Hi Yaakov, The use case below may work, but does not mean asymmetric CW for PW would work in all cases. One example is, when CW is used for packet fragmentation, if asymmetric CW is used, packet fragmentation may not be achieved in one direction, and lead to pack loss. Other examples would be OAM tools for PW. IMO, we could consider asymmetric CW as a special implemenation case.
