These administrative groups have initially been defined as a fixed- length 32-bit bitmask. As networks grew and more use-cases were introduced, the 32-bit length was found to be constraining and hence extended administrative groups were introduced in the link state protocols. The 32-bit administrative groups are already advertised as link attributes in BGP-LS. This document introduces extensions to BGP-LS (Border Gateway Protocol Link-State) for advertisement of the extended administrative groups.}, }
