My apologies for the late review of this document.

Summary: Ready with nits


Minor (but some of these might be more serious):

In 6.2.2:

If an implementation of BGP-LS detects a malformed attribute, then it
    SHOULD use the ’Attribute Discard’ action as per
    [I-D.ietf-idr-error-handling] Section 2.

This needs to be a Normative reference. Or you can keep it as 
Informative, if you change the sentence not to use RFC 2119 language.

In 3.3.1.1 - does this need a new IANA registry? (I am fine if you think 
you don't).

In 3.3.1.3/3.3.2.7 - what is "subset of the FQDN"?

In 3.3.2.3:

       The TE Default Metric TLV carries the TE-metric for this link.
       The length of this TLV is fixed at 4 octets.

I am probably showing my ignorance, but is the term "TE-metric" defined 
somewhere? The description below suggests it has substructure, which I 
don't know anything about.

        If a source protocol (e.g.
        IS-IS) does not support a Metric width of 32 bits then the high
        order octet MUST be set to zero.

Best Regards,
Alexey
