Speaking as WG member and updating subject:

Hi Aijun,

We’re not going to add stub links back into Router-LSAs under any circumstance 
since that was an advantage of OSPFv3 over OSPFv2 (refer to section 2.8 of RFC 
5340). Additionally, we’re going to be careful as to what information we put 
into the topological LSAs.

With respect to your specific use case, you haven’t disclosed it other than 
you’re making some loose inference based on an interface being a passive 
interface  (which isn’t a standardized IGP concept). Rather, you should 
precisely design your use case and then we can talk about a solution.

Thanks,
Acee

Subject: RE: [Lsr] IETF I09 LSR Meeting Minutes(Responses for comments on 
"passive interface attribute" draft)

HI, Acee:

Thanks for the minutes, and also thanks for Yingzhen.

Below are the responses for the comments regarding to 
draft-wang-lsr-passive-interface-attribute-06<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-wang-lsr-passive-interface-attribute-06>,
 please see whether they address your concern or not.
For simplicity, I just summary the key points of the comments.
【Chris】: Why not using the existed TLV to solve the Inter-as use case?
【Reply-from Aijun Wang】: For inter-AS use case, using the existed TLV has the 
constraints that described in 
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/lsr/VLufuaGDiRgaflcu58FY_SHnJ7A/

【Chris】: Why not using prefix attributes to advertise application server’s 
information?
【Reply-from Aijun Wang】: It is possible to advertise these information together 
with prefix. But when we want to describe the resources(for example, link 
bandwidth, link utilization ratio etc.) to the prefix, it is more reasonable to 
associated them to link attributes.

On summary, considering the above two use case has the common characteristic, 
that is, the associated link is stub-link, we think that defines the stub-link 
TLV to contain the these information  is more extensible.

【Acee】: Why not just advertise the link is the inter-AS boundary or other , and 
doesn’t need to infer this conclusion?
【Reply-from Aijun Wang】: If necessary, we can add one flag field to indicate 
clearly the sub-type of the stub-link. But currently, they are all 
passive-interface, has no other distinguished differences.
The usage of such information, or the inferences method, may be different in 
different scenario. I think the standardization work should defines the 
fundamental common parts.
