Hi Acee,



Thank you for sharing your idea about the draft. Because of the time limitation in the meeting, Let‘s continue here.





 


1. First, About your doubts about the existence of the problem, I would like to check whether I have elaborated it clearly through the following email and the presentation.





    It is a real problem we39ve actually seen and can be reproduced easily, you can actually try it out. 





2. About your proposed solution, we would like to share our comments. 





    (1) Your solution does not work for other type of lsa except router-lsa. The blackhole still occurs for other type route.





        For example, Router B  has received the re-originated router lsa of router A, and router A&B both get into the full state. Now A is reachable through spf tree calculation.


        As a result, the external route is also reachable, since the type 5 lsa has not been re-originated. 





    (2) Your solution can be classified into the solution 2) mentioned in our presentation and more complicated.  


          It is a larger modification to the basic ospf protocol, equivalent to abandon the action of DD exchange. It will cause more risk and pressure for all the routers in the network.





Hope to get your opinion, Thanks.





Best Regards,


Liyan

Yes,it is a real problem we39ve actually seen. 



Especially when the neighbor Rouer B has many more LSAs than the Restart Router A.



In this scenario, the time between the following two key points will be prolonged greatly.



Further discussion is welcome, thanks a lot.



Best Regards,

Liyan

I’m wondering if you’ve actually seen this situation or it is hypothetical. In any case, I have a better solution which wouldn’t add the delay for the next hello packet without the SA flag to be received before advertising the link. I’m busy with some other things right now and want to think about it more.For now, we will add your presentation to the list for IETF 116.Thanks,Acee   > On Mar 7, 2023, at 3:54 AM, Liyan Gong  wrote:> > > Hi Les and Acee,> > Let me explain it further through the following diagram.> > 1) The neighbor relationship between Router A and Router B is stable.
