A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 5309 Title: Point-to-Point Operation over LAN in Link State Routing Protocols Author: N. Shen, Ed., A. Zinin, Ed. Status: Informational Date: October 2008 Mailbox: naiming@cisco.com, alex.zinin@alcatel-lucent.com Pages: 10 Characters: 21287 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-isis-igp-p2p-over-lan-06.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5309.txt 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.
