I have reviewed this document as part of the security directorate's ongoing effort to review all IETF documents being processed by the IESG. These comments were written primarily for the benefit of the security area directors. Document editors and WG chairs should treat these comments just like any other last call comments. This draft describes an extension to GMPLS RSVP-TE signaling that enables the transfer of connection ownership between the Management and the Control Planes. Generally, the draft seems to cover relevant possible failures and references another draft (sec-fwk) that provides additional security considerations. My primary comment on the draft is that it was not clear to me how section 5 related to the steps in section 4. Bearing in mind that I am not familiar with RSVP, it seems like there could be one set of procedures that accommodate the two options for retrieving information. As written, some portions of the steps in section 4 appear to be generic, i.e., "Each LSR that receives a Path message with the H bit set...", while other portions of section 4 appear to limit the applicability of the steps to cases where the ERO method is used, i.e., "In this mode of handover, the Path message also carries an ERO...". Section 5 also allows an ERO to be optionally included.
