Looks like a can of worms to me.
How do you intend to do this?
Are there Homenet topology limitations?
How will the user know not to plug the LAN interface of a 7084 router
into a WAN interface?
7084 (6204bis) was intended to be a dead end once Homenet completed
AFAICS.
Well maybe it was worded a bit ambiguously. The main idea behind this
was that an HNCP router should provide "basic connectivity" in the form
of DHCPv4 and DHCPv6-PD to non-HNCP-routers. 7084 routers should not do
anything fancy and just work as legacy devices believing the homenet is
their ISP.
This should not mean you should be able to "tunnel" through 7084 routers
or so.
Does that sound sane? And maybe what would be a better wording for this
idea?
