Hi folks,
I'm revisiting my code that checks whether a route update offers improvement
right now, and imho the “To briefly summarize, ..” Part of section 8.1. is a
bit misleading, since it doesn't cover all the cases clearly (and being lazy, I
used it as my only reference first). Therefore, I'd propose to remove the
following paragraphs:

To briefly summarize, AdvRte must satisfy the following conditions
compared to the existing route table entry before it can be used:

o AdvRte is more recent, (i.e., AdvRte.SeqNum > Route.SeqNum) OR

o AdvRte is not stale and can safely restore an invalid route (i.e.
LoopFree (AdvRte, Route) == TRUE), OR

o AdvRte is not stale and is less costly.

Regards,
Lotte
