This document is part of a cluster of documents thightly related, namely: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-profile/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-sidrops-8210bis/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-verification/ If possible, it would make sense that the assigned reviewer for this document is willing to review the other two documents. The plan is to have early reviews for all the three documents before IETF 126. Thanks |

Document: draft-ietf-sidrops-aspa-profile-27 Reviewer: Peter Yee Review Date: 2026-07-19 IETF LC End Date: IESG Telechat date: Not scheduled for a telechat Summary: This draft specifies an Autonomous System Provider Authorization object that is protected by CMS. The object allows a customer Autonomous System to specify its Provider Autonomous System(s). Major issues: None Minor issues: Page 3, 1st paragraph after lettered items, 1st sentence: I’m having troubles understanding how this specification constitutes a profile. A profile of what? As far as I can see, it specifies an object, its semantics, and related procedures. Admittedly, that object ends up inside of a CMS wrapper, but I don’t really think of that as making it a profile of a CMS-protected object. To be clear, this is a really minor issue, and I could be wrong about what constitutes a profile. Nits/editorial comments: Page 3, 4th paragraph after lettered items, 1st sentence: change “CMS [RFC5652] protected” to “CMS-protected [RFC 5652]”. Change “content type” to “content-type”. Page 6, section 3.3, 1st bullet item: change “CustomerASID” to “customerASID”. Page 6, section 3.3, 4th bullet item: change “An” to “A”. Page 7, section 5.2, 1st sentence: Should “CAs” be “CAS”? I’m unclear which entity does the signing, but if it is the customer AS, then it should be “CAS”. Page 8, 1st paragraph, 3rd sentence: insert “as” between “CAS” and “invalid”. Append a comma after “e.g.”
