Authors,

While we await the updates to the IANA registries, we have an additional 
question.

1) In Section 4.2.1, the following sentence was added: The entry in the "L2BM" 
field is “X”.  Would you like to add more context here (option A)? Or would you 
like to remove this sentence and add the "L2BM” column to Table 2 to match the 
"OSPFv3 Extended-LSA Sub-TLVs” registry (option B)?  See 
<https://www.iana.org/assignments/ospfv3-parameters/>. Please let us know your 
preference.

Original:
   The entry in the "L2BM" field is “X".

Perhaps A:
   The entry in the "L2BM" field is “X” (i.e., this is not a sub-TLV of the 
Router-Link TLV;
   it MUST NOT appear in the L2 Bundle Member Attributes sub-TLV).

Perhaps B:
   | Value      | Description                                |  L2BM      | 
Reference  |
  +======+===============================+===========+
   | 37           | OSPFv3 Prefix Attribute Flags |   X              | RFC 9792 
| 


Best regards,
RFC Editor/kc
