[Geopriv] draft-ietf-geopriv-l7-lcp-ps DISCUSS by Dan

Hi Dan,

Regarding your DISCUSS:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/idtracker/draft-ietf-geopriv-l7-lcp-ps/comment/
97878/

[IESG Evaluation DISCUSS]
1. Since this document was written IEEE 802.1AB was approved and deployed. I
suggest the following change in Section 5:

OLD:

Switch/Port Number:

This identifier is available only in certain networks, such as
enterprise networks, typically available via proprietary protocols
like CDP or, in the future, 802.1ab.

NEW:

Ethernet Switch (Bridge)/Port Number:

This identifier is available only in certain networks, such as
enterprise networks, typically available via the IEEE 802.1AB
protocol [xx] or proprietary protocols like the Cisco Discovery
Protocol (CDP) [yy]

Adding informative references would also be nice for IEEE 802.1AB and CDP
would
also be useful.

[xx] IEEE 802.1AB-2005 IEEE Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area
Networks
Station and Media Access Control Connectivity Discovery -
http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802/download/802.1AB-2005.pdf

Somebody should be able to provide a reference to CDP.


[hannes] Fixed.

2. The four requirements in the Security Considerations section deserve to
be
written with 2119 capitalized MUST.

[hannes] Fixed.

Regarding your COMMENT:

There are plenty of acronyms not expanded at the first occurence: USB, DSL,
PPoE, etc.

[hannes] Good point. Fixed.
