Section 4.1 says:
An example of inter-subnet forwarding between subnet SN1, which uses a 24-bit IP prefix (written as SN1/24 in the future), and a subnet sitting in the WAN is described below. NVE2, NVE3, DGW1, and DGW2 are running BGP EVPN. TS2 and TS3 do not participate in dynamic routing protocols, and they only have a static route to forward the traffic to the WAN. SN1/24 is dual-homed to NVE2 and NVE3.
It should say:
An example of inter-subnet forwarding between subnet SN1, which uses a 24-bit IP prefix (hereafter referred to as SN1/24), and a subnet sitting in the WAN is described below. NVE2, NVE3, DGW1, and DGW2 are running BGP EVPN. TS2 and TS3 do not participate in dynamic routing protocols, and they only have a static route to forward the traffic to the WAN. SN1/24 is dual-homed to NVE2 and NVE3.
Notes:
In the original text, the phrase:
"(written as SN1/24 in the future)"
may be misinterpreted. The intended meaning is that the notation SN1/24, referring to subnet SN1 with a 24-bit IP prefix, will be used throughout the remainder of the document for brevity. However, the wording could be ambiguously perceived as either (a) suggesting that this notation will be adopted in future revisions or drafts, or (b) implying a forward-looking change in nomenclature.
