The following minor items from my review do not seem to have been dealt 
with.  They are rephrased ehre for clarity:

     Section 5.2 still says in the definition of Cloud Access that 
"[a]ll sites in the L2VPN MUST be authorized ..." while section 5.3.2 
says SHOULD, with clear instructions for how to handle exceptions.  I 
presume 5.2 should say SHOULD?

     Section 5.3 still talks about a site having multiple locations 
without any specific requirement that there be internal connectivity 
among those locations.  I understand that the model does not represent 
that connectivity.  But it seems pretty clear that things will break if 
that connectivity is not present.

      Section 5.5.1.2 on connecting to multiple VPNs still talks about 
prefixes.  This is, as far as I know, an L2VPN service.  And L2VPNs work 
in MAC addresses, which do not use prefix based routing.  I think the 
solution is to replace "destination-based routing" with "MAC destination 
based forwarding", and to replace "mapping of its prefixes" with 
"mapping of its MAC addresses".
      Given that this is MAC address based forwarding, I think there 
also needs to be some text about what happens with BUM packets?

     In section 5.5.2.2 it is still unclear what it means to name LANs 
in a site.

     IN section 5.6, the text says that although constraints must be 
met, some specific constraints are just hints.  I would have thought 
those would be something other than constraints, but okay.  However, the 
wording is "Parameters such as ... as special constraints are just 
hints"  given the use of "such as", this implies that maybe some other 
constraints are special and just hints.  But the reader has no idea 
whether there are other hints.

Yours,
Joel
