[Lsr] 答复: Regarding OSPF extension for inter-area topology retrieval

Hi, Peter:

Actually, I consider mainly the point-to-point connection and the numbered
interface, which are normal in our network.
For the two situations that you mentioned, I will investigation the possible
solutions and feedback you later.

For the point-to-point and numbered interface, do you have other questions
then?

Best Regards.

主题: Re: [Lsr] Regarding OSPF extension for inter-area topology retrieval

Hi Aijun,

you are trying to reconstruct the topology of the remote area based on the
fact that two routers are connected to the same subnet. It does not work
because:

1. connections between routers can be unnumbered 2. routers can be connected
via LAN, in which case only DR announces the prefix.

In summary, what you propose does not work.

thanks,
Peter
