I think it would be useful to place that reference also in the Abstract, and in the problem statement, before you start talking about the LSP. You don't have to add an LSP description, simply a reference so that it is easy for me to know where to get more information - without having to look for the reference elsewhere in the document :) Regards, Christer From: Christer Holmberg [mailto:christer.holmb...@ericsson.com] Sent: Saturday, August 06, 2016 10:03 AM To: gen-art@ietf.org<mailto:gen-art@ietf.org>; draft-ietf-isis-remaining-lifetime....@tools.ietf.org<mailto:draft-ietf-isis-remaining-lifetime....@tools.ietf.org> Subject: RE: Gen-ART review of draft-ietf-isis-remaining-lifetime-02 I am the assigned Gen-ART reviewer for this draft. For background on Gen-ART, please see the FAQ at <http://wiki.tools.ietf.org/area/gen/trac/wiki/GenArtfaq> Document: draft-ietf-isis-remaining-lifetime-02 Reviewer: Christer Holmberg Review Date: 6 August 2016 IETF LC End Date: 15 August 2016 IETF Telechat Date: N/A Summary: The document is well written, and almost ready for publication as a standards track RFC, but I have a couple of editorial comments that I'd like the authors to address. Major Issues: None Minor Issues: None Editorial Issues: The Abstract says: "Corruption of the Remainining Lifetime Field in a Link State PDU can go undetected. In certain scenarios this may cause or exacerbate flooding storms. It is also a possible denial of service attack vector. This document defines a backwards compatible solution to this problem." ...and the first sentence of the Problem Statement says: "Each Link State PDU (LSP) includes a Remaining Lifetime field." I have no idea what a Link State PDU is, and there is no introduction to what the draft is all about. The text jumps direction into the work. So, please add a reference to Link State PDU (LSP), and please give a little bit of introduction text what context/environment this is all about. I assume there is some core document which describes the context/environment where the Link State PDU is used?
