Question on LMP Adjacency



Hi, ccampers
 
I've a question on the LMP adjacency.
In the LMP draft, the definition is as follows:
 
   An "LMP adjacency" is formed between two nodes when at least one bi-
   directional control channel is established between them. Multiple
   control channels may be active simultaneously for each adjacency;
   control channel parameters, however, MUST be individually negotiated
   for each control channel.
 
Then, my question is this.
 
For an example,
we assume a sample network consisting of Node#1, Node#2, and Node#3. Node#1 is directly connected to Node#2, and Node#2 is directly connected to Node#3.
This means there is no direct connection between Node#1 and Node#3 in the sample network.
In this situation, we assume that an EoS channel(EoS#1) between Node#1 and Node#2 is terminated, but another EoS channel(EoS#2) between Node#1 and Node#3 is terminated through Node#2.
Here, I think that in case of the EoS#1, LMP adjacent nodes are Node#1 and Node#2, but in case of the EoS#2, LMP adjacent nodes are Node#1 and Node#3. In addition, I think that the type of data link for EoS#1 and EoS#2 is a component link and the link connection verification of EoS#2 between Node#1 and Node#3 could be performed. The only condition is, of course,  is to observe the definition of the LMP adjacency above.
 
Node#1               Node#2            Node#3
      |-----EoS#1----|                        |
      |------------EoS#2------------|
 
Could you help me if my understanding is short ?
 
Thanks,
 
Young.
