While I don't much care whether it is possible or not to do as Steve suggested - now and presumably in the future have each IPv6 node generate a unique 64 bit identifier based solely on identifying numbers in its own hardware - I was trying to discuss what he wrote, in a separate thread. Do you think it is or would be practical to do this? If so, how? Or do you believe that this is irrelevant to the RRG? - Robin _______________________________________________ rrg mailing list [email protected] http://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/rrg
