IANA has assigned address family number 16388 (BGP-LS) in the

"Address Family Numbers" registry with this document as a reference.

IANA has assigned SAFI values 71 (BGP-LS) and 72 (BGP-LS-VPN) in the

"SAFI Values" sub-registry under the "Subsequent Address Family

Identifiers (SAFI) Parameters" registry.

IANA has assigned value 29 (BGP-LS Attribute) in the "BGP Path

Attributes" sub-registry under the "Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)

Parameters" registry.

IANA has created a new "Border Gateway Protocol - Link State (BGP-LS)

Parameters" registry at <http://www.iana.org/assignments/bgp-ls-

parameters>. All of the following registries are BGP-LS specific and

are accessible under this registry:

  • "BGP-LS NLRI-Types" registry

  • "BGP-LS Protocol-IDs" registry

  • "BGP-LS Well-Known Instance-IDs" registry

  • "BGP-LS Node Descriptor, Link Descriptor, Prefix Descriptor, and Attribute TLVs" registry

In all cases of review by the Designated Expert (DE) described here,

the DE is expected to ascertain the existence of suitable

documentation (a specification) as described in [RFC5226] and to

verify that the document is permanently and publicly available. The

DE is also expected to check the clarity of purpose and use of the

requested code points. Last, the DE must verify that any

specification produced in the IETF that requests one of these code

points has been made available for review by the IDR working group

and that any specification produced outside the IETF does not

conflict with work that is active or already published within the

IETF.
