    Summary:
    
    This draft is on the right track but has open issues, described in the 
    review.
    
    Issues:
    
    Major: 0
    Minor: 3
    Nits:  1
    
    1) MINOR:
    
    The abstract says:
    
        This
        document defines only one type of MSD, but defines an encoding that
        can support other MSD types.
    
    and later section 1 says:
    
        It also defines
        the Base MPLS Imposition MSD type.
    
    I can find nothing in the document that does this definition. It seems 
    that this definition is actually done by 
    draft-ietf-isis-segment-routing-msd, which is referenced. The text needs 
    to agree with the structuring of the documents.
[jeff] ack, in the previous version BMI was defined on both, ospf and isis, 
removed
    
    2) MINOR:
    
    Section 1 also says:
    
        Although MSD
        advertisements are associated with Segment Routing, the
        advertisements MAY be present even if Segment Routing itself is not
        enabled.
    
    I found nothing else in the document that elaborated on this. Further 
    explanation is needed, in a section other than the introduction.
[jeff] the meaning of the statement is that MSD MAY be advertised even if 
Segment Routing is not enabled, ie MSD(s) advertisement could be used by any 
other application that would find the data provided of value. I would 
appreciate, if you could be more specific about what's missing. 
    
    3) MINOR:
    
    The first paragraph of section 4 says:
    
        When Link MSD is present for a given MSD type, the value of the Link
        MSD MUST take preference over the Node MSD.  When a Link MSD type is
        not signalled but the Node MSD type is, then the value of that *Link*
        MSD type MUST be considered as the corresponding *Node* MSD type
        value.
    
    This appears to have scrambled the use of Link and Node a bit. I think 
    it is intended to say:
    
        When Link MSD is present for a given MSD type, the value of the Link
        MSD MUST take preference over the Node MSD.  When a Link MSD type is
        not signalled but the Node MSD type is, then the value of that Node
        MSD type MUST be considered as the corresponding Link MSD type value.

    4) NIT:
    
    Section 2 uses: 'The Type:' when documenting the "Type" field of the 
    TLV,  while sections 3 uses: 'Type:'. These ought to be consistent.
