I agree that the figure is a little confusing. I suggest the following:

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|Type=Smart-MAC |  (1 byte)

Re: [trill] Alissa Cooper's Discuss on draft-ietf-trill-smart-endnodes-10: (withDISCUSS and COMMENT)

2018-03-07 Thread Alissa Cooper
Hi Fangwei,

As I noted in response to the Gen-ART reviewer, I managed to ballot before 
reading the rest of this thread (sorry!), but I still think the diagram in 4.3 
is confusing and not consistent with the text. To my eye row 3 shows two bytes’ 
worth of fields but the label says “4 bytes.” RSV is depicted as 2 bits but the 
text says it is 6 bits. The combination of these two inconsistencies makes it 
hard to know what the actual lengths are supposed to be.

Hi,Alissa Cooper


Thanks for your review and comments. 


The new version(version 10)  has updated to fix your comments.


The format of Smart-MAC APP sub-TLV and the text  has been changed to the 
following:



The length of F,M,RSV,VLAN/FGL data Label is 4 bytes. and the length of 
VLAN/FGL Data Label field is 24 bits.





 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
 |Type=Smart-MAC | (1 byte)
 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
 | Length | (1 byte)
 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
 |F|M|RSV| VLAN/FGL Data Label | (4 bytes)
 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-...+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
 | MAC (1) (6 bytes) |
 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-...+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
 | . |
 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-...+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
 | MAC (N) (6 bytes) |
 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-...+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 3 
Smart-MAC APPsub-TLV


 o VLAN/FGL Data Label: 24bits. If F is 1, this field is a 24-bit
 FGL Data Label for all subsequent MAC addresses in this APPsub-
 TLV. Otherwise, if F is 0, the lower 12 bits is the VLAN of all
 subsequent MAC addresses in this APPsub-TLV, and the upper 12 bits
 is not used(sent as zero and ignored on receipt). If there is no
 VLAN/FGL data label specified, the VLAN/FGL Data Label is zero.








Regards.


Fangwei.

DISCUSS:

This should hopefully be easy to fix and was pointed out by the Gen-ART
reviewer:

All of section 4.3 is confusing as to what the length of the TLV really is.
Row 3 in the diagram says 2 bytes or 4 bytes, but the number of bits called out
in bullets 4 and 5 below it don't seem to add up to those things. Maybe it would
be better to draw a diagram with F=0 and a separate diagram with F=1.

Please make it clear both in the diagram and in the text what the expected
lengths of the fields are -- I find it particularly confusing that the number
of bits pictured doesn't align with the number of bits specified in the text
per field.
