This version includes a change to allow differing hello/dead intervals for auto-configured routers. This was based on input in the Homenet WG and interoperability testing between auto-configured implementations.
3. OSPFv3 HelloInterval/RouterDeadInterval Flexibility Auto-configured OSPFv3 routers will not require an identical HelloInterval and RouterDeadInterval to form adjacencies. Rather, the received HelloInterval will be ignored and the received RouterDeadInterval will be used to determine OSPFv3 liveliness with the sending router. In other words, the Inactivity Timer for each neighbor will reflect that neighbor's advertised RouterDeadInterval and MAY be different from other OSPFv3 routers on the link without impacting adjacency formation. A similar mechanism requiring additional signaling is proposed for all OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 routers [ASYNC-HELLO]. I also put MANET requirements out of scope. Auto-configured operation over wireless networks requiring a point-to-multipoint (P2MP) topology and dynamic metrics based on wireless feedback is not within the scope of this document. However, auto-configuration is not precluded in these environments.
