All,

What would be the implications of stating that all non-DR routers
on a multi-access network list the DR, and the DR should list the
BDR.  Of course, what happens when only one router is DR-eligible?

If we went with the scheme below, I assume we would then re-adver-
tise the TE LSA when the # of other routers reaches 1 or 0?
