Hi Les,

I was going over the 2 SR-MSD documents (IS-IS and OSPF) just wondering how 
viable it would be and if we should combine them.

In any case doing the diff highlighted a couple issues in the IS-IS version.

Issue: Under both the Node and Link sub-tlv's the MSD type (1?) is not actually 
mentioned, only the "MSD value", if one was pedantic it would mean that 
regardless of the type the value was always the same, certainly not what is intended. :)

Issue: The OSPF version adds text about what to do in the presence of multiple 
instances of the same TLV. This highlighted the fact that the IS-IS draft 
doesn't do this, but also doesn't talk about there only being 1 allowed.

Maybe Issue: We've got 2 drafts creating the same sub-[-sub]-tlv MSD type 
registry. I fully agree that we should only have one registry, but it's 
interesting that we'll have 2 publications that create and reference it. Also, 
where does this registry go in IANA? There are distinct IS-IS, OSPFv2 and 
OSPFv3 pages that contain the IANA registries for each protocol. Should we 
create a new shared LSR or IGP page? Anyway this might be a reason to combine 
the 2 documents.

While somewhat inelegant we could probably avoid any need to re-Last Call if 
the combination was basically a cut and paste operation.

Thanks,
Chris.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Link State Routing WG of the IETF.

        Title           : Signaling MSD (Maximum SID Depth) using IS-IS
        Authors         : Jeff Tantsura

Abstract:
   This document defines a way for an IS-IS Router to advertise multiple
   types of supported Maximum SID Depths (MSDs) at node and/or link
   granularity.  Such advertisements allow entities (e.g., centralized
   controllers) to determine whether a particular SID stack can be
   supported in a given network.  This document only defines one type of
   MSD maximum label imposition, but defines an encoding that can
   support other MSD types.
