I think there are two possible deployment models. 1. The « My Friendly ISP » model Every ISP-provided CPE participates in HNCP. Each ISP has access to all the information flooded into the Homenet, including information about External Links announced by other ISPs. 2. The « My Home, my Castle » model HNCP ends at the Edge Home Router (EHR). The CPE is outside the Homenet, and the link between the CPE and the EHR is treated as External (untrusted) by HNCP. Information between the CPE and the Homenet is communicated over non-Homenet protocols such as DHCPv6-PD. The CPE has no topology information about the Homenet, and doesn't even know that the Homenet is connected to multiple CPEs. Note that the « My Home, my Castle » model is more general, since it can implement the « My Friendly ISP » model by co-locating the EHR and the CPE. I don't think the opposite is true -- once you've leaked HNCP data to the ISP, there's no way to unleak it. -- Juliusz _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
