I have submitted an updated version of the IRON draft based on some new insights:
http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-templin-iron-07.txt This new version of the document makes some major conceptual improvements over the previous versions. IRON is now a hybrid system of tunneling and native routing, where the native IPv6 and IPv4 routing systems are leveraged for shortest path routing whenever possible. Tunneling is used to keep PI prefixes out of the global routing system, to accommodate nodes behind NATs and to provide anchor points for mobile networks without the need for adjunct mobility management mechanisms like MIP and NEMO. A simple route optimization mechanism using redirection is provided to reduce path stretch and to reduce load on performance-critical infrastructure elements. Multihoming and traffic engineering are also naturally accommodated. The document also includes several new diagrams which should make it easier to understand. As far as I can tell, there is no requirement that the document be finalized ahead of the IETF77 I-D submission deadline since RRG will not be meeting. Therefore, I'd like to extend the review deadline for IRON until COB on Monday, July 19th. Please post comments to the list as replies to this subject heading.
