# Éric Vyncke, INT AD, comments for draft-ietf-bess-mvpn-evpn-sr-p2mp-15
CC @evyncke

Thank you for the work put into this document.

Please find below one blocking DISCUSS points (easy to address), some
non-blocking COMMENT points/nits (replies would be appreciated even if only for
my own education).

Special thanks to Stéphane Litkowski for the shepherd's write-up including the
WG consensus *and* the justification of the intended status.

Please note that Tim Winters is the Internet directorate reviewer (at my
request) and you may want to consider this int-dir review as well when it will
be available (no need to wait for it though):
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bess-mvpn-evpn-sr-p2mp/reviewrequest/22937/

I hope that this review helps to improve the document,

Regards,

## DISCUSS (blocking)

As noted in
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/statement-iesg-handling-ballot-positions-20220121/,
a DISCUSS ballot is a request to have a discussion on the points below; I
really think that the document would be improved with a change here, but can be
convinced otherwise.

### Sections 3 & 5.2

Keeping the field name of "MPLS Label" (singular) is really misleading as it
can contains SRV6 SID. Did the WG/authors consider updating RFC 6514 to change
the field name ?

## COMMENTS (non-blocking)

### Abstract

s/This document describes/This document specifies/

### Section 1

s/allow a Service Provider/allow a network operator/

s/This document describes/This document specifies/

While the statements `The reader is expected...` are valid in a RFC, they do
not help the IESG review by a non expert.

### Section 3.1.2

To be honest, I failed to follow the procedure... A decriptive figure would
help a lot. The same comment for the whole section 4.

### Section 7

Please properly define `IMET`.

No need to define twice the "BUM".

What is a `NVE`?

### Section 8

Having a list of implementations is nice, but if the document refers to RFC
7942, then it should follow section 2 of this RFC rather than having a very
succint description.

### Section 9

Please add also a URI for "SRv6 Endpoint Behaviors" registry.
