Abstract:
RFC 8919 and RFC 8920 define Application Specific Link Attributes
(ASLA). Each ASLA includes an Application Identifier Bit Mask. The
Application Identifier Bit Mask includes a Standard Application Bit
Mask (SABM) and a User Defined Application Bit Mask (UDABM). The
SABM and UDABM determine which applications can use the ASLA as an
input.

This document introduces a new bit to the Standard Application
Identifier Bit Mask. This bit is called the Any Application Bit
(i.e., the A-bit). If the A-bit is set, the link attribute can be
used by any application. This includes currently defined
applications as well as applications to be defined in the future.
