Summary: Almost ready for PS. I noticed at a late stage in the last
call reviewing process that the requirement that the hop before a
loopback node should be a strict hop was unnecessary. The draft editor,
Dong Jie, has agreed that this is the case and is checking that the
removal of this constraint is acceptable to the other authors. There is
one other outstanding fix agreed for a nit. Otherwise all my last call
comments have been cleared. Thanks.
Major issues:
None
Minor issues:
s3.2, para 2, et seq:
The requirement that the hop before the loopback entity MUST be a strict
hop is unnecessary. The essential constraint (which is fully specified
in the -04 draft) is that the entity at which loopback is to occur has
to be uniquely identified (i.e., it can't be an 'abstract node'
signifying (potentially) a group of nodes, such as an AS). I have
discussed this with Dong Jie, as editor, and he has agreed that the
constraint is not needed. A new version of the draft removing the
constraint is in hand, pending agreement with the other authors and
checking with the WG.
Nits/editorial comments:
s3.2, para 3:
OLD :
Currently, the type value MUST be verified to be
less than 32, and for type values 1 and 2, the prefix length MUST be
32 and 128 respectively.
NEW:
Currently, the type value MUST be verified to be
less than 32 (i.e., able to identify a specific entity where a
loopback can
occur, see Section 4.3), and for type values 1 (IPv4 address) and 2
(IPv6
address), the prefix length MUST be 32 and 128 respectively.
