No doubt. However, we do not normally attempt to protect against multiple
concurrent failures. Regardless of how the flooding

Hi Tony,
if we start with a single standardized algorithm, that is easy to implement and
deploy. We can leave the door open for additional algorithms to be defined
later together with the selection m

Given Les chimed in I can't resist either now ;-) Individual musings a bit
having done some of the stuff in the past ;-)

Peter,
How do we transition between algorithms in the approach that you suggest? Do
all non-stub devices need to be upgrade
I agree with Rob & Tony.
Converging on single algorithm across zoo of vendors is not going to happen
bearing in mind that every single change to such algorithm will require a
massive 1000s nodes software upgrade each time.
Note that even if IETF converges industry may not and that is a practical
Hi Peter,
Thank you for your comments.

Hi all,
I’ve submitted an updated version of my draft. Several changes:
- This collapses the two documents into one, so IS-IS is now included.
Placeholders are there for OSPF.
- I’ve expanded the discussion of failure modes.
- Minor bug fixes.
Your comments are solicited…
Tony
