[WAJ] The PUA/PULSE message doesn’t trigger the SPF calculation, how can the 
domain wide churn happen?

[WAJ] Recall but still exists? Which vendor has such knob? Please give some 
references

[WAJ]Just image your proposal in the whole picture: should every PE establish 
two BGP sessions with the RR? May the P router should also do so?
And then every PE  router configure it is interested all the loopack addresses 
of other PEs? Maybe all the P routers needs to do so?
Is it efficient than the IGP flooding?

[WAJ] We are discussing tunnel, why the encapsulation jumps in?
