unmanaged and policy are at different ends of the scale. I don't know how you can do anything automatic with that. in the homenet prototype I was talking about we implemented draft-bhandari-dhc-class-based-prefix-04. where we attached a "colour" to each address prefix. this could then be used as a handle for SAS/DAS or for the application. I don't think the homenet should get into the "policy" part of this, but rather just provide some simple tools/infrastructure. > I agree SADR is a major part of the right solution.

I've always seen SADR as a network function. hosts would do RFC6724. there would be some gain in being able to signal hosts with routing information. not sure what that should be, unless we would just have hosts participate in the IGP. > And of course the legacy stuff is out there. > > Re-reading sections on multihoming (3.2.4, also 3.4.4), there is enough room > for solution space.
