Summary: Ready with issues
--------

Comment:
--------

I haven't seen a response to my Last Call review, so this is the same.

Needs to be approved along with draft-ietf-pce-pcep-domain-sequence.

Major Issues:
-------------

> 3.2.1.  Autonomous system
>
>   [RFC3209] already defines 2-Byte AS number.
>
>   To support 4-Byte AS numbers as per [RFC6793], the following
>   subobject is defined:
>
>      0                   1                   2                   3
>      0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
>     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
>     |L|    Type     |     Length    |         Reserved              |
>     +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
>     |                          AS-ID (4 bytes)                      |

I don't understand why that is considered Experimental. It seems like
a major defect in RFC 3209 that needs to be fixed on the standards
track as soon as possible, independently of the present draft.

Minor Issues:
-------------

It would be nice to see a suggested timescale for the experiment in section 1.1.
How many years before this document should be evaluated?
