Btw, I didn’t raise this morning, but I believe smooth renumbering from an ISP is possible, at least for cable ISPs (costly, but possible). This requires support for multiple concurrent prefix delegations on home routers, which I haven’t seen yet in the wild. This requirement isn’t explicitly mentioned in RFC7084, only indirectly through the support for DHCPv6-PD (WPD-1). So on the short term, proper implementation of RFC7084 L-13 is required for smoother unplanned renumbering. For smooth planned renumbering, support for multiple concurrent PDs is required.

But I can't tell from the draft how that happens. Presumably some process in the relevant CPE does it. At this time, I do not understand the DHCPv6-PD state machinery to enable temporal overlap of prefixes so one can achieve a graceful renumbering event. I wrote this text a while back but never sent it to DHC. Could someone please help by explaining how to do this temporal overlap using DHCPv6-PD? Hi, For several reasons, there is a need to have overlapping IPv6 addressing space, both delegated to devices (PD) or addresses (IA_NA), when doing graceful renumbering. Let's take the following network: ISP - CPE - HOST1 The CPE requests a prefix using PD, and is delegated 2001:DB8:100:100::/56. it then configures 2001:DB8:100:101::X/64 on its LAN interface. HOST1 uses DHCPv6 and asks for IA_NA and is assigned 2001:DB8:100:101::Y/128 IA_NA by CPE. Now, after a while, the customer decides he wants to change the addressing space, but he wants to do this gracefully, basically along the lines of RFC4192. So for a certain amount of time, he wants to have two PDs, and these need to be distinct. What would need to happen, is that the customer needs to signal to the ISP that he needs a second PD, that this should be distinct from the first one, and that he wants to keep both for a certain amount of time, but understands that the initial PD is not going to be refreshed/extended in time and will be removed. What needs to happen is that the CPE needs to get a new /60, it needs to allocate a /64 out of this in addition to the existing /64, HOST1 needs to understand that it should ask for a new IA_NA and that it should stop using the existing IA_NA for new connections. I don't know if this automatically happens if the RA for the old prefix shows up with a lower preferred timer set. So there are two issues here (I guess): How can the CPE indicate that it doesn't want the original prefix any more, request a new one, and let old one expire after a period of overlap? How will HOST1 understand that it needs to request a new IA_NA while still keeping the old IA_NA until it expires, and de-preferring the old IA_NA in the meantime? Also, how can the ISP initiate this kind of graceful renumbering event? The only way I can think of would be some kind of intent flag to say the lease time of this resource will not be extended and you should ask for a new one or something to that effect. -- Mikael Abrahamssonemail: swm...@swm.pp.se ___ homenet mailing list homenet@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet

I’ve done it in a production-like lab with cable equipment. I believe it was with an experimental OpenWRT or D-Link that supported dual-PD.

PD1 has a preferred lifetime of 0 and a valid lifetime of 24h. At this point, clients start using PD2 gradually as leases expire and get renewed. The number of disjoint routes in the ISP network raises (deaggregation happens) 4. The change is made overnight. At this point, all clients should already be using PD2. 5. Most clients will redo DHCPv6 (depending if they saw a link-down event, ymmv). PD2 is used everywhere and get re-aggregated in the original /40. PD1 should no longer be used, but is still routed (through B) and deaggregated. 6. PD1 is removed on the DHCPv6 server and lease time restored to its original value. After another 24h, PD1 is no longer present in home networks, no longer routed and no deaggregation remains. The only missing part to make this happen is for home routers to support multiple PDs. The specific DHCPv6 servers and CMTSes implementations I used already supported multi-PD years ago. The big advantage of this for cable operators is to keep user routes aggregated.

Re: [homenet] Orchestration of renumbering
Yup. Are you aware of similar issues with changing the IAID? If the ISP has a limit to how many prefixes can be assigned on a particular customer port, that could cause issues, but if it's a supported feature as it would be in Mikael's case, I think it should be OK. Do you know the details of what was causing the issue? I don't remember the details. I looked at BBF TR-124, to see if there was something similar there, and there wasn't. Then I looked at eRouter specs, and did see that they are specifically re-iterating the requirement for persistence. So maybe it came from the cable companies. Which could explain why my memory of details is so fuzzy. As for IAID, TR-124 says: The RG IAID value in DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 MUST be a 32 bit number encoded in network byte order. In cases where the RG is functioning with a single DHCP client identity, it MUST use value 1 for IAID for all DHCP interactions. IAID is defined in IETF RFC 3315. In cases where the RG is functioning with multiple DHCP client identities, the values of IAID have to start at 1 for the first identity and be incremented for each subsequent identity. The RG's mapping of IAID to its physical aspects or logical configuration SHOULD be as non-volatile as possible. For example, the RG MAY use IAID value 1 for the first physical interface and value 2 for the second. Alternatively, the RG MAY use IAID value 1 for the virtual circuit corresponding to the first connection object in the data model and value 2 for the second connection object in the data model. The TR-124 requirements are used by DSL providers for the CE routers they procure/provide, and aren't expected to apply to retail CE routers. The fact that this IAID requirement didn't make it into RFC 7084 leads me to believe that the behavior of retail CE routers wrt IAID is a don't care.

[homenet] Orchestration of renumbering
As I said at the microphone today, I think that the explanations of how the prefix-assignment and naming proposals will handle renumbering are convincing. I also agree that there is no real distinction between renumbering and a change of ISP (as far as prefixes and addresses are concerned, of course), and that break-before-make renumbering could come at any time due to an outage or ISP behaviour. Make-before-break renumbering (a.k.a. planned renumbering) is preferable but we can't rely on it. (I also try to never forget Fred Baker's observation that there is no such thing as renumbering: there is only numbering.) However, I am fairly convinced that this is not the whole story and that in the ideal world some sort of orchestration process is needed. I did look through the issues in RFC 7010 and RFC 5887, and fortunately most of them are beside the point for homenets. However, Dave Taht told us recently that renumbering *is* currently broken, and I'd like to see his list of issues. For now, here are the issues that I see: 0. Make sure that nobody ever even thinks about configuring an IPv6 address manually (unless it's link-local, I suppose). 1. Warn users that renumbering is planned/has started. (because long-living sessions will be affected, even in make-before-break) 2. We assume that a prefix delegation or withdrawal from above by DHCPv6-PD will trigger the appropriate actions by draft-ietf-homenet-prefix-assignment. But I can't tell from the draft how that happens. Presumably some process in the relevant CPE does it. 3. We also assume that a delegation or withdrawal will trigger the appropriate action according to the future renumbering text in the naming-architecture documents. Daniel's draft text says This section details how the CPE is expected to handle renumbering... Indeed, that is part of the orchestration process, but something in the CPE is needed to trigger this (after triggering the PA process). 4. Hosts need new DNS server addresses. I'm not sure who causes that to happen. 5. There may be unavoidable special cases (like informing firewalls of new and deleted prefixes). 99. Inform users that renumbering has finished.

Although, for _general IPv6 case_, perhaps some advanced^2 IPv6 socket API might have notification on this as well as e.g. missing lifetime information from address information etc. Speaking of which, cross-platform IPv6 APIs are trainwreck currently if you care about e.g. preferred+valid lifetimes of addresses. 2.
