Using randomized host identifiers is way more private than sticking a MAC address in the IPv6 address. In fact, rather than your draft proposing to not use privacy addresses, we should pursue the deprecation of using EUI-64 in addresses. The worst part of your draft is that , if we published it, it would give the impression that for the IETF, EUI-64 addresses are more secure than privacy addresses. This is obviously false. -- Christian Huitema -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list ipv6@ietf.org Administrative Requests: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
