Administrative Group" IGP TE extensions sub-TLV defined in [RFC7308] Administrative Group" IGP TE extensions sub-TLV defined in [RFC7308]
is introduced to provide for additional administrative groups (link is introduced to provide for additional administrative groups (link
colors) beyond the current limit of 32. This document describes colors) beyond the current limit of 32. This document describes
