Incomplete Support for Unicast Hellos (RFC 8966 Appendix F Non-Compliance)
It seems the current implementation doesn't support unicast at this moment. In the future, it would be important to support:
Missing Unicast Hello Sequence Number Tracking
Problem: The implementation only tracks a single Hello sequence number per neighbor.
RFC Requirement: Separate sequence numbers must be maintained for unicast and multicast Hellos.
Suggested Fix:
Add unicast_hello_seqno_in and unicast_hello_seqno_out fields to the struct neighbor.
Incomplete Hello History Tracking
Problem: A single reach field is used to track Hello history.
RFC Requirement: Hello histories must be tracked independently for multicast and unicast Hellos.
Suggested Fix:
Add separate mcast_reach and ucast_reach fields in the neighbor structure.
Incomplete Timer Handling
Problem: There is no separate timer for unicast Hellos.
RFC Requirement: Timer logic must independently handle expiration for each Hello type.
Suggested Fix:
Add a ucast_hello_time field and update the Hello timer processing logic accordingly.
