Please refer to http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/dhcwg/current/msg12575.html. Bernie Volz pointed out that you've defined yet another format for IPv6 prefixes in DHCPv6 options, and requests that you use one of the two existing formats. I also notice that it appears that you have a fixed-format option, but some parts of the option may or may not appear depending on server configuration, and that if they do not appear, the option merely has a shorter length. This is contrary to the way things are normally done in DHCP servers, and will require special UI or configuration file tweaks to get right. Med: I can change this easily if you think we need to do so. We use a fixed length because: * SSM_PREFIX64 and ASM_PREFIX64 are /96 * U_PREFIX64 follows RFC6052; it may have variable length with a maximum being /96. It would be better if each of the three optional fields in the option were simply its own option. Is there some strong reason why all three of these fields need to be in the same DHCP option? Med: I have provided an answer to this question here (http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/dhcwg/current/msg12577.html; and given I didn't received an answer from your side I thought you were fine with my explanation. ___ Softwires mailing list Softwires@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/softwires

Dear all, A new version was submitted with the following change: * Remove a normative reference. We believe this version is ready for a WGLC.
