    We did not limit the size at the beginning, but later due to limited
    size of ISIS TLVs we limited it to 8 bytes to leave some space for the
    attributes itself (draft-ietf-isis-te-app). We wanted to keep the
    consistency between ISIS and OSPF which also helps BGP-LS. 8 octets
    should be future-proof enough (64 apps).

    We keep the byte for the SABM and UDABM lengths to avoid problems of 
    existing implementation.

    thanks,
    Peter
