Hi,

If an I2RS client wants to set up a tunnel between 2 routers
(as a lame example), does it send 1 request to 1 I2RS agent
or 2 requests, 1 to each I2RS agent/router?  If 1 request, is the southbound
protocol between the I2RS agent and at least 1 router proprietary
or part of the standard?

I think this draft should be clear about what is in scope.
It seems to say that the southbound protocol is out of scope.
