Hello,

Would someone please clarify the recommended order of
the feedback TLVs included in a CR-LDP message as quoted
from section 2 "Adding feedback TLVs to CR-LDP":

"Two new TLVs are optionally added to the CR-LDP mapping,
notification, and withdraw messages. There may be an arbitrary
number of these TLV in any order or position in the message. 
It is recommended that they be placed such that they can be 
read and applied to override the topology database by scanning
the message forwards and walking the topology database from 
the point where the last link feedback TLV left off."

Specifically, what does the phrase "where the last link 
feedback TLV left off" mean ?

Thanks,
Khanh
