Each field type is on a separate line - which I think makes for a clear definition. It may not be what you are used to seeing - but as the point of a diagram is to ensure that the format of the encoded TLV is unambiguous I think we are in good shape here. I would like to leave this as is. > ### Section 3.3.1, paragraph 4 > ``` > The remote AS number field has 4 octets.

[LES:] You are right, of course, but the current language eliminates any ambiguity that might arise if someone were to think that we only intended to encode as many octets as the AS number has and opted to 0 fill - which of course is not what we are doing. > > ### Section 3.3.4, paragraph 4 > ``` > If the originating node does not support IPv4, the IPv6 Local ASBR ID > sub-TLV MUST be present in the inter-AS reachability TLV.
