It should be something like that, but I think Alain was suggesting that
a node-based policy would not be sufficient. It should be at least
application based policy, since different applications will not
work with 3041 addresses.
I am posting this to both the IPv6 and MIB mailing lists to get the
benefit of both groups' feedback.
On our platform we support IP addresses that exist on multiple hosts but
are only owned (i.e., advertised to routers) by one of these hosts. They
exist on the other hosts as part of a worklo

Patrick Grossetete just pointed out to me that there is already a prefix
allocated (by APNIC) for documentation. It is:
2001:0DB8::/32
For more details see:

Since I don't think we need two, I will remove the one I proposed

Alain,
All your points are valid, but I'd argue the node requirements
document is the wrong place to have this level of detail.
Instead, 3041 should be respun with more text about these issues. I
think Node requirements would be better off (in general) just pointing
to other basic documents and l

Hi all,
I will re-read 3041, craft some text, point to a relevant section
in 3041. I'll try to get this done today.
thanks,
John
