In your previous mail you wrote: It's important that the solution allows the tool to discover multiple addresses used by a single node, i.e. the management view should show a multiaddressed node (e.g. two globals and seven RFC3041 addresses on one node) and not believe it's viewing multiple separate nodes (which is a fault that a number of existing tools have, as we witnessed when running some renumbering scenario tests). => my default passive tool (ND table dump on routers via MIB/SNMP) gives all in use addresses of hosts and all addresses of routers. Explicit queries of hosts by SNMP or ICMP name lookups should give more (even too much :-).
It's important that multiaddressing is considered normal behaviour for management of IPv6 nodes. => I fully agree. [EMAIL PROTECTED] PS: for hosts the question is about direct or indirect management: direct gives more but needs tools (agents) on each host and raises security/privacy issues. Indirect is more standard but works only for "active" hosts, usually it is enough because "inactive"/invisible nodes are less sources of troubles. -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list ipv6@ietf.org Administrative Requests: https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
