Hi Tony,

I am not looking for technical support, but looking for IETF's perspective
regarding the system id in IS-IS.

As per the RFC 3784 there is no mention about any invalid value in a system
id.

Can you please confirm whether there is any such restriction to not to use
a SYS ID of 0000.0000.0000 as per IETF standards ?

If this mailing address is not appropriate for answering this query, can
you suggest/redirect me to the correct team from IETF ?

Thanks.

Regards
Jaideep
