Jeff,

I agree. It appears the error in the RFC has been interpreted multiple ways and 
I’m leaning towards the recommending the Errata being accepted as submitted 
given the format in OSPF (RFC 7471) and the BGP-LS TE-PM draft. It would be 
interesting to hear what your implementation does.

Thanks,
Acee

Acee,

I'm glad you've made this comment.  The motivation for me reading this document 
and making the comment was the WGLC for
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idr-te-pm-bgp-09

I'm not familiar with what my employer's implementation does, but I suspect 
we'll get a public declaration of this shortly.  Meanwhile, you may wish to 
comment on the IDR WGLC on this since at least one protocol implementor (me) 
would be confused. :-)

Hi Jeff, et al,

Speaking as a WG member:

I agree there should be an Errata here but the interpretation taken by at least 
one implementation is to update the length to 5 rather than remove the RESERVED 
octet. I'd like to hear what other implementations have done.

Thanks,
Acee

   Notes
   -----
   In sections 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7, a RESERVED field is in the diagram and the 
text.  However, the length field of each of these TLVs is 4.  The RESERVED 
field is thus not present and should be removed in future editions of this 
document.
