Avshalom,
Thank you for your review. As you identified, it would be useful to cite
the applicable security considerations that are documented and
inherited. I think that the following change would address your
concerns. This document defines a very incremental addition of a
sub-TLV, it would seem that further elaboration would be redundant:
4. Security Considerations
+ This document defines a new sub-TLV for the BGP Tunnel Encapsulation
+ Attribute. Security considerations for the BGP Encapsulation SAFI
+ and the BGP Tunnel Encapsulation Attribute are covered in [RFC5512].
There are no additional security risks introduced by this design.
Please let us know if this addresses your concerns.
Thanks,
-- Carlos.
