Hi Neeraj,

Thanks. However, you did not address my comment about ‘EVPN IRB’ and ‘EVPN-IRB’ 
terms. Are they the same thing or somehow different? If not, can you pick one 
and use it throughout the document.

Jim

Subject: Re: [bess] Jim Guichard's No Objection on 
draft-ietf-bess-evpn-irb-extended-mobility-18: (with COMMENT)

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the review and comments. Have uploaded rev19 to address comments 
received from you and other reviewers.

Please see inline for details.


I am having trouble phasing the first sentence of the Abstract. The text says:

   This document specifies extensions to Ethernet VPN (EVPN) Integrated
   Routing and Bridging (IRB) procedures specified in RFC7432 and
   RFC9135 to enhance the mobility mechanisms for EVPN IRB-based
   networks.

Are the extensions for both EVPN and IRB procedures or just IRB procedures. It
seems like the latter. If that is the case, then only RFC9135 is relevant and
not RFC7432 (which should be removed from the text). In addition, you use both
'EVPN IRB' and 'EVPN-IRB' terms interchangeably so please pick one and use it
throughout the document.

[NM]: EVPN IRB is covered by a combination of RFC 7432 and RFC 9135. Since RFC 
9135 pretty much leverages the mobility procedure for IRB use cases as is from 
RFC 7432 and does not introduce any new sequence number assignment methods, 
mobility procedures across both of these RFCs are insufficient to cover all 
EVPN IRB use cases. We feel that it is best that this draft clearly calls out 
enhancements on top of both RFC 7432 and 9135. This was also the input from 
multiple reviewers earlier.


Section 2:

   *  Overlay: L3 and L2 Virtual Private Network (VPN) enabled via NVO,
      SRv6, or MPLS service layer encapsulation.

[NM]: addressed in rev19.

Thanks,
Neeraj
