DAD could be interpreted to mean, not the specific method defined in the IPv6 RFCs, but 'some way of detecting duplicate addresses that is likely to work in this situation'. However, given that DAD as deployed doesn't work due to hidden nodes, this becomes an extra requirement on APs and other wir

So, I believe you could do this: use one SSID for meshing routers and a different one for clients (possibly hiding the mesh from the clients to avoid end-user confusion). On Sun, Jun 23, 2013 at 8:37 PM, Acee Lindem wrote: > > On Jun 23, 2013, at 1:07 AM, Andrew McGregor wrote: > >

I actually think that some MANET technologies are applicable here... I don't recall what happened to its standardisation process, but wOSPF has a lot of nice properties here, not least being that we have homenet considering an OSPF based solution, and wOSPF provides the necessary mechanics to deal

Ah, that makes much more sense. That's true, however there are some existing solutions that partially work, and I don't think them bad. Limited, yes, but not bad. So it isn't crazy to think of extending them. Andrew On Thu, Mar 14, 2013 at 1:49 AM, Michael Thomas wrote: > On 03/13/2013 09:2

I've met one that will allocate more /48s if you ask, and have met a DHCPv6 server implementation that would give you a new prefix if you generated a new client ID. So, yes, they easily can exist and in at least one case do. On Wed, Mar 13, 2013 at 3:59 PM, Tim Chown wrote: > > On 11 Mar 2013,

Also, we need to distinguish between a deployment that will hand out exactly one /64 (broken) and one that will hand out multiple /64s on request, just not necessarily contiguous (strange, but not so broken). On Sat, Mar 9, 2013 at 8:57 AM, Ted Lemon wrote: > I am a bit skeptical that we don't

This whole thread is making me think that specifying that we use either babel (with attention to getting it documented properly) or one of the OSPFv4 MANET extensions, in the case where we have only a /64 and perhaps any time we find we have an 802.11s, ad-hoc or NBMA interface in play. That wa

Nice. Yes, that's a reasonable way to do that. Recursive PD seems to inherently need some administrative input. BTW, our switch implementation can do either. Andrew On 7/11/2012, at 10:51 AM, Ralph Droms wrote: > Clarifying my remarks at the mic... > > Using PD in a home network isn't hard
