The document is more or less ready for publication I think. It defines a few knobs that help operators control and avoid uncontrolled control plane load increase in the core routing infrastructure. It also defines default and recommended values for operators. So it does/can have an impact on the operation of the Internet, but I think it is a positive one. Question(s): - top of page 11: The choice to implement damping based on BGP routes or the procedures described in Section 5.1, is up to the implementor, but at least one of the two MUST be implemented. In the perspective of allowing damping to be done on RRs and ASBRs, implementing the BGP approach is recommended. Did you mean RECOMMENDED uppercase, or is the lower case intentional? I would think uppercase because in setion 7.1 it is stated/claimed that these procedures can be enabled on ASBRs and Route Reflectors. And in order to make this claim, the better be implemented, no? - section 7.3 2nd para: This section proposes default and maximum values, conservative so as to not significantly impact network dimentioning but still prevent I tried to find the work "dimentioning". But difficult to find. Does it mean the same as "domensioning"? From some description I get that impression, but I am not sure. Maybe it is just my poor command of English that causes me troubles here? nits: - page 3 towards bottom: of C-multicast routes". This specification provides appropriate detail on how to implement this approach and how to provide control to the operator, and for this reason, in an update to [RFC6514]. I guess s/in/is/ ? Bert
