This draft is a work item of the Open Shortest Path First IGP Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Extensions to OSPF for Advertising Optional Router Capabilities
	Author(s)	: A. Lindem, et al.

It is useful for routers in an OSPFv2 or OSPFv3 routing domain to
   know the capabilities of their neighbors and other routers in the
   routing domain.  This draft proposes extensions to OSPFv2 and OSPFv3
   for advertising optional router capabilities.  A new Router
   Information (RI) LSA is proposed for this purpose.  In OSPFv2, the RI
   LSA will be implemented with a new opaque LSA type ID.  In OSPFv3,
   the RI LSA will be implemented with a new LSA type function code.  In
   both protocols, the RI LSA can be advertised at any of the defined
   flooding scopes (link, area, or AS).

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
