Abstract

This document defines an optional extension to OSPF which enables routers to distribute IP to link-layer address resolution information An OSPF Address Resolution Advertisement (ARA) may include media- specific information such as a multipoint-to-point connection identifier along with the address resolution information to support media-specific functions. The ARA option can be used to support router-to-router inter-subnet shortcut architectures such as those described in [HEIN].
