Hi Teemu, I read your proposal and have been thinking about it. I'd like to share some of my thoughts as feedback for you. My thoughts are a bit random and not well-organized. They are also many in number. Sorry about that. First let me say that I do see increased prevalence of network interfaces

This is interesting. Thanks for doing these tests and submitting the results. When testing the switching behavior, I'm curious for the " SLAAC-only host receiving A=0&M=1 " case as to what you set the Preferred Lifetime to, when you set A=0. I'm guessing Preferred Lifetime > 0? Since RFC 4862 st

If an LV never ever wanted to get a PD from anything other than an IV, and an IV could only ever expect to delegate to a LV, then I see no problem. On the other hand, if these things do expect the same physical links to be used to connect with other ecosystems (like home networks or hotspots) th

I think the rules for which (temporary vs not temporary) to use should be application-specific. And the people who are best-positioned to determine what's right for the app are the app developers or designers. Not IETF. I vote for 3484bis to remain silent as to a preference, but to provide guida

I'm very much opposed to extending RA for this purpose. Having 2 ways to do the same thing serves to increase complexity of the overall ecosystem. Unless you can guarantee that the 2nd method will only ever be used in a closed system (network manager consciously knows that this is the mechanism

I'm unaware of any member of the mass market community (which accounts for a whole lot of "nodes" and "routers") who are asking for or wanting or expecting DNCP Relay. That's SOHO, Consumer, or the ISPs that serve them. Are there specialized niches inside these communities that might like DHCP Rela
