The following errata report has been submitted for RFC2328, "OSPF Version 2".
-------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata/eid5956 -------------------------------------- Type: Technical Reported by: Marcelo Bustani <mbust...@gmail.com> Section: 12.4.1 Original Text ------------- Router-LSAs If the state of the interface is Loopback, add a Type 3 link (stub network) as long as this is not an interface to an unnumbered point-to-point network. The Link ID should be set to the IP interface address, the Link Data set to the mask 0xffffffff (indicating a host route), and the cost set to 0. =================================== 12.4.1.4. Describing Point-to-MultiPoint interfaces For operational Point-to-MultiPoint interfaces, one or more link descriptions are added to the router-LSA as follows: o A single Type 3 link (stub network) is added with Link ID set to the router's own IP interface address, Link Data set to the mask 0xffffffff (indicating a host route), and cost set to 0. ============================================================================= C.3 Router interface parameters Interface output cost The cost of sending a packet on the interface, expressed in the link state metric. This is advertised as the link cost for this interface in the router's router-LSA. The interface output cost must always be greater than 0. Corrected Text -------------- "cost set to 0" to at least "greater than 0" Notes ----- The section 12.4.1 and 12.4.1.4 are inconsistent with the appendix c.3. These both section we find the cost to stub networks have to be set to 0, but in appendix c.3 we see that the interfaces must have greater than 0. Instructions: ------------- This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary. -------------------------------------- RFC2328 (no draft string recorded) -------------------------------------- Title : OSPF Version 2 Publication Date : April 1998 Author(s) : J.
