Re: [mpls] [Editorial Errata Reported] RFC3270 (1910)

Hi Francois and co-authors,

I think you are correct. So I have no objection in changing that in the Errata.

Regards,

Hello,

Just looked back at RFC3270:
MAPnb defines the number of MAP entries carried inside the DIFFSERV  
object.
Each MAP entry defines the mapping between one EXP (now "COS") field  
value and one PHB.
Since there is only 8 possible EXP values, I think:
	* MAPnb should actually be encoded over 3 bits, and not 4 bits
	* value range should be 0-7.
Does that sound right?

If yes, I can update the errata with appropraite required changes.

Francois
