Hi Zongpeng,

Thank you very much for picking this work up. The new version has a significant 
improvement on addressing existing comments.
One more question that many people may be interested. Whether this I-D has been 
implemented or has plan to be implemented and deployed?

Best,
Tianran

> 3. Make it clear that "IEEE 802.11 WTP Alternate Tunnel Failure Indication"

> 4. Make it clear that we define seven sub-elements (each with its
> corresponding type number). Three of them are specific for CAPWAP, one is

> element" and "IEEE 802.11 WTP Alternate Tunnel Failure Indication message

> 5. Change the structure of the draft. Firstly, introduce the three new

> 6. Give more explanations to the GRE tunnel type.

> Abstract:
>    Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP) defines a
>    specification to encapsulate a station's data frames between the
>    Wireless Transmission Point (WTP) and Access Controller (AC).
>    Specifically, the station's IEEE 802.11 data frames can be either
>    locally bridged or tunneled to the AC.  When tunneled, a CAPWAP data
>    channel is used for tunneling.  In many deployments encapsulating
>    data frames to an entity other than the AC (for example to an Access
>    Router (AR)) is desirable.  Furthermore, it may also be desirable to
>    use different tunnel encapsulation modes between the WTP and the
>    Access Router.  This document defines extension to CAPWAP protocol
>    for supporting this capability and refers to it as alternate tunnel
>    encapsulation.  The alternate tunnel encapsulation allows 1) the WTP
>    to tunnel non-management data frames to an endpoint different from
>    the AC and 2) the WTP to tunnel using one of many known encapsulation
>    types such as IP-IP, IP-GRE, CAPWAP.  The WTP may advertise support
>    for alternate tunnel encapsulation during the discovery and join
>    process and AC may select one of the supported alternate tunnel
>    encapsulation types while configuring the WTP.
