The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Updates to Dynamic IPv6 Multicast Address Group IDs' (draft-ietf-pim-updt-ipv6-dyn-mcast-addr-grp-id-13.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Protocols for IP Multicast Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Gunter Van de Velde, Jim Guichard and Ketan Talaulikar. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pim-updt-ipv6-dyn-mcast-addr-grp-id/ Technical Summary Describes limitations of the existing range of dynamic IPv6 multicast addresses specified in RFC3307. Recommends replacing these allocations with a new registry in the IPv6 Multicast Address Space Registry registry group. Suggests initial contents of the new registry: a reduced allocation for MADCAP (RFC2730), a Private Use range, and Solicited-Node multicast addresses (which were not previously noted in RFC3307). Working Group Summary Was there anything in the WG process that is worth noting? For example, was there controversy about particular points or were there decisions where the consensus was particularly rough? Majority of the working group is silent, but believe most of the WG silently support it. No one is against. Document Quality Are there existing implementations of the protocol? Have a significant number of vendors indicated their plan to implement the specification? Are there any reviewers that merit special mention as having done a thorough review, e.g., one that resulted in important changes or a conclusion that the document had no substantive issues? If there was a MIB Doctor, Media Type, or other Expert Review, what was its course (briefly)? In the case of a Media Type Review, on what date was the request posted? Nothing to implement. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Stig Venaas. The Responsible Area Director is Gunter Van de Velde.
