yes. > Building on the assertion above…What is the expected behavior for a MAP CE > when it is RFC7598 DHCPv6 provisioned with multiple Rule Options (single > container/domain), F-flag not set on any rule, and a single End-user IPv6 > prefix? Is it acceptable for a MAP CE implementation to derive the BMR by > matching the End-user IPv6 prefix to the appropriate mapping rule (as > explicitly defined) while ignoring the non-matching rules given the F-flag > value 0? yes. if the F-flag was set, you'd end with multiple A+P routes for forwarding, but would only generate an IPv4 address from the End-user IPv6 prefix that matched.
