OSPF Topology-Transparent Zone
Abstract
This document presents a Topology-Transparent Zone (TTZ) in an OSPF
area. A TTZ comprises a group of routers and a number of links
connecting these routers. Any router outside of the zone is not
aware of the zone. A TTZ hides the internal topology of the TTZ from
the outside. It does not directly advertise any internal information
about the TTZ to a router outside of the TTZ. The information about
the links and routers such as a link down inside the TTZ is not
advertised to any router outside of the TTZ.
Status of This Memo
