Document: draft-ietf-idr-ext-opt-param-11
Reviewer: Christer Holmberg
Review Date: 2021-04-15
IETF LC End Date: 2021-04-09

Summary: The document is easy to read, and I have no technical issues. However,
I do have a minor question, and a couple of editorial suggestions, that I'd
like the authors to address.

Major issues: N/A

Minor issues:

Q1: As far as I understand, the document only defines a new BGP OPEN Optional
Parameter Type, but does not modify/add procedures in RFC 4271. So, is the
document really an update to RFC 4271? And, when reading RFC 5429, I cannot
find any text saying that new parameter types would require an update to RFC
4271. I also looked at a few other RFCs that add new values to the BGP IANA
registry, and they were not updating any RFC.

Nits/editorial comments:

Q2: I suggest that Section 2 is renamed to  "New Optional Parameter Type code",
or something like that. OR, if the document really is updating RFC 4271,
perhaps "Update to RFC 4271".

Q3: I suggest that Section 3 is renamed to "Backward Compatibility", or
something like that.
