Received changes through RFC Editor sync (created alias RFC 8690, changed title to 'Clarification of Segment ID Sub-TLV Length for RFC 8287', changed abstract to 'RFC 8287 defines the extensions to perform LSP Ping and Traceroute for Segment Routing IGP-Prefix and IGP-Adjacency Segment Identifiers (SIDs) with the MPLS data plane. RFC 8287 proposes three Target Forwarding Equivalence Class (FEC) Stack sub-TLVs. While RFC 8287 defines the format and procedure to handle those sub-TLVs, it does not sufficiently clarify how the length of the Segment ID sub-TLVs should be computed to be included in the Length field of the sub-TLVs. This ambiguity has resulted in interoperability issues.

This document updates RFC 8287 by clarifying the length of each of the Segment ID sub-TLVs defined in RFC 8287.', changed pages to 7, changed standardization level to Proposed Standard, changed state to RFC, added RFC published event at 2019-12-11, changed IESG state to RFC Published, created updates relation between draft-ietf-mpls-rfc8287-len-clarification and RFC 8287)
