Tony –

My bad – you are right. Apologies.
The new signaling is needed.

The reason the new signaling is needed is because what is defined in this 
document is a leaderless deployment whereas RFC 9667 defines a leader-based 
deployment.
I forgot about this (which had been discussed along the way).

I am wondering if a name could be assigned to the new sub-TLV to make it easier 
to identify the difference between it and the existing sub-TLV defined by RFC 
9667?
Perhaps “Flooding Algorithm Leaderless Mode” ??
(Open to other suggestions.)

This will help when folks look at the codepoint registry (in years to come) to 
intuit the difference.

BTW, now that you have made this applicable to OSPF, you need to define 
codepoints for OSPFv2/v3 as well.

I agree with you that this is applicable to OSPF as well.

good


Related to that, I just noticed that in the new IETF version of this draft you 
introduced new signaling in 
https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-lsr-isis-flood-reduction-arch-00.html#name-signaling
defining a new sub-TLV in Router Capability TLV.

The signalling is not new and nothing has been "introduced" here. All of

https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-lsr-interop-flood-reduction-architecture-00.txt
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-prz-lsr-interop-flood-reduction-architecture/00/
https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-prz-lsr-interop-flood-reduction-architecture-01.html
  (on which this call is extended!)

contain it already.


But this is not necessary. You should be able to use the signaling already 
defined in RFC 9667: 
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9667.html#name-is-is-dynamic-flooding-sub-
RFC 9667 also defines signaling for OSPF – so you will be covered in this 
regard when you expand the scope of the draft to both protocols.

It is absolutely and perfectly necessary and the argument has been made 
previously AFAIR. I repeat them to keep the list straight.

RFC9667 TLV is simply unfit for the purpose.  It says

"Indicate that it supports dynamic flooding. This is indicated by the 
advertisement of this sub-TLV.

Indicate the set of algorithms that it supports."

The TLV necessary for  
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lsr-isis-flood-reduction-arch/ has 
totally different semantics, it indicates the algorithm that is _actively 
running_ on the node and it can announce _one and only one_.

Additionally, RFC9667 TLV lacks any normative language as to mandating its 
advertisement.  
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-lsr-isis-flood-reduction-arch/ 
clearly says that such a TLV MUST be announced for things to work properly
"The Sub-TLV MUST be advertised by a node that is actively running any pruner 
except a zero-pruner."

Ultimately, I think based on your comment/requirement the draft specifically 
ended up saying

"Dealing with interoperability or lack thereof between this framework and other 
published frameworks such as e.g. 
[RFC9667<https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-prz-lsr-interop-flood-reduction-architecture-01.html#RFC9667>]
 is explicitly outside the scope of this document."

and hence intertwining the stuff with 9667 given its differing and 
underspecified semantics makes zero sense overall.

back from some days off and starting to track down all the comments/updating. 
Wouldn't it be more natural to leave out the -isis- out here, this stuff 
applies to ospf or anything in LSR space really w/o being specific ?

And I'll knuckle down and do some !primitive! ascii figures ;-)

Hi Tony,

Sounds good. Can you republish the document as 
draft-ietf-lsr-isis-flood-reduction-arch-00.txt?

Thanks,
