Hi Remi, I was reading this draft and one sentence in the abstract drew my attention:
To cope with the IPv4 address shortage, customers can be assigned IPv4 addresses with restricted port sets. I think this means A+P at the customer level. I was under the impression that A+P use in 4rd was restricted to the CE level. As you know A+P has limitations, i.e. it can not be used on shared links such as 802.3 or 802.11. I am not sure if it is mentioned in the draft. I thought this feature was not in draft-despres-softwire-4rd-00 at least the above sentence is not in the abstract. Have you attended 2009 BoF on A+P? There the message was clear: do not use A+P at the customer level. What is the point of bringing it back? 4rd does it or does it not already help in IPv4 address shortage?
