IESG Telechat date: 6/2



Summary:

The document is ready. It explains in a clear and detailed manner the operational experience in the design of large data centers using L3 only devices, Clos topology and BGP as routing protocol. I am not a routing expert, so I cannot validate all the statements made in the document, but the explanation seems clear and makes sense. The only comment I have is related to the lack of expansion of some of the acronyms (e.g. ASN, FIB ,etc.) - even if they are obvious for routing experts it would help to expand them at first occurrence.
