Abstract:
   The OSPFv2 specifies an SPF algorithm that identifies transit
   vertices based on their adjacencies.  Therefore, OSPFv2 does not have
   a mechanism to prevent traffic transiting a participating node if it
   is a transit vertex in the only existing or shortest path to the
   destination.  The use of metrics to make the node undesirable can
   only help to repel traffic if an alternative better route exists.
   This document defines the Host-bit functionality to prevent other
   OSPFv2 routers from using the router for transit traffic in OSPFv2
   routing domains.  This document updates the Open Shortest Path First
   v2 specification (OSPFv2 rfc2328) by assigning a new bit (Host-bit)
   in the OSPF Router-LSA bit registry.  In addition, if the Host-bit is
   set, the calculation of the shortest-path tree for an area, as
   described in OSPFv2, is modified by including a new check to verify
   that transit vertices have the Host-bit clear.  In addition, this
   document updates OSPF Stub Router Advertisement (rfc6987) to
   advertise for type-2 External and NSSA LSAs with a high cost in order
   to repel traffic effectively.
