Hi,

Thanks for making this update. Here is a review of this version.

Cheers,
Ian


Overall

The grammar/spelling and readability of the document throughout need to be 
checked and cleaned up.

The terms MAP and S46 are used interchangeably throughout the document. It 
would be clearer if the term ‘S46’ was used for the general case of referring 
to all mechanisms and MAP (or MAP-E/MAP-T as appropriate) is used specifically 
when referring to the MAP mechanisms.


Section 3

Figure 1 would be clearer if the different messages in fig 1 were numbered and 
the supporting text was structured as a numbered list relating to each of the 
messages.

Figure 1 and Figure 2 are essentially the same with the exception of the DHCP 
solicit/request messages being removed from Fig 2. The intended purpose (from 
the context) of fig. 2 is to illustrate how the process works without RADIUS 
authentication. Fig. 2 doesn’t show this. Either fig 2 should show what the 
differences are to Fig 1, or Fig 2 can be removed and Fig 1 can be referenced.

The idea of pre-configured, or caching of RADIUS learnt MAP (S46) 
configuration: In this situation, how is it possible to propagate updates to 
client provision made in the RADIUS server to the clients? As softwire 
mechanism rely on consistency between the BR configuration and client 
provisioning infrastructure, this makes it more likely that differences will 
occur which will relate to service outages. I’m also not clear on what the 
benefit of this caching is.

Section 4 

RFC7598 provides a table in Section 6 showing the valid combinations of options 
to be supplied for each softwire mechanism. A similar table for the 
corresponding RADIUS attributes would be useful.

Section 4.3.2
There MUST be at least one S46-BR Sub option…..
This is only true for MAP-E and lw4o6 provisioning. MAP-T requires the S46-DMR 
option.

4.3.4
The fields in the diagram and the descriptions below don’t match.

4.5
The table needs to be updated in line with the new attributes defined in this 
version.

6
Needs to be updated  in line with the new attributes defined in this version.

7. (personal opinion) - I’m not sure that I would define the operator’s ‘closed 
network’ is inherently safer than other network environments.
