As such, OAM messages MUST be encoded so that they exhibit identical entropy characteristics to data traffic in order that they share the same fate. It’s not obvious to me what you mean by “identical entropy characteristics to data traffic”. Surely, different flows may have different entropy characteristics, so, *which* data traffic? Similarly, with which data traffic are you saying the OAM messages must share fate? Donald proposed: How about something more like: EVPN Network OAM mechanisms MUST provide in-band monitoring capabilities. OAM messages SHOULD be encoded so that they exhibit similar entropy characteristics to data traffic in order maximize the fate sharing between OAM and data. That's fine. (s/in order maximize/in order to maximize/) I'm switching to "no objection" in anticipation of the document being updated. Previous comment: Thanks for the clear and readable document. I have one nit and one question. 1. Section 1, nit: “EVPN is an Layer 2” s/an/a/
