Keyur,

RR (or route server in eBGP case) don't reset the NH so if they are not in the forwarding path, traffic will never go through them anyway (and you don’t want inconsistent connectivity graph just because you happen to run RR on one of the devices in path).
Much more realistic use case would be traffic draining, where, before you go into maintenance, you’d like to divert as much traffic as possible (all transit).

Cheers,
Jeff

You may want RR/Controller to announce its reachability using H-bit so that they are not being used as a transit.

Just to clarify my doubt let's consider a prefix P that is only originated by node N. Now what will be the reachability of prefix P in the two scenarios (first with SPF Status TLV value set to 1 vs with SPF Status TLV value set to 2). Will P be unreachable in both cases? My understanding is it should still be reachable when the value is set to 2.

Optionally, the interface addresses on the current node have also been installed. At this point, we are simply not using any of the links in the SPF graph which will have the effect of preventing transit traffic.

However, for the Node Attribute TLV, the status would have an additional value indicating the node should not be used for transit traffic.

I know the 'O' bit is more related to the scenario when ISIS topology is being exported in BGP-LS. But I suppose we can use that for BGP-LS-SPF as well.
