Hi Saumya, I fail to see why you are asking for a discussion on draft-saumvinayak-bess-all-df-bum before draft-ietf-bess-evpn-mh-pa can pass WG Last Call. Your draft addresses a completely different use-case, that we can discuss separately, but it has nothing to do with draft-ietf-bess-evpn-mh-pa, which is already deployed in many networks.
Can you clarify what you meant, please? Thanks.

Name: draft-saumvinayak-bess-all-df-bum Revision: 00 Title: EVPN Mac Dampening Back-off Document date: 2021-09-03 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 7 Abstract: The Designated forwarder concept is leveraged to prevent looping of BUM traffic into tenant network sourced across NVO fabric for multihoming deployments. [RFC7432] defines a prelimnary approach to select the DF for an ES,VLAN or ES,Vlan Group panning across multiple NVE's. [RFC8584] makes the election logic more robust and fine grained inculcating fair election of DF handling most of the prevalent use-cases. This document presents a deployment problem and a corresponding solution which cannot be easily resolve by rules mentioned in [RFC7432] and [RFC8584].

Regarding the section specifying procedures for all DF Election algorithms: it is included per a previous review comment, primarily to be comprehensive for all existing DF Algos. I agree the result may generally not vary much but the details of the procedure need to be specified. I hope this clears up any confusion.

The following are my comments. == Abstract - I think it would be better to list the RFC rather than say "EVPN standard", since EVPN standard is an evolving term. - "support of port-active" -> "support for port-active" - The last line of the abstract should be moved to the introduction. Section 1 - "The determinism provided by active-standby per interface is also required for certain QOS features to work." Can you provide an example of this? - Change "A new term of load-balancing mode, port-active load- balancing is then defined." to "A new load-balancing mode, port-active load-balancing is defined." - Change "This draft describes how that new redundancy mode can be supported via EVPN" to "This draft describes how that new load balancing mode can be supported via EVPN" (Just for consistency, I think it would be better to search the doc throughout and make sure that "redundancy" is not being used in place of "load balancing", since we are defining a new load balancing method, not a new redundancy method/topology.) - Is "Bundle-Ethernet interfaces" a well-known term? I think it may be better to drop Bundle. I am not sure if what is meant here is "members of a LAG". - "multi-homing to CE" -> "multi-homing to the CE". Section 2 - Change "form a bundle and operate as a Link Aggregation Group (LAG)" to "form and operate as a Link Aggregation Group (LAG)" (In EVPN bundling normally refers to many:1 mapping of VLAN to VNI/service instance). - Include reference for ICCP. - Change "CE device connected to Multi-homing PEs may has" to "CE device connected to multi-homing PEs may have" - Change "Links in the Ethernet Bundle" to "links in the LAG" - Change "Any discrepancies from this list is left for future study." to "Any discrepancies from this list are left for future study." Section 3 - Missing period at the end of (b). - Layer2 attributes -> Layer-2 attributes. Section 4.2/4.3 I got a bit confused here. The draft discusses Modulo, HRW. Do we essentially end up with a single active link, but just that which link is chosen is dependent on the algorithm? If so, what is the benefit of doing so? I can see why multiple algorithms are of value when we are doing VLAN-based load balancing to multiple active links. Section 5 - "Bundle-Ethernet" -> "LAG" Section 5.1 - "per ES routes for fast convergence" -> "per ES route for fast convergence" Section 5.2 - "per EVI routes" -> "per EVI route" Section 7 - spurious 'g'. - missing period under the second sub-bullet of point 'f'.
