Hi, Carlos and other authors






I found there are some problems of pseudo-code given in section 4.4, such as:






4. Label Operation Check


***problem 1***


see the first case: If the label operation is "Pop and Continue Processing" 


the excecution of this case will ignore Egress FEC Validation of any new added tunnel.






***problem 2***


Please search "If the Return Code is 1", would it need to be changed to "If FEC-status is 1" ?






6. Egress FEC Validation


***problem 3***


Why not worry about the Label_L and FEC maybe extracted from inconsistent layer here? That is, why not use stack-D to ensure consistent layer, as stack-D include complete labels but stack-R not.






Thanks
