There's no "attached host control" part in HNCP -- there's just RA and DHCPv4 (DHCPv6 optional). HNCP is purely a router-router protocol. It's a pretty clean design. In principle, it might be possible to use routing protocol metrics to influence RFC 4191 preferences, but I'm not sure how that would work. If you know (and have implementation experience), I'm interested. -- Juliusz _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
