This draft argues for looking at the topologies that can be made to work with consumer IPv4 home routers/NATs, and specifies how DHCP prefix delegation can be done in a simple way in such networks.

None of us authors will be at the interim meeting, but perhaps we can discuss this remotely if folks are interested.

A new version of I-D, draft-chakrabarti-homenet-prefix-alloc-00.txt has been successfully submitted by Erik Nordmark and posted to the IETF repository.

Filename:        draft-chakrabarti-homenet-prefix-alloc
Revision:        00
Title:           Simple Approach to Prefix Distribution in Basic Home Networks
Creation date:   2011-10-04
WG ID:           Individual Submission
Number of pages: 24

Abstract:
   Modern IPv4 home networks are often configured with multi-level of
   NATs and Residential gateways to separate islands of networks used
   for different purposes.  With the introduction of IPv6 home networks
   we'd like to be able to maintain the same topological freedom as we
   have with IPv4 but without requiring any IPv6 NATs.  This document
   specifies the topological restrictions for what we term Basic Home
   Networks and specifies how DHCPv4 Prefix Delegation can be used to
   autoconfigure IPv6 address prefixes in such networks.
