This was called into question, and I suspect that the original change which implemented this is most partially incorrect as it cited this Redmine issue specifically (<a href="https://redmine.named-data.net/issues/1841" style="color: rgb(70, 120, 134); text-decoration: underline;">https://redmine.named-data.net/issues/1841</a>) which would not entail setting those flags for advertised prefixes, just the ones related to NLSR function. I believe I found the point in the code where this is being set and should just be able to modify it to not set the capture flag on locally advertised prefixes/prefixes from Name LSAs, but I wanted to get feedback before submitting such a change.<o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif;">Alex Lane<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></div></div><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Monaco; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; float: none; display: inline !important;">_______________________________________________</span><br style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Monaco; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Monaco; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; float: none; display: inline !important;">Nfd-dev mailing list</span><br style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Monaco; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;"><a href="mailto:Nfd-dev@lists.cs.ucla.edu" style="color: rgb(70, 120, 134); text-decoration: underline; font-family: Monaco; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;">Nfd-dev@lists.cs.ucla.edu</a><br style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Monaco; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;"><a href="https://www.lists.cs.ucla.edu/mailman/listinfo/nfd-dev" style="color: rgb(70, 120, 134); text-decoration: underline; font-family: Monaco; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;">https://www.lists.cs.ucla.edu/mailman/listinfo/nfd-dev</a></div></blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
