     set to 0.

   - S-bit

     Set to 1 if the request is for running state data.  Otherwise,
     set to 0.

     not impose any restrictions on the length of the sub-TLVs.

7.1.6. PW-RED Synchronization Data TLV

The "PW-RED Synchronization Data TLV" is used in the "RG Application Data" message. A pair of these TLVs is used by a device to delimit a set of TLVs that are sent in response to a "PW-RED Synchronization Request TLV". The delimiting TLVs signal the start and end of the synchronization data and associate the response with its corresponding request via the "Request Number" field.
Top   ToC   RFC7275 - Page 47
   The "PW-RED Synchronization Data TLVs" are also used for unsolicited
   advertisements of complete PW-RED configuration and operational state
   data.  In this case, the "Request Number" field MUST be set to 0.

   This TLV has the following format:
