<RG> Yes, that's a good suggestion, we can include Ethernet PW in the next
revision.

<RG> Yes, we could add a table for PW type and STAMP format to be used in
the next revision. For example, the following PW could use STAMP packet
without IP/UDP header.

   1. MPLS Ethernet PW Data Traffic [RFC4448]
   2. L2-Specific Sublayer (L2SS) used in L2TPv3 PW Data Traffic [RFC3931]
   3. Private Line Emulation [draft-ietf-pals-ple] Data Traffic
   4. TDM over IP [RFC5087] Data Traffic (no IP Header case)

<RG> Yes, that's a good point. There are three types defined in RFC 5085.
The scope of the draft is type 3 (TTL expiry). We can add some text for
other types for completeness.

<RG> Yes, agree. We can include MPLS LSP in the next revision.

thanks,
Rakesh
