Hi Ali, Under RFC7432, the ordered list used for electing the DF/BDF is formed based solely on the numerical value of each router’s IP address, the originating router’s IP address. RFC7432-bis introduces a refinement, i.e., the ordered list is now formed based on the tuple of each router’s I

Hi Wen, The text in RFC7432bis for section 8.5 is basically a clarification to RFC7432 and has been around for several years (i.e., introduced in 2021) to ensure that the order list for DF election is uniformly formed among all the participating PEs in the redundancy group. The intention of RFC

Hi Ali, Thank you for the investigation. I think it will be good to specify the followings: 1. changing the ordered list from IP address only to a tuple of IP address length and IP address does not change the DF election result. 2. the reason for introducing the above change. Thanks, W
