Summary: This draft provides unified support for multi-part TLVs in IS-IS to
allow TLVs to exceed the 255-octet limit by splitting contents between multiple
TLVs. It updates an IANA registry to enumerate which existing TLVs can use the
multi-part mechanism. I did not attempt to validate the MP-TLV column given in
the updated IANA instructions. I am not sufficiently cognizant of the problems
that might occur with multi-part TLVs to comment on whether there are some
tricky edge cases, but the recommendations given appear appropriate,
particularly the warning against deploying these MP-TLVs in networks that do
not fully understand them. There are some minor nits in the document that
should be fixed prior to publication. [Ready with Nits]

Major issues: None

Minor issues: None

Nits/editorial comments:

Page 1, Abstract, 1st sentence: I’d append “per TLV” at the end of the sentence
as it wasn’t initially clear to me that the 255-octet limit was on a per TLV
basis and not across all TLVs sent. If this is obvious to most practitioners,
then this change is unnecessary.

Page 3, section 1, 4th paragraph, 1st sentence: chance “occurences” to
“occurrences”.

Page 3, section 1, 6th paragraph: change “16 bit” to “16-bit”.

Page 4, section 3.1, 2nd sentence: change “is” to “are”.

Page 6, 2nd paragraph, last sentence: change “define” to “define(s)” to match
“specification(s)”.

Page 8, section 7, 2nd paragraph: change “disgnosing” to “diagnosing”.

Page 9, section 8, 1st sentence: change “interoperablity” to “interoperability”.

Page 10, section 8.2, 1st paragraph, 2nd sentence: append a comma after
“restrictions”.
