The draft describes an option to be included in the RA.  However,
section 4 calls it a "NDP Expansion Option", meaning this option could
be included in - other than RA - NDP messages(?)

One would clarify that this Flags Expansion Option is to be used only
preceded by the RA header (Type 134).

At least because the necessity of this new option with flags comes
exclusively from the lack of flag space in RA, not in NS for example.

No?

All, This is a formal call to request IPv6 WG feedback on adopting the below draft. The premise of the draft is to expand the flags field that is quickly running out of bits.

Please provide your preference (positive or negative) on having this document become an IPv6 WG document. Comments on the contents are most welcome as well.

Regards, Brian

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


Title : IPv6 Router Advertisement Flags Option Author(s) : B. Haberman, R. Hinden Filename : draft-haberman-ipv6-ra-flags-option-00.txt Pages : 7 Date : 2006-8-1

The IPv6 Neighbor Discovery's Router Advertisement message contains an 8-bit field reserved for single-bit flags. Several protocols have reserved flags in this field and others are preparing to reserve a sufficient number of flags to exhaust the field. This document defines an option to the Router Advertisement message that expands the available number of flag bits available.
