Hi Folks, My thought at this point is that we would be unlikely to get further comments on the RFC, so we should put together a short draft and get it approved as an RFC to correct the error. However, I'll open the floor to see if people expect to have other fixes.

A RFC can not be changed. The only way is to produce a new RFC... We can have a small RFC just stating that, but it has to start as an ID. We can, of course, wait for more issues to progress such an ID to the RFC. Lyndon, what do you suggest? Should we just write this very small ID and progress it to RFC status? > > Regards, > > Ken > > -----Original Message----- > From: Michael Mentz [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Monday, June 12, 2006 3:50 AM > To: Michael Tuexen; ankur arora > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: RE: [Sigtran] Conflict in IUA and DUA management message > formessagetype 5 > > Hey Ankur, Michael, all > > Yes, something has to change, looking at the timeline of events in > this class :- > > > Starting with RFC3057, the MGMT class was :- > > Management (MGMT) Messages > > 0 Error (ERR) > 1 Notify (NTFY) > 2 TEI Status Request > 3 TEI Status Confirm > 4 TEI Status Indication > 5 to 127 Reserved by the IETF > 128 to 255 Reserved for IETF-Defined MGMT extensions > > DUA RFC4129, then extended this by adding :- > > 5 DLC Status Request > 6 DLC Status Confirm > 7 DLC Status Indication > > RFC4233 comes out with :- > > Management (MGMT) Messages > > 0 Error (ERR) > 1 Notify (NTFY) > 2 TEI Status Request > 3 TEI Status Confirm > 4 TEI Status Indication > 5 TEI Query Request > 6 to 127 Reserved by the IETF > 128 to 255 Reserved for IETF-Defined MGMT extensions > > > > Oops - RFC4233 should be :- > > Management (MGMT) Messages > > 0 Error (ERR) > 1 Notify (NTFY) > 2 TEI Status Request > 3 TEI Status Confirm > 4 TEI Status Indication > 5 to 7 Defined in RFC4129 (DUA Status) > 8 TEI Query Request > 9 to 127 Reserved by the IETF > 128 to 255 Reserved for IETF-Defined MGMT extensions > > Not exactly pretty, but correct. > > In the meantime, there is a decision to resolve as to how to handle > implementations that use (or share) the MGMT Type 6. > (ie, is it a DUA Status Request or a TEI Query Request)? > > The SCTP Payload ID could be used, but is not a 100% guarantee. > (Consider ASP with some Q931 and some DPNSS interfaces, if the > implementation is good, then the SCTP PPID would reflect the type of > interface as the message relates to an InteraceID) IMO, I wouldn't > trust this too much, but would aid in decision making. > > I've looked DLCI encoding to see if there is a difference there, but > no avail. > > In DUA, the DLCI field has a different format, in accordance with the > ND1301:2001/03 (formerly BTNR 188) [2]. > > 0 1 > 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 > +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ > |0 0 0 0 0 0 0|V|0|Channel No.|1| > +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ > > RFC4233 (S = SPR) > > 0 1 > 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 > +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ > | SAPI |S|0| TEI |1| > +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ > > > No 100% way to resolve it in the spec from what I can see, your > decision in how to handle it would have to be based on the > provisioning of the interface. > > Cheers, > Mike > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Michael Tuexen [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: 10 June 2006 10:40 > To: ankur arora > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Sigtran] Conflict in IUA and DUA management message for > messagetype 5 > > This is a bug...
