Nature: Enhancement
Severity: Minor
Summary: Summary: In section 2.3.3, the syntax for a network address in a
flow specification is defined as:
<address> ::= <carrier_protocol> ["=" <networkAddress> ":" <portList>]
We feel that consideration should be given to changing the colon
separator ":" to a semi-colon ";". The reason is that separating the
host from the port number using a colon makes parsing IPv6 addresses
from the flow specification more difficult.
Resolution:
Revised Text: := <carrier_protocol> ["=" <networkAddress> ":" <portList>]
