Folks,

I have reviewed draft-ietf-ospf-prefix-link-attr-10 as part of the Operational
directorate's ongoing effort to review all IETF documents being processed by
the IESG.  These comments were written with the intent of improving the
operational aspects of the IETF drafts. Comments that are not addressed in last
call may be included in AD reviews during the IESG review.  Document editors
and WG chairs should treat these comments just like any other last call
comments.

Short Summary

This document defines OSPF opaque LSAs based on Type-Length-Value (TLV) tuples
that can be used to associate additional attributes with prefixes or links. 
Dependent on the application, these prefixes and links may or not be advertised
in the fixed-format LSAs.  The OSPF opaque LSAs are optional and fully backward
compatible.

Evaluation

This document is ready for publication. The opaque LSA's solve real problems
and the document is well written.

Nits

The Nit Checker complains about outdated references, but these can be addressed
by the RFC editor.
