I have reviewed version 06 for the Routing Directorate

Firstly I apologise for taking so long to review this text.

I admit that this is not an aspect of MPLS that I would consider that I have
strong expertise in. I would therefore recommend that the text be reviewed by
someone that specialises in MPLS OAM. The person that I would recommend in the
first instance is Greg Mersky if he is available.

That said the document seems sound.

It obviously needs a security section. I would clone the security section of
RFC8287 and then think about anything that degrades the security. At the moment
I cannot see any security issues not covered by RFC8287.

The text could do with a little light polish of the English in places.

Something to fix in the next pass is the inconsistency with Nil sometimes this
is NIL sometimes it is Nil.
