seems to understand Mail-Followup-To, which is nice.
Thanks for catching the typo. My understanding is that there is a
general desire (human nature) to get a larger netblock than 100.64/10
in CG-NAT. This could be used for either growing market or less
dynamic reassignment. The 240/4 can provide additional benefits to
So nobody in particular is asking for this. Thanks for confirming.
CG-NAT operations such as static addressing that no one has realized
possible. So, I am putting the solution on the table. This is a basic
process of sharing the new discoveries. Is there anything wrong with
the process? On the other hand, if RFC6598 had picked 240/4 instead of
100.64/10 as the netblock, we do not need today's discussions.
What's wrong with the process is that you're wasting the time of a lot
of people on this mailing list with this crusade that has already
veered into personal attacks such as when you questioned Randy Bush's
experience. In that respect it would indeed have been better for
RFC6598 to have picked 240/4 in the sense that it would have saved us
94 out of the 104 mails currently in this thread and, unfortunately,
counting.
