Charlie, I see it this way: What makes a node a router? (mentioned in meeting, maybe incomplete lsit) a) The device MAY forward packets. Even the case if it actually doesn't, e.g. the topology is such that no packet is sent to it for forwarding. Many OSses have a "Forwarding" config flag. When on, it is a router. This has nothing to do with routing protocols. b) The device sends out a routing protocol packet. The intention of the device is arranging topology state, for itself or for neighbors. Hosts may use a passive mode (often used with RIP). There are some corner cases, like management boxes that get topology from OSPF/ISIS or BGP by adjacency with real router. But often, such adjacency leads to topology change and thus the management box is a router. c) The device sends out an RA. Hosts MAY NOT do this. Why is this important? Especially on b): Lets say router with reactive protocol sends RREQs but not RREPs. The router will be part of the topology, but never will receive a packet for forwarding. But still, it is a router. Willingness=0 is example for an proactive protocol. If a host uses tobe-RFC5889 and only uses a /128 prefix, and other nearby nodes also use /128's, there is no connectivity. 1-hop neighbors can't know that the host is reachable. I experienced this problem during maintenance or outage of the routing protocol, I couldn't remotely repair. That is why I use another addressing model, that doesn't has this shortcoming. It supports all types of nodes. A big, big difference. This is why I support the title change. Regards, Teco Op 3 aug 2010, om 19:56 heeft Charles E.
