Hello Acee,

I disagree.
To support my claim, I would like to draw your attention to Figure 1a.
"Network Map Components". Kindly refer to the first pair of figures located
at the top depicting the
network map on the left and the directed graph on the right for physical
point-to-point networks.

You will clearly notice the presence of an edge from each router to the
opposite router's interface in the directed graph. [ RT1 to  Ib     and
RT2   to  Ia]

The explanation provided for point-to-point networks on Page [14] explains
this. It reads,

        The top of Figure 1a shows two routers connected by a point-to-
        point link. In the resulting link-state database graph, the two
        router vertices are directly connected by a pair of edges, one
        in each direction. Interfaces to point-to-point networks need
        not be assigned IP addresses.  *When interface addresses are
        assigned, they are modelled as stub links, with each router
        advertising a stub connection to the other router's interface
        address.* Optionally, an IP subnet can be assigned to the point-
        to-point network. In this case, both routers advertise a stub
        link to the IP subnet, instead of advertising each others' IP
        interface addresses.


Thanks
