Thanks for responding me. I am glad to see a (in the way) standard for the
Ingress recovery.
Regarding the FRR and Graceful restart I am not sure that the protocol
should not be modified. I'll investigate the issue next week and let you
know. But for sure an informational section should be applied.
Best regards, Nurit.

Hi,

Yes, this will also let the ingress recover the ERO.

Regarding GR + FRR, we currently believe that an informational section
would be sufficient, i.e. no need for protocol extensions.
