[WAJ] it is easy for ABR to get these information and make the judgment. All 
ABRs locate within the same area.

[WAJ] We need not care bout the reason for the unreachability. When ABR get the 
PUA information from also all other ABRs, it will start one timer to count the 
duration of following PUA message. After the duration, all ABRs will stop the 
advertisement.
