Hi,
I am having a doubt on Neighbor State treatment (Section 2.5) of RFC
4811 (OSPF Out-of-Band LSDB Resynchronization)
Below is the extract:
"Any explicit checks for the Full state of a neighbor FSM for
the
purposes other than LSDB synchronization and flooding should
treat states ExStart, Exchange, and Loading as state Full,
provided that OOBResync flag is set for the neighbor. (Flooding
and MaxAge-LSA-specific procedures should not check the state of
the OOBResync flag, but should continue consulting only the FSM
state.)"
In the first sentence it is said that during flooding, the neighbor
state should be treated as Full if OOBResync flag is set and FSM states
in ExStart, Exchange and Loading.
In the second sentence it is mentioned that while flooding, the state of
OOBResync flag should not be checked and FSM state should be taken
irrespective of that.
I see that both the sentences are contradictory.
thanx & regards
ramana
