Dear Acee, Thanks a lot for your comments. I have revised the title of drafts and will take your suggestion to add more text on how to use the IFIT Capability information, once the submission is opened. Here is my quick reply:
IFIT is deployed in a specific domain referred as the IFIT domain. One network domain may consists of multiple IFIT domain. Within the IFIT domain, one or more IFIT-options are added into packet at the IFIT-enabled head node that is referred to as the “IFIT encapsulating node”. Then IFIT data fields MAY be updated by IFIT transit nodes that the packet traverses. Finally, the data fields are removed at a device that is referred to as the “IFIT decapsulating node”. The IFIT data fields must not leak to other domains. So, the IFIT encapsulating node need to know if the decapsulating node is able to support the IFIT capability. So that it can decide whether to add the IFIT-option or not. The solution is similar to RFC8491. We use IGP to advertise the capability, so that head node can use. By using BGP-LS, a centralized controller can also learn the IFIT Capability of nodes to determine whether a particular IFIT Option type can be supported in a given network.

They are definitely not ready for consideration. 1. IFIT is never expanded as an acronym. Seems it should be as early as the title. OSPF extensions for Advertising In-Situ Flow Information Telemetry (IFIT) Capability 2. You probably could come up with a more succinct acronym for IFIT. 3. The has no specification of how the capabilities are used. Are they purely informational?

A new optional TLV is extended to the OSPF RI Opaque LSA [RFC7770] to carry the IFIT node capability information. Such advertisements enable IFIT applications in an operational network domain. Here, the term "OSPF" includes both OSPFv2 and OSPFv3.
