Dear all, A new draft draft-guo-softwire-sc-discovery has been submitted to softwire WG. It proposes a general softwire (tunnel) concentrator discovery mechanism. It is generic to server different kinds of tunnel/softwire concentrator auto dsicover scenarios includes the scenario of draft-dhankins-softwire-tunnel-option.
Please view and comments.
