Acee has it right. While (of course) stuff can be done in implementations to mitigate the effects, the protocol extensions here increase the size of LSA and increase the amount of flooding. Since the LSAs have to be stored (in some form), it is reasonable to describe the amount of extra information that reflects across a network - maybe express it as "LSA data" and leave it up to an implementation to choose how to store it. Since the number of LSA updates impacts the routing plane processing and bits on the wire, it is reasonable to ask what impact that might have. I am interested to hear whether turning Reflectors on and off could be a feature that could cause LSAs to flap and so create flooding ripples in the network.

I have a minor comment on a minor issue that you raised. Minor Issues: I should like to see some small amount of text on the scaling impact on OSPF. 1. How much additional information will implementations have to store per node/link in the network? 2. What is the expected churn in LSAs introduced by this mechanism (especially when the Reflector is turned on and off)? Isnt this implementation specific? This is what will differentiate one vendor implementation from the other. I am not sure how we can quantify this -- any ideas? This is akin to saying that IS-IS, in contrast to OSPFv2, is more attuned for partial SPF runs because the node information is cleanly separated from the reachability information. However, this isnt entirely true. While i concede that node information is mixed with prefix information in OSPFv2, there still are ways in which clever implementations could separate the two and do exactly what IS-IS does. I took this rather circuitous approach to drive home the point that scalability, churn, overheads on the system are in many cases dependent on the protocol implementation and by that token outside the scope of the IETF drafts. I believe what is being requested is a discussion of how often the S-BFD TLV is likely to change, the effects on flooding, and, if required, recommendations for any rate-limiting or other measures to prevent churn. Thanks, Acee You *do* have... A change in information in the S-BFD Discriminator TLV MUST NOT trigger any SPF computation at a receiving router. ...which is a help. I would be alarmed if an implementation in an absence of this pedantic note triggered SPF runs each time an S-BFD disc changed ! I mean if you understand the idea being discussed then you also understand that a change in this TLV has no bearing on the reachability anywhere. And that knowledge should be enough to prevent SPF runs in most cases ! I know that we have added this note but if we need to explicitly spell such things out in all standards then we clearly have bigger problems ! :-) Cheers, Manav
