Subject: Re: AUTH48: RFC-to-be 9716 
<draft-ietf-mpls-spring-inter-domain-oam-20> for your review

[External Email. Be cautious of content]


Authors,

While reviewing this document during AUTH48, please resolve (as necessary) the 
following questions, which are also in the XML file.

1) <!-- [rfced] Title

a.) As "Path Monitoring System/Head-end" is not mentioned in the abstract, may 
we clarify the title as follows so that it aligns more closely with the 
abstract? It will also help avoid the awkward hyphenation of "Path Monitoring 
System/Head-end based".

Original:

Path Monitoring System/Head-end based MPLS Ping and Traceroute in Inter-
                    domain Segment Routing Networks

Perhaps:

Mechanisms for MPLS Ping and Traceroute Procedures in Inter-Domain Segment 
Routing Networks

<SH> OK

b.) Note that we have updated the short title, which appears in the running 
header in the PDF output. Please review.

Original:
Inter-as-OAM

Current:
MPLS Ping and Traceroute in Inter-Domain SR Networks

-->
<SH> OK

2) <!-- [rfced] FYI - We have slightly adjusted Figure 1 to reduce the width of 
the artwork in order to fit the 72-character limit. Please review. -->
<SH> OK

3) <!-- [rfced] Please review the following questions regarding the text below:

a.) To improve readability, may we remove the "/" characters and update the 
text as follows?

b.) In addition, may we expand "SID" as follows (as Section 3.6 of RFC 7322 
suggests that abbreviations should be expanded upon first use)?

Original:

   AS1, AS2, and AS3 are SR enabled and the egress links have PeerNode
   SID/PeerAdj SID/ PeerSet SID configured and advertised via [RFC9086].
   PeerNode SID/PeerAdj SID/PeerSet SID are referred to as Egress Peer
   Engineering SIDs (EPE- SIDs) in this document.

Perhaps:

   AS1, AS2, and AS3 are SR enabled, and the egress links have the following
   Segment Identifiers (SIDs) configured and advertised via [RFC9086]:
   PeerNode SID, PeerAdj SID, and PeerSet SID. The PeerNode SID, PeerAdj
   SID, and PeerSet SID are referred to as Egress Peer Engineering SIDs (EPE-
   SIDs) in this document.

-->
<SH> OK

4) <!--[rfced] To avoid the repetition of "based", may we update this sentence 
as follows?

Original:

   [RFC7743] describes an Echo-relay based solution based on advertising
   a new Relay Node Address Stack TLV containing a stack of Echo-relay
   IP addresses.

Perhaps:

   [RFC7743] describes an Echo-relay-based solution that is predicated on
   advertising a new Relay Node Address Stack TLV containing a stack of
   Echo-relay IP addresses.

-->
<SH> OK

5) <!-- [rfced] Please review our questions regarding the citations in the text 
below:

Original:

   The connectivity to the remote PEs can be achieved using BGP-Labeled
   Unicast (BGP-LU) [RFC8277] or by stacking the labels for each domain
   as described in [RFC8604].

a.) We were unable to find the term "BGP-Labeled Unicast (BGP-LU)" used in RFC 
8277 or other previous RFCs. How may we update this citation accordingly?

b.) We were unable to find content about "stacking labels" in RFC 8064. Please 
review and let us know if any updates are needed.

-->
<SH> The connectivity to the remote PEs can be achieved by  BGP advertisements
With  MPLS label bound to the prefix as described in [RFC 8277] or by building 
paths using list of segments as described in [RFC8604].

6) <!-- [rfced] Please review our updates to the text below to ensure these 
changes do not alter your intended meaning.

Original:

   This document defines the Type-A, Type-C, and Type-D Segment sub-TLVs
   usage and processing when it appears in TLV 21(Reply Path TLV).

Current:

   This document defines the usage and processing of the Type-A, Type-C, and
   Type-D Segment sub-TLVs when they appear in TLV 21 (Reply Path TLV).

-->
<SH> ok

7) <!-- [rfced] May we add "(MBZ)" to the text following Figure 4 to reflect 
similar text that appears following Figure 5?

Original (appears after Figure 4):

   When A-flag is unset, this
   field has no meaning and thus MUST be set to zero on transmission and
   ignored on receipt.

Original (appears after Figure 5):

   When A-flag is unset, this
   field has no meaning and thus MUST be set to zero (MBZ) on transmission and
   ignored on receipt.

-->
<SH> OK

8) <!-- [rfced] FYI - We have removed the second sentence from the definition 
below as it repeats information from the first sentence. Please review and let 
us know if further updates are needed.

Original:

   SID: optional: 4-octet field containing label, TC, S and TTL as
   defined in Section 4.1.  The SID is optional and specifies a 4-octet
   MPLS SID containing label, TC, S, and TTL as defined in Section 4.1.
   When the SID field is present, it MUST be used for constructing the
   Reply Path.

Current:

   SID: Optional 4-octet field containing the labels TC, S, and TTL as
   defined in Section 4.1.  When the SID field is present, it MUST be
   used for constructing the Reply Path.

-->
<SH> OK

9) <!-- [rfced] FYI - We have updated the text below for clarity; please review.

Original:

   If optional MPLS SID is present in the Type-C/Type-D segments SID
   MUST be used to encode the echo reply with MPLS labels.

Current:

   If an optional MPLS SID is present in the Type-C/Type-D segments, the SID
   MUST be used to encode the echo reply with MPLS labels.

-->
<SH> OK

10) <!--[rfced] IANA queries

(Note: After this document completes AUTH48, we will ask IANA to update their 
registry accordingly.)
<SH> OK

a.) To reflect the definition of "Type-A", should a comma be added after "SID 
only" in the Sub-TLV Name of Sub-Type 46?

Current:

   Type-A:  SID only, in the form of an MPLS label
   ...
   +==========+====================================+=============+

<SH> OK

b.) As other values registered in the "Reply Path Return Codes" registry do not 
include periods, we have removed the periods from the descriptions of the 
following values registered by this document. Please let us know of any 
objections.

Original:

   TBA1     Use Reply Path TLV from this echo
            reply for building next echo request.

   TBA2     Local policy does not allow dynamic
            return Path building.

13) <!--[rfced] As the "/" character can mean "and", "or", or "and/or", "the 
controller/PMS or head-end node" is unclear in the sentence below. Please 
review and let us know how this sentence may be clarified.

Original:

   Topology of AS1 and AS2 are
   advertised via BGP-Link State (BGP-LS) to the controller/PMS or head-
   end node.

<SH> / means "OR" here.

14) <!-- [rfced] Please review our changes to the text below to ensure these 
updates do not alter your intended meaning.

Original:

   The same Reply Path TLV is sufficient for any router in AS2 to send the
   reply.  Because the first label(N-ASBR4) can direct echo reply to ASBR4 and
   the second one (EPE-ASBR4-ASBR1) to direct echo reply to AS1.
   ...
   The example described in the above paragraphs can be extended to
   multiple ASes by following the same procedure of each ASBR adding
   Node-SID and EPE-SID on receiving echo requests from neighboring AS.

Current:

   The same Reply Path TLV is sufficient for any router in AS2 to send the
   reply.  This is because the first label (N-ASBR4) can direct the echo reply
   to ASBR4 and the second one (EPE-ASBR4-ASBR1) can direct the echo reply to

<SH> OK

15) <!--[rfced] We are having some difficulty understanding how "while sending 
the echo reply" fits into this sentence. May we clarify this sentence as 
follows?

Original:

   ABR1 receives the echo request
   and while sending the echo reply adds its node Label to the Reply
   Path TLV and sets the Reply path return code to TBA1.

Perhaps:

   ABR1 receives the echo request, adds its node Label to the Reply
   Path TLV (while sending the echo reply), and sets the Reply path return
   code to 0x0006.

<SH> OK.

16) <!-- [rfced] Terminology:

a.) The following terms appear to be capitalized inconsistently throughout this 
document. Please review these different uses and let us know how to update for 
consistency.

BGP Peering Segments > BGP peering segments (per RFC 8402)
<SH> OK
Centralized BGP Egress Peer Engineering > centralized BGP Egress Peer
  Engineering (per RFC 9087)
<SH> OK


d.) FYI - We have removed quotation marks from around the following field names 
to reflect how field names are more commonly used throughout the text.

Original:

   The Segment Types described above contain the following flags in the
   "Flags" field (codes to be assigned by IANA from the new registry
   "Segment Sub-TLV Flags"):
   ...
   A-Flag: This flag indicates the presence of SR Algorithm ID in the
   "SR-Algorithm" field applicable to various segment Types.
