Hello Dave and all: So far I have not seen how the MAC randomization deals with: - DAD - the chances of duplication seem much higher than for IPv6; maybe we can help by doing DAD with something like RFC 8505 on the first hop switch / AP. - differentiated environments - the preferred behavior on

I have read the emails and the draft . I am not clear what the goal of the BOF is. Could the proponents state it clearly? From the agenda, Use Cases: • LAN gateway NAPT forwarding - (PRESENTER TBD) • Static NAPT policies - (PRESENTER TBD) • Persistent DHCP IP address a

Hi Michael, Thanks for the notes. At this stage, our #1 objective is to document the use cases that may broke and propose best practice to transition to dynamic mac-address. We don't have the full picture of the impact. We think IETF is a good platform to gather more information. Thanks, Yiu

That agenda and draft seem to make the seemingly common enough mistake of only focusing on what a new privacy or security mechanism breaks and glossing over the good reasons why people introduce these mechanisms. I hope the BoF proponents fix that because otherwise they may end up giving the impre
