Technical Summary

   This bis document is a narrowly-scoped update to RFC 8920. The 
   updates are outlined in Section 15, "Changes to RFC 8920".

   Existing traffic-engineering-related link attribute advertisements
   have been defined and are used in RSVP-TE deployments.  Since the
   original RSVP-TE use case was defined, additional applications (e.g.,
   Segment Routing Policy and Loop-Free Alternates) that also make use
   of the link attribute advertisements have been defined.  In cases
   where multiple applications wish to make use of these link
   attributes, the current advertisements do not support application-
   specific values for a given attribute, nor do they support indication
   of which applications are using the advertised value for a given
   link.  This document introduces new link attribute advertisements in
   OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 that address both of these shortcomings.

   This document obsoletes RFC 8920.

Working Group Summary

   The document shepherd notes broad agreement and no 
   controversy (though note the one dissenting opinion
   that applied to rfc8919bis, and that was judged to be
   out of scope and in the rough, quite likely applies
   here as well).

Document Quality

   The shepherd notes, "Implementations of the base document exist."
   The scope of the bis doesn't require specialized review.

Personnel

   The Document Shepherd for this document is Christian Hopps. The
   Responsible Area Director is John Scudder.
