All, A new internet draft is posted which provides a mechanism to contain flooding information for link state protocols for specific topologies.
Kindly review and provide your suggestions.

Name: draft-hegde-rtgwg-virtual-multi-instance Revision: 00 Title: Virtual multi-instancing for link state protocols Document date: 2015-06-30 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 15 URL: https://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-hegde-rtgwg-virtual-multi-instance-00.txt Status: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-hegde-rtgwg-virtual-multi-instance/ Htmlized: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-hegde-rtgwg-virtual-multi-instance-00 Abstract: In networks with routers of different capabilities, some routers may not be able to participate fully in supporting new features or handling large databases and the associated flooding. In some cases, these restrictions can cause severe scalability issues for the network in general. This document proposes virtual multi-instances, a generic mechanism for OSPF and IS-IS, that allows groups of routers in specific topologies to have a reduced database and reduces the topology changes that are seen. The virtual multi-instances are specified so that no software or protocol changes are required in the restricted routers. Due to the potential number of virtual multi- instances in a network, the configuration is limited and is not specified per virtual instance. Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
