>Notes
>-----
>The change essentially reverts the paragraph back to the formulation from
>http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ospf-prefix-hiding-05#section-3 .
>Most importantly, the term "router-LSA" is replaced with "link-LSA", as
>there are already no prefixes carried in OSFPv3 router-LSA whatsoever,
>and the removal of transit-network prefixes influences link-LSAs and
>intra-area-prefix-LSAs. Also, the change reintroduces the keyword "MUST"
>that underlines the behavior that is crucial to the proper implementation
>of the feature.
