Hi WG,
RFC 5185 says that Neighbor's IP address to be encoded into Link Data field.
Per RFC 2328 router's own IP address to be encoded into Link Data. What is the
reason to advertise neighbor's IP address for multi-area links and not local IP
address? It seems like bug. Could someone comment on this?
Advertising a neighbor address/ifindex helps to eliminate ambiguity in
case of parallel point-to-point adjacencies. It's not perfect, but
that's how it was specified. So it's not a bug.
thanks,
Peter
