Hi Pablo, I really don't think it is a good idea to use a layer-2 discovery protocol to install routes in the IP(v6) RIB - akin to "bringing a knife to a gun fight".
We explicitly avoided installing any routes in https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-acee-idr-lldp-peer-discovery/ Also, RIPv2 is explicitly designed to fulfill this requirement and there are readily available host implementations.
