This document defines a new OSPF Router Information (RI) TLV that
allows OSPF routers to flood their hostname-to-Router-ID mapping
information across an OSPF network to provide a simple and dynamic
mechanism for routers running OSPF to learn about symbolic hostnames,
just like for routers running IS-IS.  This mechanism is applicable to
both OSPFv2 and OSPFv3.  [STANDARDS TRACK]
