Reviewer: Susan Hares
Review result: Not Ready

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.
