Hi,

Sorry, another comment resulting from the review of draft-ietf-l1vpn-ospf-auto-discovery and draft-ietf-l1vpn-basic-mode

Figure 2 shows the format of the auto-discovery information. But draft-ietf-l1vpn-basic-mode already defines this format and requires that it is common to all auto-discovery mechanisms.

You should avoid this redefinition since it opens up scope for incompatibilities. Instead you should simple reference draft-ietf-l1vpn-basic-mode.

But note that in my review of draft-ietf-l1vpn-basic-mode I will suggest that that draft should not include the one octet length field as a part of the required encoding. Thus, I suggest:

draft-ietf-l1vpn-basic-mode should show
            +---------------------------------------+
            |     PPI Length (1 octet)              |
            +---------------------------------------+
            |     PPI (variable)                    |
            +---------------------------------------+
            |     CPI AFI (2 octets)                |
            +---------------------------------------+
            |     CPI (length)                      |
            +---------------------------------------+
            |     CPI (variable)                    |
            +---------------------------------------+

draft-ietf-l1vpn-ospf-auto-discovery should be unchanged with its reference to draft-ietf-l1vpn-basic-mode

draft-ietf-l1vpn-bgp-auto-discovery should show
            +---------------------------------------+
            |     Length (1 octet)                  |
            +---------------------------------------+
            |     Auto-discovery info (variable)     |
            +---------------------------------------+
and the descriptive text should simple reference draft-ietf-l1vpn-basic-mode

Cheers,
Adrian
