Subject: orientation

Henrik,

Looking up my documentation on orientation I see that I came up with this definition:


Orientation

·         Orientation attribute is used to assign a direction to a bidirectional STP to remove ambiguity when performing path computation.  Orientation type is ingress or egress.  Ingress/Egress is relative to the Network.



See the attached document for discussion, but I think that we can drop the orientation attribute as there are other ways of solving the problem.



Guy
