      <t>
  The Dynamic Link Exchange Protocol (DLEP) is defined in <xref
  target="RFC8175"/>. target="RFC8175" format="default"/>.
  It provides the exchange of link
  related link-related control information between DLEP peers.  DLEP peers are
  comprised of a modem and a router. DLEP defines a base set of
  mechanisms as well as support for possible extensions.  This
  document defines one such extension.
</t>
      <t>
   The base DLEP specification includes the Latency metric Data Item, which
   provides a single single, implementation-dependent latency value on a link, which is implementation dependent.
   link.  This document adds the ability to relay
  the minimum and maximum latency range seen on a link.  The extension
  defined in this document is referred to as "Latency Range".
</t>
      <t>
  This document defines a new DLEP Extension Type Value in <xref
  target="sec-ext-type"/> which that is used to
  indicate the use of the
  extension, and one extension; see <xref target="sec-ext-type"
  format="default"/>. A new DLEP Data Item is defined in <xref
  target="sec-data-items"/>.

      <t>
   The use of the Latency Range Extension SHOULD <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be configurable.  To
   indicate that the Latency Range Extension is to be used, an
   implementation MUST <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> include the Latency Range Extension Type Value in
   the Extensions Supported Data Item. The Extensions Supported Data
   Item is sent and processed according to <xref target="RFC8175"/>. target="RFC8175" format="default"/>.
</t>
      <t>
  Note: the The usage of the extension defined in this document does not
  impact processing associated with the Latency Data Item defined in
  <xref target="RFC8175"/>. target="RFC8175" format="default"/>.

      <t>
  The Latency Range Extension Type Value is TBA1, 4; see <xref

      <t>
  The Latency Range Data Item serves much the same purpose as the
  Latency Data Item defined in <xref target="RFC8175"/> target="RFC8175" format="default"/> with
  the addition of being able to communicate the latency range that can
  be experienced by traffic on a link.  The Latency Range Data Item
  MUST
  <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be included in the Session Initialization Response Message, with
  default values to be used on a session-wide basis.
  The Latency Range Data Item also MAY <bcp14>MAY</bcp14> be
  carried in any message where the Latency Data Item [RFC8175] <xref target="RFC8175" format="default"/> is
  allowed and is carried as an additional data item.  When present, the
  Latency Range Data Item MUST <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be processed according to the same rules
  as the Latency Data Item defined in <xref target="RFC8175"/>. target="RFC8175" format="default"/>.

  The format of the Latency Range Data Item is:
