no.
But if the corresponding algorithm is in another standards track document, it
would need to be registered and part of the standard range.
sure, the question was if "individual Flex-Algo value" needs to be
registered and the answer to that is no. We have reserved the range of
algos from 128 to 255 to flex-algos and there is no further IANA
registration needed for those.
thanks,
Peter
Thanks,

that is right.

we only have a single calculation type for now which is SPF. We added it
for future if anyone wants to use a different one.

It's the Calc-Type which indicates how metric is used. Metric-Type
indicates which metric is used.
thanks,
Peter
