This message is to introduce a new Internet-Draft titled: "Routing and Addressing in Next-Generation EnteRprises (RANGER)"
RANGER is an architectural framework that uses well known (and in some cases widely-deployed) functional elements. RANGER is not a technical specification in itself, however it provides applicability analysis for the combination of existing and emerging technical specifications. In particular, it outlines an "enterprise-within-enterprise" framework that addresses issues such as routing scaling, IPv6/IPv4 coexistence, link MTU diversity, mobile ad-hoc networking, autoconfiguration, etc. The RANGER enterprise network model supports cooperative operations between diverse organizations that may have competing interests. The model can therefore be applied to the global Internet itself. In order to reduce fragmentation, please post any follow-up comments or questions to the int-area and rrg lists only.

Title : Routing and Addressing in Next-Generation EnteRprises (RANGER) Author(s) : F. Templin Filename : draft-templin-ranger-00.txt Pages : 17 Date : 2008-10-14 Enterprise networks will require support for both Internet protocol versions (IPv4 and IPv6) for an indeterminant period; perhaps even indefinitely. This is particularly true for existing enterprise networks that must introduce IPv6 without disruption of IPv4 services, but the same principles apply also to clean-slate deployments in new enterprises. Next-generation enterprises therefore require an architected solution for coordination of their internal routing and addressing plans for both IPv6 and IPv4. The RANGER architecture addresses these requirements.
