PPE - The router with the H-bit set will not be "on the only feasible
transit path" to other destinations.  The H-bit functionality will exclude
the host router from the path calculation in the SPF.

PPE: OSPF will flood the LSA containing the capability... Perhaps
"advertising" instead of flooding.
See below:

OLD:
The feature, however does introduce the flooding of a capability
   information that allows discovery and verification that all routers
   in an area are capable before turning on the feature.

SUGGESTED NEW:
The feature introduces the advertising of a host router capability
information to all OSPFv2 routers
   in an area. This information can be leveraged for discovery and
verification that all routers in the
area support the capability before the feature is turned on.

Please let me know if this addresses your comment.

Thanks
Padma
