Hi Acee,
quote From section (5):
"In this manner, OSPFv3 routers using new encodings can be
completely isolated from those OSPFv3 routers depending on the RFC
5340 encoding and not setting their options field EL-bits since the
default setting indicates no support for extended LSAs."
Even though you prevent adjacency to be formed between routers with
certain compatibility modes, it still does not prevent all modes to
coexist in the area/network.
Let's imagine you have a chain of routers with following modes:
Full---MixedModeOriginateSPF----MixedModeOriginateOnly-----None
thanks,
Peter

All,
This version has been reorganized to separate the definitions of the TLVs
and sub-TLVs from the Extended LSAs (Alan Davey's suggestion).
It also includes the changes to the compatibility section discussed during
the OSPF WG meeting in London (David Lamparter's input).
Thanks,
Acee

Abstract:
OSPFv3 requires functional extension beyond what can readily be done
with the fixed-format Link State Advertisement (LSA) as described in
RFC 5340. Without LSA extension, attributes associated with OSPFv3
links and advertised IPv6 prefixes must be advertised in separate
LSAs and correlated to the fixed-format LSAs. This document extends
the LSA format by encoding the existing OSPFv3 LSA information in
Type-Length-Value (TLV) tuples and allowing advertisement of
additional information with additional TLVs. Backward compatibility
mechanisms are also described.
Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of
submission
until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
