1. Introduction
Connections among different Autonomous Systems (ASes) may be point-
to-point (P2P) links and broadcast links. For a P2P inter-AS TE
link, RFC 5316 defines a new TLV, the inter-AS reachability TLV, for
advertising the link.
It also defines three new sub-TLVs for inclusion in the inter-AS
reachability TLV to carry the information about the neighboring AS
number and the remote ASBR ID of an inter-AS link.
For a P2P inter-AS link, the information about its remote ASBR may be
configured. For a broadcast inter-AS link, no item configured
corresponds to the designated router (DR) of the link in ISIS. Since
no ISIS runs over any broadcast inter-AS link, no DR is selected. It
is hard to configure an item corresponding to the DR on a broadcast
link.
This document presents extensions to ISIS for advertising broadcast
inter-AS TE links through defining a new sub-TLV for a broadcast link
without configuring any item corresponding to the DR on the link.
