Subject: [bess] Request for IANA early allocation for 'Service Carving Timestamp' code point

Hello,

I would like to request IANA pre-allocation of an Extended Community for ‘TBD3’ NTP-timestamp in the EVPN DF Fast-Recovery draft:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-bess-evpn-fast-df-recovery-01#section-7

   This document solicits the allocation of the following sub-type in

   the "EVPN Extended Community Sub-Types" registry setup by [RFC7153<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7153>]:

         TBD3     Service Carving Timestamp    This document

https://www.iana.org/assignments/bgp-extended-communities/bgp-extended-communities.xhtml#evpn

While an update is pending on the Handshake portion per received feedback, the NTP portion of the draft is stable and implementations would need a (pre-)allocated value for use over the network.

Regards,
Luc André
