Hi there

I have reviewed this draft for the routing directorate as part of preparing it for IETF last call and IESG review.

I was familiar with this document from the time that I chaired the PCE working group, but this was the first time I read it all the way through and paid attention to all details.  I found it easy to read and understand.  I think it is basically ready to go with a few small clarifications and nits, below.

Cheers
Jon

Comments
Section 3 is somewhat redundant IMO.

<RG> We can keep it given the Figure showing the extensions unless there is a preference to remove it.

4.1 you should ideally provide a reference for how to do MBB signalling.

<RG> Added [RFC3209].

4.3 “Similarly, if a PCC gets overwhelmed due to signaling churn, it can notify the PCE to temporarily suspend new LSP setup requests.”  I think this is covered by 5.7 as well as the PCE case, but you only refer to 5.7 for the latter. Please point to 5.7 for both cases.

<RG> Added.

5.1 Not a big deal, but I wonder if there is any practical reason to differentiate the final two bullets.

<RG> There is a precedence for the second bullet error message in [RFC 8231] (e.g. error-value 2). The first bullet error message just comes from the existing behaviour without this extension.

5.6 Why are AUTO-BANDWIDTH-ATTRIBUTES required (MUST) in the LSPA object of a PCRpt?  If the LSP is PCE-initiated, then the PCE already knows what attributes were specified.  If the LSP is PCC-Initiated, then the attributes are the PCC’s business – the PCE can’t change them (per 5.5) and I don’t think the PCE even needs to know what they are.

<RG> Agree. Removed the sentence.

7.2 Misuses RFC 2119 language to request an action from a working group.  In other documents (when there is not already a draft in progress to do it) we have reworded this as “the YANG / MIB could be updated” etc.

<RG> Updated the text.

Nits
5: “Extensions to the PCEP” would sound better as “PCEP Extensions”

<RG> Fixed.

7: In RFC 6123 it says “The Manageability Considerations section SHOULD be placed immediately before the Security Considerations section in any Internet-Draft.” – but here, it comes after.

<RG> Updated.

Thanks,
Rakesh
