Hi, 

Two comments... 

1. Would it be possible to clarify the behavior if the scope is
  set to some value other than 01? Is it a requirement that the
  scope be ignored in that case, that TE information be allowed
  to be flooded out of the area, or that the LSA is rejected? 

  Given the setting of the U-bit, this may be hard to control
  properly and I suspect the best you can do is say MUST
  be transmitted as 01 and SHOULD only be flooded within
  the area. 

2. Section 4 - Router IPv6 Address TLV 

  "The Router IPv6 Address TLV has type 3, length 16, and a value
   containing a 16 octet local IPv6 address.  It MUST appear in exactly
   one Traffic Engineering LSA originated by an OSPFv3 router supporting
   the TE extensions." 

  I am confused by 'MUST appear in exactly one'.
  Can a router advertise multiple Router addresses? (Hint, please talk to
  the CCAMP ASON Routing design team for a very good reason why the answer
  is "yes".)
  Can a TE LSA contain "orphaned" TLVs? I.e. can we have a continuation TE
  LSA that does not carry a Router Address TLV?
  Given that a router has (probably) more than one "stable IPv6 address
  that is always reachable if there is connectivity to the OSPFv3 router"
  must all of these be advertised in Router Address TLVs? 

  The text needs to cover all of these questions. 

Cheers,
Adrian

This was already done in a major implementation. I think it was a good idea.

You have to be careful though as this might break some implementation who
access the body of the lsa on flushing ( though I don't see why they 
would do that).

I'm for it and can collaborate. This can initiate a discussion on the list.

Padma,

How does one address the issues of summary and external
LSAs where the LSID "may" change depending upon Appendix
E of RFC2328.  In those cases, isn't including the subnet
mask needed?  Otherwise, an incorrect LSA could be flushed.

But that major implementation had to revert to sending the entire
LSA (header + body) because another major implementation did not
like it :).

Have gone thru enought pain on this subject and would prefer not
having to do yet another revision. As far as efficiency and memory
is concerned, I wouldn't worry too much about it for this particular
case.

The tuple of originating router, LSA ID, and LSA type *always* uniquely 
and completely identifies an LSA, by definition.

There can never be any ambiguity about which LSA is being flushed, even 
when only the header is sent.  The only way this could even 
conceptually be an issue is if an implementation thought it could send 
two different external routes with the same LSA ID but different masks, 
but this is not allowed (I seem to recall that there was evidence that 
some misguided implementation attempted such a thing recently.)

I wrote the Juniper implementation this way back in '97 and things 
worked swimmingly until a broken implementation came along that tried 
to access the contents of the LSA before noticing that it was being 
flushed, and did something bad (like crashed.)  I don't recall offhand 
how this was resolved, though I'm sure I resisted changing our 
implementation.

I guess this explains how it was resolved.  Obviously my resistance was 
futile.  ;-)

Of course a certain other Link State Protocol has always specified that 
this is what you should do i.e. send only the header, (not that all 
implementations follow the spec in this regard:-)

I guess I'd have to agree with this. There would have to be some WG 
momentum and we'd
need to address the backward compatibility issues given that we know 
there are deployed
implementations that have problems with the header-only LSA flush.

BTW, I previously worked on a less-deployed (avoiding the adjective 
"minor") implementation
that accepted header-only LSA flushes but would not send them :^)

Thanks,
Acee

Yes, and a certain implementor who had previously implemented the 
certain Link State Protocol took this to heart when implementing the 
uncertain Link State Protocol.  ;-)

This version of the draft attempts to satisfy Adrian Farrel's comments as
well as including an LSA definition for OSPFv3. At this point, I'd like
to re-last call it.

All comments should be sent to this list by 12 AM (EDT), 06/24/2005.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

There is (at least) one typo in the IANA considerations that I will
fix prior to queueing the document for IESG review. 

Thanks,

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Open Shortest Path First IGP Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: OSPFv3 Graceful Restart
	Author(s)	: P. Pillay-Esnault, A. Lindem
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ospf-ospfv3-graceful-restart-01.txt
	Pages		: 11
	Date		: 2005-6-15
	
This memo describes the OSPFv3 graceful restart.  For OSPFv3,
   graceful restart is identical to OSPFv2 except for the differences
   described in this memo.  These differences include the format of the
   grace Link State advertisements (LSA) and other considerations.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt


Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ospf-ospfv3-graceful-restart-01.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the

Agreed. I'll add this in the 05 revision.

The standby interfaces must be advertised so that other routers on the 
network can install
equal cost multi-path routes. I guess 3.4.3.1 should reference the 
exception.

I think repeating each NBR(of active interface on link) in standy interface description is redundant, though it preserves the current Router-LSA format.

Hi Vivek,
Offhand, I can't think of a better encoding and doubt any other encoding

backward compatible.

Other implementations are possible. As you know, the OSPFv3 intra-area SPF
calculation is done in 2 phases. First a Shortest Path Tree (SPT) is 
built from the
router and network LSAs. In the second phase, the intra-area-prefix-LSAs 
are
examined and routes are added to the routing table for reachable 
prefixes based
on whether the reference LSA is reachable (among other checks). So, one 
either
needs to lookup the route to the corresponding node in the SPT or the 
reference
LSA. RFC 2740 chose the former and I think it is more straight forward.

Thanks,
Acee

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Open Shortest Path First IGP Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: IANA Considerations for OSPF
	Author(s)	: K. Kompella
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ospf-iana-01.txt
	Pages		: 15
	Date		: 2005-6-24
	
This memo creates a number of OSPF registries and provides guidance
   to IANA for assignment of code points within these registries.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ospf-iana-01.txt

To remove yourself from the I-D Announcement list, send a message to 
i-d-announce-request@ietf.org with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message.  
You can also visit https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/I-D-announce 
to change your subscription settings.


Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
	"get draft-ietf-ospf-iana-01.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt


Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ospf-iana-01.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Hi Vivek,
As specified in section 16.1 of RFC 2328, optimizations are possible as 
long as the
same SPF (Shortest Path Tree) is produced. It would be possible to 
specify an
incremental calculation for intra-area-prefix-LSAs but since it hasn't 
been specified
heretofore and implementations are free to implement one without 
specification, I'm
not going to add it in this RFC 2740 re-spin. Note that there are a 
number of issues
that would need to be covered (alternate routes, forwarding addresses, 
changes in
VL endpoints, etc).

Thanks,
Acee

Subject: Two queries on calculating AS external routes
To: OSPF@PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM
Precedence: list

Hi all,

I've got a couple of queries on Section 16.4 of RFC2328 that I hope someone
can help me with.

1)
When determining that preferred routing table entry for the ASBR in step
(4), what happens if we end up with two equal-cost intra-area routes (for
the same area) to the ASBR (this is after all the pruning from 16.4.1 etc) ?
 Will both routes be installed in the routing table ?

2)

Looking at step (6) now.  If we have two, and only two, paths to a
destination N, with the following characteristics: 
 - same route-type (say, Type 2 external) 
 - same type-2 metric
 - both are intra-area routes but for different non-backbone areas ( so we
still end up with 2 paths after 16.4.1)
 - the intra-area distance to the ASBR is the same for both paths
Will both paths be installed in the routing table ?  If so, would that not
contradict section 16.8, which states that all equal-cost paths for a route
should be associated with the same area ?

All responses appreciated.

Cheers,
Paresh Khatri

For equal cost paths to an ASBR, the path through the area with the 
highest ID should be
chosen (refer to 16.4 (3)).

Hope this helps,

Thanks Acee,

Looking back at my second query, I realise that I wasn't quite clear on wha=
t=
 I was getting at (my apologies).  It should be phrased as such:

2)
Looking at step (6) now.  If we have two, and only two, paths to a
destination N, with the following characteristics:=20
 - same route-type (say, Type 2 external)=20
 - same type-2 metric
 - originated by two different ASBRs and the ASBRs are in different =
non-backbone areas.
 - the intra-area distance to the ASBR is the same for both paths (but of =
course, through a
   different area in each case)
Will both paths be installed in the routing table =3F  If so, would that not
contradict section 16.8, which states that all equal-cost paths for a route
should be associated with the same area =3F

Would 16.4 (3) apply in this case or is it only applicable when you have =
multiple paths to the *same* ASBR =3F

Thanks again,
Paresh.

=46or equal cost paths to an ASBR, the path through the area with the=20
highest ID should be
chosen (refer to 16.4 (3)).

Hi Paresh,

Although not explicitly stated, the intent of the RFC is to have a 
single exit point
from the OSPF routing domain for the AS external route. This was 
clarified in the
latest NSSA RFC with the LSA with the highest router ID given preference 
- see
section 2.5 of RFC 3101.

Hope this helps,
Acee
