"YES -- Deprecate site-local unicast addressing". > Site local address complicates overall access control. > Applications has to be altered to support site local addresses > (= increased cost of IPv6 transition). Site local address increse cost of network products. Because venders must do a lot of test for site local addreses. (If site local address spec does not change implementation, earnest venders will do additional tests.) Therefore venders will delay to shipment of IPv6 products. It is very bad for IPv6 deployment and transition. ------ Yoshifumi Atarashi Hitachi, Ltd. -------------------------------------------------------------------- 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] --------------------------------------------------------------------
