I would be interested in knowing if operators use the cryptographic authentication for detecting the errors that i just described above.
Additionally, one might venture to understand the effects of such mechanisms and why knob's such as IS-IS's "ignore-lsp-errors" were added ~15 years ago. LSP corruption storms driven by receivers that purge corrupted LSPs and originators that re-originate and flood on receipt of said purged LSPs are very problematic and otherwise difficult to identify in practice. Coincidentally, it's also why logging LSPs that trigger such errors is important, whether you ignore them or propagate them. -danny
