Hi Alia,

Your review is much appreciated.

We’ve made the draft-ietf-trill-resilient-trees-08 to be a informative 
reference. The suggested improvement is sensible. The draft has been updated 
accordingly.

The 07 version has been uploaded.

Thanks!
Mingui

Subject: AD review of draft-ietf-trill-p2mp-bfd-06

As is customary, I have done my AD review of draft-ietf-trill-p2mp-bfd-06. I 
would first like to thank the authors - Mingui, Santosh, and Vengada - as well 
as the WG for their work on this document.

My primary concern is that this document currently has a normative dependency 
on draft-ietf-trill-resilient-trees-08.  I do not understand why.  I can 
certainly see it being useful as an informative reference for how p2mp BFD 
might be useful in a TRILL network - but I don't see a need to understand or 
implement that draft to support this technology.  Text in this draft (e.g. "If 
the head is keeping track of some or all of the tails 
[I-D.ietf-trill-resilient-trees], it has a session of type MultipointClient per 
tail that it cares about [I-D.ietf-bfd-multipoint-active-tail].") could use 
improvement - such as "An example use is when a multicast tree root needs to 
keep track of all the receivers as in [I-D.ietf-trill-resilient-trees]; this 
can be done by maintaining a session of type MultipointClient per receiver that 
is of interest, as described in [I-D.ietf-bfd-multipoint-active-tail]."

I am going to request IETF Last Call for this draft - with it being extra long 
due to the holidays - and expect an update from the authors.

Regards,
Alia
