Purge Originator Identification TLV for IS-IS
F. Wei, Y. Qin, Z. Li, Tianlong Li, J. Dong · 2011
At present, an IS-IS purge does not contain any information identifying the Intermediate System (IS) that generates the purge. This makes it difficult to locate the source IS. To address this issue, this document defines a TLV to be added to purges to record the system ID of the IS generating it. Since normal Link State Protocol Data Unit (LSP) flooding does not change LSP contents, this TLV should propagate with the purge.
