OK: Largest Possible Subnets. I disagree with this principle. Why is switching (or bridging) better than routing? Is policy easier to write for MAC addresses than IP addresses? Is the network more resilient to devices (including other routers) being added, removed, interconnected, or moved? One should have more than a /64 per interface, so when a new router is joined, it can get a prefix, rather than reconfiguring addressing throughout the home. Transparent end-to-end. Yes, as long as "addressable" != "reachable". We are not ruling out ACLs or firewalls. I will return to the firewall diatribe, if I must. "Administratively unreachable" is transparent, altered IP headers are not. IP Connectivity between All Nodes. Inconsistent with the above, and inconsistent with any kind of security policy (e.g., don't let guests reach my file share). Says, "IP-layer connectivity" then says "at the link layer where possible". I thought those were different layers. Intelligent Policy. I don't know what this section means. No QoS, WRED, or AQM? There's a terminology difference between fun-multi-router and homenet-architecutre: is a LAN a single segment, or a home-area network?
