Done Update the OSPF NSSA option specified in RFC 1587 and submit to IESG for consideration as a Proposed Standard Done Develop Traffic Engineering extensions for OSPFv2 and submit it to the IESG as a Proposed Standard Done Submit to IESG a document which updates RFC 1793 allowing detection of demand circuit neighbors whose OSPF process has exited. Done Submit to IESG a BCP advocating that OSPF LSA refreshes be spread out over time Done Develop a hitless restart mechanism for OSPF and submit it to the IESG as a Proposed Standard. Done Document Alternative ABR implementations and submit ti IESG as an Informational RFC Done Extend the hitless restart mechanism to OSPFv3 and submit it to the IESG as a Proposed Standard Done Submit to IESG a BCP advocating that OSPF Hellos be given preference over other OSPF control traffic. Done Update OSPFv2 MIB and submit to IESG as a Standard, replacing RFC 1850 Done Specify IPSEC usage with OSPFv3 and submit to IESG for consideration as a Proposed Standard Done Extend OSPF Demand Circuits to detect inactive neighbors and submit to IESG for consideration as a Proposed Standard Done Provide mechanisms to prevent looping in RFC 2547 OSPF networks and submit to IESG for
