Hello co-authors,

The solution proposed ignores all the previous work done to address this particular issue. Without going into more details
Please read RFC8662 to better understand all the different pieces involved.
draft-ietf-isis-mpls-elc/draft-ietf-ospf-mpls-elc specifically to understand control plane involved.

Cheers,
Jeff
