Perhaps I'm forgetting something... Doesn't OSPF have a "glass
ceiling"..
Kind of like the current mboned issue's ?
Routes, * states, * interfaces | macs, * changes...... != scalable...
Perhaps I am wrong..... Anyone care to clarify ?
Or, should we limit our scope of the term "scalable"...
In which case, OSPF is dynamite.....
Just a thought... or warning...
