Aijun, *> or lose the fast convergences*
Putting aside all the drawbacks already discussed, what makes you think that flooding LSPs or LSAs across tens of hops over 2 or maybe soon 8 areas would be any faster then sending BGP UPDATE message(s) across 2-3 RRs ? Assume you need to detect the failure and react to it in your RP/RE regardless how it is signalled. If triggered by ABRs you not only need to detect the failure of a node, but also flood it locally within the local area. Light propagation speed last time I checked does not seems to be different for BGP vs OSPF/ISIS packets. Thx, R.
