    DISCUSS:
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    Section 7.  A DISCUSS for discussion.  Thanks for this enumeration of 
writeable
    and readable nodes which could be considered sensitive.  Per the list of 
nodes
    that could expose the topology of the network, wouldn’t the following also 
have
    sensitive topology information:
    
    -- /isis/local-rib

Although not as detailed as the Link State Database, a case could also be made 
for the local RIB. I'll add it to the sensitive operational data. 
    
    -- /isis/hostnames

These is basically a mapping of hostnames to ISO System IDs. The ISO System ID 
is really only used by IS-IS (native CLNS is a thing of the past). I really 
don't see this as being all that useful to an attacker. 
    
    Furthermore, shouldn’t the log files also be protected as the errors or 
status
    posted there could also leak topology information: -- /isis/spf-log     -- 
/isis/lsp-log

This doesn't include the contents of the LSP - only the LSP ID that caused the 
SPF. I don't see how this would that sensitive - other than that someone 
accessing the SPF and LSP logs could determine that the IS-IS Routing domain is 
volatile. 

Thanks,
Acee
