I don't see such a mechanism in this draft. |

11 | Mark Townsley | PROTO Stewart Bryant is the WG Chair responsible for this WG draft. 1.a) Have the chairs personally reviewed this version of the Internet … PROTO Stewart Bryant is the WG Chair responsible for this WG draft. 1.a) Have the chairs personally reviewed this version of the Internet Draft (ID), and in particular, do they believe this ID is ready to forward to the IESG for publication? Yes 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? This document has been fully reviewed by the PWE3 WG. 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, etc.)? We have no concerns. 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. We have no concerns. 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 is firm consenus for the design described in this document. 1.f) Has anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme discontent? If so, please summarize the areas of conflict in separate email to the Responsible Area Director. No 1.g) Have the chairs verified that the document adheres to all of the ID nits? (see http://www.ietf.org/ID-Checklist.html). http://tools.ietf.org/wg/pwe3/draft-ietf-pwe3-atm-encap/draft-ietf-pwe3-atm-encap-11.nits.txt reports no nits, but some experimental warnings. We deal with those below. 1.h) Is the document split into normative and informative references? Are there normative references to IDs, where the IDs are not also ready for advancement or are otherwise in an unclear state? (note here that the RFC editor will not publish an RFC with normative references to IDs, it will delay publication until all such IDs are also ready for publication as RFCs.) Yes, it is correctly split into normative and non-normative references. All normative references are RFCs. 1.i) For Standards Track and BCP documents, the IESG approval announcement includes a write-up section with the following sections: * Technical Summary An ATM Pseudowire (PW) is used to carry ATM cells over an MPLS network. This enables service providers to offer "emulated" ATM services over existing MPLS networks. This document specifies a number of methods for the encapsulation of ATM cells within a pseudowire, and describes the applicability of each method. * Working Group Summary The PWE3 WG have thoroughly reviewed this design. The design is technically identical to Y.1411 and Y.1412, and the design represents the combined efforts of ITU SG13 and IETF PWE3WG. * Protocol Quality There are a number of existing implementations of this protocol The following edits should be made by the RFC editor 1) In Section 5.4. (MPLS Shim TTL Values): the sentence should end with a full-stop - there is no text that follows the word "dependent". 2) In informative references add [RFC2914] "Congestion Control Principles", S. Floyd, September 2000 3) [RFC4029] is mentioned on line 238 should be [RFC4026] 4) [RFC3270] is defined on line 1563, but not referenced, the reference should be deleted. |

It's clear that this service doesn't emulate ATM with respect to latency, jitter, reordering, QOS in general, and layer 2 security. I might be talked into No Objection if the applicability statement was much stronger as a health warning. Minor comments from Gen-ART review by Gonzalo Camarillo: RFC 4029 and RFC 2914 are missing in the References Section. RFC 4026 and RFC 3270 and in the References Section but are not used in the text. All acronyms should be expanded on the first use. RFCs are referenced in the text in two ways: 1) ... as defined in [RFCxxxx] 2) ... as defined in RFCxxxx [RFCxxxx] it would be good to choose one and stick to it. Carriage return problem in the second paragraph of Section 5.1.3. |

11 | Thomas Narten | From: Thomas Narten To: Stewart Bryant , Danny McPherson cc: lmartini@cisco.com Date: Mon, 30 Aug 2004 16:00:51 -0400 Subject: AD review of draft-ietf-pwe3-atm-encap-06.txt Here is … From: Thomas Narten To: Stewart Bryant , Danny McPherson cc: lmartini@cisco.com Date: Mon, 30 Aug 2004 16:00:51 -0400 Subject: AD review of draft-ietf-pwe3-atm-encap-06.txt Here is my AD review. My guess is an updated ID would be in order before IETF LC. Thomas 8/27/04: review of -06, WG says it is done. General: there are an awful lot of optional encapulations. That does not promote interoperability, since both PE devices need to implement an encapsulation in order for them to be used. Are they really necessary? Are they really expected to be used? Can we remove some of them or should we put them in other documents where it is more clear they are not core? I find it interesting that this document says it this is for L2TP or MPLS. No where do I see anything w.r.t. L2TP where any feature of L2TP is actually used. I.e., what features of L2TP are actually used by this document? I would assume the sequencing, but where is this discussed? I'm really concerned that all these encapsulations use only 16 bits for sequence numbers. That's a small space. No references in abstract please. Abstract could be a bit more detailed. Section 2 duplicates Section 1. move section 3 to the end. > This document describes a method to carry ATM services over L2TP > and MPLS. It lists ATM specific requirements and provides > encapsulation formats and semantics for connecting ATM edge > networks through a core packet network using L2TP or MPLS. The > techniques described in this draft will allow ATM service > providers to take advantage of new technologies in the core in > order to provide ATM multi-services. Does this document cover more than encapsulations?
