Dear authors,

I have a question regarding Section 5.1, specifically about the encoding of
the Source TLV.

   Source PE TLV is defined to identify the source of the VPN routes.
   Using source PE and RD to filter VPN routes together can achieve more
   refined route control.  The source PE TLV contains the following
   types:

   *  In single-domain or Option C cross-domain scenario, NEXT_HOP
      attribute is unchanged during routing transmission, so it can be
      used as source address.

         Type = 1, Length = 4 octets, value = NEXT_HOP.

         Type = 2, Length = 16 octets, value = NEXT_HOP.


Despite the fact that this section covers a case when NEXT_HOP is not
changed it does not cover the case when a single PE uses several NEXT_HOP's
values for the same SAFI (specifically IP VPN). So I don't think that
the highlighted part is true. Isn't it better to specify using some
internal router's value (e.g., router ID)? Using a NEXT_HOP's value can be
only a last resort option when we don't have the TLV and community encoded.

Any thoughts?
