Abstract
This document defines a way for an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF)router to advertise multiple types of supported Maximum SID Depths(MSDs) at node and/or link granularity. Such advertisements allowentities (e.g., centralized controllers) to determine whether aparticular Segment Identifier (SID) stack can be supported in a givennetwork. This document only refers to the Signaling MSD as definedin RFC 8491, but it defines an encoding that can support other MSDtypes. Here, the term "OSPF" means both OSPFv2 and OSPFv3.
