Hi Ross,
many thanks for you kind consideration. I agree and support the plan you've=
 set forward.
I believe Thomas Beckhaus agreed to proposed changes that address his MPLS-=
RT review.  Work on addressing comments by Nobo still continues. We'll try =
to upload the new version by the end of this week.

                Regards,

Greg;

Do you feel that you are ready to post the update?

I believe that the next steps here are for you to post the update (whenever=
 the authors feel that you are ready), for me to check with the MPLS-RT rev=
iewers to make sure that they are fine with the update, to do an IPR poll, =
and then to call for WG adoption.

Thanks, Ross

Subject: MPLS-RT review of draft-mirsky-mpls-bfd-directed-03

Hello,

I have been selected as reviewer of http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mirsky=
-mpls-bfd-directed-03.

I think the draft is coherent, technically sound and operational useful. It=
 extents the explicit path capability for the backward direction of _bidire=
ctional_ forwarding detection (BFD). The document is ready for WG adoption.

Some comments:

Section 1.1.1, Terminology:
I am not sure, whether the term _MPLS_ is really required in this section.

Section 3.1, "Case of MPLS Data Plane": Structure of sub-TLV specification.
The whole section describes, that three sub-TLV are specified for usage: "S=
tatic", "RSVP-TE" and "Segment Routing". For "Static" and "RSVP-TE", the dr=
aft refers to the according RFC (that's fine). But the structure of this se=
ction contains only a subsection for "Segment routing" and the reference to=
 the other sub-TLV is part of this subsection. I propose to add two additio=
nal subsections "Static" (3.1.x) and "RSVP-TE" (3.1.x) with the references =
and remove it from the subsection "Segment Routing" to be more coherent.

Section 3.1.2: "Segment Routing Tunnel Sub-TLV >
The section specifies the encoding of the SR tunnel Sub-TLV with the encodi=
ng of the label stack elements. I think it makes sense to describe the usag=
e of this information in the draft ("copy this information to the label sta=
ck"). Is the remote PE (initiator) allowed to add additional segments bases=
 on his local information or is the encoded label stack strict?

Section 3.3:
This section confused me. Maybe it should be considered to be rewritten (or=
 explained specifically to me).
Who is the _initiator_ in this case for the BFD reverse path scenario?

Section 3.4: "Return Codes"
The paragraph repeats the description text of the return code 2 times.  The=
 section specifies, that the egress LSR _MAY_ send back the return code. In=
 section 3.1.1, last paragraph, the behavior is specified, that the egress =
LSR may set up the BFD session or not, but in both cases, it sends back the=
 return code (are the MAYs are concatenated in the case, when the BFD sessi=
on is set up - see also comment from Nobo?). This implies, that the egress =
LSR _MUST_ send the return code, when the reverse path is not known.

Section 4 "Use case scenario":
The "value N" and "value M" are confusing, because it uses the same vocabul=
ary as the nodes in the network example (capital letter). It could be calle=
d "foobar" if it is not for interest.

Regards.

Thomas

<div>
<p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Ca=

or the backward direction of _<i>bidirectional</i>_ forwarding
 detection (BFD). The document is ready for WG adoption.<o:p></o:p></span><=

</div>
<div>
<p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Ca=

<p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Ca=

lane&#8221;: Structure of sub-TLV specification.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Ca=
libri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">The whole section describes, that three=
 sub-TLV are specified for usage: &#8220;Static&#8221;, &#8220;RSVP-TE&#822=
1; and &#8220;Segment Routing&#8221;. For &#8220;Static&#8221; and &#8220;R=
SVP-TE&#8221;, the draft refers to the according
 RFC (that&#8217;s fine). But the structure of this section contains only a=
 subsection for &#8220;Segment routing&#8221; and the reference to the othe=
r sub-TLV is part of this subsection. I propose to add two additional subse=
ctions &#8220;Static&#8221; (3.1.x) and &#8220;RSVP-TE&#8221; (3.1.x) with
 the references and remove it from the subsection &#8221;Segment Routing&#8=
221; to be more coherent.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Ca=
libri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">The section specifies the encoding of t=
he SR tunnel Sub-TLV with the encoding of the label stack elements. I think=
 it makes sense to describe the usage of this information
 in the draft (&#8220;copy this information to the label stack&#8221;). Is =
the remote PE (initiator) allowed to add additional segments bases on his l=
ocal information or is the encoded label stack strict?<o:p></o:p></span></p=

<div>
<p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Ca=

</div>
<div>
<p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Ca=
libri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">The paragraph repeats the description t=
ext of the return code 2 times.&nbsp; The section specifies, that the egres=
s LSR _<i>MAY</i>_ send back the return code. In section 3.1.1,
 last paragraph, the behavior is specified, that the egress LSR may set up =
the BFD session or not, but in both cases, it sends back the return code (a=
re the MAYs are concatenated in the case, when the BFD session is set up &#=
8211; see also comment from Nobo?). This
 implies, that the egress LSR _<i>MUST</i>_ send the return code, when the =
reverse path is not known.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=3D"MsoNormal"><span style=3D"font-size:10.0pt;font-family:&quot;Ca=
