Title : OSPF LSA sequence number generation

Abstract:
The mechanism for LS sequence number generation as specified in RFC
2328 and RFC 5340 is completely predictable. This makes it prone to
certain security attacks which exploit the predictable nature of LS
sequence numbers. This draft updates the RFC 2328 to make LS
sequence number generation an implementation choice rather than a
fixed increment by 1 for successive LSAs.
