Hi Anoop,

Thanks for the new draft version.
I removed some of the points

        A number of routers support sampling techniques such as sFlow [sFlow-
        v5, sFlow-LAG], PSAMP [RFC 5475] and NetFlow Sampling [RFC 3954].
        For the purpose of large flow identification, sampling must be
        enabled on all of the egress ports in the router where such
        measurements are desired.

    I don't understand the second sentence.
    One way to read this is:  sampling must be _enabled _on all of the
    egress ports where such measurements are desired.
        Ok, this is an obvious statement. If the measurements are
    desired, enable them


Yes,

    Or maybe you want to say: _sampling _must be enabled on all of the
    egress ports where such measurements are desired.
        This is a false statement: if you have the choice between
    sampling and non sampling, use non sampling measurements.
    Or maybe you want to say: sampling must be enabled on _all _of the
    egress ports where such measurements are desired.
        This is a false statement: if I have ECMP on 2 links, and only
    one of them can't do non sampling, then we should not force
        sampling on both links.
    You see, I'm confused.

    You miss a couple of key messages:
    - if unsampled measurements are available, use those.
    - egress means where LAG/ECMP are enabled (this is important for
    the paragraph starting with "If egress sampling is not available,
    ingress sampling can suffice since the central management entity use")


We were not intending to discuss a mix sampling and non-sampling interfaces in the same router, but this is a reasonable point and it will be clarified (i.e. we will state that it's possible to mix sampled and non sampled interfaces as long as the function of large flow detection/identification can be performed).
You're still missing the point that unsampled measurements is better than sampled ones.

Is this what you mean by:

   It is possible that a router may have line cards that support a
   sampling technique while other line cards support automatic hardware
   detection of large flows.

It's not very clear.







    -  The indentation in section 2 is not correct


Will fix.


    - "For tunneling protocols like GRE, VXLAN, NVGRE, STT, etc.,"
    You need to expand and provide references.

Will provide references.
Still to be provided
What do mean by expand -- just expand the acronyms (already in the acronym section) or something else?
Acceptable acronyms are https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc-style-guide/abbrev.expansion.txt

    - a PBR rule
    Expand.

OK
to be done.

Regards, Benoit
