Most of my comments were nits that have been addressed by other reviewers ballots so I will not repeat them here. This leaves me with just a single comment on the abstract: Abstract# The sentence "Extensions exist that require significant IS-IS changes that could help address the problem, but a less drastic solution would be beneficial" implies that this document provides a pragmatic solution rather than a more intrusive update to the IS-IS protocol. This leaves me wondering what these extensions are, and I see no discussion around this further into the document (unless the text around [RFC7356] is what the authors were alluding too), or whether deployment of the solution in this document would allow for future extensions to be backwards compatible should the need arise to further define these "Extensions" in the future. Practically speaking I see no reasons why this should be a problem given that "significant IS-IS changes" could have implications far beyond MP-TLV so I am wondering if this sentence should just be removed as it does not really provide any value. _______________________________________________ Lsr mailing list -- lsr@ietf.org To unsubscribe send an email to lsr-le...@ietf.org
