Hi,
That was a nice illustration of this principle.

But I guess those are the two methods for an LSA type 5. Either
change the tag as Ciprian mentioned or activate "capability vrf-lite"
on the other router R6 as Antonio pointed out.

As far as I have read "capabililty vrf-lite" will disable checking of
the down bit (type-3 LSA) and the domain-tag (type-5 LSA). Is this
correct?

Rgds,
Richard
