Unless the port is configured to use some other encapsulation X for all
types of traffic, then a port has to "support" UDP for the low bandwidth of
Hellos and other adjacency establishment PDUs. This is different from
advertising support for UDP which means a willingness to use it for data
traffic and LSPs. This needs to be clarified. Maybe "limited support"
versus "full support".

Thanks,
Donald
