Hi, Dave, 1. I completely agree with the need you expressed to clarify what is meant by stateless depending on which states it applies to.
2. Unless I misinterpreted, you asked about the failure mode of a host that isn't part of a shared IPv4 address system and is attached to such a system. Assuming that, in the context of the discussion, this implicitly referred to a "static" shared-address system, I don't see which problem there would be: - If a node is attached to an IPv6 network and ignores the static shared-address system of this network, it won't be able to receive/accept parameters of this-system mapping rule(s). - It will therefore ignore that it could have used an exclusive port set of a global IPv4 address. - It will do nothing with its assigned address-and-port-set. Is this OK, or did you have in mind something more complicated which you could detail? Kind regards, RD _______________________________________________ Softwires mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/softwires
