The IESG has received a request from the Multiprotocol Label Switching WG (mpls) to consider the following document: - 'RFC8287 Sub-TLV Length Clarification' <draft-ietf-mpls-rfc8287-len-clarification-02.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2019-07-31. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract RFC8287 defines the extensions to MPLS LSP Ping and Traceroute for Segment Routing IGP-Prefix and IGP-Adjacency Segment Identifier (SIDs) with an MPLS data plane. RFC8287 proposes 3 Target FEC Stack Sub-TLVs. While the standard defines the format and procedure to handle those Sub-TLVs, it does not sufficiently clarify how the length of the Segment ID Sub-TLVs should be computed to include in the Length field of the Sub-TLVs which may result in interoperability issues. This document updates RFC8287 by clarifying the length of each Segment ID Sub-TLVs defined in RFC8287. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mpls-rfc8287-len-clarification/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mpls-rfc8287-len-clarification/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
