draft-gong-lsr-ospf-unreachable-link(02/23/24 - 03/08/24)
I support WG adoption of this draft.
Being able to advertise a link that is not used in the base SPF is a useful
functionality to have.
I do think that the language currently used in the draft could be improved.
Currently the draft says:
“there are requirements to advertise unreachable
links in OSPF for purposes other than building the normal Shortest
Path Tree.”
The term “unreachable link” is a misnomer. If the link were truly unreachable
it couldn’t be used for any purpose.
I would suggest the language be changed to more closely mimic RFC 5305:
“If a link is advertised with the maximum link metric (2^24 - 1), this
link MUST NOT be considered during the normal SPF computation. This
will allow advertisement of a link for purposes other than building
the normal Shortest Path Tree.”
“MUST NOT be considered” is a much more accurate description than “unreachable”.
I leave it to the authors to decide how best to revise the draft language.
Les
