I don't believe anyone will implement this congestion control suggestions - and if they do, I don't believe the resulting systems will be usable - they will be impossible to manage not to mention the incredible DOS opportunities. No advice on the threshold is provided. I think this needs to be updated to either be clear no congestion control is provided. The section titled "Applicability Statement" gives me no idea where this is applicable and where it is not. |

The I-D speaks about 'Ethernet' but does not provide any reference. What version of the Ethernet standard is targeted here? The latest approved version of the Ethernet standard is IEEE Std 802.3-2005, but the IEEE 802.3 WG also has in works an extension of the frame size as IEEE 802.3as. One cannot talk about Ethernet PDU and MTU without a proper reference. 2. The I-D speaks about 'Ethernet VLAN'. Strictly speaking there is no such thing, Virtual LANs are being defined by IEEE 802.1 and not only for Ethernet. However accepting terminology license based on the de-facto reality that most if not all VLANs run over Ethernet, there still is a need to specify if the document refers to IEEE 802.1Q VLANs (one 12-bit tag) or IEEE 802.1ad which accommodate multiple tags and introduce the concepts of Customer VLAN and Service VLAN. Maybe the VLANs referred in this I-D are transparent to the type of VLANs that are being connected, but even so there should be text explaining this. |

Note that the thresholds and time periods > for shutdown and possible automatic recovery need to be carefully > configured. This is necessary to avoid loss of service due to > temporary congestion, and to prevent oscillation between the > congested and halted states. RFC3985 also says: "Where congestion is avoided by shutting down a PW, a suitable mechanism must be provided to prevent it from immediately returning to service and causing a series of congestion pulses." I don't see such a mechanism in this draft, only the above acknowledgment of the issue and the recommendation of careful configuration. (This is identical to the DISCUSS I have raised against draft-ietf-pwe3-atm-encap. As far as I know, PWE3 is working on an approach for addressing this. This document, however, belongs to a different WG, so I'm not sure if any resolution that PWE3 comes up with would apply to this document as well. I'd hope that it would - can the authors/ADs confirm?) |

Which chair is the WG Chair Shepherd for this document? Yes. Ignacio Goyret will be the WG Chair Shepherd for this document. 1.b) Has the document had adequate review from both key WG members and key non-WG members? Do you have any concerns about the depth or breadth of the reviews that have been performed? The document has been reviewed in the l2tpext WG. There are no concerns about the extent of the reviews. 1.c) Do you have concerns that the document needs more review from a particular (broader) perspective (e.g., security, operational complexity, someone familiar with AAA, internationalization, XML, etc.)? I believe the document has received sufficient review since its initial publication in 2001. 1.d) Do you have any specific concerns/issues with this document that you believe the ADs and/or IESG should be aware of? For example, perhaps you are uncomfortable with certain parts of the document, or have concerns whether there really is a need for it. In any event, if your issues have been discussed in the WG and the WG has indicated it that it still wishes to advance the document, detail those concerns in the write-up. All concerns raised in the mailing list have been addressed. The single comment received during WG LC can be found here: http://www1.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/l2tpext/current/msg01038.html which was addressed with a new section in the document. To my knowledge, there aren't any outstanding concerns from anyone. 1.e) How solid is the WG consensus behind this document? Does it represent the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with others being silent, or does the WG as a whole understand and agree with it? There have been no dissenting voices during review and/or LC. 1.f) Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme discontent? If so, please summarise the areas of conflict in separate email to the Responsible Area Director. (It should be separate email because this questionnaire will be entered into the tracker). No. 1.g) Have the chairs verified that the document checks out against all the ID nits? (see http://www.ietf.org/ID-Checklist.html). Boilerplate checks are not enough; this check needs to be thorough. Yes. The document checks out without any errors. 1.h) Has the document split its references into normative and informative? Are there normative references to IDs, where the IDs are not also ready for advancement or are otherwise in an unclear state? The RFC Editor will not publish an RFC with normative references to IDs (will delay the publication until all such IDs are also ready for RFC publicatioin). If the normative references are behind, what is the strategy for their completion? On a related matter, are there normative references that are downward references, as described in BCP 97, RFC 3967 RFC 3967 [RFC3967]? Listing these supports the Area Director in the Last Call downref procedure specified in RFC 3967. References are properly split. All the references are to already published RFCs. 1.i) For Standards Track and BCP documents, the IESG approval announcement includes a write-up section with the following sections: * Technical Summary This document describes transport of Ethernet frames over Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TPv3). This includes the transport of Ethernet port to port frames as well as the transport of Ethernet VLAN frames. The mechanism described in this document can be used in the creation of Pseudo Wires to transport Ethernet frames over an IP network. * Working Group Summary The l2tpext WG has reviewed this document. All concerns raised during review and last call have been addressed. * Protocol Quality This is a fairly simple and straight-forward application of L2TPv3 to transport another type of traffic. |
