Hi, Tony:
How the receiver judge the leader has stopped advertising the Area Leader
sub-TLV? Do you need some timers?
no timer needed, all event driven. Area Leader sub-TLV is removed from
the LSP.
thanks,
Peter
From the current discussion, I think the explicit instruction that proposed by
Huaimo is more acceptable.

主题: Re: [Lsr] Option B from "Migration between normal flooding and flooding
reduction"
Hi Robert,
The current draft is pretty robust in terms of area leader election. It also says
that "Any node that is capable MAY advertise its eligibility to become Area
Leader”
Correct. This can be all systems. It can be one. For redundancy, a few would
be sensible.
With that can you confirm the procedure to "resign" as area leader ?
Stop advertising the Area Leader sub-TLV. It’s that simple.
Especially that under those circumstances just having active area leader to
resign clearly is not enough to change given flooding scheme.
If there are multiple potential area leaders, then all of them would have to
resign.
In some deployments all eligible nodes may advertise such capability which in turn the
"resign" procedure would require NMS action to disable such capability by configuration
and re-flooding it. Not that I am advocating it nor see need for complex migration procedures, but
just would like to better understand the "resign" part.
Correct, this is rightfully an NMS operation.
Tony
