Hi Les,

     Thank you very much for adding the LEEF bit into the draft based on the FT 
bit for a link. The bit advertised by one end node of the link indicates 
whether the link is on the flooding topology.

Would you mind adding the behavior below for checking and handling the 
inconsistency of the flooding topology through using this bit?

For a link L between node A and node B, if the LEEF bit for link L advertised 
by node A is different from the one advertised by node B, then the flooding 
topology is inconsistent, the node receiving the LEEF bit set to one for link L 
from the other node adds link L on the flooding topology temporarily.

If one of the two nodes receives the LEEF bit set to one for link L from the 
other, but advertises the LEEF bit set to zero for link L for a given time such 
as 5 seconds, then a warning is issued or logged.


Best Regards,

Huaimo

Folks -



Major changes in this version include:



1)Added support for LANs as part of the flooding tropology



2)Added support for advertising what links are enabled for flooding at each 
node. This is based on a proposal in draft-cc-lsr-flooding-reduction (the FT 
bit) but we have defined it to be advertised associated with a link rather than 
in hellos. This is to allow management tools to more easily verify correctness 
of the flooding topology on each node. It does NOT change operational state in 
any way.



3)Added some text around rate limiting temporary flooding when attempting to 
repair a partitioned flooding topology.



    Les
