Is there some reason that the flooding mechanism can't distribute the list of edge CPE routers, and then DHCPv6 can be used in unicast request/reply to ask those CPE routers for things.
(I would even wonder if the CPE routers shouldn't be identified by their ULA rather than self-identifying by the address in the subnet the deal with) This is how I imagined the DHCPv6 PD mechanism working before draft-chakrabarti-homenet-prefix-alloc-01 was written, which imagined a strict hierarchal tree. -- ] He who is tired of Weird Al is tired of life! | firewalls [ ] Michael Richardson, Sandelman Software Works, Ottawa, ON |net architect[ ] m...@sandelman.ottawa.on.ca http://www.sandelman.ottawa.on.ca/ |device driver[ Kyoto Plus: watch the video <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzx1ycLXQSE> then sign the petition.
