Alvaro

Please can you add a line or two of motivation to the draft.

I don't think it needs to be major text, but it will be useful to
record the reason for the update to the registry.

Thanks

Please can you re on the question posed by Alvaro below.

Do you have any objection to adding motivation text to the draft?

Certainly I think it would be useful in IESG review.

Document:  draft-ietf-ospf-ospfv3-iid-registry-update-00
Reviewer: Ben Campbell
Review Date: 2013-01-16
IETF LC End Date: 2013-01-24

Summary: This draft is not ready for publication as a proposed
standard.
There is a significant IANA registration issue described in the review
body.

Major issues:

This draft carves out a significant part of a registry with an
assignment
policy of standards action for private use. It offers very little
motivation for the change. In my opinion, this sort of change should
come
with a clear justification.

Specifically, the draft modifies the OSPFv3 Address Family Instance ID
registry to carve out half of the unassigned space for private use.
The
justification for this is a single sentence saying that some networks
need to use IIDs to identify specific applications. I think that needs
significant elaboration in order to motivate the change in a way that
the
reader can evaluate.

My understanding from the OFPS list is that this is in support of
draft-ietf-ospf-ipv4-embedded-ipv6-routing, which is an informational
draft. I have to wonder why the draft under review was not simply the
IANA considerations for that draft.

I suggest one of two paths forward:

1) If this change is in support of that draft in particular, then this
draft should say that, and include a _normative_ reference. I recognize
the normative downref would complicate things--but I think that
complication is reasonable under the circumstances.

2) If this change is to support a general need that goes beyond
draft-ietf-ospf-ipv4-embedded-ipv6-routing, then this draft should
describe that need in enough detail for people to think about it,
perhaps
with an informative reference to
draft-ietf-ospf-ipv4-embedded-ipv6-routing as an _example_.

In short (from the shepherd write-up): The new range is for
applications
that do not justify a standards track OSPFv3 Instance ID allocation. An
example would be Routing for IPv4-embedded IPv6 Packets.

During pre-publication review, the WG chairs asked us to not include
explicit references to draft-ietf-ospf-ipv4-embedded-ipv6-routing as
that
is just an example and not the only potential user/driver.  I don't
have a
problem adding an example, but I want to get agreement/comments/guidance
from the chairs before adding the text.  Acee/Abhay??



Minor issues:

-- section 3:

I don't think it's appropriate to use normative language for IANA
requests. Especially not MUST. (I think the strongest thing we can do
here is a polite request :-)  )   I suggest recasting that to
descriptive
language, and removing section 2 and the RFC 2119 reference.

Yes, we already removed that in the -01 version.

Thanks!!

Alvaro.
