The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Using DHCPv6-PD to Allocate Unique IPv6 Prefix per Client in Large Broadcast Networks' (draft-ietf-v6ops-dhcp-pd-per-device-08.txt) as Informational RFC
This document is the product of the IPv6 Operations Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Warren Kumari and Mahesh Jethanandani. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-v6ops-dhcp-pd-per-device/ Technical Summary This document discusses an IPv6 deployment scenario when individual clients connected to large broadcast networks (such as enterprise networks or public Wi-Fi networks) are allocated unique prefixes via DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation (DHCPv6-PD). Working Group Summary This document had a large email discussion over its lifecycle, with some individuals expressing reservations. There was also a robust discussion after the working group chairs declared consensus. These are summarized in the Shepherd Writeup. While it is always nicer to have unanimous consensus on a document, I believe that the concerns raised were truly considered by the working group, that the working group made an informed decision, that the objections are not enough of a technical problem to prevent moving forward, and that individuals raising concerns accept being in the rough. Document Quality The document is well written, and easy to understand. It documents and recommends a deployment model, using existing technologies. Personnel Timothy Winters is DS. Warren "Ace" Kumari is RAD!!!! _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
