
> <Defending Prio>, do here also higher values represent higher
> priority? Any values for best effort?

No, these take on relative values.  See the normative RFC 3181
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3181.txt?number=3D3181.
=20
> If I want to distinguish between 3 priority levels (best effort,

Not sure I understand the question.  As above, there is no fixed mapping
for any of these parameters.

See the normative RFCs for details, e.g., as stated in RFC 4124
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4124.txt?number=3D4124 for DSTE:
"DSTE LSRs MUST allow configuration of a TE-Class mapping whereby the
Class-Type and preemption level are configured for each of (up to) 8
TE-Classes... A TE-class consists of i. a Class-Type and ii. a
preemption priority allowed for that Class-Type.  This means that an LSP
transporting a Traffic Trunk from that Class-Type can use that
preemption priority as the setup priority, the holding priority, or
both."

Thanks,
Jerry

hi sam,

Basically I'll apologise now that the text has led you astray in
this way.

I think the question now is how and where to clarify the text to
avoid other people falling into the same trap.

One possibility would be to make a normative reference to the
framework (rfc4080) and highlight it as required reading. For
example, section 3.2.2 of RFC4080 covers exactly this point (i think
fairly unambiguously). On the other hand, it is just more text for
the implementor to read. Do you think that extending 3.7 of the
GIST spec itself to cover who takes responsibility for what for 
the multi-hop aspects would be enough?

cheers & thanks for your patience,

robert h.

we'll add something to cover the topic.

I think one needs to be careful here. Since we are talking about 
signalling to control the router, all the signalling that is relevant
to the router will almost certainly cause an impact on the router
CPU. The best we can do is to minimise the impact of signalling 
traffic which is not relevant to the router in question. Given that
we're mandated to use packet interception for path coupling 
following the basic RVSP model, this means that we need
- something in the packet that marks it as a potential
  signalling packet
- something in the packet that the router can check efficiently
  to see if the packet can be ignored
I believe the RAO is a fairly precise match for this requirement.
There is more discussion of this in section 3.4 of 
http://tools.ietf.org/wg/nsis/draft-loughney-nsis-ext-02.txt
(that text originally came from the GIST spec).

Side note: interception techniques have been a topic since the 
start of NSIS. It was one of the biggest discussion points 
during the NTLP early review (search for 'interception' at
http://www3.ietf.org/proceedings/04mar/235.htm; Dave and Fred
are Oran and Baker respectively). The point made there is that,
if you are a bad person and want to DoS the router, there are
easier ways than RAO, if you can find out a router IP address.
If you are not a bad person, you want to make sure that the
marked packets are as small as possible percentage of the overall
traffic, and C-mode enables that (and the RAO design allows
rapid filtering of whatever is marked).

I don't believe that the ecn-alternates use of options is strictly
comparable. ecn-alternates (and similar mechanisms) require a
read-write operation on the option field, rather than a filter
comparison. Also, I assume it would apply to a much larger 
proportion of the total traffic than we are expecting here.

I am not clear on this. Note that encapsulation without using the 
RAO may make packets less likely to be dropped (solves one problem), 
but it makes the interception process harder because it requires 
5-tuple analysis (in fact, for v6 it would require complete header
chain analysis), so it makes the previous problem even worse). So 
there is a tradeoff to be made.

Similar, but not the same. The same diagram for D mode would
- remove the security encpsulation annotation
- allow only a single GIST message
- have an optional RAO included (for Q-mode)
- have several different possible addresses in the IP header
  (for Q-mode)
- allow only UDP as a transport

In retrospect, I might be tempted to remove 5.4.2 or at least
figure 5 altogether, since it it actually technically wrong 
for the TCP case anyway (although in practice this seems to 
have caused no confusion!)

Hi Jerry,

thanks for your answer. I was hoping there were fixed values. I think
the best is to handle <DSTE Class Type>, <Preemption Prio> and 
<Defending Prio> as normal priority, ignoring that higher values
represent higher priority, when processing with a QOSM CLS.

 Hi Jerry, Cornelia and Attila

I have made an exercise and tried to apply and use the  
QPSEC-1 (mandatory) and QSPEC-2 (optional) parameters into the 
RMD-QOSM. Please note that in my opinion one might get the same conclusions
if
another edge-to-edge QOSM will be used, e.g., the future PCN QOSM.


My conclusions are as follows:

1) <Token Bucket> and <Bandidth> parameters should be QSPEC-1 paramteres,
but then 
a QNI MUST include both. A QNE that receives both these parameters must:

   * either strictly interpret at least one of the parameters. In this case
the "R" 
     flag and "Q" flags MUST not be set.

   * or remap one of the parameters into another parameter (e.g. <Token
Bucket> into <Bandwidh>
     In this case the remapped parameter (e.g., <Token Bucket>
     has to set the <R> flag. The <Q> flag should also be set.



2) The <Excess treatment> parameter influences the way of how the 
data packets should be treated within an edge-to-edge domain.
In this way the solutions that can be provided by RMD-QOSM in situations of 
e.g., severe congestion are limited. Note that this also will influence a
solution 
such as PCN in case of solving the preemption issue.
My recommendation is to ignore this parameter when it has to be used in
such edge-to-edge domains. This means that this parameter should be 
  * either a QSPEC-2 parameter 
  * or a QSPEC-1 parameter that is able to be ignored 
    in edge-to-edge domains, without that the flags "R" and "Q" flags are
set. 
    In the last case the QOSM description should emphasize that
    this parameter is ignored. 


3) <priority>: as already mentioned in the last version of the QSPEC
template draft
  such a parameter cannot be mandatory, because in several countries
preemption of
  sessions in favour of others is not allowed. Thus this parameter, should
either be 
  a QSPEC-2 parameter or a QSPEC-1 that could be in some cases ignored.
  Further, I would again recommend that all the <priority> parameters, MUST
be included 
  by a QNI, then a QNE that receives these parameters could:
   * either strictly interpret at least one of the parameters. In this case
the "R" 
     flag and "Q" flags MUST not be set.

   * or remap one of the parameters into another parameter 
     In this case the remapped parameter
     has to set the <R> flag. The <Q> flag should also be set.
  
4) <QoS Class>: this parameter can be a QSPEC-1 parameter, but a QNI MUST
include 
   all <QoS class> parameters, i.e., <PHB class>, <DSTE Class Type> and 
   <Y.1541 QoS Class>. Then a QNE that receives these parameters could:
   * either strictly interpret at least one of the parameters. In this case
the "R" 
     flag and "Q" flags MUST not be set.

   * or remap one of the parameters into another parameter, e.g., "DSCP" =>
"PHB ID code"
     In this case the remapped parameter, e.g., <PHB class>
     has to set the <R> flag. The <Q> flag should also be set.

Best Regards,
Georgios

Always sending both <token bucket> and <bandwidth> makes no sense to me. =
 The QNI sends either/or based on its QOSM.  A QNE can either strictly =
interpret or remap whichever parameter is sent.

You haven't explained why the QSPEC-1 parameters cannot be strictly =
interpreted or remapped.  Anyway, there is essentially no support to =
ignore QSPEC-1 parameters.

Preemption is used with RSVP without problem, NSIS introduces nothing =
new in that regard.  However, if such an issue of 'illegality' arises =
for use of preemption, perhaps a specific error code could be introduced =
to address that specific issue, but I see no need for that at this =
point.

The various cases of sending <priority> parameters are described in =
Section 7.2.4 of the QSPEC draft =
http://ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nsis-qspec-11.txt.  There are =
some instances where all or some of the parameters are sent, but it =
makes no sense to always send all parameters.  The QNI sends <priority> =
parameters based on its QOSM.  A QNE can either strictly interpret or =
remap whichever parameter(s) are sent.

As stated in Section 7.2.3 of the QSPEC draft =
http://ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nsis-qspec-11.txt:
"  <QoS Class> =3D <PHB Class> <DSTE Class Type> <Y.1541 QoS Class>
   The above notation means that either <PHB Class>, <DSTE Class Type>,
   or <Y.1541 QoS Class> sub-parameters MAY be populated in the <QoS
   Class> parameter.  Normally only one of these sub-parameters is
   populated in <QoS Class>.  If more than one sub-parameter is
   populated, the QOSM specification document MUST give procedures for
   processing multiple sub-parameters."

IMO this is the correct approach, it makes no sense to always send all =
parameters.  The QNI sends <QoS class> parameters based on its QOSM.  A =
QNE can either strictly interpret or remap whichever parameter(s) are =
sent.

This of course begs the question of whether the end-to-end  
transactional state machine should or should not be common for the  
different signaling applications.

As everyone on this list knows, I've been on the other side of this  
question (I wouldn't call it a debate because I was roundly defeated  
by the WG consensus) on this and the associated issues of common end- 
to-end features among the signaling applications.

I simply can't resist posting, because I am undeterred in my  
conviction that the design is at least suboptimal, and possibly flawed.

If there's no stomach to wind back and revisit these issues, I'll  
crawl back into my cave.

Dave.

Hi Georgios and all,

what are the solutions for RMD-QOSM for <Excess Treatment>?
For the behaviour of the Traffic Conditioner for out-of-profile
traffic for the CLS-QOSM I thought of:

  0: drop, some or all packets are discarded
  1: shape, some or all packets are delayed
  2: remark, reclassification to BE
  3: no metering or policing, ...

In countries where preemption is not allowed, high priority
could be degraded to normal priority. This still allows
to differentiate between best effort traffic and normal priority.

When a QNI must include <PHB class>, <DSTE Class Type> and 
<Y.1541 QoS Class>, which values should be taken, when the QNI
can't provide them? As Jerry pointed out some days ago, there's
no fixed mapping for <PHB class>, <DSTE Class Type>.

If both, <Token Bucket> and <Bandwidth> have to be included by
a QNI then one parameter is enough: <Token Bucket>. A QOSM
which needs <Bandwidth>, can interpret it as bandwidth. Is there
a need to define this mapping or can this be up to the implementation?

Bernd

In this case what should the RSN be in the tearing RESERVE that is

Dear Ruud Klaver,

section 5.3.1 says if the Epoch Identifier is different to the stored
one then the reservation has to be seen as an update. The stored RSN
and Epoch Identifier need to be exchanged to the received ones.

In case the router rebooted the RSN can be e.g. 0 and the QNE has
to store it as RSN from the upstream peer.

Bernd

Hi Bernd

* Regarding the <Excess Treatment>, the RMD QNEs should be able to=20
choose the most efficient way for excess treatment in order to=20
for example, solve severe congestion situations.
If this parameter is mandatory, this will mean that the=20
end QNI will dictate what kind of excess treatment should be used=20
by each QNE in the RMD domain. This will limit the way of how the=20
severe congestion is solved.

Note that in a severe congestion situation, typically most packets=20
will be dropped! However, if the <Excess treatment> is mandatory=20
and the end QNI dictates that the packets should be remarked=20
and not dropped, then all the nodes that are under severe congestion=20
will keep the congestion and the network will very quickly collapse.


* Regarding <Token Bucket> and <Bandwidth>, if both are included in the=20
<QoS desired> or <QoS available> then a QNE can choose the one of the =
two
parameters.

A problem may arise from the fact that the QNI will not know which of =
the
one is=20
used by the QNEs.
One solution of this problem can be solved in the following way:
If a QNI is willing to use the <Token Bucket> parameter as mandatory, =
then=20
the QNI must include the <Token Bucket> parameter as QSPEC-1 parameter =
and=20
it must also inlcude the <Bandwidth> parameter as QSPEC-2 parameter.
If a QNE cannot use the <Token Bucket>, then it will use the optional=20
<Bandwidth> parameter and will set the "R" and "Q" flags associated with =
the

<Token Bucket> parameter.
When <Bandwidth> is chosen as QSPEC-1 parameter, then <Token Bucket> is
chosen as=20
QSPEC-2 parameter. A similar method of remapping as described above can =
be
followed.
Note that in this case the way of how the remapping of one QSPEC-1 =
parameter
value into another=20
value is specified by the QNI.=20


* Regarding <priority>, the mentioned solution regarding the=20
remapping from high to normal by appling a degradation of high priority=20
to normal priority, maybe can help, but the main problem that I have is=20
the fact that all four <priority> parameters are mandatory and for=20
a QOSM that uses one of the four <priority> parameters, it is difficult=20
to remap one of the <priority> parameters into another one.

If a QNI includes all 4 <priority> parameters, then a QNE=20
can choose the one that it needs! Note that a QNI should be able=20
to fill all 4 QSPEC-1 <priority> parameters. This is the same situation =
as
the situation=20
that a QNE should be able to process all QSPEC-1 parameters.
A problem may arise from the fact that the QNI will not know which of =
the
one is=20
used by the QNEs.
One solution of this problem can be solved in the following way:
Make only one of the four <priority> parameters QSPEC-1 parameter.=20
The QNI must include all the other three <priority> parameters as=20
QSPEC-2 parameters.
The way of how the remapping is done is similar to the explanation that =
I
give above
 regarding <Token Bucket> and <Bandwidth> parameters.


* The problem with the QoS class parameters is that it is very difficult =
to
remap
One of the QoS class parameters into another parameter. In my previous
e-mails=20
I emphasized that each of the QoS class parameters are usefull in some
setting and useless=20
in other settings. In order to make the <QoS class> parameter always =
usefull

We can do that by requiring that the QNI must include all three QoS =
class
parameters,
then a QNE can choose the one that it needs. Note that a QNI should be =
able=20
to fill all 3 QSPEC-1 <QoS class> parameters. This is the same situation =
as
the situation=20
that a QNE should be able to process all QSPEC-1 <QoS class> parameters.



Best regards,
Georgios

<Y.1541 QoS Class>, which values should be taken, when the QNI can't =
provide
them? As Jerry pointed out some days ago, there's no fixed mapping for =
<PHB
class>, <DSTE Class Type>.

If both, <Token Bucket> and <Bandwidth> have to be included by a QNI =
then
one parameter is enough: <Token Bucket>. A QOSM which needs <Bandwidth>, =
can
interpret it as bandwidth. Is there a need to define this mapping or can
this be up to the implementation?

Hi Georgios,=20

essentially you would include always all parameters into the QSPEC. The =
goal of the QSPEC exercise was however right the contrary: gain =
interoperability by allowing (may be unprecise) "x-interpretation" of =
parameters. So I think your proposal is - while entirely possible - not =
in the spirit of the draft. There are other possibilities if you make =
slight compromises (regarding (i) the exact interpretation of QNI =
parameters and (ii) what a QNE must be able to do (note in the RMD case =
these are just the stateful edge QNEs!))=20

Hi all,

I have a question about nsis qos routing. There are two nodes (Assuming node
A and node B) in a computer communication network. I want to set up a qos
routing between node A and node B, then send the real data.

As we know, there are probably several qos routings between node A and node
B. My question is that: Before I send the real data, how nsis qos signaling
finds the optimum routing amoung these probably routings  and sets up the
optimum qos routing?

Bestwishes!

	Hi all,

	As we know, there are probably several qos routings between node A and node B. My question is that: Before I send the real data, how nsis qos signaling finds the optimum routing amoung these probably routings  and sets up the optimum qos routing? 
	 
	Bestwishes!

It is my understanding that the priority parameters should not by regarded
as 4 independent parameters, but rather as two parameter-pairs:
The <Preemption Priority> & <Defending Priority> Parameters must either
both be present, or neither.
You can have <Admission Priority> without <RPH Priority>, but you can only
have <RPH Priority> if you also have <Admission Priority>, with the value "
2 - high priority flow".

Hi Janet

You are right, but my point was to emphasize that the=20
QNI should include all 4 <priority> parameters, then a QNE can choose=20
the one (or the ones) that it needs! Note that a QNI should be able to=20
fill all 4 QSPEC-1 <priority> parameters. This is the same situation
as the situation that a QNE should be able to process all QSPEC-1
parameters.
=20
Best regards,
Georgios

Hi Cornelia

The problems that I have found with these parameters are:

1) Not all QSPEC-1 parameters are necessary to provide the =
interoperability.
   For example, the QNE must support each parameter even if that =
parameter
causes a collapse in
   the network performance, e.g., <Excess Treatment>.=20

2) There are 4 sets of QSPEC-1 parameters: <QoS Class>, <priority>, =
<Excess
Treatment>
   <Traffic>. Each of these sets includes more than one parameter, e.g.,
<QoS Class>
   includes the <PHB class>, <DSTE class type> and <Y.1541 QoS class>
parameters. However,=20
   in the current version of QSpec template, a QNI must include at least =
one

   of the parameters. Thus, for example, consider that a QNI includes =
either
a
   a <DSTE class type> or a <Y.1541 QoS class>. Based on the current =
QSpec
template specification=20
   a diffserv based QNE must be able to interpret a <DSTE class type> =
and a
<Y.1541 QoS class>=20
   even if it cannot do that! Please note that I do not think that it is
possible=20
   to remap a <DSTE class type> or a <Y.1541 QoS class> parameter into a =
PHB
class=20
parameter.


Below you can find a copy of the e-mail that I have sent this morning =
that
describes these issues=20
in a more detailed way:

---------------------


* Regarding the <Excess Treatment>, the RMD QNEs should be able to =
choose
the most efficient way for excess treatment in order to for example, =
solve
severe congestion situations.
If this parameter is mandatory, this will mean that the end QNI will =
dictate
what kind of excess treatment should be used by each QNE in the RMD =
domain.
This will limit the way of how the severe congestion is solved.

Note that in a severe congestion situation, typically most packets will =
be
dropped! However, if the <Excess treatment> is mandatory and the end QNI
dictates that the packets should be remarked and not dropped, then all =
the
nodes that are under severe congestion will keep the congestion and the
network will very quickly collapse.


* Regarding <Token Bucket> and <Bandwidth>, if both are included in the =
<QoS
desired> or <QoS available> then a QNE can choose the one of the two
parameters.

A problem may arise from the fact that the QNI will not know which of =
the
one is used by the QNEs.
One solution of this problem can be solved in the following way:
If a QNI is willing to use the <Token Bucket> parameter as mandatory, =
then
the QNI must include the <Token Bucket> parameter as QSPEC-1 parameter =
and
it must also inlcude the <Bandwidth> parameter as QSPEC-2 parameter.
If a QNE cannot use the <Token Bucket>, then it will use the optional
<Bandwidth> parameter and will set the "R" and "Q" flags associated with =
the
<Token Bucket> parameter.
When <Bandwidth> is chosen as QSPEC-1 parameter, then <Token Bucket> is
chosen as
QSPEC-2 parameter. A similar method of remapping as described above can =
be
followed.
Note that in this case the way of how the remapping of one QSPEC-1 =
parameter
value into another value is specified by the QNI.=20


* Regarding <priority>, the mentioned solution regarding the remapping =
from
high to normal by appling a degradation of high priority to normal =
priority,
maybe can help, but the main problem that I have is the fact that all =
four
<priority> parameters are mandatory and for a QOSM that uses one of the =
four
<priority> parameters, it is difficult to remap one of the <priority>
parameters into another one.

If a QNI includes all 4 <priority> parameters, then a QNE can choose the =
one
that it needs! Note that a QNI should be able to fill all 4 QSPEC-1
<priority> parameters. This is the same situation as the situation that =
a
QNE should be able to process all QSPEC-1 parameters.
A problem may arise from the fact that the QNI will not know which of =
the
one is used by the QNEs.
One solution of this problem can be solved in the following way:
Make only one of the four <priority> parameters QSPEC-1 parameter.=20
The QNI must include all the other three <priority> parameters as
QSPEC-2 parameters.
The way of how the remapping is done is similar to the explanation that =
I
give above  regarding <Token Bucket> and <Bandwidth> parameters.


* The problem with the QoS class parameters is that it is very difficult =
to
remap One of the QoS class parameters into another parameter. In my =
previous
e-mails I emphasized that each of the QoS class parameters are usefull =
in
some setting and useless in other settings. In order to make the <QoS =
class>
parameter always usefull We can do that by requiring that the QNI must
include all three QoS class parameters, then a QNE can choose the one =
that
it needs. Note that a QNI should be able to fill all 3 QSPEC-1 <QoS =
class>
parameters. This is the same situation as the situation that a QNE =
should be
able to process all QSPEC-1 <QoS class> parameters.

essentially you would include always all parameters into the QSPEC. The =

by allowing (may be unprecise) "x-interpretation" of parameters. So I =

your proposal is - while entirely possible - not in the spirit of the =
draft.
There are other possibilities if you make slight compromises (regarding =
(i)
the exact interpretation of QNI parameters and (ii) what a QNE must be =
able
to do (note in the RMD case these are just the stateful edge QNEs!))=20

About which QoS routing proposal are you talking when you say that QoS
routing functionality is provided by the IP layer?

 And we know the nsis is mainly on path-coupled

True.

 Therefor, if I want to set up a QoS routing between node A

What you might really want todo with NSIS is to create a QoS reservation
 along a path between the data sender (node A) and the data receiver
(node B).

 there are three steps,
> step 1, the IP layer set up a QoS routing between node A and node B.

You need to reference the QoS routing proposal in order to give this
sentence some meaning.

The state is allocated at nodes that are discovered by the GIST
discovery procedure.

Hi Georgios

Re (1):
"cause collapse in network performance": I assume this is something you =
think might happen rather than the result of a measurement? For sure the =
inclusion of every mandatory parameter is a trade off between =
performance and interoperabilty. And my impression is "rough consensus" =
in the WG is including Excess Treatment (since we dont have any =
measurements)
[reading your more detailed email attached my impression is you worry =
particularly about a QNE being forced to remark rather than drop. So may =
be this is a problem with this particular value of Excess Treatment?]

Re (2):
a) As you know, the QNI does NOT need to include every parameter =
(ceterum censeo...!?!?!?!) (Nor a QNI must be able to fill all three =
priority parameters. A QNI only fills those parameters it cares about)
b) Doubtlessly there is no perfect mapping between the individual =
parameters. But then the goal of QoS NSLP is interoperability. And this =
is only possible when allowing an (imperfect) mapping.

Hi Georgios

Treatment?]

Georgios: Please note that the main problem with this relates to the =
<Excess
Treatment> parameter.
   The problem does impact not only the network performance, but also =
the
operation of the network.
   If a node strictly follows the mandated requirement, then in case of
e.g., a severe congestion, then
   the network might completely collapse, i.e., a total network failure
could occur.
   Regarding the Excess Treatment value, the current specification =
mentions
that=20
   the QNI will specify the value!

> Re (2):
a) As you know, the QNI does NOT need to include every=20

> A QNI only fills those parameters it cares about)

Georgios: regarding a)=20
Yes, I know that the current version specifies that the QNI does NOT =
need to
include every parameter.
And that is exactly what creates the problems mentioned by me. If the =
QNI
will be required to
include these parameters, then most of the remapping problems within the
network are solved.
This is because the QNI will actually do the remapping by itself and it =
will
have a better knowledge=20
on accepting or rejecting a requested reservation.=20
For example, if we look to the QoS Class parameters,=20
each of the QoS class parameters are usefull in
some setting and impossible in other settings. In order to make the <QoS
class>
parameter always possible we can do that by requiring that the QNI must
include all three QoS class parameters, then a QNE can choose=20
the one that it needs. Note that if a QNI is interested only in one of =
them,
say <Y.1541 QoS class>, then the QNI
Could set this parameter as QSPEC-1 parameter. However, in this case the =
QNI
MUST also fill in the other two parameters, i.e., <PHB class> and <DSTE
class type>, which can be set as QSPEC-2 parameters.
In this way it will be possible for any QNE to remap the value of the
QSPEC-1 <QOS class> parameter, e.g.,=20
<Y.1541 class> into either <DSTE class type> or <PHB class>. =
Furthermore,
the QNI will have all the knowledge=20
On which method has been used for the remapping of the <QoS class>
parameter.

> b) Doubtlessly there is no perfect mapping between=20
> the individual parameters. But then the goal of=20
> QoS NSLP is interoperability. And this is only=20
> possible when allowing an (imperfect) mapping.

Georgios: regarding b)=20
I am not talking about imperfect mapping, but I am referring to an
impossible mapping.
Could you please provide me with two examples:
1) Please provide an example of remapping of=20
the <DSTE class type> parameter into <PHB class> parameter
2) Please provide an example of remapping of=20
the <Y.1541 QopS class> parameter into <PHB class> parameter


Many thanks in adavance!

Georgios

Georgios and all:

Is it not wise to drop the QOS classes like Y.1541 and DSTE from the
QSPEC draft in the first place as we mentioned over the years?

Can anyone make any sense when they want to "map" between Y.1541 and
DSTE QOS classes?=20

Moreover, are those "values" not chosen those independent from one
another to sever different purposes decoupling "arbitrarily" from the
needs of the upper layer applications just to have the network-centric
view?

Even from the network-centric view, will anyone be able to "map" between
Y.1541 and DSTE QOS classes that make technical sense to sever the
purpose of the network QOS, if not application QOS?

Best regards,
Radhika

Georgios: regarding b)=20
I am not talking about imperfect mapping, but I am referring to an
impossible mapping.
Could you please provide me with two examples:
1) Please provide an example of remapping of=20
the <DSTE class type> parameter into <PHB class> parameter
2) Please provide an example of remapping of=20
the <Y.1541 QopS class> parameter into <PHB class> parameter


Many thanks in adavance!

Georgios,

In the spirit of John's post
http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/nsis/current/msg06726.html can we
please hear from other people on this topic, and not have so many
repetitions of RMD-QOSM specific concerns.

E.g., we have seen many times:

> The <Excess treatment> parameter influences the way of how the=20
> data packets should be treated within an edge-to-edge domain.
> In this way the solutions that can be provided by RMD-QOSM in
> situations of e.g., severe congestion are limited. Note that
> this also will influence a solution such as PCN in case of
> solving the preemption issue.

A QNE supporting a different Local QOSM than the Initiator QOSM has 3
options
1. strictly interpret QSPEC-1 parameters populated in the Initiator
QSPEC
2. remap QSPEC-1 parameters populated in the Initiator QSPEC (as
specified in the Local-QOSM specification document)
3. reject the reservation

In the instance you cite, #3 may be the appropriate response.  Even if a
QSPEC-1 parameter could be ignored the QNI would probably reject the
reservation anyway.

Thanks,
Jerry

Hi all,

It seems that our spec is not very clear on how Tear-operations should be 
handled, or at least leaves some things a bit too open.

1. Can a Tear-operation cause an error situation, and cause an error
   message to be sent back towards the QNI? Should some errors be silently
   accepted, should the tearing RESERVE still be sent further?

2. Can the QNI request a confirmation of state removal, that the operation 
   was successful, e.g, by including an RII into the tearing RESERVE?

3. If either, or both, should be made possible by the spec, how would this 
   affect GIST? A QNE gets a tearing RESERVE, it removes the state (1), 
   forwards the message towards the next QNE (2), and may ask GIST to 
   remove any routing state for this session. Now, if this QNE later gets 
   back an error message, or a RESPONSE, for a session it no longer 
   knows, what does the QNE do? Re-set up routing state towards the QNI 
   using GIST, and send the message forward?

RSVP RFC2209 says basically that unknown messages are silently dropped. 
Still, in this case, an error message, or a RESPONSE, can be considered to 
be similar to an RSVP CONFIRM (RACK) message, which is just forwarded 
without much processing.


Regards,
Jukka

Hi Jukka and all,

 From my point of view even that the draft recommends to send a RESPONSE 
message to errors that might occur on a RESERVE with the TEAR flag, like 
missing QSPEC (if necessary) or if a reservation does not exist (this 
message might also be silently dropped), this is not necessary.

Even if the RESERVE with the TEAR flag is not accepted, after a while 
the soft-state will take care of the process of removing this session 
since it isn't refreshed anymore.

For the same reason I believe that RII is not necessary since the QNI 
doesn't need to be concerned with reservations that might have not been 
torn down because they will be when the soft state expires.

Best regards,

David Palma

Thanks for the message. That would be the simple solution, true, but I
wonder if people are comfortable with just that. I'd like to hear people's
views on wherther we should go for

A) no RESPONSE messages to errors, no signaling of errors with tearing 
   RESERVEs (just rely on the soft state).

B) Provide something more (as presented in my email).

Regards,
Jukka

Hi Roland and all,

Sorry for the delay in answering. I have been away on holidays and

A node cannot know all possible inbound routes from the Internet. If
there is just a single inbound route, it is not an issue at all,
i.e., take this single route. However, if there are multiple inbound
routes, i.e., a firewall/NAT with multiple IP interfaces, it is
probably impossible to determine through which route the IP packets
will arrive at your box.

Yes, that's right.

What you describe was how we did it until the LE-MRM was
"invented". This was considered as a "dirty hack". There is no
public trace about this discussion, because it was on a sidetrack
offline. Do you know about this old draft, initially explaining
the reasoning for LE-MRM?

http://www.watersprings.org/pub/id/draft-stiemerling-nsis-natfw- 
mrm-02.txt


There is a semantical difference between the PC-MRM usage
you have described and the LE-MRM usage. The described
PC-MRM usage creates NTLP state at all NATFW NSLP nodes
with this MRI

pc-mrm.src= LS,
pc-mrm.dst= R,
pc-mrm.direction=upstream,
pc-mrm.prefixlength=32.

The PC-MRM creates the corresponding state for the flow described
with above MRI excerpt, i.e., flow source is LS, etc. This state
is never used again in the future and does not correspond to any
inbound flow, because LS is not the real flow source. So this is
to some degree ugly, because there is a state without relationship
to real life. This "signaling somewhere to get out here" (i.e.,
the LE-MRM) is actually not describing a flow, compared to the
PC-MRM. This is original reason to split them.
Another reason is the multiple inbound routes case. With LE-MRM
GIST is taking care about multiple inbound routes, because the
flow source is the signaling destination address (SDA) actually
not representing a flow. With PC-MRM the flow source may case
GIST to stop forwarding if there are multiple inbound routes.
Plus GIST cannot know whether the whole network is NAT'ed or not.

Processing PC-MRM and LE-MRM is fundamentally different when it comes
to multiple inbound routes. PC-MRM will probably fail, because GIST
cannot determine which route is being taken. LE-MRM will keep working
in any case.

I assume that the reasoning for all of it is not clear I you haven't
followed two years of discussions. Obviously, this is impossible.
I have it on my list for the upcoming revision, to clarify on the
LE-MRM usage and benefits.

Thanks!

Hi Jukka and all,

I agree with David that the soft state removes a session if it isn't
refreshed any more. On the other hand it can be of interest for a QNI
to know immediately about the success of a state removal. It can take
quite a long time till the soft state expires. This could be a waste 
of resources.

What error conditions do you have in mind? Do you thing the existing
teardown is not reliable?

Bernd

Hi,

If you look at the QoS NSLP error situations (codes), all sorts of 
things could go wrong, e.g.:

- Informational: unknown bound session ID
- Protocol error: all errors are valid
- Transient: possibly "RII conflict", "Mismatch synchronization"
- Permanent failure: both (some system error, or authorization failure)

Thus, would it be important to signal those errors to the QNI when a 
resource removal failed?

You are right. There is some error processing missing here. I just =20
came across the same issue when doing the last round of proof reading.

The error code will be propagated from the NF detecting the lifetime =20
issue (upstream **) to the NI. There is currently no notification of =20
this error condition towards the NR, leaving all NFs and the NR =20
already having seen the response in an undesired state. I.e., storing =20=

NSLP signaling sessions that are basically not valid/needed.

My proposal: NFs running in such an error condition must additionally =20=

send a NOTIFY towards the NR. This NOTIFY can information the NFs on =20
the way to NR and the NR about the error condition. The NOTIFY =20
semantics would need to be adapted to this, because currently NOTIFY =20
messages are only allowed to be sent towards the NI.

** Trying to avoid upstream/downstream terminology for the NSLP level =20=

starting NOW! ;-)

It is described how to teardown REA-PROXY sessions, but in a hidden way.
The REA-PROXY section mentions that processing of REA-PROXY and the  
CREATE
message works in the same way as their non-proxy counterparts REA and
CREATE. Therefore, the process of tearing down a REA-PROXY session is
setting the session lifetime to zero. This will also terminate the
corresponding CREATE sent by the edge-device.

I have to admit that the text about this is somewhat short and can be
easily misunderstood. I have added it to my issue list and I will add
it to the issue tracker.

You are right about loosing the external address if you teardown a REA
or REA-PROXY session. However, the external address is still in use if
there is already a CREATE message coming from outside, i.e., a non-proxy
CREATE.

Interesting point of switching between proxy and non-proxy mode within
a single NSLP signaling session. I have to go back and think about it
and the implications.

It is described how to teardown REA-PROXY sessions, but in a hidden way.
The REA-PROXY section mentions that processing of REA-PROXY and the  
CREATE
message works in the same way as their non-proxy counterparts REA and
CREATE. Therefore, the process of tearing down a REA-PROXY session is
setting the session lifetime to zero. This will also terminate the
corresponding CREATE sent by the edge-device.

I have to admit that the text about this is somewhat short and can be
easily misunderstood. I have added it to my issue list and I will add
it to the issue tracker.

You are right about loosing the external address if you teardown a REA
or REA-PROXY session. However, the external address is still in use if
there is already a CREATE message coming from outside, i.e., a non-proxy
CREATE.

Interesting point of switching between proxy and non-proxy mode within
a single NSLP signaling session. I have to go back and think about it
and the implications.

Hi Georgios,=20

I think it is very hard to determine what is the right set of parameters =
without any actual deployment.=20

A QNI can always include values for all QSPEC-1 parameters if it thinks =
this is useful. But I see no point in mandating this.=20

If Excess Treatment is set to remark, but a particular QOSM only has one =
queue, then the remarking may just mean "drop". So I dont see a problem =
here, either.=20

I havent thought about mappings between different QoS Classes, and may =
be it is difficult to do. But why would the QNI be in a better position =
to map (because it would essentially do that when including values for =
all parameters) than a QNE? And if the QNI thinks it knows better then =
it can include the values.

Hi,

=20

the NSIS team of the University of Goettingen is proud to announce the
release of a new development version of our NSIS package, which offers a
lot of new features. We now support Traffic Control (tc) on Linux to
really reserve resources and allow the integration of NSIS/QoS into
applications by offering a QoS NSLP API. This development version also
comes with a lot of bugfixes and updates to new draft versions of GIST
and QoS NSLP.=20

=20

However, the most exciting new feature is the support for Windows XP and
OpenWRT[1]!

=20

The Windows XP version is a demonstration prototype, which is able to
detect the UDP port used by Skype[2] and trigger the local QoS NSLP
daemon to request resources for phone calls.

In addition, we support OpenWRT, which is a Linux distribution for
embedded devices, i.e. broadband Wireless LAN / DSL routers. On a lot of
such routers, like the Linksys WRT54G (see the OpenWRT homepage[1] for a
list of supported hardware), OpenWRT can be installed as an alternative
firmware.

=20

All new features combined, NSIS usage in SOHO networks becomes reality!=20

The Windows machine triggers the request and the DSL router reserves the
resources by the use of the Traffic Control tool.

=20

You can find the development versions for all platforms of the NSIS
package on our beta version page. The ChangeLog which lists all changes
is also available on that page. Please see the individual README files
on how to use the packages.

=20

http://user.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/~nsis/beta.html

=20

We encourage anyone to try this development version and appreciate
feedback of any kind, such as installation/setup experience, bug
reports, feature requests, etc.

=20

Christian Dickmann

On behalf of University of Goettingen NSIS team

Hi,

if a teardown is not possible due to some errors and the QNI gets
informed about them, then the errors might be fixed and a clean 
teardown gets possible.

I prefer the signaling of errors rather than soft state removal.

Hi Jukka and Bernd, and all,

I would agree with Bernd that the explicit signaling is better than soft
state removal. Relying on the soft state removal means the relevant
resources would be kept for the timeout period. This is not desired in
scenarios where mobility and aggregations are involved.=20

As already discussed in the Mobility Applicability draft, in the mobile
environment, it is preferred to have explicit tearing of the old states
to avoid double reservations. In certain case, it is even desired to
allow intermediary nodes, e.g. CRN, to trigger the tearing for network
optimization.

Aggregation is another case that prompt removal is important. Aggregated
reservation usually holds much more resources than individual
reservation. Allowing such state to relinquish for the timeout period
would put delay on new reservations' acceptances. And this could again
cause interruptions to seamless transitions. =20

Although the soft state guarantees the ultimate removal of the state,
the network will scale much better with the explicit signaling
supported. (Considering there could be thousands of states involved.)
Therefore, signaling of the errors should be supported even for the
teardown case.


cheers

Hi Cornelia

But the main problem I have is that due to some QSPEC-1 constraints,=20
the edge-to-edge concept of NSIS will not be able to be deployed at all. =

Therefore, it is important to solve these problems now!

Best regards,
Georgios=20

Hi Georgios,=20

I think it is very hard to determine what is the right set of parameters
without any actual deployment.=20

A QNI can always include values for all QSPEC-1 parameters if it thinks =
this
is useful. But I see no point in mandating this.=20

If Excess Treatment is set to remark, but a particular QOSM only has one
queue, then the remarking may just mean "drop". So I dont see a problem
here, either.=20

I havent thought about mappings between different QoS Classes, and may =
be it
is difficult to do. But why would the QNI be in a better position to map
(because it would essentially do that when including values for all
parameters) than a QNE? And if the QNI thinks it knows better then it =
can
include the values.

Cornelia

Hi Jukka

I agree with David that the QNI doesn't need to be concerned with 
reservations that might have not been torn down because they 
will be torn down when the soft state expires.
This holds also for the error codes you listed in your previous e-mail.

Best Regards,
Georgios

Hi,

If you look at the QoS NSLP error situations (codes), all sorts of things
could go wrong, e.g.:

- Informational: unknown bound session ID
- Protocol error: all errors are valid
- Transient: possibly "RII conflict", "Mismatch synchronization"
- Permanent failure: both (some system error, or authorization failure)

Thus, would it be important to signal those errors to the QNI when a
resource removal failed?

Dear Hong and all,

the normal case should be that the teardown is understood,
where possible an error situation should be recovered and
where no recovery is possible the reservation state can be
torn down by the soft state expiration. 

An unrecoverable error could be the wrong SID or the QNI
fails because on an empty battery. I think a confirmation
of state removal improves network scalability.

Bernd


soft state expiry.

Hi Rui,

The cited text "RESPONSE messages are responses to CREATE and REA =20
messages." has not been adapted to fit also the TRACE response case. =20
It must read

"RESPONSE messages are responses to CREATE, REA, and TRACE messages."

As Hannes has said, we are going to update the section in the new =20
revision of the draft.

Thanks

Hi all

I think that there might be a misunderstanding in the meaning of this
thread.
I think that all of us agree that an explicit tear (release) procedure
must be used. Thus a RESERVE with a Tear (T)  flag set will be used when
an explicit tear (release) procedure is required.

The open issue is related to weather it should be possible for the QNI
(QNE)  to include an RII object in the tear RESERVE in order to
subsequently receive a RESPONSE from the QNR. In this way the QNI (QNE)
will know that the tear down procedure was sucessful.

Best Regards,
Georgios

Hi Georgios,

one question was whether it should be possible to include a RII object
in the teardown msg to get a confirmation of state removal.

Another question was whether a teardown can cause an error situation and
how this error situation is handled. When the Reserve with set T-Flag
is not accepted, an error message could be sent back or the message could
be ignored which causes state removal by soft-state expiration. My idea
then was that the error situation could potentially be fixed when the QNI
gets informed and that for network scalability reasons this should be preferred.

I can't see a misunderstanding so far. Please see also 
http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/nsis/current/msg06745.html

Best Regards,
Bernd

Christian, All,
=20
Congratulations on this significant accomplishment!
=20
We have a question regarding QSPEC implementation.  In Section 4.3.3.1 =
(Reservation Failure & Error E-Flag) of the QSPEC draft =
http://ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nsis-qspec-11.txt =
<http://ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nsis-qspec-11.txt>  we =
describe the dual use of the E-flag. =20

We'd like your opinion and others' opinion on the NSIS implementation =
list RE a possible issue with the 'overloading' of the E-Flag.  As =
described in Section 4.3.3.1 the E-flag has a dual purpose and can mean =
either 'QSPEC parameter not met' or 'QSPEC parameter error'.  As =
described, if the E flag is set for erroneous parameters, it MUST NOT be =
set for parameters not met, and visa versa.  I.e., the use of the E flag =
is completely disjoint for the two cases. =20

=20

However, what if a QSPEC contains n parameters. The RMF parses the =
parameters sequentially, and the first parameter is not met and its =
E-Flag is raised.  The parsing continues, everything is fine.  But the =
nth parameter is erroneous. Its E-Flag is raised.  What we currently =
require is the RMF goes back to the first parameter and unsets the =
E-Flag.

=20

Is this an implementation problem big enough that it would warrant an =
additional flag to distinguish the 2 cases?  We would prefer not to =
introduce another flag unless this is seen as a significant problem.

=20

Your opinion on this would be helpful since you have already developed a =
prototype QSPEC implementation.

=20

Thanks,

Jerry, Cornelia, Attila

Subject: [NSIS] NSIS for end users - It's reality



Hi,

=20

the NSIS team of the University of Goettingen is proud to announce the =
release of a new development version of our NSIS package, which offers a =
lot of new features. We now support Traffic Control (tc) on Linux to =
really reserve resources and allow the integration of NSIS/QoS into =
applications by offering a QoS NSLP API. This development version also =
comes with a lot of bugfixes and updates to new draft versions of GIST =
and QoS NSLP.=20

=20

However, the most exciting new feature is the support for Windows XP and =
OpenWRT[1]!

=20

The Windows XP version is a demonstration prototype, which is able to =
detect the UDP port used by Skype[2] and trigger the local QoS NSLP =
daemon to request resources for phone calls.

In addition, we support OpenWRT, which is a Linux distribution for =
embedded devices, i.e. broadband Wireless LAN / DSL routers. On a lot of =
such routers, like the Linksys WRT54G (see the OpenWRT homepage[1] for a =
list of supported hardware), OpenWRT can be installed as an alternative =
firmware.

=20

All new features combined, NSIS usage in SOHO networks becomes reality!=20

The Windows machine triggers the request and the DSL router reserves the =
resources by the use of the Traffic Control tool.

=20

You can find the development versions for all platforms of the NSIS =
package on our beta version page. The ChangeLog which lists all changes =
is also available on that page. Please see the individual README files =
on how to use the packages.

=20

http://user.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/~nsis/beta.html

=20

We encourage anyone to try this development version and appreciate =
feedback of any kind, such as installation/setup experience, bug =
reports, feature requests, etc.

=20

Christian Dickmann

On behalf of University of Goettingen NSIS team

Hi,

the Mobility Applicability draft mentions that after reestablishing NSIS
state along a new path the reservation on the old path needs to be quickly
removed to avoid double reservations and waste of resources. It is recommended
to use teardown messages rather than soft state removal. I believe that
explicit confirmations of state removals and notifications in error cases
support to quickly delete the old state.

The draft also talks about Multihomed mobile environments and about MNs
with multiple interfaces. Multiple interfaces could be used simultaneously
when a handoff occurs to reduce the latency. When using two interfaces,
the second could perform the scanning for new channels in the background
while the first operates normally. The scanning for new channels is quite
time consuming. When scanning, authentication and reassociation is done,
one can switch to the second device.

Is this a possible approach for NSIS mobility or is the MIPv6 Fast Handover
(RFC 4068) more preferred? The disadvantage of the two radio model is the 
higher power consumption for mobile devices. But as long as there are not
continous Ping-Pong handoffs the second device could be used only for
periodic scannings.

Bernd

Hi Jerry and all,

:-)

I believe that this is not a big problem. Even if the RMF parses the
parameters sequentially, the whole object can be accessed any time. You
can do the manipulation on the object level or you can consider the
QSPEC as a (char-)array and the manipulation can be done on the byte-
or bit-level. And it is passed as an entire object back to the NSLP.

Bernd

> We have a question regarding QSPEC implementation.  In Section 4.3.3.1 (Reservation Failure & Error E-Flag) of the QSPEC draft http://ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nsis-qspec-11.txt <http://ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nsis-qspec-11.txt>  we describe the dual use of the E-flag.

> We'd like your opinion and others' opinion on the NSIS implementation list RE a possible issue with the 'overloading' of the E-Flag.  As described in Section 4.3.3.1 the E-flag has a dual purpose and can mean either 'QSPEC parameter not met' or 'QSPEC parameter error'.  As described, if the E flag is set for erroneous parameters, it MUST NOT be set for parameters not met, and visa versa.  I.e., the use of the E flag is completely disjoint for the two cases.

> However, what if a QSPEC contains n parameters. The RMF parses the parameters sequentially, and the first parameter is not met and its E-Flag is raised.  The parsing continues, everything is fine.  But the nth parameter is erroneous. Its E-Flag is raised.  What we currently require is the RMF goes back to the first parameter and unsets the E-Flag.

> Hi,

> the NSIS team of the University of Goettingen is proud to announce the release of a new development version of our NSIS package, which offers a lot of new features. We now support Traffic Control (tc) on Linux to really reserve resources and allow the integration of NSIS/QoS into applications by offering a QoS NSLP API. This development version also comes with a lot of bugfixes and updates to new draft versions of GIST and QoS NSLP.

>

> The Windows XP version is a demonstration prototype, which is able to detect the UDP port used by Skype[2] and trigger the local QoS NSLP daemon to request resources for phone calls.
> 
> In addition, we support OpenWRT, which is a Linux distribution for embedded devices, i.e. broadband Wireless LAN / DSL routers. On a lot of such routers, like the Linksys WRT54G (see the OpenWRT homepage[1] for a list of supported hardware), OpenWRT can be installed as an alternative firmware.
> 
>  
> 
> All new features combined, NSIS usage in SOHO networks becomes reality! 
> 
> The Windows machine triggers the request and the DSL router reserves the resources by the use of the Traffic Control tool.
> 
>  
> 
> You can find the development versions for all platforms of the NSIS package on our beta version page. The ChangeLog which lists all changes is also available on that page. Please see the individual README files on how to use the packages.
