Re: [L1vpn] Your Discusses and Comments on draft-ietf-l1vpn-basic-mode-04.txt

Thanks Pasi,

We're discussing this with the authors.

A possible substitution is...

"A two octets field whose value indicates address family of the CPI.
 This value is taken from [RFC1700]."

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for the update! I'm happy with the changes, with one
possible exception (see below).

The text now says "A two octets field whose value indicates address
family of the CPI. This value is assigned in [L1VPN-BGP-AD]."

[L1VPN-BGP-AD] indeed assigns a new SAFI value (69) for auto-discovery
information. However, I originally thought this field would contain
value like "IPv4" or "IPv6" (and was expecting a pointer to a document
specifying what the exact numbers for these are).

Can you confirm that using the value defined in [L1VPN-BGP-AD] is
indeed correct? (Or if it's not, send David text for RFC Editor
note fixing this.)

Best regards,
Pasi
