Yes. You are right.

This is a problem specific to BDR taking over the role of DR.
The problem you describe has been around for a while and I have seen people 
using
decent workarounds without requiring protocol changes to solve this problem.

Hi Shraddha,



For planned link maintenance there still could be traffic disruption. Even if 
router with overloaded link is detached from broadcast link, the latter still 
could be used by other routers on this one. If router with overloaded link was 
DR, traffic between other routers on broadcast link could be disrupted. Am I 
correct?

Hi Alexander,

The objective of this draft is to re-route the traffic from the link that is 
expected to undergo maintenance
And the case of broadcast links  is explained in sec 5.2 which achieves the 
objective.

The case you described may be relevant for unplanned link-down events which is 
outside the scope of this draft.

Thanks
Shraddha

Hi authors,

In case when the node that has the link to be overloaded is DR (for
broadcast/NBMA link case), taking this link out of service could be
disruptive. What if to modify procedure in such manner that when BDR
receives Link-Overload-sub-TLV from DR, it generates Network LSA in
advance, before taking DR role. The node with overloading link then
waits some time (for example, 3 secs) and changes its interface priority
to 0.

Thank you.
