Hi all, 

Brian, whether to maintain the document standalone was discussed by the WG. You 
may refer, for example, to the message from Deborah which clarifies this point: 
https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/lisp/current/msg07886.html. One of the 
outcomes of that discussion is to add an "updates" header to 8113bis.

FWIW, one of the issues that led to that conclusion was whether to cite 
rfc8113bis as normative in 6833bis (the approach I initially supported) and 
agreed by Dino 
(https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/lisp/current/msg07882.html). Deborah 
convinced me that citing 8113bis will lead to circular dependency. Which is a 
fair argument. 

The "updates" tag was justified as follows:

(1)

RFC6833bis includes the following:
 
   Values in the "Not Assigned" range can be assigned according to
   procedures in [RFC8126].

That text is updated by RFC8113bis to be aligned with 8113: 

   Values can be assigned via Standards Action

(2) 

RFC8113bis extends the type field to grab more bits/values when the available 
types are exhausted. This is captured in 8113bis:

   The values in the range 0-1023 are assigned via Standards Action.
   This range is provisioned to anticipate, in particular, the
   exhaustion of the LISP Packet types.

Dino: If (1) is fixed directly in RFC6833bis, then I'm fine to remove the 
"updates" header because (2) can be also seen as an extension. 

Cheers,
Med
