Hi Paresh, Ajay,

There is one exception, in the implementation the section 2.1 "Active 
Backbone Connection"
definition is relaxed from a full neighbor (RFC3509) to any neighbor in
state >= INIT (implementation).

Hope this helps,
Acee
P.S. You can E-mail me privately if you have further questions.
