Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   This document defines OSPF extensions to include information
   associated with the node originating a prefix along with the prefix
   advertisement.

Working Group Summary

   There was a drawn-out discussion about a non-normative appendix 
   that talked about a controversial use case. The WG (as well as some 
   of the authors) did not support its inclusion; it was removed.

Document Quality

   This draft is a simple extension that mirrors similar functionality 
   in IS-IS.  It's filling a gap in LSR.
