Hi Aijun,

we have made a similar discussion in the context of the Appendix A of draft-ietf-lsr-ospf-prefix-originator. I have made it very clear that using IP reachability advertisement to derive any topological data is incorrect and broken. Same applies here. I'm not going to change my opinion.

thanks,
Peter

Hi, Acee and Peter:
Passive interface is mainly used at the edge of the network, where the 
unnumbered interface will not be used.
And the information to flag the passive interfaces is for positioning the area 
boundary, not conflict with the abstract capabilities of the area inside.

Speaking as WG member:

Hi Aijun, Peter,
I agree with Peter - one of the main motivations for having areas is to 
abstract the topology within the area. Now you're trying to supplant this  - 
one topological detail at a time with ill-conceived IGP features.
Thanks,
Acee

     if the link is unnumbered, your solution does not work. As I said, if
     you need a knowledge about the link, you can not advertise it as a prefix.

     thanks,
     Peter
