Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   The document defines methodologies for benchmarking
   EVPN and PBB-EVPN performance.  EVPN is defined in
   RFC 7432, and is being deployed in Service Provider networks. 

   Specifically this document defines the methodologies for
   benchmarking EVPN/PBB-EVPN convergence, data plane performance,
   and control plane performance.


Working Group Summary

   The doc went through WGLC 4 times. We sent the document out to BESS for review, to get SME eyeballs on the draft. At one point, the Doc Shepherd had concerns that we had too many EVPN drafts in the WG, asked the authors to work together to sort that out, which they did. We've also seen additional editing by the authors after feedback from Warren, and additional reviews from Brian on Sections 3 and 4.

Document Quality

   There are implementations of the protocol, but those implementations specifically are out of scope for this draft per se; BMWG is not a conformance WG.

Personnel

   Sarah Banks is the Document Shepherd
  Warren Kumari is RAD
