The IESG has received a request from the Open Shortest Path First IGP WG (ospf) to consider the following document: - 'Use of OSPF-MDR in Single-Hop Broadcast Networks' <draft-ietf-ospf-manet-single-hop-mdr-03.txt> as Experimental RFC The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2013-06-19. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract RFC 5614 (OSPF-MDR) extends OSPF to support mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) by specifying its operation on the new OSPF interface of type MANET. This document describes the use of OSPF-MDR in a single-hop broadcast network, which is a special case of a MANET in which each router is a (one-hop) neighbor of each other router. Unlike an OSPF broadcast interface, such an interface can have a different cost associated with each neighbor. The document includes configuration recommendations and simplified mechanisms that can be used in single-hop broadcast networks. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ospf-manet-single-hop-mdr/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ospf-manet-single-hop-mdr/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
