Reference [1] does not talk about the security ramifications of preemption. Therefore a paragraph on this topic ought to be added to section 10.

The author agreed that he will make the change - since it's an RFC Editor document, I remove my Discuss before the revision. (The change is to add material differentiating DSTE from IP Diffserv: >> There may be differences between the quality of service expressed and >> obtained with Diffserv without DS-TE and with DS-TE. >> Because DS-TE uses Constraint Based Routing, and because >> of the type of admission control capabilities it adds to Diffserv, >> DS-TE has capabilities for traffic that Diffserv does not: Diffserv >> does not indicate preemption, by intent, whereas DS-TE describes >> multiple levels of preemption for its Class Types. Also, Diffserv >> does not support any means of explicitly controlling overbooking, >> while DS-TE allows this. When considering a complete quality of >> service environment, with Diffserv routers and DS-TE, it >> is important to consider these differences carefully.
