I made an unplanned experiment yesterday. Because of a discussion in 6man, I set up my laptop to run with only temporary IPv6 addresses (RFC 4941 addresses). And then I ran my tests of the GRASP prototype for a while. After half an hour or so, GRASP stopped working, because the laptop's address changed automatically, so the cached discovery results became invalid.
So, one conclusion is that my implementation should be more aggressive about aging out the discovery cache. But it raises a question about how resistant we need the Anima infrastructure to be against renumbering. It seems to me that an autonomic mechanism really needs to repair itself in that case. Any thoughts? Regards Brian _______________________________________________ Anima mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/anima
