Hi Robert, From: Robert Raszuk <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, November 9, 2022 at 10:37 AM To: Acee Lindem <[email protected]>, lsr <[email protected]> Subject: OSPF-GT
Hi Acee, The point of sparse GT makes it much more attractive. With that I have two questions/suggestions to make it even more useful. #1 Would you consider adding reflection function to spares mode GT ? Within a flooding scope (e.g., area) , reflection is inherent in the flooding algorithm. One thing that applications will need to specify is whether or not information is re-originated outside the flooding scope (e.g., does the ABR re-originate application LSAs into other areas). #2 If you do #1 would you considet pub-sub model ? I wouldn’t change basic OSPF flooding. So, one could support pub-sub but everyone in the OSPF application routing domain would receive a superset of subscribed information (or the application would have to do something unnatural from an OSPF standpoint to limit the neighbors receiving the information, e.g., dynamically assign areas for unique subscriptions). I think other protocols are better suited to pub-sub. Thanks, Acee Then this could be used for lot's of current use cases ... some of them even discussed today :) Thx R
