Dear Stewart, Here is the correction on the previous part: ====== This procedure requires to compute quartile values "on the fly" using the algorithm presented in [P2]. Minor English issue - missing text after requires ====== NEW This procedure requires the algorithm presented in [P2] to compute quartile values "on the fly”. Regards, J.

Older routers used either a hash on the labels as far down the stack as they could reach (the goal was to include the BoS label this was a VPN or a PW), or (more commonly) reached over the label stack (sometimes > incorrectly) and hash on the five tuple of the payload. > > ====== > This procedure requires to compute quartile values "on the fly" using the algorithm presented in [P2]. > > Minor English issue - missing text after requires ====== For reasons pointed out by one of the other reviewers, it is a pity that Class C is used, but it seems to be well embedded in the technology and would be difficult to change. > ======= > Nits says that there is a requirements language problem. I think that may be that it is simply in the wrong place.
