Hi, We have some confusion in understanding the Data Plane Capability Flags (B-bit & E-bit) from draft-vasseur-ccamp-te-router-info-00.txt (a) Does E-bit ON implies B-bit ON always ? (assuming ON = set and OFF = unset). (b) E-bit = ON & B-bit = OFF, is it a valid combination. (c) Please tell us the E-bit and B-bit status for a node which is a destination node but does not have branch capability. We are also curious to know (1)The idea behind combing two things (egress status & transit status) in a single E-bit. rather than making use of B-bit(branch) and having E-bit just for egress status. (2) Why the TE Node Capability Descriptor TLV should have E-bit & how it should be used in CSPF path computation.
