At present, an IS-IS purge does not contain any informationidentifying the Intermediate System (IS) that generates the purge.This makes it difficult to locate the source IS. To address thisissue, this document defines a TLV to be added to purges to record thesystem ID of the IS generating it. Since normal Link State ProtocolData Unit (LSP) flooding does not change LSP contents, this TLV shouldpropagate with the purge. This document updates RFC 5301, RFC 5304,and RFC 5310.
