Hi Warren,

Thank you so much for the review.   We agree with those changes. We have made 
the requested changes, but we cannot submit them until after Mar-8th.  Until 
then, I have attached a text diff output.  You can also see the changes at 
https://github.com/TimEvens/draft-ietf-grow-bmp-loc-rib.  You can compare tag 
revisions.

Awesome, thank you very much. Please let me know LOUDLY once you've submitted, 
and I'll kick off IETF LC. It will probably have to wait until just after IETF 
ends, so that people can pay attention...

Thank again for the quick turn around,
W



Thanks,
Tim

Hi authors and WG,

Thank you for this document, I believe that allowing BMP to share Loc-RIB is 
clearly a good thing.

I do have a few comments/nits that addressing now should help the IETF
LC and IESG eval go more smoothly.

Please SHOUT loudly once you've had a chance to address these.

AD Review of draft-ietf-grow-bmp-local-rib
--------------------------------------------

1: "As shown in Figure 2, Locally originated section 9.4 of [RFC4271]"
I'm unable to parse this - changing "As shown in Figure 2, Locally originated" 
into "As shown in Figure 2, Locally Originated into Loc-RIB, ..." doesn't fix 
it, because the figure doesn't really "show what Sec 9.4 of RFC4271" says.
Perhaps something like: "Figure 2 (Locally Originated into Loc-RIB) illustrates 
how redistributed or otherwise originated routes get installed into the Loc-RIB 
based on the decision process selection in [RFC4271]"


2: In Section 1.1 the document says things like: "The current method introduces 
the need..."
Once the document is published, the phrase "the current method" seems 
incorrect, but I don't have a better suggestion...

3: "Locally sourced routes MUST be conveyed using the Loc-RIB instance peer 
type."
Should this be "locally sourced BGP routes"? It would be silly to think that 
this might carry e.g OSPF only routes, but you have a MUST, so important to be 
explicit.
This also seems to conflict with "The F flag indicates that the Loc-RIB is 
filtered". Perhaps that above is better worded something like:
"If locally sourced routes are communicated using BMP, they MUST be conveyed 
using the Loc-RIB instance peer type." ?

4: " The Loc-RIB contains all routes selected by the BGP protocol Decision 
Process section 9.1 of [RFC4271]."
Similar to #1 - perhaps this is just missing a "in section of..."? Still needs 
rewording.

5: "These routes include those learned from BGP peers via its Adj-RIBs-In 
post-policy, as well as routes learned by other means section 9.4 of [RFC4271]."
Similar -- I suspect that there was an errant search and replace which 
clobbered some text?

6: "Peer AS: Set to the BGP instance global or default ASN value."
Erm, what's this default ASN value?

7: "5.1.  Per-Peer Header"
I think that this section needs a pointer to RFC7854 Sec 4.2.

8: "Capabilities MUST include 4-octet ASN"
s/include 4/include the 4/

9: "For example, prefix 10.0.0.0/8<http://10.0.0.0/8> is updated "
Please use RFC5737 examples instead.


Nit:
1: "This is overly complex for such a simple application that only needed to 
have access to the Loc-RIB."
s/needed/needs/

2: It can greatly reduce time to troubleshoot and resolve issues if operators 
had the history of Loc-RIB changes.
s/had/have/

3: "BGP Instance: it refers to an"
s/it//
