Section 6.1 says:
- Group ID
An arbitrary 32-bit value that represents a group of PWs that is
used to create groups in the PW space. The Group ID is intended
to be used as a port index or a virtual tunnel index. To simplify
configuration, a particular PW Group ID at ingress could be part
of a Group ID assigned to the virtual tunnel for transport to the
egress router. The Group ID is very useful for sending wildcard
label withdrawals or PW wildcard status Notification messages to
remote PEs upon physical port failure.
It should say:
- Group ID

remote PEs upon physical port failure or transport tunnel failure.
Notes:
The PW group can be created on basis of the transport tunnel index.
So Group Id can be used to send PW wildcard status notification to remote PEs on physical port failure or Transport tunnel failure.
--VERIFIER NOTES--
