Thanks, Ali. Yes, I think this should be explicit in the spec. I’d also suggest being explicit about what “ignore the rest” means. It could mean one of two things — 1. Don’t pay attention to the extra ones for purposes of computing the local forwarding table, but store them and propagate them.

Hi John, Sorry for the delay. The answer to your 1st question is no and the answer to your 2nd question is that the receiver should pick the first one in the list and ignore the rest. If it helps, I can add couple of lines to that affect to the corresponding section. Cheers, Ali From: John
