What is the benefit for such control? Egress LSR does not use this value.

Lucy, we discussed this and decided it was better to have the egress control
the values of the ELI it advertises.  Plus, getting a reserved value would
be difficult

Hi Kireeti and Shane,

 

Could we consider use one of reserved label for ELI purpose? This will make
implementation much easy, i.e. not need to keep the state for each ELI
label. The approach can be used in general for RSVP-TE and BGP as well.

 

Regards,

Lucy
