Dear all,

Dave rightly expresses in the Softwire meeting the need to separate/clarify 
discussion about:
- Stateless vs stateful
– Static vs dynamic port sets

The need to clarify is IMHO even larger than that.

I therefore worked out a way to present the range of solutions to be compared, 
with the following taken in consideration:
- The stateless/stateful IPv4 across IPv6 comparison isn't limited to IPv4 
shared addresses (applies also to exclusive IPv4 customer addresses).
- If there is, in BR/AFBR's, no Customer state (i.e. no states referring to 
individual IPv6 prefixes), there can't be per-transport-connection state either.
- CE-CE direct paths are possible only if IPv4/IPv6 mappings of BR/AFBR's don't 
depend on Customer state.

The proposed document structure is as follows, with pros and cons for each 
section:
a) Stateful per transport connection (and also stateful per customer IPv6 
prefix)
   e.g. DS-lite with CGN
b) Stateful per customer IPv6 prefix (but Stateless per transport connection) 
   e.g. draft-cui-softwire-host-4over6-06
c) Stateless per customer IPv6 prefix (and also stateless per transport 
connection)
   - Hub-an-spoke    
     TBD
   - Direct CE-CE paths (mesh)
     . Encapsulation based 
       e.g. draft-murakami-softwire-4rd-00 alias
     . Translation based  
       e.g. draft-murakami-softwire-4v6-translation-00

Thoughts?

Regards,
RD
