KT> These aspects are covered in the introduction section - the last
paragraph and bullet list thereafter. They are not a section in this
document since these aspects are outside the scope of this document. There
are no backward compatibility considerations since this information is
not used for OSPF protocol operations. The configuration of the per member
link attributes may not be even under an OSPF model. Some of them like
link bandwidth may be obtained from the interface model. AFAIR there has
been no requirement or discussion for their inclusion in the IGP models in
the WG even during similar work in ISIS.

reached out and so we'll wait for feedback on this one.
