For my part, I have a hard time foreseeing how the expectation that residential sites will always have more space to assign than a single /64 subnet is even remotely reasonable. Far too many service providers are casting into operational concrete topologies that assign only one subnet to each billable subscriber gateway.
Then those need to re-think their decisions.
I don't hold out much hope that much of a market will ever exist for residential networks with multiple subnets per subscriber. I also don't hold out much hope for the kind of coordination between service providers that will permit multihomed residential sites to work well.
Why do you believe we need coordination between service providers to permit multihomed services to work well? I thought the whole idea was to handle multiple upstream prefixes and make sure everything is routed to the correct ISP?
That's why it looks to me like HOMENET will eventually converge on specifying single /64 links behind a single residential gateway.
I hope not. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swm...@swm.pp.se _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
