There are nine scenarios, right? 1) RA w/auto-conf, M off, O off 2) RA w/auto-conf, M on, O off 3) RA w/auto-conf, M off, O on 4) RA w/auto-conf, M on, O on 5) RA w/o auto-conf, M off, O off 6) RA w/o auto-conf, M on, O off 7) RA w/o auto-conf, M off, O on 8) RA w/o auto-conf, M on, O on 9) No RA
>From a cable deployment perspective, I would expect... 1) CM stateless auto-conf from advertised route(s) 2) CM stateless auto-conf from advertised route(s) plus DHCPv6 for additional address(es) 3) CM stateless auto-conf from advertised route(s) plus DHCPv6 for addition info 4) CM stateless auto-conf from advertised route(s) plus DHCPv6 for additional address(es) and additional info 5) same behavior as #9 below ? 6) DHCPv6 for address(es) only 7) DHCPv6 for additional info only 8) DHCPv6 for address(es) and additional info 9) CM stateless auto-conf link local address followed by DHCPv6 for additional address(es) and/or other info (same behavior as #5) This seems way to complicated though, and it would be much more deterministic for a CM to simply do #4 in all cases which would make the M/O bits useless. -ron -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list ipv6@ietf.org Administrative Requests: https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
