Hello authors,



I have a couple of comments.



1.
   A received Prefix Originator Sub-TLV that has an invalid length (not
   4 or 16) or a Reachable Address containing an invalid IPv4 or IPv6
   address (dependent on address family of the associated prefix) MUST
   be considered invalid and ignored.  Additionally, reception of such
   Sub-TLV SHOULD be logged as an error (subject to rate-limiting).

   reachable address belonging to the originating node to set in the
   Router Address field.  Such mechanisms are outside the scope of this
   document.


Originating -> originating



I assume that the “Router address” picked by a router could be one of the addresses advertised by it with “N-bit” (Node SID) set or some other reachable address which uniquely identifies the router.
