This is great, Ben. Just a few minor things: > +Out-of-band control has the following benefits: > + > + - Simplicity: Out-of-band control slightly simplifies the switch > + implementation. > + > + - Reliability: Excessive switch traffic volume cannot interfere > + with control traffic.
Do you think it's worth mentioning that we now set the DSCP bits so that people can prevent some of this in their "core" switches and routers? > +The following points describe important special cases of this > +principle. > + > + In-band control must be implemented regardless of whether the > + switch is connected.

This is done You can drop either the "by" or "through".
