Hi,

We have recently submitted a draft which deals with OSPF LS sequence number
generation mechanism.

Abstract of the draft:
   The mechanism for LS sequence number generation as specified in RFC
   2328 and RFC 5340 is completely predictable.  This makes it prone to
   certain security attacks which exploit the predictable nature of LS
   sequence numbers.  This draft updates the RFC 2328 to make LS
   sequence number generation an implementation choice rather than a
   fixed increment by 1 for successive LSAs.

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-manjuldtv-ospf-sequence-number/

We solicit feedback/comments on the draft and request for adoption by the
OSPF working group.

Regards,
Manjul Khandelwal
