Hi Lars, Thanks a lot for your comments. I wonder whether the following modified text for Congestion Consideration section is OK from your point of view: Since the MPLS-in-UDP encapsulation causes MPLS packets to be forwarded through "UDP tunnels", the congestion control guidelines for UDP tunnels as defined in Section 3.1.3 of [RFC5405] SHOULD be followed. Specifically, MPLS can carry a number of different protocols as payloads. When the payload traffic is IP-based and congestion-controlled, the UDP tunnel SHOULD NOT employ its own congestion control mechanism, because congestion losses of tunneled traffic will already trigger an appropriate congestion response at the original senders of the tunneled traffic. When the payload traffic is not known to be IP-based, or is known to be IP-based but not congestion-controlled, the UDP tunnel SHOULD employ an appropriate congestion control mechanism. Furthermore, because UDP tunnels are usually bulk-transfer applications as far as the intermediate routers are concerned, the guidelines as defined in Section 3.1.1 of [RFC5405] SHOULD apply.
