Hi Rahul,

Addressing a specific point below.
Hi Rahul,

Thanks for your review.
See in line.


Few comments.


  1.  Page 8:
     *   The difference between "Intermediate Selection Process" and "Intermediate Flow Selection Process" is not clear. Is the first one selecting record purely on matching content (value of the fields) in the record and the second one selecting on matching attributes of the fields that are not part of the record in *addition* to matching content in the record? An example would help here.

Granted, this is difficult to understand from the definitions only. There is some history behind these two separate definitions. Anyway, you get it right from your message above.
I was thinking to add to a section 2.1 "Differences between Intermediate Selection Process and Intermediate Flow Selection Process" in the draft-ietf-ipfix-mediation-protocol draft. However, thinking about it some more, this section should really be done in draft-ietf-ipfix-flow-selection-tech-14, to avoid some more confusion.
There is already section 3. "Difference between Intermediate Flow Selection Process and Packet Selection". Some more text should be added on the difference between Intermediate Selection Process and Intermediate Flow Selection Process

When created, draft-ietf-ipfix-mediation-protocol will refer to that new section.
The new section has been added.
Please refer to http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ipfix-flow-selection-tech-15#section-4, and tell us if this is clear
If it's easier, have a look at the diffs.

Regards, Benoit
