The IESG has approved the following document: - 'OSPF Hybrid Broadcast and P2MP Interface Type' (draft-ietf-ospf-hybrid-bcast-and-p2mp-06.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Open Shortest Path First IGP Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Stewart Bryant and Adrian Farrel. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ospf-hybrid-bcast-and-p2mp/ Technical Summary This draft extends OSPFv2 with an additional interface type that has the property of supporting the adjacency reduction and flooding optimizations of broadcast networks while still allowing separate costs to be specified for each neighbor. Working Group Summary The only discussion worth noting was was how this document was positioned against the previously published MANET documents. We agreed that the MANET mechanisms could be used to accomplish the same goal but that the simplicity of this draft warrents standardization by the working group. Document Quality The document has gone through several WG review cycles and revisions. There is at least one implementation of the initial revision. Personnel Acee Lindem is the document shepherd and Stewart Bryant is the responsible AD. RFC Editor Note OLD 4.5. Generating Network LSAs Since a hybrid-broadcast-and-p2mp interface is described in router LSAs using a collection of point-to-point links, the DR SHOULD NOT generate a network LSA for the interface. NEW 4.5. Generating Network LSAs Since a hybrid-broadcast-and-p2mp interface is described in router LSAs using a collection of point-to-point links, the DR MUST NOT generate a network LSA for the interface.
