Document: draft-ietf-mpls-tp-framework-11.txt
Reviewer: Miguel Garcia <[email protected]> Review Date: 
19-April-2010 IETF LC End Date: 21-April-2010

Summary: The document is ready for publication as an Informational RFC.

Major issues: none

Minor issues: none

Nits/editorial comments: The document is well written. There are a few nits 
that you may want to polish:

1) Add missing acronyms to the Terminology Section (Section 1.3). For example, 
I am missing MS-PW, LER, CE, PDU, MAC, PSC, PSN, FCAPS, ACH, MPLS BFD, VCCV, 
ME, MIG, DCN. I also recommend to order these terms in alphabetical order, 
otherwise it is hard to find a term.


MB> All added.

2) Perhaps you can add a short definition of Layer Network and Network Layer in 
Sections 1.3.9 and 1.3.10, respectively (besides the reference to the 
corresponding RFCs). But a definition would be nice to be here.


MB> Added a copy of the Layer Network definition from RFC5654. We also propose 
adding a paraphrase of the definition for Network layer from RFC3031.


3) The first paragraph in Section 1.3.11 is incomplete: "(see "

MB> Ok thanks. This was a broken reference, which I have removed (the two 
refences in the following bullets should suffice).

4) On Section 3.4., the 4th paragraph has a self recursive sentence:

    "A PW provides any emulated service that the IETF has defined to be
    provided by a PW, ..."

    Of bviously, the PW provides a service provided by a PW. Isn't there a loop?

MB> Yes, it is somewhat circular. The objective here is to say that MPLS-TP 
should only use IETF defined PWs. Perhaps we can change this phrase to "MPLS-TP 
uses IETF-defined pseudowires to emulate certain services..."

5) Figures 3 and 4 are so long that they expand beyond a single page. Can you 
split these figures into two pieces each? At least, it looks like it is 
possible.

MB> Agreed

6) In Figure 12, s/pcket/packet

MB> Thanks

7) There is something wrong with the format of the reference sections: 
it seems that there are two columns, the left one being too wide and the right 
one being too narrow.

MB> Unfortunately this is a consequence of the way xml2rfc formats references, 
where the cross-reference is a complete ID name (in the first column). We'll 
work with the RFC editor to make sure this is better-formatted in the RFC.
