Add an appropriate reference No
Paul B.
input needed
Consistently use the term ‘OSS/BSS’ throughout the document
Page 112: single use of OSS
Multiple occurrences of reversed BSS/OSS (e.g. fig 96 – 100)
Definition: OSS/BSS: The operations support system (OSS) is a software system that enables a service provider to operate, administrate, monitor, analyze, and manage the services on its network. Together with a business support system (BSS) these functions support most customer-related activities, including ordering, billing, and support.

4. Comment #6 'host‘ is hardly used in specification (3 occurances)
Technical 15 3
423
The term "terminal" and "host" are used without providing a definition. It appears these terms are used to differentiate between different types of devices contain an end station and terminating the L3 dialog, however it is not clear what the difference is between a terminal and a host.
Define a terminal and if necessary a host showing what the difference or if they are the same thing then indicate they are the same or eliminate one of them from the draft. No
Paul B.
input needed
'host‘ is hardly used in specification (3 occurances)
Proposal is to replace ‚host‘ through ‚terminal‘ as host has nearly identical meaning to terminal
Introduce definition for ‚terminal‘ as requested by Paul
Definition: terminal A terminal is a computer or other device which ends connections across a communication network and is the point at which information resources, services, and applications enter and/or leave the network.

5. Comment #10 10
Technical 15 3
429
The definition of path relies on the less well defined "dataplane elements". Perhaps the path is through dataplane entity instances or simply though devices.
Strike the path definition No
Paul B.
define datapath instead
Definition: datapath Datapath denotes the forwarding path of packets through a network.
