RE: I-D ACTION:draft-malis-pwe3-cell-transport-00.txt

Hi,

The OAM implications of this mode is completely different from N:1 cell mode.
For example you can't generate AIS on either PE side. You can't also do a
CE-PE ATM connectivity test. So simply referring to [ATM-ENCAPS] draft 
(which BTW should be changed to reference 3) is not adequate to describe this mode. 

A solution for CE-PE connectivity test in ATM layer and downstream alarm suppression
is needed. 

Thanks,
-Shahram

To remove yourself from the IETF Announcement list, send a message to 
ietf-announce-request with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-malis-pwe3-cell-transport-00.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt


Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	[e-mail].
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-malis-pwe3-cell-transport-00.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
