Fred: I think what would be best is to define a "service provider" scope that is smaller than global, and larger than organization. These would be defined to be forwarded to ISPs by default, although organizations that don't want that can always filter them at the desired boundary. That way, the clients can always use a fixed scope = fixed multicast group, avoiding the need for discovery or configuration here. -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list ipv6@ietf.org Administrative Requests: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
