Thank you, Jorge, for taking the time to reply. I can only regret the use of “DP” rather than “DNP”, but you have a point if there are existing implementations.

Please note that I was close to ballot a DISCUSS based on my non-blocking COMMENT points, but as I am not an expert in EPVN, I am trusting the responsible AD. Please find below osome non-blocking COMMENT points (but replies would be appreciated even if only for my own education), and several nits (please run your I-D through a spell-checker). [Jorge] all the nits are fixed now, thanks Special thanks to Stéphane Litkowski for the shepherd's detailed write-up including the WG consensus and the justification of the intended status even if using the old template. I hope that this review helps to improve the document, [Jorge] it does, thank you very much. Regards, -éric # COMMENTS ## Abstract Please fix the expansion of BUM as it is not `Broadcast, Unknown unicast and Broadcast traffic (BUM)` ;-) [Jorge] fixed, thanks ## Section 1.1 Please fix the expansion of BUM as it is not `Broadcast, Multicast and Unknown unicast traffic (BUM)` ;-) I was amused to read two different wrong expansions for BUM ;-) [Jorge] yeah, we should have caught it way earlier ☹ - It’s fixed now, thanks I am sure that non SP will also use this technique, i.e., I wonder whether s/Service Providers/Network Operators/ would be beneficial. [Jorge] good point, changed now. ## Section 2 Rather than using "DP" in `DP - refers to the "Don't Preempt me"` should "DNP" be more logical ? [Jorge] maybe, but at this point with so many implementations (and debug commands showing DP), I prefer to keep it as DP. Hopefully it is ok. ## Section 3 Should RFC 8584 be formally updated as its reserved field is carved out ? `The DP capability is supported by DF Algorithms Highest-Preference or Lowest-Preference, and MAY be used with the default DF Algorithm or HRW [RFC8584]` Is there any migration concern with the use of MAY ? I.e., part of the participating routers will use the DP and the other part not => leading to an inconsistent election result. [Jorge] the reason why we added this was to leave the door open to use the DP capability with other DF Algorithms, but you are right that the above text is confusing, especially because the intent was not to specify how to use it for the default and HRW algorithms, but to say that the use of DP for any other algorithm is out of scope. So we changed the text to: The DP capability is supported by the Highest-Preference or Lowest-Preference DF Algorithms. The procedures of the "Don't Preempt" capability for other DF Algorithms are out of the scope of this document. # NITS s/tie-breakers/tiebreakers/ s/The existence of both provide/The existence of both provides/ s/achive/achieve/ ? s/decribed/described/ 'e.g.' is usually surrounded by ',' [Jorge] all fixed now
