Hi Eugene,

This looks like a typo.  The field length should be 4, not 5.  There
once was a Flags field, but as it had no obvious use, so it was
removed.  Obviously that part of the text wasn't updated to reflect the
change - I'll update in my working copy and it will be in any further
releases!

Thanks,

Rick

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Mobile Ad-hoc Networks WG of the IETF.

        Title          : DLEP Link Identifier Extension
        Authors        : Rick Taylor
                          Stan Ratliff
    Filename        : draft-ietf-manet-dlep-lid-extension-03.txt
    Pages          : 7
    Date            : 2018-08-20

Abstract:
  There exists a class of modems that wish to support the Dynamic Link
  Exchange Protocol (DLEP) [RFC8175] but do not present a single Layer
  2 network domain as required by DLEP.  Such devices may be:

  o  Modems that maintain a varying link to some upstream backbone
      network infrastructure, where the ability to announce link state
      and DLEP metrics is desired, but the concept of a DLEP destination
      router for the backbone does not apply.  Examples of such devices
      can include LTE modems, IEEE 802.11 stations not in ad-hoc mode,
      and some satellite terminals.

  o  Modems that provide Layer 3 wide area network connectivity between
      devices, where individual DLEP destinations do exist, but are not
      directly reachable by MAC address.

  This document introduces an optional extension to the core DLEP
  specification, allowing DLEP to be used between routers and modems
  that operate in this way.

  Note:

  o  This document is intended as an extension to the core DLEP
      specification, and readers are expected to be fully conversant
      with the operation of core DLEP.
