As such, OAM messages MUST be encoded so that they exhibit identical entropy characteristics to data traffic in order that they share the same fate. It’s not obvious to me what you mean by “identical entropy characteristics to data traffic”. Surely, different flows may have different entropy characteristics, so, *which* data traffic? Similarly, with which data traffic are you saying the OAM messages must share fate? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- COMMENT: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the clear and readable document. I have one nit and one question. 1. Section 1, nit: “EVPN is an Layer 2” s/an/a/ _______________________________________________ BESS mailing list BESS@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/bess
