draft-addogra-rtgwg-vrrp-rfc5798bis-11

I support adoption.

I think the Abstract should be trimmed down a bit. It is very long.

I don’t think it is that long considering the scope of the document. I did 
change “transport protocol” to
“IP protocol version” since “transport protocol” is usually used to refer to 
“Layer-4” protocols. The second
paragraph is needed to set the context for the BIS document.


I agree with Dhruv that the IANA Considerations could use a little tweaking. 
While I do not think it essential that the registries be named, it might be 
useful to some future reader. It should be consistent and list the IPv4 VRRP 
MAC addresses. I'm also not sure why the MAC addresses are listed as "reserved" 
while everything else is "assigned". MAC addresses under the IANA OUI are fully 
under the authority of IANA and assigned for particular uses like other 
codepoints. Here is a suggested replacement IANA Considerations section:

IANA Considerations

   In the "IPv4 Multicast Address Space Registry", IANA has assigned
   the IPv4 multicast address 224.0.0.18 for VRRP.

   In the "IPv6 Multicast Address Space Registry", IANA has assigned
   the IPv6 link-local scope multicast address FF02:0:0:0:0:0:0:12 for
   VRRP for IPv6.

   In the "IANA Unicast 48-bit MAC Addresses" registry, IANA has
   assigned blocks of Ethernet unicast addresses as follows (in hex):
      IPv4 VRRP   00-00-5E-00-01-00 to 00-00-5E-00-01-FF
      IPv6 VRRP   00-00-5E-00-02-00 to 00-00-5E-00-02-FF

I’ve taken your suggestion and added the appropriate references.

   In the "Local Network Control Block (224.0.0.0 - 224.0.0.255
   (224.0.0/24))" of the "IPv4 Multicast Address Space Registry"
   [RFC5771], IANA has assigned the IPv4 multicast address 224.0.0.18
   for VRRP.

   In the "Link-Local Scope Multicast Addresses" block of the "IPv6
   Multicast Address Space Registry" [RFC3307], IANA has assigned the
   IPv6 link-local scope multicast address FF02:0:0:0:0:0:0:12 for VRRP
   for IPv6.

   In the "IANA Unicast 48-bit MAC Addresses" registry [RFC7042], IANA
   has assigned blocks of Ethernet unicast addresses as follows (in
   hexadecimal):

       IPv4 VRRP   00-00-5E-00-01-00 to 00-00-5E-00-01-FF
       IPv6 VRRP   00-00-5E-00-02-00 to 00-00-5E-00-02-FF

Thanks,

Hi,

I support adoption.

Now that we are doing bis, could we improve the IANA section a bit -- it would 
help to identify the registry and explicit instructions to update the 
references, for instance.   Also for ethernet, isn't IPv4 allocation missing -> 
"00-01-00 to 00-01-FF"?

Section "11.2.6. 0 - Reserved" and the VRP packet with the field being called 
"0" but the description as "This reserved field MUST be set to zero..." reads 
wrong. I suggest either using "reserved" in the figure and section title or 
just using MBZ - must be zero and not call it reserved.

Thanks!
Dhruv
