The IESG has received a request from the BGP Enabled Services WG (bess) to consider the following document: - 'Registry and Extensions for P-Multicast Service Interface Tunnel Attribute Flags' <draft-ietf-bess-pta-flags-02.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2016-04-13. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract The BGP-based control procedures for Multicast Virtual Private Networks make use of a BGP attribute known as the "P-Multicast Service Interface (PMSI) Tunnel" attribute. The attribute contains a one-octet "Flags" field. The purpose of this document is to establish an IANA registry for the assignment of the bits in this field. Since the Flags field contains only eight bits, this document also defines a new BGP Extended Community, "Additional PMSI Tunnel Attribute Flags", that can be used to carry additional flags for the PMSI Tunnel attribute. This document updates RFC 6514. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bess-pta-flags/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bess-pta-flags/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
