Hi Adrian, Thanks for the reply. Okay, so understood that ITU already have defined the data plane requirements for grouping of flexible grid frequency slots. So then is correct to state that the following is already defined in ITU data plane: 1. Are there any specific Latency/differential delay constraints to group adjacent slots? 2. Are there any constraints/limit on how many of these slots are allowed to be grouped? 3. Can the signal carried by these frequency slots must have the same modulation format or different? 4 What type of signals can be mapped to these frequency slots? On the use case the composite label is addressing: 5. What is the use case and what are the use case requirements? 6. Are there any implications of this grouping to route computations? 7. What type of client signals 100G, 200G, etc. this solution is addressing. Suggest if you would like to keep this section in this document, address the above comments either via adding specific references to ITU spec and adding some further information in the intended use case.

We currently have: Section 1 This document relies on [G.694.1] for the definition of the optical data plane and does not make any updates to the work of the ITU-T in that regard. Section 2.1 The slots in the set could potentially be contiguous or non- contiguous (as allowed by the definitions of the data plane) and could be signaled as a single LSP or constructed from a group of LSPs. --- Maybe the parentheses are not clear and should say "(only as allowed...." Section 4.3 At the time of writing [G.694.1] only supports only groupings of adjacent slots (i.e., without intervening unused slots that could be used for other purposes) of identical width (same value of m), and the component slots must be in increasing order of frequency (i.e., increasing order of the value n). The mechanism defined here MUST NOT be used for other forms of grouping unless and until those forms are defined and documented in Recommendations published by the ITU-T. So...

Personally I have nothing to add here, but if you have then please show it to us. Maybe it would also help to say why you think this explanation should go in this document (which is not the first in the series) rather than in the more general discussion document that is the framework. I note that the framework already goes into some considerable detail about what media channels and network media channels are in the context of flexigrid. Ciao, Adrian
