You're going to get this in any case, for free :-). An endpoint cannot assume that a network it is connected to has a particular technology (such as GSE), so it needs to take care of its own multihoming/mobility needs. No matter what happens in routing, endpoints are going to move toward true location/identification separation. This relieves the pressure on RRG and opens up opportunities. > But, if we are going to do that, we are going to have to actually make > renumbering a LOT easier.

But it will take more work than that. Endpoints are easier than sites. swb _______________________________________________ rrg mailing list [email protected] http://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/rrg
