Hi John,

This question has kept me curious for a while too,

Perhaps the WG could clarify, but the idea does seem valid,

You have to "discover the end points" before you setup the LSPs.

In other words "you have to know the end attachement identifiers" to vector in their direction when setting up LSPs.

the NLRI as far as i understand can be anything, including the attachement identifier.

[of course it could be "names" too ;)]

perhaps others on the list can clarify.

-thanks

Hi,

Can we use this draft to automatically discover VPLS nodes across different
sites?

Regards,
John
