Hi Joe,

The very short introduction to SAFE/UNSAFE is there to help reader digest the 
difference between EXP and UEXP introduced right after and understand the 
rationale for having two IPFIX IEs.

Of course, the authoritative reference for implementers is the TSVWG base spec; 
the exact section citations are provided.

I still prefer maintaining that text for now.

Thank you.

Cheers,
Med

I’d actually like to suggest this doc avoid repeating information in other 
docs, notably the UDP options spec.

In particular:
- there is no need to replicate Fig 1
- there is no need to replicate the definitions of SAFE or UNSAFE

All these things can be “as defined in X”. That avoids any issues if there are 
subtle changes to these, notably the definitions.

Joe

Objet : Intdir early review of draft-ietf-opsawg-tsvwg-udp-ipfix-
03

Reviewer: Joseph Touch
Review result: Ready with Issues

This review is performed as part of the INTAREA cross-area
review.

There do not appear to be any INTAREA issues in this document.

NOTE: as author of the UDP options on which this document is
based, I have some other concerns noted below, which are the
"issues" indicated in the review result (ready with issues).

There are some misconceptions about UDP options that should be
corrected in this document:

Regarding SAFE options:
-       “Such options can be silently ignored by receivers
without affecting
the meaning of the UDP user data” -       Should be “Such options
can be
silently ignored by legacy receivers because they do not alter
the UDP user data”

Regarding UNSAFE options:
-       “Such options are not safe to ignore”
-       Should be “Such options are not safe tor legacy receivers
to ignore
because they alter the UDP user data”

[Med] Fixed.

It would be useful to use a consistent phrase to describe the "UDP user data" 
(e.g., as per your Fig 1), i.e., rather than also “UDP data payload”.
[Med] Updated the text to use consistent wording for both safe/unsafe text.



The document should be more clear that UDP options occur per-
packet within a flow and can be introduced at any time in the
flow (unlike TCP).

[Med] Added a new statement to echo this. The export process covers any option 
that is observed in a flow.




Sec 4.1 needs to indicate use of a field with 256 possible
values; it currently is defined for only 32 or 64 values.



[Med] 32/64 are provided as examples to illustrate the use of reduced encoding. 
The full 256 range is covered in the spec. Thanks.

“Unsigned” without numeric qualifiers is not an IPFIX data type, per RFC7011 
Sec 6.1.1.

Sec 6.2 indicates the specific encoding types where reduced encoding applies, 
and also uses unsigned only with numeric qualifiers.

[Med] You are right. Updated the text to use a new abstract data type defined 
in another ongoing opsawg-ipfix spec.

Joe
