Dear Angela
Thank you for your comments. I will improve the
file with all the comments and will post the new version on the web at the
end of the week.
1) "transfer an immediate node of the ring between source and
destination"
I will use 'passing through' instead of 'transfer'
2) I like to use control roundtrip delay.
Typo corrected
best regards, Harmen

- First set
Hello Harmen
Great work!! A long list with
several terms and definitions!
As I was going through it, I got some
questions about them.
I could not understand what you mean
by "transfer an immediate node of the
ring between source and
destination" in the definition of a Transit node
delay. Am I
missing anything?
round-trip delay definition: I'm not sure if
I agree with the definition,
since round-trip delay has a more
general definition (delay for a packet to
leave one node,
reach its destination, and then come back to the source of
the
packet). In order to avoid confusion, isn't better if we define a
more
specific term for the definition we want in RPR for the
control packet? (such
as effective control delay, or even
control round trip delay, any other
term?)
Also, I think there is a typo on the round-trip delay definition
"time
required for a control packet to reach itS
destination...".
