That would be a trivial check in the RADIUS client, right? If the Framed-IPv6-Prefix falls into the Delegated-IPv6-Prefix, then you do the exclude, otherwise not. > Today the BNG (that in this case is acting both as RADIUS Client and > Delegating Router) has no mean to know if the Framed-IPv6-Prefix should be > used for the PD_EXCLUDE or not and in my opinion it would be better not > overload the sematic of the Framed-IPv6-Prefix. > Any comment?
