Xiaohu – I also point out that there are at least two existing drafts which specifically address IS-IS flooding reduction in CLOS networks and do so in greater detail and with more robustness than what is in your draft:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lsr-distoptflood/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lsr-isis-spine-leaf-ext/ I do not see a need for yet another draft specifically aimed at CLOS networks. Note that work on draft-ietf-lsr-isis-spine-leaf-ext was suspended due to lack of interest in deploying an IGP solution in CLOS networks. You are suggesting in draft-xu-lsr-fare that AI is going to change this. Well, maybe, but if so I think we should return to the solutions already available and prioritize work on them.

Name: draft-xu-lsr-flooding-reduction-in-clos Revision: 01 Title: Flooding Reduction in CLOS Networks Date: 2023-11-22 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 6 URL: https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-xu-lsr-flooding-reduction-in-clos-01.txt Status: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-xu-lsr-flooding-reduction-in-clos/ HTMLized: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-xu-lsr-flooding-reduction-in-clos Diff: https://author-tools.ietf.org/iddiff?url2=draft-xu-lsr-flooding-reduction-in-clos-01 Abstract: In a CLOS topology, an OSPF (or ISIS) router may receive identical copies of an LSA (or LSP) from multiple OSPF (or ISIS) neighbors. Moreover, two OSPF (or ISIS) neighbors may exchange the same LSA (or LSP) simultaneously. This results in unnecessary flooding of link- state information, which wastes the precious resources of OSPF (or ISIS) routers. Therefore, this document proposes extensions to OSPF (or ISIS) to reduce this flooding within CLOS networks. The reduction of OSPF (or ISIS) flooding is highly beneficial for improving the scalability of CLOS networks.
