Hi, Chris:

For the use case A.1(inter-as topology recovery), RFC9346/RFC5392 based 
solution requires the prerequisite knowledge of remote identifier on each stub 
link. Considering there maybe tens/hundreds of links among the ASBRs, there is 
no easy way to get such information automatically now.

And, there are situations that the stub links are not the inter-as link【use 
case A.2(Egress Engineering for Anycast Servers)]】, which is not suitable to 
reuse the RFC9346/RFC5392 based solution.

Then, it is necessary to extend the protocol to solve the above scenarios in 
one general manner.

Best Regards

主题: Re: [Lsr] WG Adoption Call - draft-wang-lsr-stub-link-attributes 
(01/05/2024 - 01/19/2024)

[As WG Co-Chair]

  Hi Folks,

  Before posting support reasons please read and considerl
  *all* the email in the archive covering the first failed
  adoption call.

https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/lsr/Li7wJsaY68gzJ8mXxff7K-Fy_nw/
https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=lsr%40ietf.org&q=stub+link&x=0&y=0

  This adoption call should be considering if the changes
  made to the document since it failed to be adopted the
  first time, are sufficient to reverse the WGs previous
  decision.

[As WG Member]

  To repeat from the first failed adoption call...

  "Reducing configuraiton" is not a reason to modify the
  routing protocols. Operators aren't doing by-hand manual
  configuration, and even if they were we shouldn't be
  trying to support it in this day and age.

Thanks,
Chris.
