Authors,

While reviewing this document during AUTH48, please resolve (as necessary) the 
following questions, which are also in the XML file.

1) <!--[rfced] May this be rephrased to the form of other definitions?

Original:
   Service carving:  DF Election is also referred to as "service
      carving" in [RFC7432]

Perhaps:
   Service carving:  This refers to DF Election, as defined in
      [RFC7432].

Or (if you decide to more closely match RFC 7432):

Perhaps:
   Service carving:  The default procedure for DF Election, as 
      detailed in [RFC7432].
-->


2) <!-- [rfced] Because RFC 5905 refers to the "prime epoch" as follows, 
would you like to update this sentence to match RFC 5905 more closely?

>From [RFC5905]:
   In the date and timestamp formats, the prime epoch, or base date of
   era 0, is 0 h 1 January 1900 UTC, when all bits are zero.


Current:
   The timestamp exchanged uses the NTP prime epoch of January 1, 1900
   [RFC5905] and an adapted form of the 64-bit NTP Timestamp Format.

Perhaps:
   The timestamp exchanged uses the NTP prime epoch of 0 h 1 January 
   1900 UTC [RFC5905] and an adapted form of the 64-bit NTP Timestamp 
   Format.
-->


3) <!-- [rfced] Regarding double figure titles.

a) FYI, for Figure 3, the title has been updated as follows
(rather than use two title lines). The figure appears to exactly 
match Figure 4 in RFC 8584.

Current:
   Figure 3: DF Election Extended Community (Figure 4 in RFC 8584)


b) FYI, for Figure 4, we have removed one line as follows because 
Figure 5 in RFC 8584 has been updated, and it has a different title 
("Figure 5: Bitmap Field in the DF Election Extended Community").

Original:
                    Figure 5: DF Election Capabilities

                     Figure 4: DF Election Capabilities

Current:
                     Figure 4: DF Election Capabilities


c) Would you like to make any of the following changes for clarity?

- update the figure title as follows:

   Figure 4: DF Election Capabilities (Updating Figure 5 in RFC 8584)

- or add lead-in text before Figure 4, such as the following:

   For the Bitmap field (2 octets), Figure 5 from [RFC8584] is 
   updated as follows:

- or change to OLD/NEW format (where OLD is the figure from RFC 8584 
  and NEW is the updated figure)
-->


4) <!--[rfced] Section 2.3: the new text.

a) Is the word "not" missing in 9.1 or 9.2? In other words, should
they be different ("If x is present" and "If x is not present")? 

b) Depending on your reply to the earlier question (#7), 
please let us know how "SCT timestamp" should be updated here.
If this is intended to refer to the new Extended Community, and
the name in the IANA registry is correct, then perhaps it would be 
updated as follows?

Original:
    9.1  If an SCT timestamp is present during the RCVD_ES event of
         Action 11, wait until the time indicated by the SCT minus
         skew before proceeding to step 9.3.

    9.2  If an SCT timestamp is present during the RCVD_ES event of
         Action 11, wait until the time indicated by the SCT before
         proceeding to step 9.4.

Perhaps:
    9.1  If a Service Carving Timestamp is present during the RCVD_ES event of
         Action 11, wait until the time indicated by the SCT minus
         skew before proceeding to step 9.3.

    9.2  If a Service Carving Timestamp is present during the RCVD_ES event of
         Action 11, wait until the time indicated by the SCT before
         proceeding to step 9.4.
-->


5) <!--[rfced] FYI, we updated "to partner PE1" (two instances) for clarity.
We assume the meaning is "its partner PE1" rather than "to partner with
PE1" or similar. Please review.

Original:
   3.  Advertisement: PE2 advertises RT-4, sent at t=100, to partner
       PE1.
[...]
   4.  Advertisement: PE2 advertises RT-4, sent at t=100, with a target
       SCT value of t=103 to partner PE1.

Current (parentheses as used in Section 3.1):
   3.  Advertisement: PE2 advertises RT-4, sent at t=100, to its partner
       (PE1).
[...]
   4.  Advertisement: PE2 advertises RT-4, sent at t=100, with a target
       SCT value of t=103 to its partner (PE1).
-->


6) <!--[rfced] Please clarify "the negative effect of the timer to allow".
May it be updated as shown or otherwise?

Original:
   Using the SCT approach, the negative effect of the timer to allow the
   reception of Ethernet Segment RT-4 from other PE nodes is mitigated.

Perhaps:
   The SCT approach mitigates the negative effect of the timer
   allowing the reception of Ethernet Segment RT-4 from other PE nodes.
-->


7) <!--[rfced] "Service Carving Time" vs. "Service Carving Timestamp"

The document and the IANA registry do not match regarding the name 
of the new BGP EVPN Extended Community; which one is correct? 
(Please see A vs. B below.) Based on your reply, please
review other sections for updates (examples below).

A) Original
   0x0F       Service Carving Time 

B) IANA registry (https://www.iana.org/assignments/bgp-extended-communities/)
   0x0F       Service Carving Timestamp


Examples of potential updates in Sections 2 and 2.1.

Original:
   A new BGP EVPN Extended Community, the Service Carving Time is ...

If the IANA registry is correct:
   A new BGP EVPN Extended Community, the Service Carving Timestamp, is ...


Original: 
   Figure 2: Service Carving Time

If the IANA registry is correct:
   Figure 2: Service Carving Timestamp  


Original:
   which are encoded in the Service Carving Time as follows:

If the IANA registry is correct: 
   which are encoded in the Service Carving Timestamp as follows:
-->


8) <!-- [rfced] Because this document updates RFC 8584, please
review the errata reported for RFC 8584 
(https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/rfc8584) 
and let us know if any updates are needed for this document.

Specifically, please review EID 7811 (https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid7811)
regarding Section 3.2 (HRW Algorithm for EVPN DF Election).
The text from the errata report does not appear in this document;
however, the HRW algorithm is mentioned.

(It appears no actions are needed for EID 5900, as
the term "Broadcast Domain (BD)" is not used in this document.)
-->


9) <!-- [rfced] Throughout the text, the following terminology appears to
be capitalized inconsistently. Please review these occurrences and let 
us know if/how they may be made consistent.

   DF Election vs. DF election
      (seems lowercase is used in RFC 8584 in running text, i.e., 
       outside titles or proper nouns like "DF Election Extended Community")

   Extended Community vs. extended community
   Fractional Seconds vs. fractional seconds
   Time Synchronization vs. time synchronization
-->


10) <!-- [rfced] Please review the "Inclusive Language" portion of the online 
Style Guide <https://www.rfc-editor.org/styleguide/part2/#inclusive_language>
and let us know if any changes are needed.  Updates of this nature typically
result in more precise language, which is helpful for readers.

For example, please consider whether the following should be updated: 
   "blackholing" (one instance):

  *  Prolonged traffic blackholing, if the timer value is too long
-->


Thank you.

  Please review the copyright notice and legends as defined in
  RFC 5378 and the Trust Legal Provisions 
  (TLP – https://trustee.ietf.org/license-info).

*  Semantic markup

  Please review the markup in the XML file to ensure that elements of  
  content are correctly tagged.  For example, ensure that <sourcecode> 
  and <artwork> are set correctly.  See details at 
  <https://authors.ietf.org/rfcxml-vocabulary>.

*  Formatted output

  Please review the PDF, HTML, and TXT files to ensure that the 
  formatted output, as generated from the markup in the XML file, is 
  reasonable.  Please note that the TXT will have formatting 
  limitations compared to the PDF and HTML.


Submitting changes
------------------

To submit changes, please reply to this email using ‘REPLY ALL’ as all 
the parties CCed on this message need to see your changes. The parties 
include:

  *  your coauthors

  *  rfc-edi...@rfc-editor.org (the RPC team)

  *  other document participants, depending on the stream (e.g., 
     IETF Stream participants are your working group chairs, the 
     responsible ADs, and the document shepherd).

  *  auth48archive@rfc-editor.org, which is a new archival mailing list 
     to preserve AUTH48 conversations; it is not an active discussion 
     list:

    *  More info:
       
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf-announce/yb6lpIGh-4Q9l2USxIAe6P8O4Zc
