By "MIF", do you mean multiple interfaces per host, or the MIF WG solution (MPVDs)? The former is obvious but I'm not sure that any case has been made to require MPVDs in the basic Homenet model. There are no references to the MIF WG or its documents in the Homenet architecture RFC. Brian > I think plug-and-play is a work in progress until routing is decided.

If each of Babel and IS-IS are auto-configurable or close to it, the two combined can be auto-configurable as well. They each have to distribute their static and connected routes to each other and such a distribution can totally be automated. > > Thanks, > > Hemant > > -----Original Message----- > From: Pierre Pfister [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Monday, July 27, 2015 2:34 PM > To: Hemant Singh (shemant) > Cc: Pascal Thubert (pthubert); Ted Lemon; HOMENET; Terry Manderson; Gert > Doering; Dino Farinacci; Mikael Abrahamsson > Subject: Re: [homenet] Moving forward. > > > I just spent one hour at my sister’s home trying to optimize the positioning > of a WiFi repeater. > Her home is definitely an average-sized one, with average people living in it > that do not know anything about IP networking. > But they have an ethernet link, a PLC link because the ISP told them to use > it, and a dummy wifi repeater which does some black magic to extend the wifi > network without requiring more configuration. > > So I’d say: > (c) A home network may have multiple wifi links.
