Dear Editor Madison, Thank you for your careful work! I approve the document in its current form with the following suggestions.
Introduction Current: In the overlay network, the VPN has been defined as the network construct to provide the required connectivity for different services or customers. Multiple VPN flavors can be considered to create that construct [RFC4026]. In the underlay network, the NRP is used to represent a subset of the network resources and associated policies in the underlay network. An NRP can be associated with a dedicated or shared network topology to select or specify the set of links and nodes involved.Suggestion:In the overlay network, the VPN has been defined as the network construct to provide the required connectivity for different services or customers. Multiple VPN flavors can be considered to create that construct [RFC4026]. In the underlay network, the NRP is used to represent a subset of the network resources and associated policies in the underlay network. Reason: We do not need to repeat the following sentence here since it is stated in the the end of the previous two paragraph. An NRP can be associated with a dedicated or shared network topology to select or specify the set of links and nodes involved. 3.1. Performance GuaranteesCurrent: Time transfer is an example service that needs a performance guarantee, although it is in the nature of time that the service might be delivered by the underlay as a shared service and not provided through different enhanced VPNs.Suggestion: Time transfer is an example service that needs this performance guarantee, although it is in the nature of time that the service might be delivered by the underlay as a shared service and not provided through different enhanced VPNs. 3.2.1. Requirements on Traffic IsolationCurrent:An enhanced VPN service customer may request traffic isolation together with other operator-defined service characteristics. The exact details about the expected behavior need to be specified in the service request so that meaningful service assurance and fulfillment feedback can be exposed to the customers.Suggestion:An enhanced VPN service customer may request traffic isolation together with other operator-defined service characteristics. The exact details about the expected behavior need to be specified in the service request so that meaningful service assurance and fulfillment feedback can be exposed to the customer.
