The two predominant circuit types used by link state routing
protocols are point-to-point and broadcast.  It is important to
identify the correct circuit type when forming adjacencies,
flooding link state database packets, and representing the circuit
topologically.  This document describes a simple mechanism to treat
the broadcast network as a point-to-point connection from the
standpoint of IP routing.  This memo provides information for the 
Internet community.
