Re: [Idr] Adoption Call on DT document (draft-ietf-idr-bgp-autoconf-considerations-00.txt) [3/10/2021 to 3/31/2021]

Jeff,

And that is one of the other points I forgot to mention.

The agreed scope of the work was about automation of BGP
session establishment procedure in DC/MSDC env.

Throwing in (even into appendix) the reference to WAN/IXP BGP discovery
seems not to be even within the agreed scope.

Many thx,
R.
