Hi Aijun, We just posted a new revision to address your comments. Please check the update. https://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-ietf-pce-association-policy-12
As per your suggestion, new error-codes and examples in the appendix are added. Many thanks for your comments!

The content of this draft has illustrated some possible reasons ---(e.g. out of range value, badly encoded value...), but the returned error information blends them together again. Can we define some new error-value to reflect them more clearly? I think the parser of the association policy can give the detail information. And, seems no authors of this draft to response these questions?

How about -> Further, if one or more parameters received in the POLICY-PARAMETERS-TLV received by the PCEP speaker are considered as unacceptable in the context of the associated policy (e.g. out of range value, badly encoded value...), the PCEP speaker MUST reject the PCEP message and send a PCErr message with Error-Type 26 "Association Error" and Error-Value 5 "Operator-configured association information mismatch" [RFC8697]. PCEP speaker SHOULD log this event. > And, if there are some examples to show what association requirements can't > be accomplished by the SVEC object, and can only be done via PAG, the > document may be more convincible. > SVEC object has an impact only on the diversity association and it was covered in https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8800.html#name-relationship-to-svec. Your suggestion to add an example is a good idea. Can the authors consider adding something in the appendix? Thanks!
