RFC Editor Note:

 Section 1.1 "Introduction", first paragraph

 OLD:
       An OSPF routing domain can be split into several subdomains, 
	 called areas, which limit the scope of LSA flooding. According 
       to [Ref1] a router having attachments to multiple areas is called 
       an "area border router" (ABR). The primary function of an ABR is 
       to provide its attached areas with Type-3 and Type-4 LSAs (which 
       are used for describing routes and ASBRs in other areas) as well 
       as to perform actual inter-area routing.
