[OSPF] Regarding Flushing Translated Type-7 LSAs

[keshavaak 70257 <[e-mail]>]

Hi,

while flushing the T7 LSA, 

When the Translator elsection status has beedn deposed by another, 
   Type-5 LSAs that are  generated by aggregating Type-7 LSAs into their 
   best matched Type-7 address ranges  are flushed immideately.
Where as 
   Type-5 LSAs generated by translating Type-7 LSAs are not immediately
   flushed, but are allowed to remain in the OSPF routing domain as if
   the originator is still an elected translator.

why flushing time can be diffrent for 'normal Type-7 Translated' and 'aggregeted Type-7 Translated LSA' ?

Please help us to understand the scenario.


3.3 Flushing Translated Type-7 LSAs

   "If an NSSA border router is translating Type-7 LSA's into Type-5
   LSA's with NSSATranslatorState set to elected and the NSSA border
   router has determined that its translator election status has been
   deposed by another NSSA border router (see Section 3.1), then, as
   soon as the TranslatorStabilityInterval has expired without the
   router reelecting itself as a translator, Type-5 LSAs that are
   generated by aggregating Type-7 LSAs into their best matched Type-7
   address ranges (see Section 3.2, Step (3)) are flushed.  Conversely
   Type-5 LSAs generated by translating Type-7 LSAs are not immediately
   flushed, but are allowed to remain in the OSPF routing domain as if
   the originator is still an elected translator.  This minimizes the
   flushing and flooding impact on the transit topology of an NSSA that
   changes its translators frequently."
