Hi all,

if we overlook the last part about DNS for now, is this acceptable by people? I've read this through several times and I belive it satifsy the following asked by "Templin, Fred L" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

  1) can any site (large or small) get a ULA-C?
  2) can the ULA-C's be obtained at a nominal cost?
  4) can the ULA-C's be kept out of the DFZ?

i've removed part 3 on purpose since we can maybe take that discussion after the above agreement?

about part one - both the RIR and LIR field can be set to zero's for direct assignment, for other they can go through RIR.

these are my comments on the following I-D:

        Title      : Centrally Assigned Unique Local IPv6 Unicast Addresses
        Author(s)  : R. Hinden, B. Haberman
        Filename   : draft-ietf-ipv6-ula-central-02.txt
        Pages      : 11
        Date       : 2007-6-18

<http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipv6-ula-central-02.txt>

first, in 3.1, this table:

     | 7 bits |1|  40 bits   |  16 bits  |          64 bits           |
     +--------+-+------------+-----------+----------------------------+
     | Prefix |L| Global ID  | Subnet ID |        Interface ID        |
     +--------+-+------------+-----------+----------------------------+

should be replaced with this one:

     | 7 bits |1|  8 bits  | 16 bits | 16 bits | 80 bits  |
     +--------+-+----------+---------+---------+----------+
     | Prefix |L| Reserved | RIR Num | LIR Num | User Num |
     +--------+-+----------+---------+---------+----------+

where "Prefix" and "L" are defined as shown in central-02, and the other
fields are defined as follows:

    Reserved            Set to 0 by all implementors of this specification,
                        but may be set to nonzero by implementors of a later
                        specification.

    RIR Num             Identifiers assigned by IANA for each /16 as
                        allocated to an Regional Internet Address Registry
                        (RIR).  For direct allocations by IANA, the value
                        of zero (0x0000) is reserved.

    LIR Num             Identifiers assigned by RIR for each /32 as
                        allocated to a Local Internet Address Registry (LIR).
                        For direct allocations by an RIR, the value of zero
                        (0x0000) is reserved.

    User Num            Identifier assigned by an end user or network
                        operator who implements this specification.

second, delete all of section 3.2 including subsections 3.2.1, 3.2.2, 3.2.3.

third, replace section 7.0 with the following:

---

7.0 IANA Considerations

   IANA is hereby instructed to reserve address block FC::/7 for private
   unique addresses, and to allocate /32 blocks to Regional Internet
   Address Registries (RIRs) who request same after adopting policies
   consistent with this specification.  Allocation shall be similar in
   all ways to normal IANA address allocation to RIRs, including but not
   limited to IN-ADDR.ARPA delegations and WHOIS records.
