OPS-DIR review: Status: Not ready - due to 6 authors. Summary: Excellent technical text with clear descriptions. The sequence number mechanism is a nifty algorithm. Issue: 6 authors. There are no technical issues and all operational issues have been carefully considered. Technical NITS: 1) Count to infinity Would an implementer or Wen Lin (a reviewer) familiar with the RFC7432 and this code change, check for the possibility of a "count to infinity using this assignment of sequence numbers? This is a NIT because I could not think of a network deployment and change where this might be possible, but the authors or Wen Lin might want to consider it. (By the way, the text is so good that I can spot this as a potential issue). 2. Minor editorial NITs: Please note that the editorial work on this text is excellent. These NITs are very minor tweaks. Section 2: text-1: @EVPN-IRB: / * EVPN-IRB: A BGP-EVPN distributed control plane based integrated routing and bridging fabric overlay discussed in [RFC9135]/ What's wrong - This sentence needs a period at the end of the sentence. text-2: @ EVPN PE: / An EVPN PE is typically also an IP or MPLS tunnel end-point for overlay VPN flow/ What's wrong - This sentence needs a period at the end of the sentence. Section 6.6: @last paragraph, explicit is incorrectly spelled (explcit) Section 7: 1 and 2nd paragraph text:/ * An overlay IP subnet may still be stretched across the underlay fabric; however, intra-subnet traffic across the stretched overlay is never bridged./ This is a borderline misuse of ";" as the sentences are not really parallel clauses. text-2: / In the absence of host MAC routes, the sequence number mobility Extended Community specified in [RFC7432], section 7.7, MAY be associated with a /32 or /128 host IP prefix advertised via EVPN Route Type 5./ What's wrong - use of commas obscures the text. text-2: / In the absence of host MAC routes, the sequence number mobility Extended Community specified in [RFC7432] in section 7.7 MAY be associated with a /32 or /128 host IP prefix advertised via EVPN Route Type 5.
