You need to be able to distinguish local area convergence from hierarchical
domain wide churn. No BGP will not be affected at all neither in the local
area nor in any other area.

In Option-2 I suggested it does exist.

No. What you have envisioned would be a pretty ugly design. In Option-3 I
proposed ABR will just have 2 sessions to area-0/level-2 RRs (current or
new).

Well there is at least one registration mechanism today with BGP where PE
registers with RRs on what is interesting for it. Check  out RFC4684.

Encapsulation does not require tunnel setup. Hint: MPLS over UDP. Show me
please where is the "tunnel" ?


[WAJ] Using the backup tunnel until the primary node is brought up again.

Thx,
