[Lsr] 答复: 答复: Option B from "Migration between normal flooding and flooding reduction"

Hi, Peter:

Under the current mechanism, only all the candidate area leaders stop advertise this sub-TLV, then the network will be back to normal flooding?
Is it more efficient that only one area leader indicates(according to the command from NMS) explicitly then the network will be back to normal flooding?

For the number of candidate area leaders, I support we should have more than one for consideration of redundancy.

no timer needed, all event driven. Area Leader sub-TLV is removed from the LSP.

thanks,

Not that I am advocating it nor see need for complex migration procedures, but just would like to better understand the "resign" part.
