RE: IPv6 WG Last Call on IPv6 Global Unicast Address Format for the 2000::/3 Prefix

2003-02-25 Thread Erik Nordmark
The idea is that developers must not hardcode any assumptions. The reason they must not is because IANA will later delegate the currently unassigned parts of the space to a purpose we don't know, including possibly an extension to Global Unicast. The proposed text reads as if the IANA

Thomas, See my comments inline: We don't know, and 60 seconds is a compromise value anyway. But there seemed to be WG consensus that a default timeout is needed, since otherwise we are licensing implementors to create hard state. The authors have been round and round

Site-local clarification

Sec 2.5.6 of the site-local addressing architecture states that: Site-Local addresses have the following format: | 111011 | 54 bit subnet ID | 64 bit Interface ID | Site-local addresses are designed to be used for addressing inside of a site without the need for a global prefix. Although

TCP has the problem that it simply can't be used with an anycast address without changing the protocol or somehow handling the binding transparently on L3 (as in MIPv6). UDP doesn't have this problem; at most the applications need to be changed to react correctly to peer
