Then, what’s the differences between the two statements:

first is for case when the prefix reachability is not regained after UPA was generated.

Second is when the prefix reachability was regained before the UPA was withdrawn. It basically says UPA must be  withdrawn at the time the prefix becomes reachable.


“UPA advertisements SHOULD therefore be withdrawn after some amount of time, that would provides sufficient time for UPA to be flooded network-wide and acted upon by receiving nodes, but limits the presence of UPA in the network.”

And:

“ABR or ASBR MUST withdraw the previously advertised UPA when the reason for which the UPA was generated was lost - e.g. prefix reachability was restored or its metric has changed such that it does not represent the protocol specific maximum prefix metric.”

Here, does  “withdraw” just mean to “stop advertisement”?

yes.

If no, what’s the mechanism of second “withdraw”?

    Hi, All:

    I must point out that the updated draft doesn't address previous
    issues that described in [1].

    Especially, the activation of flawed LSInfinity feature(there is
    detail analysis for this flawed feature that is defined in OSPF 2328).

    And, some updated contents will deteriorate the traffic pattern
    within the network.

    For example, It says: “ABR or ASBR MUST withdraw the previously
    advertised UPA when the reason for which the UPA was generated was
    lost”.

    The above requirement will advertise the specific prefixes within
    the network, which will weaken the original summary effect, and
    attract the traffic via one or some of ABRs.

no, above is not true, the new text does not say to advertise reachablity for a summarized prefix, it only talks about removing the previously advertised UPA.

Please read carefully before commenting.

    draft-ietf-lsr-igp-ureach-prefix-announce-06.txt

    Internet-Draft draft-ietf-lsr-igp-ureach-prefix-announce-06.txt is
    now available. It is a work item of the Link State Routing (LSR)
    WG of the IETF.

       Title:   IGP Unreachable Prefix Announcement

    Abstract:

       In the presence of summarization, there is a need to signal loss of

       reachability to an individual prefix covered by the summary.  This

       enables fast convergence by steering traffic away from the node
    which

       owns the prefix and is no longer reachable.

       This document describes how to use the existing protocol mechanisms

       in IS-IS and OSPF, together with the two new flags, to
    advertise such

       prefix reachability loss.
