Hi all,
I am submitting an ID,
http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/staging/draft-fujikawa-ipv6-src-addr-selection-02.txt
and suggesting in the draft that,
Before Rule 8 (Use longest matching prefix) in section 5. (Source
Address Selection) in RFC3484, the rule using longest-matching prefix
to the next hop is to be added.
The following is an example,
where the Rule 8 selects the roundabout path via ISP3,
while the method of using longest-matching prefix to the next hop
selects the shortest and best path,
when EN sends a packet to CN.
# In the previous IETF meeting I only showed a single router case.
# but this method is adaptable and useful to the multiple router case.
I would like to ask if 6man people is interested in this topic, and
this can become working group item.
