2) <!--[rfced] Please clarify the antecedent of "this":
Original:
In all places Carrier-Grade NAT or CGN is used in this document, this
applies to proxies as well.

Either of the fixes proposed by Russ and Randy read well to me.
3) <!--[rfced] We had a few questions about the following text:
Original:
Prefix length files can contain sub-prefixes entries of a parent
prefix, which needs to be taken into account when processing these
files.
a) Please confirm the use of the plural "sub-prefixes".
Perhaps:
Prefix length files can contain sub-prefix entries of a parent
prefix,..
b) Might this sentence be rephrased as:
Perhaps:
Prefix length files can contain sub-prefix entries of a parent prefix; this
needs to be taken into account when processing these files.
-->
Option b) reads better to me.
7) <!-- [rfced] Regarding reference entries [INET6NUM] and [INETNUM]:
The original URLs for [INET6NUM] and [INETNUM] point to a page with an
"Sorry, we can't seem to find the page you're looking for" error
message.
We found the following URL that seems to contain the information from
the original URLs:
https://docs.db.ripe.net/RPSL-Object-Types/Descriptions-of-Primary-Objects
Is this the appropriate URL for these references?
-->
Yes, that's the appropriate URL. Given that the URL contains
descriptions for both the intetnum: and inetnum6: DB class, I suggest to
update the text as follows:
Original:
The reader may find [INETNUM] and [INET6NUM] informative, and certainly
more verbose, descriptions of the inetnum: database classes.
New:
The reader may find [DBOBJECTS] informative, and certainly more verbose,
descriptions of the inetnum: and inet6num: database classes.
[DBOBJECTS] should then replace [INET6NUM] and [INETNUM] in the references.
8) <!-- [rfced] Regarding reference entry [PREFIXLEN-FINDER:] Please review.
References to GitHub
repositories require a commit hash (see:
https://www.rfc-editor.org/styleguide/part2/#ref_repo). The original
date for this reference - June 2021 - does not appear in this
repositories commit history
(https://github.com/massimocandela/prefixlen-finder/commits/main/). May
we update this reference to use the most recent commit date and commit
hash?
Current:
[PREFIXLEN-FINDER]
"prefixlen-finder", June 2021,
<https://github.com/massimocandela/prefixlen-finder>.
Perhaps:
[PREFIXLEN-FINDER]
"prefixlen-finder", commit fa70e6b, 3 June 2025,
<https://github.com/massimocandela/prefixlen-finder>.
-->
10) <!--[rfced] We had the following questions/comments related to terminology
used throughout the document:
a) we have used the hyphenated end-site throughout; please let us know any
objections.
-->
Fine by me as well.
Cheers,

Thank you.

Instructions for Completing AUTH48
Your document has now entered AUTH48. Once it has been reviewed and
approved by you and all coauthors, it will be published as an RFC.
If an author is no longer available, there are several remedies
available as listed in the FAQ (https://www.rfc-editor.org/faq/).
You and you coauthors are responsible for engaging other parties
(e.g., Contributors or Working Group) as necessary before providing
your approval.
Planning your review
---------------------
Please review the following aspects of your document:
* RFC Editor questions
Please review and resolve any questions raised by the RFC Editor
that have been included in the XML file as comments marked as
follows:
<!-- [rfced] ... -->
These questions will also be sent in a subsequent email.
* Changes submitted by coauthors
Please ensure that you review any changes submitted by your
coauthors. We assume that if you do not speak up that you
agree to changes submitted by your coauthors.
* Content
Please review the full content of the document, as this cannot
change once the RFC is published. Please pay particular attention to:
- IANA considerations updates (if applicable)
- contact information
- references
* Copyright notices and legends
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
* [email protected] (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).
* [email protected], 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
* The archive itself:
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/browse/auth48archive/
* Note: If only absolutely necessary, you may temporarily opt out
of the archiving of messages (e.g., to discuss a sensitive matter).
If needed, please add a note at the top of the message that you
have dropped the address. When the discussion is concluded,
[email protected] will be re-added to the CC list and
its addition will be noted at the top of the message.
You may submit your changes in one of two ways:
An update to the provided XML file
— OR —
An explicit list of changes in this format
Section # (or indicate Global)
OLD:
old text
NEW:
new text
You do not need to reply with both an updated XML file and an explicit
list of changes, as either form is sufficient.
We will ask a stream manager to review and approve any changes that seem
beyond editorial in nature, e.g., addition of new text, deletion of text,
and technical changes. Information about stream managers can be found in
the FAQ. Editorial changes do not require approval from a stream manager.
Approving for publication
--------------------------
To approve your RFC for publication, please reply to this email stating
that you approve this RFC for publication. Please use ‘REPLY ALL’,
as all the parties CCed on this message need to see your approval.
