Sure ;-)  let me ping Peter @ the bottom then ... I don't think any of the
stuff applies to OSPF (was ISIS nits) except we can consider an encaps
paragraph. We basically suggest both to replace in ISIS the encaps section
like this

before:

"
   All routers in the flooding scope of the BIER TLVs MUST advertise the
   same encapsulation for a given <MT,SD>.  A router discovering
   encapsulation advertised that is different from its own MUST report a
   misconfiguration of a specific <MT,SD>.  All received BIER
   advertisements associated with the conflicting <MT, SD> pair MUST be
   ignored.

"

now

"

   Multiple encapsulations MAY be advertised/supported for a given
   <MT,SD>.  Clearly, however, there MUST be at least one encapsulation
   type in common in order for a BIER encapsulated packet to be
   successfully forwarded between two BFRs.

"

I do think that OSPF would benefit from adding this section to clarify the
issue which is not theoretical now that we have Ethernet.


So Peter, any ETA on outstanding OSPF nits now that we're tying up the IETF
LC?

thanks

--- tony
