Peter,

I see a couple of items in the draft that are not what I expected given 
the notes I have from the DSL Forum meetings.   Can you comment on them?

Sec 4, para 2 - Server responding with tag. As I recall, this was going 
to be simply an echo of the tag received from the client to confirm the 
ability to server to handle the tag from the client. The draft is 
unclear on this, but it could be read as the server is generating a tag 
value based on local knowledge instead of just echoing the client's tag.

Sec 5.1, para 5? - "If a MRU option is not sent...". As I recall, we 
were not going to re-define the meaning of the absence MRU option, 
rather leave it at the standard value of 1500. It seems that this 
paragraph attempts to redefine the meaning of the absence as either 1492 
(if no PPP-MAX-PAYLOAD tag) or the value of the PPP-MAX-PAYLOAD tag if 
present.

Thanx,

Paul Howard
