If you want a way to more easily enable P2P mode by default – speak to your favorite vendor. That is a feature – not a protocol extension.
Completely disagree. To detect how many IGP peers are on the interface and to do the switchover gracefully between 2 vs N or N vs 2 protocol extension is needed. It is not a single side local hack. [Les:] You are saying that customers today need to deploy circuits on which they are uncertain whether they will connect two nodes or more than two nodes? This is the first I have heard of such a requirement. If this really is a deployment requirement then such an extension could be considered. But since the extension isn’t trivial and isn’t backwards compatible I would not take this on without justification. Be interested to hear if anyone else on the deployment side of things believes this is needed. Les Thx, R.
