Hi Fred,

Ack on the AERO capability.

I have come to the conclusion that I have to deal with IPv4 for the rest
of my career (assuming some left). Surely, some day in 2016 is not some
thing that I'm looking at. My point is to limit the solution scope and if
it happens that DMM solution is immensely successful, we can introduce
IPv4 interfaces in phases.
 

Regards
Sri
