Abstract:
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 Link State
Advertisements (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.
This document updates RFC 2328 and RFC 5340.
