Hi Stewart, My apologies for not replying sooner - I have been on vacation with very limited cell/Internet access. The IPR was disclosed each time the draft was presented or covered in the WG document status IETF OSPF WG meetings (starting with Bejing).
Also, it was reiterated during when the WG last call was started. http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ospf/current/msg06292.html Also, it was included in the document shepherd write-up. http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ospf/current/msg06370.html Finally, the patent is referenced in the draft itself in the acknowledgments. 10. Acknowledgments The draft text was produced using Stefan Santesson's NroffEdit application. The idea of using a special subnet mask to hide broadcast networks in OSPF was originally introduced in the US patent "Apparatus and method to hide transit only multi-access networks in OSPF" (patent number: 7,929,524), by Yi Yang, Alvaro Retana, James Ng, Abhay Roy, Alfred Lindem, Sina Mirtorabi, Timothy Gage, and Khalid Raza. The authors would like to thank Acee Lindem, Shraddha Hegde, Rajesh Shetty, Marek Karasek, Michael Barnes, and Paul Wells, for their feedback on the document.
