OSPFv3 interfaces MAY use an arbitrary HelloInterval and RouterDeadInterval as specified in Section 3. Hopefully, an easy DISCUSS. >From a management point of view, we must be able to determine if a router or interfaces within a router are OSPF-autoconfigured. If I'm not mistaken, you miss, in the management considerations section, something like this: The OSPFv3 routers MUST flag the interfaces supporting this specification. Background: I recall one particular tool in the past that would check the different router configs and flag the HelloInterval and RouterDeadInterval mismatched values for adjacent routers. This would be equivalent to the following debug: OSPF: Rcv hello from 192.168.0.2 area 0 from FastEthernet0/0 192.168.0.2 OSPF: Mismatched hello parameters from 192.168.0.2 OSPF: Dead R 40 C 60, Hello R 10 C 15 Mask R 255.255.255.252 C 255.255.255.252 In case of OSPF auto-config, this check doesn't make any sense. _______________________________________________ OSPF mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ospf
