Dear PALS WG and chairs,

I'd like to inform you about this new revision (-02) of the draft. 

In this revision, we have addressed all the comments from the LC. Specifically, the sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3.2, 4.5, and 7 have been updated to particularly address the comments from Steward Bryant and Mach Chen. Thanks again for their detailed review. We believe it has helped us improve the clarify of the document.

Regards,

/Yimin Shen

Abstract:
   This document specifies a fast mechanism for protecting pseudowires
   against egress endpoint failures, including egress attachment circuit
   failure, egress PE failure, multi-segment PW terminating PE failure,
   and multi-segment PW switching PE failure.  Operating on the basis of
   multi-homed CE, redundant PWs, upstream label assignment and context
   specific label switching, the mechanism enables local repair to be
   performed by the router upstream adjacent to a failure.  The router
   can restore a PW in the order of tens of milliseconds, by rerouting
   traffic around the failure to a protector through a pre-established
   bypass tunnel.  Therefore, the mechanism can be used to reduce
   traffic loss before global repair reacts to the failure and the
   network converges on the topology changes due to the failure.

Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
