Greg, I agree “MUST use” doesn’t read well. s/use/expect/ is good with me.

I've came across what looks as simple editorial change. Appreciate your comment. In the second paragraph of section 4.8 Packet consumption on tails the following For multipoint LSPs, when IP/UDP encapsulation of BFD control packets is used, MultipointTail MUST use destination UDP port "3784" ... reads akwardly because, I think, of 'MUST use'. I propose simple s/use/look for/ or s/use/expect/. What do you think? Is the text god as-is or minor editing may help?

What you proposed below is fine. Regards, Reshad.

I think we can add text to the security considerations to address the concerns below, e.g. A tail SHOULD prevent the number of MultipointTail sessions from exceeding the number of expected streams. The concern expressed in b) cannot be fixed by what I proposed because of multiple streams. So just preventing the number of MultipointTail sessions from exceeding the number of expected streams should be good enough. Regards, Reshad. If we make it normative SHOULD, i.e. s/should/SHOULD/ in the third recommendation to the implementers: The implementation SHOULD have a reasonable upper bound on the number of MultipointTail sessions that can be created, with the upper bound potentially being computed based on the number of multicast streams that the system is expecting. Or keep the lower case as it is consistent with the rest of the section, e.g. 'a MultipointTail session should not be created'?
