adrian,could you explain the reasoning for having a TE specific TLV in the auto-mesh document with area and AS-wide flooding scope while the TE router cap TLV is restricted to an area flooding scope ? shouldn't be one way or the other i.e. either restrict all TE info area-local or allow for TE router cap TLV with AS-wide flooding scope ?
note: there is nothing in the TE router cap TLV that would impact scaling more than the TE auto-mesh TLV does

Hi, We have two immediate milestones to address: Oct 05 First version WG I-D for Advertising TE Node Capabilities in ISIS and OSPF Oct 05 First version WG I-D for Automatic discovery of MPLS-TE mesh membership There are two personal submissions which address these topics: draft-vasseur-ccamp-te-node-cap-01.txt draft-vasseur-ccamp-automesh-02.txt I propose that we move these into the WG and then kick the tires thoroughly. Opinions please. Thanks, Adrian .
