Re: [OSPF] FW: New Version Notification for draft-ietf-ospf-ospfv3-lsa-extend-02.txt

Hi Acee,

quote From section (5):

    "In this manner, OSPFv3 routers using new encodings can be
    completely isolated from those OSPFv3 routers depending on the RFC
    5340 encoding and not setting their options field EL-bits since the
    default setting indicates no support for extended LSAs."

Even though you prevent adjacency to be formed between routers with 
certain compatibility modes, it still does not prevent all modes to 
coexist in the area/network.

Let's imagine you have a chain of routers with following modes:

Full---MixedModeOriginateSPF----MixedModeOriginateOnly-----None

thanks,
Peter
