Re: [Asap] Genart last call review of draft-ietf-asap-siptrunkingcapability-link-03

["Derek Engi (deengi)" <[e-mail]>]

Hi Dan, thanks so much for taking the time to review, here are our comments:

>> I would consider mentioning explicitly 'SIP trunking' in the Description of the 'sip-trunking-capability' link relation in the registry.

We went back and forth with how best to incorporate an explicit call out to SIP trunking in the IANA description. We felt that “automated peering and communication channel negotiation” gave a broader context rather than using trunking explicitly, where we then may have to explain nuance of what trunking is and where it occurs. Our preference would be to leave the definition as is since we feel it is intentionally broad.

>> Should not  [I-D.ietf-asap-sip-auto-peer] be a Normative Reference?

We intentionally left this as informative because the link type registration itself is not dependent on the ASAP draft. Since this registration does not have any implementation actions and is purely informational, we believe the ASAP draft that defines the capability set document will make a normative reference to this registration document.

Thanks again for all the feedback and comments.
Derek

Summary:

This is a short and clear document describing the usage of the
'sip-trunking-capability' link relation type by an enterprise SIP network to
retrieve a SIP trunking capability set document containing the capabilities and
configuration requirements of an ITSP.

Major issues:

Minor issues:

Nits/editorial comments:

1. The description of the 'sip-trunking-capability' link relation by IANA does
not seem to be fully consistent with the scope of the document as defined in
Section 1.

In Section 1:

The capability set document
   [I-D.ietf-asap-sip-auto-peer] encapsulates a set of characteristics
   of an ITSP, which when retrieved by enterprise telephony network
   devices allows for automated establishment of SIP [RFC3261] trunking
   between the two telephony networks.

Description:  Refers to a capability set document that defines
      parameters or configuration requirements for automated peering and
      communication channel negotiation of the Session Initiation
      Protocol (SIP).

I would consider mentioning explicitly 'SIP trunking' in the Description of the
'sip-trunking-capability' link relation in the registry.

2. Should not  [I-D.ietf-asap-sip-auto-peer] be a Normative Reference?
