A transit-only network is defined as a network connecting routers
only. In OSPF, transit-only networks are usually configured with
routable IP addresses, which are advertised in LSAs but not needed
for data traffic. In addition, remote attacks can be launched
against routers by sending packets to these transit-only networks.
This document presents a mechanism to hide transit-only networks to
speed up network convergence and minimize remote attack
vulnerability.
