Abstract:
This memo describes a home network prefix and address assignment
algorithm running on top of any 'flooding protocol' that fulfills the
specified requirements. It is expected that home border routers are
allocated one or multiple IPv6 prefixes through DHCPv6 Prefix
Delegation (PD) or that prefixes are made available through other
means. An IPv4 address can also be assigned and private addresses be
used with NAT to provide IPv4 connectivity. In both cases, provided
prefixes need to be efficiently divided among the multiple links, and
routers need to obtain addresses. This document describes a
distributed algorithm for IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes division, assignment
and router's address assignment, and specifies how hosts can be given
addresses and configuration options using DHCP or SLAAC.
