   Gyan> The goal of the solution is to be able to take advantage of
summarizing LPM match using MPLS LDP inter-area LSP extension of VPN
overlay next hop attribute /32 host route so that in larger domains with
1000s of PEs that domain wide flooding of host routes can be eliminated per
RFC 5302 impacts of domain wide flooding. The prefix is the egress PE next
hop attribute for VPN overlay component prefix that becomes unreachable due
to a link or node failure.  All BGP next hop attributes for VPN overlay are
being summarized so LPM summary FEC binding must be used to route the
traffic.  As all the BGP next hop attribute for vpn overlay are summarized
as is the goal to mitigate domain wide host route flooding, the next hop
attribute host routes component prefixes cannot be advertised.  That is the
problem we are trying to solve with PUA signaling of the component prefix
being down using the prefix originator Sub TLV RFC 7794 setting to null0
and flooding using Normal procedures  to force control plane convergence to
alternate egress PE next hop for the LSP to properly re-route.
