Figure 5-29. Routers Links Advertisement

In router links advertisements, the Link State ID field is set to
the router’s OSPF Router ID. The T – bit is set in the
advertisement’s Option field if and only if the router is able to
calculate a separate set of routes for each IP Type of Service
(TOS). Router links advertisements are flooded throughout a
single area only.
