So I assume that you also require such IID to vary across networks, right? If not, it would be pretty ironic (*) that you make the effort of clarifying that the IID of temporary addresses should change when you move from one network to another, but then allow the stable IID to remain constant across networks. (*) unless we just want to rubberstamp what Microsoft has implemented (stable addresses with IIDs that are constant across networks), and pretend that that's the right thing to do Thanks, -- Fernando Gont SI6 Networks e-mail: [email protected] PGP Fingerprint: 6666 31C6 D484 63B2 8FB1 E3C4 AE25 0D55 1D4E 7492 -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list [email protected] Administrative Requests: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
