Title: Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) Extensions for
Signaling Multipath Information Reviewer: David Mandelberg Review result: Has
Nits

(nit) Could zero weights in the MULTIPATH-WEIGHT TLV trigger a denial of
service from dividing by zero? Would it make sense to require Weight to be
non-zero?

(nit) Section 3.4 says "If no opposite-direction path exists, then this field
MUST be set to 0, a value reserved to indicate the absence of a Path ID." What
should an implementation do if it receives a PATH-ATTRIB with multiple
MULTIPATH-OPPDIR-PATH TLVs, some of which have zero Opposite Direction Path ID
and some have non-zero Opposite Direction Path ID? If one implementation treats
that as no opposite path (ignoring the non-zeroes) and another implementation
ignores the zeroes, could that be a security issue?

Otherwise, looks good.
