Re: [OSPF] New Version Notification for draft-liang-ospf-flowspec-extensions-01.txt

["Les Ginsberg (ginsberg)" <[e-mail]>]

Adding the IS-IS WG since there is an equivalent draft for IS-IS submitted by the same authors.

"IF" this were something the respective WGs decide the protocol should support, then running a separate instance of the protocol so that the flowspec  advertisements can be isolated from the primary function of the IGP (routing) would be the right way to implement it - and this is precisely what GENINFO/MI (RFC 6823/6822) were defined to address. OSPF Transport instance would be the analogous mechanism for OSPF.

But the first question is whether this is something the IGPs should support at all. As Acee has indicated this was proposed previously in OSPF and there was little interest. In the case of IS-IS there is even less reason to consider it since IS-IS is NOT deployed as a PE-CE protocol.
