Hi Les,

I am not sure I am following you.

As per the abstract in draft-hegde-isis-advertising-te-protocols, all I
am talking about is "a mechanism to indicate which traffic engineering
protocols are enabled on a link in IS-IS." At this stage, are you
questioning the relevance of the poll to the IS-IS WG? (In case we
really had considered another WG for this I-D, we would certainly have
ended up in TEAS, not in CCAMP nor MPLS).
In case mentioning the node counterpart is confusing, please ignore RFC
5073.
In case joining Chris B's open discussion about renaming the "TE
protocol sub-TLV" is not obvious, please do not consider that as a
prerequisite to adopt the I-D.

You suggest RFC 5029 as a candidate solution for
draft-hegde-isis-advertising-te-protocols (section 3). That would save
us a sub-TLV codepoint and leave us 14 bits instead of 32. This looks
like a reasonable way forward to me.

By the way, the suggested value for the sub-TLV in
draft-hegde-isis-advertising-te-protocols is already allocated!
Shraddha/Chris, could you please drop suggested codepoints from the I-D?

Thanks,

Julien
