I agree and sometimes flexibility becomes an unwanted necessity (as is the case here with option (a)). IMO, option (b) length based check for NH should be preferred, since it works for all AFI/SAFIs with an assumption that NH could be one IPv4 or IPv6 prefix. Very reasonable option. Option (a

Hi Robert: I was convinced. All of your points: (1) No need to relax the check of nexthop as my previous suggestion. (2) No need to update 5549/6515, and the nexthops defined in section 3.1 to 3.4 are all right to me now. (3) if we would be defining new SAFI we can write anything

My vote - Reject. Justification: Irrespective if we would reject or accept the erratum implementations must be able to handle 10 years old RFC so must be able to properly recognize the next hop to be either of length 16 or 24. (I am putting aside the 32/48 invention). So that means that next hop

Hi all, For L3VPN features, there are some differences: Per RFC4634, the IPv4-VPN routes shall carry the V4 Next-hop, beginning with an 8-octet RD and ending with a 4-octet IPv4 address. Per RFC4659, the IPv6-VPN routes shall carry the V6 Next-hop, beginning with an 8-octet RD and ending with

Hi folks, One question about MPLS Label value 3 used in : the Label value in any service route NLRI encoding MUST be set to Implicit NULL [RFC3032]. Label = Implicit NULL I think the more common use of MPLS Label to represent "invalid" is to use zero, as in RFC7432 and RFC6556. Why this doc
