Folks,

A while back, OPSEC considered an Informational draft aimed at reducing a 
router's attach surface. One recommendation was to use unnumbered interface to 
the greatest degree possible. This recommendation was problematic because it is 
impossible to ping an unnumbered interface.

This week, the INTAREA WG is considering adoption of an Extended PING (XPING) 
draft. XPING allows operators to ping unnumbered interfaces.

Please take a look at the draft (draft-bonica-intarea-eping-04). If you think 
that it is headed in the right direction, please voice support for adoption on 
the INTAREA WG mailing list.

                                                                             Ron

Call for adoption
