Hi Paolo, all,

Thanks for the update. I have a question about something that was actually
already part of the previous version:


Sec 3.2:

In a non-indexed enterprise-specific TLV, the Length includes the PEN, which
I guess helps in making it backward compatible.
For indexed TLVs, the Length does not include the Index (Sec3 in bmp-tlv-13),
but what about indexed enterprise-specific TLVs? Does the length include the
length of the PEN, but not the Index?

Exactly!

If indeed the PEN is included and the Index is not, would it make sense to swap
the Index and PEN fields? Feels more consistent to interpret/process to me, but
perhaps I'm missing any downsides of such a reordering.

That makes a lot of sense, indeed. Will update this in the next revision of the document. Thank you!

Paolo
