Hi Robert, I believe you are referring to the "BCP" (of Informational) content of these drafts. If so, my impression is that the authors wanted to put this information together for the benefit of the operator community. I'll let them respond.
You can see my comments during the BESS WG adoption poll for one of the drafts here [1]. My concern was more the parts that need standardization need to be called out very succinctly (in hopefully a short draft) and the rest is all simply informational material that can be clubbed together to perhaps make more efficient use of reviewers time. Thanks, Ketan [1] https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/bess/Wj-Y_m-t7C0bZ90NM-hmQbOYoPY/ On Fri, Nov 11, 2022 at 5:59 PM Robert Raszuk <rob...@raszuk.net> wrote: > Hi Ketan, > > If you are referring to interconnecting v4 only sites draft I have number > of comments: > > * The draft is not needed at all > > * we can seamlessly interconnect v4 sites over v6 core using v4 mapped v6 > addresses > > * Zero control plane change is required/needed > > * number of vendors are shipping it > > Moreover sites even if today speaking v4 only sooner then later will talk > also v6.
