Thank you, Jorge, for your email. I still have doubts about the scalability effect of MAC addresses either changing or moving. The MAC address landscape has changed since RFC 7623 ;-) But, this is a non-blocking comment.

This is a very specific area of work and the text is not easy to read for a non expert. So, I was happy to rely on the Internet directorate review below by Pascal. Please find below some non-blocking COMMENT points (but replies would be appreciated even if only for my own education). Special thanks to Matthew Bocci for the shepherd’s detailed write-up including the WG consensus and the justification of the Intended status. Other thanks to Pascal Thubert, the Internet directorate reviewer (at my request), please consider this int-dir review as if it was mine: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bess-pbb-evpn-isid-cmacflush/reviewrequest/17846/ [Jorge] yup, comments are addressed in version 9. Thanks Pascal! I hope that this review helps to improve the document, [Jorge] absolutely, thanks. Regards, -éric # COMMENTS ## Abstract No need for action, but I have rarely seen such an acronym-dense abstract, it is therefore hard to read. [Jorge] hopefully it is now slightly easier to read. ## G.8032 G.8032 should be an informative reference (this would be DISCUSS level issue if the reference was normative). [Jorge] added as informative reference ## Scalability Should there be some text about the scalability issues ? I.e., MAC addresses move (Wi-Fi roaming) and are changing (cfr MADINAS WG). [Jorge] the document does not have any changes with respect of the handling of customer MACs, other than what is described in RFC7623, hence the security considerations refer to the ones in RFC7623. As for the service provider B-MACs, the security considerations section describes the consumption of additional memory in the PEs due to the new mechanisms. Hopefully that is enough.
