Just to close the loop on this... Thanks Francois for handling my comments!

Based on our offlist conversation, the following change was also agreed
upon...

OLD:
> “As examples, it could be learnt via configuration or using a signaling
> protocol."
> NEW:
> "As examples, it could be learnt via configuration or signaled by a
> controller.”


Thanks!
