Re: [Lsr] https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-wang-lsr-prefix-unreachable-annoucement-05

Hi, Tony:

There are two scenarios as introduced by Gyan: one is the node failure(Scenario 1), and another is the link failure(Scenario 2).

For scenario 1, also when all ABRs can’t reach the specified address, it is not efficient to advertise all of other detail prefixes when only one prefix or some prefixes are missing. The ABRs  tell exactly the specified failure prefixes via PUA message is reasonable.

For scenarios 2, because the specified prefixes can be accessed via another ABR, then we can let this ABR to advertise the details prefixes information for the specified address, which behavior is similar with RIFT, as also mentioned in the presentation materials.
