Technical Summary
This document specifies extensions to OSPF Router Informational
(RI) to advertise multiple node tunnel capabilities and associated
tunnel parameters (e.g., endpoint). These tunnel capabilities can
then be used to determine whether an OSPF router can act as the
endpoint for a specific tunnel type (i.e., encapsulation).
Working Group Summary
There was concern that the document didn't satisfy a real
requirement and was unnecessary. Much of the debate transpired
in the IS-IS WG. Subsequently, consensus was reached on the
attendant use cases.
Document Quality
This document has been a WG document for more than 1 1/2 years
and has been stable other than addressing minor comments. I do not know of implementations.
