Hello Naveen,
very detailed and interesting; my 2 cents:
- Multipoint - point - 2 - multimpoint: 'When LSAs from a DRother is sent to
all others by the DR, the next hop IS modified': there is no DR for this
network type
- Multipoint - Point-2-Multipoint non-broadcast: I think neighbor statement
is necessary in this case
Thanks,
Luca.
