Hi Carlos,
OK with me as long as everyone that is familiar with the field
understand why this change does not introduce new security risks.
Thanks

Hi Avshalom,
I think that the phrase you added (copied from the email body) is
well understood form the first new sentence for someone implementing
this. I mean, the text:
“Since this document defines a very incremental addition of a sub-TL
V, ”
Is implied (and sounds repetitive) from:
“This document defines a new sub-TLV for the BGP Tunnel Encapsulatio
n Attribute.”
So instead of us qualifying the addition with “very incremental”,
it is less ambiguous to quantify it with “a new sub-TLV for the BGP
Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute”. IOH, the first sentence re-summariz
es the extent of the change for the context of the Security paragraph.
Does this make sense?
Thanks,
-- Carlos.

Maybe like this?
4. Security Considerations
+ This document defines a new sub-TLV for the BGP Tunnel
Encapsulation
+ Attribute. Security considerations for the BGP Encapsulation SAFI
+ and the BGP Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute are covered in
[RFC5512].
+ Since this document defines a very incremental addition of a

this design.
Thanks

Avshalom,
Thank you for your review. As you identified, it would be useful to
cite
the applicable security considerations that are documented and
inherited. I think that the following change would address your
concerns. This document defines a very incremental addition of a
sub-TLV, it would seem that further elaboration would be redundant:
4. Security Considerations
+ This document defines a new sub-TLV for the BGP Tunnel
Encapsulation
+ Attribute. Security considerations for the BGP Encapsulation SAFI
+ and the BGP Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute are covered in
[RFC5512].
There are no additional security risks introduced by this design.
Please let us know if this addresses your concerns.
Thanks,
-- Carlos.
