Abstract
Message types defined by the BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP) do provision for data in TLV - Type, Length, Value - format, either in the shape of a TLV message body, ie. Route Mirroring and Stats Reports, or optional TLVs at the end of a BMP message, ie. Peer Up and Peer Down. However the space for Type value is unique and governed by IANA. To allow the usage of vendor-specific TLVs, a mechanism to define per-vendor Type values is required. In this document we introduce an Enterprise Bit, or E-bit, for such purpose.
