I would like to deploy hncp in my upcoming make-wifi-fast testbed.
However the biggest headache is ensuring that all the routers
inbetween have hncp burned into them, and are only acting as relays as
I generally only obtain a few (/60) real IPv6 prefixes per GW and they
only need to be on the APs.

GW1 - routerA - routerB - routerC - routerD - AP1
                                         |
GW2 - routerE - routerF - routerG - routerH - AP2
                           |
                         AP3

GW3 ...

(the actual topology of the testbed is way more complex than this
(covering ethernet, wifi, and moca) and I am not going into it here)

1) is there a way to configure hncpd as purely a relay, and NOT do any
address assignment at all on routers B,C,D,F,G,H?

2) have you tested that it is indeed possible to get the separate ipv6
prefixes from GW1,GW2,GW3 to AP1,AP2, AP3?

3) Can ULA and "Real" address assignment be distinguished along the
way? I have no problem assigning ULAs to the routers, but dont want to
use up real addresses on them.

4) What happens when someone pulls the plug on GW1, it reboots, and
gets a new Ipv6 subnet (I have seen comcast do this to me
every time that happens with the code I have in place now - no
retraction, and I go through hell manually eliminating every former
prefix from the network. Yes. I have upses. And cerowrt, at least,
stays up for 90+ days without a problem. But it happens and sucks when
it does)
