  2. What is RFC3137? • OSPF Stub Router Advertisement • Category: Informational • Publication: June 2001 • Describes a backward-compatible technique that may be used by OSPF to advertise unavailability to forward transit traffic (rfc1247) or to lower the preference level for the paths (rfc1583) through such a router. • Solution: the costs of all non-stub links are set to MaxLinkMetric

  3. Update • Explicitly added support for OSPFv3. • Generalized text to avoid OSPFv2-specific references. • Referenced existing OSPFv3-only solution (R-bit) • Defined a new architectural constant (MaxLinkMetric) to eliminate any confusion about the interpretation of LSInfinity. MaxLinkMetric The metric value indicating that the link described by an LSA should not be used as transit. Used in router-LSAs (see Section 3). It is defined to be the 16-bit binary value of all ones: 0xffff.

  4. Next Steps • Request WGLC and Publication • Category: Informational
