why not just say: --- Users of GUPIs are cautioned that there is currently no known feasible way of routing everyone's GUPIs through the global Internet. Therefore it is unreasonable to expect GUPIs to be globally reachable, and routing of GUPIs between networks is by bilateral agreement only. ISPs in the public Internet SHOULD filter traffic to and from GUPIs, and SHOULD filter GUPIs from routing advertisements that are sent to other ISPs. These recommendations may be revised in the future if advances are made in routing technology. --- Is that so difficult? -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPng Working Group Mailing List IPng Home Page: http://playground.sun.com/ipng FTP archive: ftp://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng Direct all administrative requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------
