Hi All,

An update to the BGP Neighbor Discovery draft has been posted with the following key changes:

1) Added Applicability & Requirements sections in the draft to provide context and clarity on its objectives.

2) Updates to the Neighbor TLV and Adjacency FSM for more clarity and details based on the feedback received at the last IETF.

3) Improved scalability aspects by not requiring TLVs to be exchanged in periodic hellos.

4) Other editorial changes and explanation for procedures and interactions with base BGP protocol machinery.

Would appreciate review and feedback from the WG.

Thanks,
Ketan

Abstract:
   BGP is being used as the underlay routing protocol in some large-
   scaled data centers (DCs).  Most popular design followed is to do
   hop-by-hop external BGP (EBGP) session configurations between
   neighboring routers on a per link basis.  The provisioning of BGP
   neighbors in routers across such a DC brings its own operational
   complexity.

   This document introduces a BGP neighbor discovery mechanism that
   greatly simplifies BGP operations in such DC and other networks by
   automatic setup of BGP sessions between neighbor routers using this
   mechanism.
