Hi Eric, Andrew

Thanks a lot for the updates done.
Here are more comments.
Overall comments:

-          Please add a section that contains all the abbreviations expansions: 
that may help non expert people to follow the acronyms without looking for the 
first reference in the text.
[Eric] This is not generally required of an RFC.

ad> just to add, a reader should have read other RFCs first before reading this 
which I believe define abbreviations we use. If you can point to any specific 
abbreviation never explained we can spell out words before abbreviating for the 
first tie in the text.

[SLI2] I agree that people should have read other RFCs...but we are all here to 
create documents that are easy to read/understand and some reminders are always 
helpful. Expanding abbreviations at first use is a good thing and thanks for 
having done that, but it is usually helpful in addition to have a dedicated a 
section with the abbreviation expansion consolidated. I do not thing that it is 
a huge work.





-          I usually like figures. For the intro, it may be wonderful to build 
a figure that reminds the existing S-PMSI/Leaf A-D procedure. So without 
reading the text, we can remember how it works.

-          The interAS case may also be better with a Figure and an example (or 
couples of).

[Eric] This seems like a matter of taste.  Admitedly, I'd probably like figures 
more if I had any skill in producing them ;-)

[SLI2] I agree that ASCII art is a pain but unfortunately RFCs do not allow 
JPEG or PNG yet :)
Let me help on that. Please find attach some pictures that you may be able to 
use and tune.




"The procedures of [RFC6625] do not clearly state how to handle an

      S-PMSI A-D route if its NLRI contains wild cards, but its PTA

      specifies "no tunnel info"."



[SLI] I quickly ran over RFC6625, it does not mention anything on explicit 
tracking or Leaf A-D routes.So we assume that RFC6513/6514 only applies here.

[Eric] RFC 6625 specifies the handling of wildcard S-PMSI A-D routes, but did 
not consider the case where the S-PMSI A-D routes do not carry a PTA.  This 
document corrects that.

[SLI2] My point was that RFC6625 does not specify anything regarding explicit 
tracking while your sentence says  "do not clearly state". In reality, it does 
not state anything about how explicit tracking works for wildcard routes.




"If the LIR-pF flag is set in a given PTA, the LIR flag of that PTA

   SHOULD also be set."

[SLI] Why not using a MUST ?

[Eric] If all the PEs support the LIR-pF flag, the procedures will work as 
intended even if the LIR flag is not set.  So I don't think a MUST is 
appropriate.

[SLI2] Ok so do we really care of having the LIR flag set ? If not, couldn't be 
a MAY ? I'm just wondering how important is to set the LIR-flag here. It seems 
to be linked to the next sentence between parenthesis.
I understand that setting both allows to always have a response (per flow or 
not per flow). Can we see this as an optional feature ?


Section3:

[SLI2] s/"There are other RFCS that update"/"There are other RFCs that update"






"We also introduce a new notion: the "match for tracking".  This

   differs from the "match for reception" as follows:"

[SLI] It would be better to give a definition of the "match for tracking" 
before giving the rules. Here you're explaining only the rules, not the 
difference in the meaning. Wouldn't it be easier to tell that the 
implementation MUST consider only the S-PMSI A-D routes that have a LIR flag 
and/or LR-pF flag set and then run the same rules as the RFC6625. Why do you 
want to have S-PMSI routes with PTA and LIR unset in your route list for "match 
for tracking" ? You need to take care here on your text proposal as one of your 
previous statement updates the RFC6625 and the match reception procedure, so 
the rules to be applied are the original one from RFC6625 and not the updated 
one.

[Eric] IMO, the clearest way to express this is to give the rules and then 
illustrate with a couple of examples.
[SLI2] You are right, I'm just challenging the fact that the text says that it 
will explain how the match for tracking differs from the match from reception 
but it does not. It's the job of the reader to deduce the difference from the 
rule you are giving.
Two options:

-          Change the sentence 'This differs from...' by something like: "The 
match for tracking route SHOULD be found as follows:"

-          Add a sentence at the end like: "Compared to the match for reception 
procedure, the match for tracking procedure takes into account S-PMSI A-D 
routes whose PTA specifies "no tunnel information" with either LIR or LIR-pf 
set"




"   Also note that if a match for tracking does not have the LIR flag or

   the LIR-pF flag set, no explicit tracking information will be

   generated.  See Section 5."

[SLI] Again I do not see the value added of keeping such route as a match for 
tracking as there is no tracking requested.

[Eric] As the terms are defined, there is always a "match for tracking" route 
for each flow.    If tracking is not requested, this route will have LIR and 
LIR-pF clear.  There are no unnecessary routes.


[SLI2] Agree, but based on my understanding such a route (with LIR and LIR-pF 
clear) cannot be a match for tracking by definition : "ignore any S-PMSI A-D 
route whose PTA specifies
      "no tunnel information", but does not have either LIR or LIR-pF
      Set"

So the statement  "if a match for tracking does not have the LIR flag or the 
LIR-pF flag set" is IMO wrong.





"If the match for tracking has LIR set and if either (a) the
       egress node does not support LIR-pF, or (b) LIR-pF is not set,
       then the egress node must respond to the match for tracking,
       following procedures specified in other documents for the case
       where LIR is set."

[SLI] Please state the relevant document references here.

[Eric] In the case described above, the handling of the LIR flag is not 
modified by this document.  I don't think it is necessary to cite a specific 
set of documents that discuss the LIR flag.

ad> maybe we can say "the procedures specified in this document do not apply 
are not applicable on the egress node" instead of "then the egress node..."

                [SLI2] That's a good proposal



Moreover if new RD types are created, new siblings will have to be created.

[Eric] Your point is correct, but there hasn't been a new RD type in 20 years.  
The draft shouldn't really say "add 16", it should just point out the new types.
[SLI2] I agree, but this may happen or not. I do not know if it is possible or 
not but can we have an IANA point telling that any new RD type allocation 
should in reality allocate two RD type values. My goal is to have an automated 
way of allocating the sibling RD type for this use case and prevent a miss of 
allocation if a new RD type is defined.
I'm also wondering if we really need to differentiate the reply to a LIR-pF and 
to a LIR. The key point is for the ingress to know about the receivers for a 
particular (S,G). If the reply comes from a LIR or LIR-pF, IMO, it does not 
really matter. Is it ?



"However, if the PTA of the installed S-PMSI A-D route specifies "no
   tunnel info", the egress ABR/ASBR MUST pass the PTA along unchanged
   when it forwards the S-PMSI A-D route.  (That is, a PTA specifying
   "no tunnel info" MUST NOT be changed into a PTA specifying a tunnel.)
   Furthermore, if the PTA specifies "no tunnel info", the LIR and LIR-
   pF flags in the PTA MUST be passed along unchanged."

[SLI]Could you confirm that in case of SPMSI merging to IPMSI, the SPMSI route 
is not forwarded.
I'm not fully familiar with interAS segmented case, but I have another 
(possibly dumb) question. Is a merge case SPMSI regular (S,G) to SPMSI wildcard 
possible ? (in a similar way as SPMSI to IPMSI). If yes, what are the 
procedures here ?




Section 8.
[SLI] Do we have counter-measures against such "attack" ? Ingress PE dropping ?

[Eric] I consider the specification of such counter-measures to be outside the 
scope of the document.
[SLI2] Fine, could you please state this in the security section ?

Introduction:

"By originating one of these BGP routes, an ingress node advertises that
   it is transmitting a particular multicast flow."
[SLI] Is "is transmitting" correct ? Can't we have situations where an S-PMSI 
route is/was advertised but no traffic is flowing (no yet started or switched, 
or stopped).

Fixed.




"Now

   suppose that the ingress node wants explicit tracking for each

   individual flow that it transmits (following the procedures of

   [RFC6625] on that P-tunnel."

[SLI] Missing ")"

Fixed.







"This allows the

   ingress node to determine the set of egress nodes that are receiving

   flows from the ingress node."

[SLI] I think the Leaf A-D tells that there is a receiver interested by the 
flow, but does not tell that it actually receives it.

Correct; fixed.







"   Howver, this procedure requires several clarifications:"

[SLI] There is a typo s/Howver/However/

Fixed.





"The procedures of [RFC6625] do not clearly state how to handle an

      S-PMSI A-D route if its NLRI contains wild cards, but its PTA

      specifies "no tunnel info"."



[SLI] I quickly ran over RFC6625, it does not mention anything on explicit 
tracking or Leaf A-D routes.So we assume that RFC6513/6514 only applies here.

RFC 6625 specifies the handling of wildcard S-PMSI A-D routes, but did not 
consider the case where the S-PMSI A-D routes do not carry a PTA.  This 
document corrects that.







"   *  The explicit tracking procedures do not allow an ingress node

         to "see" past the boundaries of the segmentation domain.



         This particular problem is not further addressed in this

         revision of this document.

"

[SLI] Do you plan to address it ? Or do we now consider it as out of scope ?

I think this is actually addressed in Section 5.3, so I've removed the remark.









Section 2:

"Prior specifications define one flag in the PTA, the "Leaf Info

   Required" (LIR) flag, that is used for explicit tracking."



[SLI] Please point to the right reference

Fixed.





"If the LIR-pF flag is set in a given PTA, the LIR flag of that PTA

   SHOULD also be set."

[SLI] Why not using a MUST ?

If all the PEs support the LIR-pF flag, the procedures will work as intended 
even if the LIR flag is not set.  So I don't think a MUST is appropriate.





"one forces a

   a response to be sent an egress node that does not support LIR-pF"

[SLI] Is there a missing word like 'sent by an egress node" ?

Fixed.









Section 3:

"The definition of "match for reception" in [RFC6625] is hereby

   modified as follows:"



[SLI] Please point to the section that you are updating.

In addition, section 3.2 of RFC6625 contains multiple if then else conditions 
for each cases (C-S,C-G) and (C-*,C-G). Please give some precision in where do 
you want to insert your new statement in this processing sequence. I guess it 
is at the beginning.

I tried to make this clearer.







"When finding the "match for reception" for a given (C-S,C-G) or

      (C-*,C-G), ignore any S-PMSI A-D route that has no PTA, or whose

      PTA specifying "no tunnel information"."
[SLI] I would be in favor to introduce a normative statement here.

Fixed.




"We also introduce a new notion: the "match for tracking".  This

   differs from the "match for reception" as follows:"

[SLI] It would be better to give a definition of the "match for tracking" 
before giving the rules. Here you're explaining only the rules, not the 
difference in the meaning. Wouldn't it be easier to tell that the 
implementation MUST consider only the S-PMSI A-D routes that have a LIR flag 
and/or LR-pF flag set and then run the same rules as the RFC6625. Why do you 
want to have S-PMSI routes with PTA and LIR unset in your route list for "match 
for tracking" ? You need to take care here on your text proposal as one of your 
previous statement updates the RFC6625 and the match reception procedure, so 
the rules to be applied are the original one from RFC6625 and not the updated 
one.

IMO, the clearest way to express this is to give the rules and then illustrate 
with a couple of examples.







"   Also note that if a match for tracking does not have the LIR flag or

   the LIR-pF flag set, no explicit tracking information will be

   generated.  See Section 5."

[SLI] Again I do not see the value added of keeping such route as a match for 
tracking as there is no tracking requested.

As the terms are defined, there is always a "match for tracking" route for each 
flow.    If tracking is not requested, this route will have LIR and LIR-pF 
clear.  There are no unnecessary routes.







Section 4:

"Such a route could be an

       I-PMSI A-D route, a (C-*,C-G1) S-PMSI A-D route, a (C-S1,C-*)

       S-PMSI A-D route, or a (C-*,C-*) S-PMSI A-D route. "

[SLI] Is per flow explicit tracking also required for I-PMSI ? I do not see it 
listed in the goals of the doc ? The goal was to address wildcards S-PMSI AD 
routes.

The above simply says that some route must specify the tunnel on which the 
(C-S1,C-G1) is to be transmitted, and that this route could be an I-PMSI A-D 
route.





"Further, if the ingress node originates a wildcard S-PMSI A-D
       route carrying a PTA specifying the tunnel to be used for
       carrying (C-S1,C-G1) traffic, and if that PTA has the LIR-pF bit
       set, then explicit tracking for (C-S1,C-G1) is requested by that
       S-PMSI A-D route.  Thus the ingress node SHOULD NOT originate a
       (C-S1,C-G1) S-PMSI A-D route whose PTA specifies "no tunnel
       info"; such a route would not provide any additional
       functionality."

[SLI] I do not fully understand this text in the context of your procedure 1. 
which deals with an origination of an (C-S1,C-G1) S-PMSI A-D route (no 
wildcard). As I understand the procedure for the wildcard is defined in 2.

This just says that there's no point in originating S-PMSI(C-S,C-G) with LIR 
set if you've already originated S-PMSI(C-*,C-G) with LIR-pF set.  That seems 
to be an appropriate bit of advice.









"2. The following procedure can be used if (and only if) it is known
       that the egress nodes support the optional LIR-pF flag."



I have some issue with this sentence. It does not seem to be normative as there 
is no normative statement. However I understand it as a critical thing ("and 
only if" !) so it may require at least a SHOULD.

Then the issue I see is that this knowledge does not come from the protocol, so 
it sounds important to me to highlight the impact of a mistake.



BUT, reading the section 5. I understand that it is not as critical as it seems 
as the receiver will ignore simply the LIR-pF flag and apply the standard 
procedure (LIR set).

Please clarify the criticity to have or not this knowledge.

I added some text saying that procedure 2 may yield unexpected results if not 
all the PEs support LIR-pF, and that the procedure SHOULD NOT be used in that 
case.









"       To terminate explicit tracking that has been initiated by an
       S-PMSI A-D route whose PTA specifies a tunnel, the ingress node
       re-originates the route without the LIR flag set"

[SLI] Do we also need to clear the LIR-pf ? It would make sense to do so.

Fixed.





"If the match for tracking has LIR set and if either (a) the
       egress node does not support LIR-pF, or (b) LIR-pF is not set,
       then the egress node must respond to the match for tracking,
       following procedures specified in other documents for the case
       where LIR is set."

[SLI] Please state the relevant document references here.

In the case described above, the handling of the LIR flag is not modified by 
this document.  I don't think it is necessary to cite a specific set of 
documents that discuss the LIR flag.






Section 5.2



"Note that, per RFC4364, every RD begins with a two-octet type field
   that is either 0, 1, or 2.  By adding 16 to the second octet of the
   RD, we force the type field to be 16, 17, or 18. "

[SLI] It works but we may need to ensure that the types > 16 cannot be used 
anymore by new applications.

There is  a registry for the Route Distinguisher Type field.  Only types 16, 
17, and 18 are defined here, other values are still available.


Moreover if new RD types are created, new siblings will have to be created.

Your point is correct, but there hasn't been a new RD type in 20 years.  The 
draft shouldn't really say "add 16", it should just point out the new types.


Wouldn't it be easier to set the MSB of the RD type to 1 ? so we only lock half 
of the type space.

I think it is easier to use three new type values than to turn one of the bits 
into a flag.


Or what could be the impact of using the RD of the local VRF of the egress node 
?

The RD of the Leaf A-D route needs to be derived from the RD of the S-PMSI A-D 
route that elicits it.  Otherwise the ingress node receiving the Leaf A-D route 
will have diffculty matching it to the corresponding S-PMSI A-D route.



Section 5.3


"In the case where the egress
   node is not a PE, but rather an ABR or ASBR, it will not know whether
   it needs to receive a given flow unless it receives a Leaf A-D route
   whose NLRI specifies that flow and whose IP-address-specific RT
   specifies an address of the egress node."

[SLI] The sentence works but when reading it I needed multiple reread to 
understand that the "IP-address-specific RT
   specifies an address of the egress node." was referring to the ASBR/ABR and 
not the receiver PE.
Do you mind using "this egress node" or "this ABR/ASBR" ?

I tried to clarify that.




Section 8.
[SLI] Do we have counter-measures against such "attack" ? Ingress PE dropping ?

I consider the specification of such counter-measures to be outside the scope 
of the document.



Section 9.2
I think RFC7524 needs to be referenced as normative giving that its knowledge 
is required to understand section 5.3.

I'm not sure that RFC7524 should be a normative reference, as this draft does 
not require segmentation at the ABRs.  However, since RFC7524 is already 
published, there's no harm in adding it to the "normative references" section.


I think that section 5.3 is also updating/complementing the procedures in 
RFC7524 with the "no-tunnel info" case.

There don't seem to be any clear and objective criteria for determining whether 
one document "updates" another.
