Hi Don,

Please, see 1.2 RFC4203 for the link protection type/ capability. You
said it is covered, but I couldn't find the word "protection" in your
draft. How exactly it is covered?
Note also that IP metric/cost and TE metric are different things. What
is covered by the BGP MED?
Also how about the "Interface MTU size" attribute(1.4)?

Igor

Hi Igor

Sorry for the delay on this. 

TE Metric is covered by the BGP MED metric - We will add a note to this
effect. SRLG we have not included right now. I proposed to Hamid and
Yakov we carry colors for a rudimentary SRLG capability but we have not
closed on this. 

I not sure about your reference of the link protection capability.
Could you look at the list below and see if we missed it?

Here is the objects we have so far:

-Switching Cap (Covered)        
-Encoding (Covered)  
-Max LSP Bandwidth at priority 0 (Covered)      
-Max LSP Bandwidth at priority 1 (Covered) 
-Max LSP Bandwidth at priority 2(Covered) 
-Max LSP Bandwidth at priority 3(Covered) 
-Max LSP Bandwidth at priority 4(Covered) 
-Max LSP Bandwidth at priority 5(Covered) 
-Max LSP Bandwidth at priority 6(Covered) 
-Max LSP Bandwidth at priority 7(Covered) 
-Capability-specific information (variable)(Covered) 
-Local and Remote Identifiers(Covered) 
-Link Protection Type(Covered) 
-Interface Switching Capability(Covered) 
-Minimum LSP Bandwidth(Covered)
-Indication(Covered)  
 

Regards,
Don
