RE: RFC 2461[bis]: RS with srcaddr but w/o SLLAO

2005-02-19 Thread Soliman, Hesham
Folks, Just to make sure this issue is addressed, I think we can allow routers to either respond with a unicast or multicast RA in the case where an RS without SLLAO is received. It seems like there are different cases where multicast would make more sense than unicast (or at least implementers

Re: IPv6 Address Architecture update question

2005-02-19 Thread Fred L. Templin
I am just re-joining the list after a several-month hiatus due to personal circumstances. Just glancing at the archives over the past few weeks, on the subject of IPv6 addresses with embedded IPv4 addresses, the discussion that has taken place so far is incomplete in that it fails to mention ISATA

Hi Hesham, Greg. Soliman, Hesham wrote: Christian, Thanks for the detailed description. I think Nick brought this up some time ago too. My suggestion is that upon reception of an RS with no SLLAO the router checks if an entry already exists, if none exists then it creates one and puts it in STALE.

Re: [NDProxy#16] Loop prevention, revisited

Erik, FWIW it also support a single proxy having multiple downstream interfaces. I don't know if that is an interesting case when multiple L2 technologies are being used. Good point. I can think of a device with more than two interfaces (for example, GPRS, WLAN, BT, and USB). I think people ar

Hi, I would like to know whether following updates are stable enough to implement or is there any possibility of having a newer revision on these (other than a new RFC) draft-ietf-ipv6-rfc2011-update-10.txt draft-ietf-ipv6-rfc2012-update-06.txt draft-ietf-ipv6-rfc2013-update-04.txt thanks Swaroo

Hi, Just FYI. IPv6 Promotion Council of Japan has developed the web-based IPv6 space management tool and make the source code available to public. This tool is especially prepared for LIRs to report the assignments of /48s to RIRs which is mandated by RIR's IPv6 allocation and assignment policy. ht
