Our current 'world view' is that companies get stable addresses. Consumers get crap. We invent complicated stuff like dynamically turning ULA on and off that nobody else uses. We force renumbering in the name of privacy, etc. We start by giving consumers a swamp and then try to build something on top of it. We make choices, like the DNS server has to be in the router, because only the router knows about the current prefix, etc. _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
