is dnsop tracking this?  should the wg take responsibility for it,
either as a wg document, if you like it and think it can be worked
to become product.  or as a "wg has reviewed this document and is
in doubt that it is a useful idea."  or whatever.

The notion that we're stuck at 13 servers is silly. For example:

   com NS a.gtld-servers.com
   com NS b.gtld-servers.com
   com NS c.gtld-servers.com
   com NS d.gtld-servers.com
   a.gtld-servers.com A ...
   a.gtld-servers.com A ...
   a.gtld-servers.com A ...
   a.gtld-servers.com A ...
   b.gtld-servers.com A ...
   b.gtld-servers.com A ...
   b.gtld-servers.com A ...
   b.gtld-servers.com A ...
   c.gtld-servers.com A ...
   c.gtld-servers.com A ...
   c.gtld-servers.com A ...
   c.gtld-servers.com A ...
   d.gtld-servers.com A ...
   d.gtld-servers.com A ...
   d.gtld-servers.com A ...
   d.gtld-servers.com A ...

Another way to spread the load is to vary the IP addresses.

I'd have to check my notes to be certain, but I think that the WG
discussed this in San Francisco and decided not to make it a WG doc.

This has been suggested before, and it's an appealing idea, but it
assumes that resolvers will try every address of every listed server.
RFC 1035 is, unfortunately, not entirely consistant about this: some
parts of the resolver description talk about putting all of the
addresses of all of the listed name servers into the SLIST, but others
talk about removing a "name server" (as opposed to one its addresses)
from the SLIST.  So there's an open question as to whether a resolver
should treat your example as 16 distinct addresses to try, or should
treat it as four name servers to try; one could find support for
either choice in the spec.

No. No widely deployed program tries _every_ address; there are always
limits. But if you try the 4x4 strategy (which still has quite a bit of
room in the UDP packet) then you'll see that the load is spread quite
evenly across 16 servers. The other strategy can't do better than 13.

not having been in San Francisco I do not know what the decision(oops?) was
based upon, but here are some comments and more detailed remarks below:

While I'd agree that it would be nice to have an updated version of RFC 1101,
i'm not sure I understand the problem the draft really tries to address.
From what i guess it does, the solution IMHO seems too complicated to work
in practice. Additional information regarding the motivation of this kind
of solution would be welcome.
As an example: Is the proposed algorithm intended to be processed from
inside the particular network or from the outside? If the latter, then why?

The proposed method should support the address of the 'first hop router',
but there's nothing in the draft that restricts the algorithm to this
problem domain. It's broad enough to be applied to other services, which
is OK on the one hand, but on the other it means that here's another
approach to the service location problem. DNS is not really the best approach
to locally scoped service location.

So, it's not clear to me why the problem is tried to be solved via DNS in the
first place. For the algorithm to work, the asking system needs to contact a
resolver, i.e. it needs to know that system's address (unless link local name
resolution is used). Also, it needs an IP address and a working interface,
usually including a subnet mask (unless the local environment supports proxy
ARP). So, why does the system need to determine the/a router's address?
And even if it needs that address, why would it have to first find the
subnet mask? What about using DHCP?

Finally, due to the way the intermediate names are constructed, the
suggested algorithm would need too many additional zones, at least domain
names, including some, which can only be instantiated with cooperation
from upper level zones. IMHO this is affords too much interaction to be
used "out there".

So, finally, based on the information currently available I'd agree that the
draft not be adopted by the WG. An update of RFC 1101 would be interesting,
though.

Please find more detailed comments below (quoting from the draft).

If such host could be instructed to contact a particular resolver, why
can't it be told the address of it's router?

Is that "A" records? Otherwise I can't see what RFC 1035 does to answer
this particular question.

RFC 2317 doesn't need this extension, because in the case the prefix length
is less than 24, you'd just delegate and populate a separate zone per octet.
You'll cover a single "network" by multiple zones, but that doesn't matter.
And that practice pre-dates RFC 2317.

So, the problem is: ``given an IP address, find "the" first hop router for
that address''
Who is to ask that question? I guess it's the system itself, but then,
why would it be necessary to answer that question by means of DNS instead
of, say, DHCP?

>    networkdomainname = maskedoctet "." *( decimaloctet / maskedoctet ".")
>                         ".in-addr.arpa."

That should read "in-addr.arpa". The first "." is already provided by the
other rule elements. The last is unnecessary because domain names don't end
in dots.

>    decimaloctet = ( *1("1") DIGIT DIGIT ) /
>                    ( "2" ( "1" / "2" / "3" / "4" ) DIGIT ) /
>                    ( "2" "5" ( "1" / "2" /"3" / "4" / "5" ) )

An element covering a single DIGIT is missing, and this rule would allow a
leading zero in e.g. "00". Either the rule would have to be extended or
the restrictions could be dealt within a comment (see definition of
"IPv4-address-literal" in RFC 2821.

That's not a matter of the server's opinion. On the other hand, it's only
relevant if address records have to be associated with a name (i.e., it's
really a hostname). That's not the case in this draft, so "/" could be
used (but see below).

And that's not necessary there, see above.

Why doesn't the system know the subnet mask for this interface? Is it
supposed to be multihomed?

What does the term "in the past" mean in this context? Is the system
supposed to keep state across multiple invocations of this algorithm?

Obviously you need the cooperation of and interaction with the maintainer of
the /16 for this to work. That might even be an RIR!

>    192-18.15.10.in-addr.arpa.  IN  NS 10.15.192.50

The single NS RR per zone is due to brevity, I guess; but IP addresses
should not be used in the RDATA. It violates the protocol and although
the intention is almost obvious, errors like this are too easily copied.

The list is incomplete. 10.15.128/18 was further split into 10.15.128/19
an others, so you also need entries for "128-19.15.10.in-addr.arpa" and more.
So, the /16 reverse maintainer is again to be involved. I'd expect some
operational difficulties with this scheme. Instead one could try to make the
prefix part of the hierarchy, i.e. "/18.128.15.10.in-addr.arpa".
An APL RR might be more efficient than a large PTR RRSet.

Why are these owner names not reduced?

what i would most appreciate is one of
  o a statement by the wg that this is being taken on as a work item
  o a statement by the wg that this is NOT being taken on as a work
    item, but the wg has no problem with its publication as info
  o a statement by the wg that this should not be published for some
    stated set of reasons, or that it could be published but with a
    warning (text included).

Speaking as a wg participant:
This document only talks about IPv4 and address issues
that are key for IPv6 and are beeing addressed by the wg
in the general discussion on reverse DNS for IPv6.
Thus I would recommend against the publication of this document
in its current form.

Peter,
	Would this make more sense if I were to point out that
I screwed up the last edit of the last sentence of paragraph 1
in the Introduction.  It reads:

"It would be useful to have a standard mechanism for such
 a host to find the first-hop router(s)."

The implication is that a host would be using the method of the draft
 to look up information about itself.  This is incorrect.  Rather that
 sentence should be replaced by:

 "It may be necessary for a third party server in the network to
 request some service related to the host from the first-hop router(s) for
 that host.  It would be useful to have a standard mechanism for such a
 server to find the first-hop router(s)"

The application I'd originally written the draft to deal with was
identification of the first-hop router as the intercept access point
for Lawful Intercept ( wiretapping ).  The intention is *not* for
a host to use this method to discover anything, but rather for
*other* servers in the network to use this method to be able to
discover the IP address of the first-hop router(s) so that they may
request some service from the first-hop router(s) related to the host.
Some method of identifying the intercept access point is necessary
for Lawful Intercept.

Does the above change in language clear up some of the confusion?

The initial motivation for this draft was that I encountered some attempts
to use RFC 1101 to allow identification of the first-hop router(s) for a
host in order to request Lawful Intercept services ( wiretapping ) of the
host by the first-hop router(s).

Cooperation of the upstream zones will sometimes be necessary, but care
has been taken to limit the amount of cooperation needed.

See comment above about this being an error introduced in the most
recent edit.  This is *not* a method for a host to discover anything
about itself, but rather a method for other servers in the network to
discover the first-hop router(s) of a host.

I was mostly refering to RFC 1035 section 3.5 paragraphs 5,6, and 8.

You are correct RFC 2317 doesn't need this extension for it's application
because it is dealing with using PTR records to map from an
IP number to a hostname ( the hostname of that IP address ).

For my application I need to be able to cleanly delegate on non-octet
boundaries in aggregate.

Some other server in the network is asking this question, like a mediation
device seeking to start a tap on a host using the hosts first hop gateway.

Browsing lightly through the source for bind 8.3.0 it looks like
the rdata associated with ptr records is judged OK or not by ns_nameok
as being of context hostname_ctx, which causes it to drop through to
res_hnok, which checks the hostname in such a way as to allow allow
alphachar, digitchar, and hyphenchar, but not "/".  Perhaps I'm
misreading ( I only browsed lightly ), but it looks like there is some
potential for confusing bind 8.3 with RDATA for a PTR record that contains
a "/".  Would I rather use the "/" character?  Yes.  But I wasn't willing
to risk issues with DNS implementations over the issue.

Again, the host knows it's subnet, another server in the network needs to
look it up.  My fault for causing this confusion.

No.  In the past means as part of the same lookup process.  The resolution
of the IP address of the first-hop router for a host may span multiple DNS
lookups.  The algorithm *does* require maintaining state across multiple
DNS lookups, but not across multiple first-hop router resolutions.

Yes, you will need the cooperation of your upstream zone.  Care was taken
to minimize the number of entries the upstream DNS would need to provide,
and to limit the churn of those records.

You are correct that the single NS is for brevity.  You are correct that
I used the incorrect RDATA type for the NS record.  I will fix the error.

Actually... the list is not incomplete here ( although it is further on ).
The 10.15.128/19 and others are subnetted from the 10.15.128/18 and
therefore are *not* the concern of the owner of the 10.15/16.  The
10.15/16 doesn't need to know anything about the way the 10.15.128/18 is
subnetted, because any RR for that subnetting will be off of the
128-18.15.10.in-addr.arpa. shim domain.  You see this in the entry:

   128-18.15.10.in-addr.arpa. IN PTR 128-19.128-18.15.10.in-addr.arpa.

where the 10.15.128/19 subnet is represented by the
128-19.128-18.15.10.in-addr.arpa. domain name.

For reasons of brevity I did not show the RR for
128-19.128-18.15.10.in-addr.arpa. in entity B's DNS tables as it isn't
pursued further in the example.

> Why are these owner names not reduced?

The names aren't reduced because that would require more work on behalf
of the 10.15/16 owner.  162-23.15.10.in-addr.arpa. would require more
RR entries be made by the 10.15/16 owner.  As you've pointed out
( correctly ) this is likely to make them grumpy :)  That's why
the shim zone is used.  It also means that if the owner of the
10.15.128/18 owner changes their subnetting it makes no difference
in what the upstream provider needs in their DNS tables.

I put a fair bit of thought into reducing the number of RR entries the
upstream provider would need to provision, and into reducing the
need for the upstream provider to change those entries if the
subnetting of the delegated network changed.

In the current scheme, when an upstream provider delegates a network
downstream, they would have to create:

1		PTR record entry for the delegating network
		( 0-16.15.10.in-addr.arpa.  IN  PTR 128-18.15.10.in-addr.arpa. )
1 or more 	NS records for the shim domain
		( 128-18.15.10.in-addr.arpa.  IN  NS ns1.example.net )
0 or more 	glue records for the NS records

So delegating a network requires 1 + n + m  where n is the number of NS
for the shim domain and m is the number of needed glue records.

Thank you very much for taking the time to provide such a detailed
critique, it has been quite helpful.  Hopefully I've answered ( or
acknowledged ) your criticism adequately.  If not, let me know.

	For a purely US-only application, or for an application where the 
source country, target country, and all intervening countries have 
similar laws, I think that might potentially be a valid use.

	However, in the modern Internet, I don't think that really has 
much application.  I don't think anyone is about to do anything that 
would allow anyone else to request that their router provide 
arbitrary "lawful intercept" services for some unknown party in some 
other country.

	Who knows when this kind of information might be used for 
corporate or gov't espionage, or frequently and casually abused by 
people with the necessary access, who probably don't even have to be 
real law enforcement officers, regardless of how corrupt the police 
department may be?


	And if you can't get broad adoption of this sort of feature, then 
what possible use could it serve?


	I'm sorry.  Given what we've learned so far about this, I would 
argue most vehemently that we should do everything within our power 
to actively kill this proposal, and not just decide whether or not to 
passively fail to support it.

I seem to have miscommunicated.  I am in no way suggesting that a router
provide arbitrary "lawful intercept" services for some unknown
party in some other country.  Please see
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-baker-slem-architecture-01.txt

You may also find the previous thread on this draft informative:

	Okay, fair enough.  But if you want to get wide availability of 
this feature, you have to give people a reason to actively want to 
provide this information.

	Since many sites may not have fully secured their routers, if 
they identify the first hop router for each netblock they own, then 
there is the risk that people will make a stronger and more concerted 
attack on that router, perhaps trying to subvert or abuse features 
that may have been included and turned on by default.


	IMO, this is like revisiting the whole WKS idea all over again. 
In the early days of the Internet, that was good.  But in the modern 
days where publishing any additional information about your system 
may result in an increased security exposure, I just can't see 
something like this being broadly useful or widely adopted. 
Moreover, I see this opening up whole new cans of worms that I don't 
think we want to even think about.

True.  In the Lawful Intercept application there are legal requirements 
that the network owner provide wire tapping services ( usually when
presented with a warrant, your local laws may vary ).  This requirement 
can be fulfilled in a number of ways, but clearly service providers
would like to comply with legal requirements in the least expensive 
possible way.  Many of the mediation devices that provide the intelligence
behind doing the tapping will be supplied by third party vendors.  If 
these third party vendors must integrate their mediation devices separately
to the OSS system of each service provider to obtain information about 
the first-hop router(s) this could be quite expensive.  If the mediation
device vendors can integrate against a particular use of the existing 
DNS system, this should be much less expensive.  If it saves service
providers money, they will implement it.  If it doesn't they won't.  
Likewise, if other applications arise, if they are compelling to the parties
in a position to implement the draft it will be implemented, otherwise 
it won't.

This is a good point, and one that has been brought up before.  There 
are ways of controlling the distribution of RR from a particular edge 
network
if the network owner is concerned.  I also mentioned this issue in the 
Security Considerations section of the draft.

	Note that there are many facets to the term "expensive" in this 
context.  We can only address a small subset of them, and I believe 
that there are other factors which are dominant but on which we 
cannot have any impact.

	Not true.  At least, not entirely true.

	What you really need is a standard.  But that standard doesn't 
necessarily have to have anything whatsoever to do with the DNS. 
Until you can convince me that there is no other possible way that 
this issue can be addressed (other than using the DNS), you're going 
to have an uphill battle.

	Moreover, since we're talking about a mechanism that would be 
pretty much purely dictated by the US gov't, I think you would find 
very strong opposition to incorporating anything remotely related to 
it into an International standard protocol, such as the DNS.

	Sorry, I don't buy this for a moment.  There are way, way too 
many nameservers out there that are public recursive/caching 
nameservers which could be abused to provide this sort of information 
to external parties.

	Moreover, not only are these nameservers configured in such a way 
as to allow this information to escape, they are also vulnerable to 
cache pollution and poisoning, which could be far, far worse in the 
context of anyone actually depending on the information returned by 
these machines for law enforcement purposes, and where real lives 
could literally be on the line.


	You're talking about relying on a "security mechanism" that is 
leaky enough to allow entire galaxies to pass through, and probably 
even small universes.

	You've got to have something better that can't be simply blown 
out of the water by a single poorly set up nameserver, or a small 
collection of poorly set up nameservers.

	Of course, probably something like 99% of all nameservers are 
public recursive/caching and vulnerable to cache pollution/poisoning. 
Certainly, my own survey of the gTLD, ccTLD, and root nameservers 
indicates that over 50% of all the ccTLD, gTLD, and root nameservers 
are open public recursive/caching nameservers, affecting almost 80% 
of all the TLDs in the world (see 
<http://www.shub-internet.org/brad/papers/dnscomparison/>).  And 
these are supposedly the best-run nameservers in the world.  What is 
the rest of the world like?

Hi David

The agenda of dnsop looks good.
As you made this agenda, dnsop has to discuss 
DNS autoconfiguration scheme deeply with plenty time
at this meeting. Also I believe that dnsop should take 
some drafts as working item during this meeting.
Of course, we should make a consensus at dnsop WG.
Thanks and I look forward to meeting you and all attendees
on Monday.

Hi, DNSOP members! :-)
Beforehand, I'd like to summarize my talk for today's
discussion about DNS Discovery and Autoconfiguration.

I'll present IPv6 DNS autoconfiguration today
afternoon.
IPv6 DNS autoconfiguration consists of two functions;
a) RA-based DNS Discovery and b) Host DNS Name
Auto-Registration.
 
Through RA DNS option, IPv6 host can find out DNS
information, such as Recursive DNS Servers' addresses
and DNS Zone Suffix.
It is very simple and necessary mechanism, I think.
With the announced DNS zone suffix, IPv6 host can
generate its host DNS name based on its preferred
user-ID. Also, it can register its DNS name and IPv6
address with the announced DNS server, through DNS
dynamic update.
The registration is performed by the IPv6 host, not
another Registrar.
In my scheme, any unidentified host can register its
DNS information in advertised DNS server. To minimize
the damage of DNS dynamic update, I define a new flag,
AR (Auto-Registration), in Header section of DNS
dynamic update message.
This bit indicates that any host can add its AAAA/PTR
resource records in DNS server and modifiy or delete
only its resource records, not others' resource
records. Therefore, a little extension to DNS Dynamic
Update is necessary.
You can find my presentation material in the following
links;

http://www.adhoc.6ants.net/~paul/data/ietf57-dnsop-ipv6-ra-dns-autoconf-00.pdf


http://www.adhoc.6ants.net/~paul/data/ietf57-dnsop-ipv6-ra-dns-autoconf-00.ppt

I would like to know if DNS autoconfiguration should
consider both DNS discovery and Host DNS name
auto-registration or not, namely separate documents.
In today's talks, I hope, some drafts about DNS
autoconfiguration will be accepted as working items.
Thanks.

/Jaehoon (Paul)

Hi,

It's good to see a DNS discovery method for a statelessly autoconfiguring
network back on the table.

I think the two functions should be in separate documents.  It would be nice
to push through the DNS discovery method, and not have it dependent on the
registration aspect (which many hosts will not need).

It will be deeply discussed at today meeting.

So. two kinds of drafts will be discussed such as

1) IPv6 DNS Discovery aspect
2) IPv6 DNS Autoregistration aspect

Also above aspects can be merged into one document I guess.

Let's discuss at today meeting

I agree with Daniel's thought.
DNS Discovery and Auto-registration can be handled
either in a single document or two separate documents.
The important thing is to decide if RA-based approach
for DNS discovery is selected as dnsop item or not.
During the open discussion, I believe, it will be
decided. :-)

Autoconfiguration, as expected by IPv6 folds, is just impossible
that it is a pity that DNSOP WG is contaminated.

Autoconfiguration is easy on a single link isolated from the
Internet. But, that's all.

FWIW, my opinion on the subject;

DHCPv6-lite has been proposed as a means how to fix this problem.

My issue with DHCPv6-lite is that DHCPv6 spec is some 89 pages, and most 
options are some 5 (or more) pages more, each.

Even though DHCPv6-lite is only a subset of that, it still requires 
reading, understanding etc. a lot of it.  It's much more difficult to get 
the "big picture" of DHCPv6-lite this way.

Now, if we had specified DHCPv6 without address assignment (like I
suggested, but that's beside the point), and put all of the stateful stuff
("cruft") in a separate "extension" RFC, we'd be talking about an entirely
different issue.

I was a very simple to implement, robust mechanism that's easy to 
understand.  Reading 20 selected pieces of a large document fills that 
requirement, IMHO.

I want a spec which is simple and clear, and less than 15-20 pages long.

 mind, I am very concerned w/ the goofy IPR/Note Well restrictions,
 so posting/participating is -very- infrequent.  but to pose a query
 to the assembled multitude:

 BIND, a common DNS implementation has the ability to apply access
 controls as a local policy matter as to who can and can not use
 a "recursive resolving nameserver" or what ever it was that Rob said 
 it was.  If one uses the RA/ND techniques, how does one expect to
 extract the local DNS policy information before handing out server
 info via the RA/ND method?

 this weakness was not touched on during Bob Hindons presentation
 and I did not stay for the rest of the sessions festivities

At least, DNS discovery based on RA is easy and
necessary in IPv6 wired and wireless networks
connected to the Internet, I believe. 
Especially, in the environments where IPv6 address
configuration is performed by IPv6 stateless address
autoconf, such as HMIPv6 and NEMO, RA-based DNS
Discovery is faster than DHCPv6-based DNS Discovery.
IMHO, both DHCPv6-based approach and RA-based approach
are necessary, depending on the situations, just like
IPv6 address autoconfiguration.

That would certainly be nice, but I don't think we should base our decision
on the length of the specifications for the proposed solutions ;-)

Benefits of the RA approach I can see are:

 o no need to implement DHCP clients in all hosts
	- this could be important for very simple network devices
 o no need to solicit data explicitly
	- hosts will either hear an RA with the relevant data, or send an RS
and get the name server details as part of the RA response. I don't support
the idea of an 'active' mode whereby hosts can explictly request the DNS
data. If the router(s) is/are configured with the name server data and are
configured to advertise it then they will do so. Explicit requests only make
sense if we anticipate explicit requests for other types of data, and I
think this should be absolutely out-of-scope.

   o no need to run DHCP clients in all scenarios
        - I certainly would not have any need to run DHCPv6(lite) on IETF 
WLAN, discovering the recursive DNS is just enough.

If you roam a *lot* e.g. with a PDA and use Mobile IPv6, you may not 
desire all that many functions from your care-of networks.

I'm not sure I'm 100% sure what's best myself, but there is one advantage 
to the "active" model (it seems): it may be easier to handle if your RA/RS 
processing happends in the kernel, but processing DNS info (including 
rewriting /etc/resolv.conf) would have to be in the userland.

Having both mechanisms could work: if we assume that routers configured to
advertise recursive name server data will always do so when they send an RA
(i.e. there is no explicit request mechanism other than standard RS) then if
a node doesn't get the recursive name server data when it receives an RA, it
can infer it needs to do DHCPv6(lite).

Moreover, we are all free to (try to) feed our clients/customers garbage
if we want.

I'm not guaranteeing you'd get popular by doing so, but that's another 
issue.

IMHO, the RA and DHCPv6 approaches are not hostile,
but complentary each other. It is important that IPv6
basic protocol has the complete autoconfiguration,
including DNS discovery.
It is the time for us to decide RA-based DNS discovery
as working item. 
Four authors (Jaehoon, Daniel, Syam and Luc) agreed
that a united draft about RA-based DNS Discovery
should be published. If DNSOP wg allows our proposal,
we'll write a draft together.
How about?

Someone is configuring the routers to advertise this information.

If it's configured manually, it becomes the responsibility of the 
configurer to ensure this.

If it's configured automatically, it becomes the responsibility if the 
party who's configuring the source where the router automatically finds 
this information (e.g. DHCPv6 lite) to see that it's OK.

The issue is recursive.

Please make sure that the main issue of bob's presentation was not
registration but "IPv6 DNS Discovery"

Hi folks

At the yesterday dnsop meeting, we had a time for discussion 
of " IPv6 DNS Discovery based on ND", but we didn't decide
any definitely consensus at all.

We (Luc,Paul,Syam, and Daniel) will merge our related draft into
one draft which will be focused on IPv6 DNS Discovery not autoregistration
, since IPv6 autoregistration is not mature state at this time.

I believe this approach is not duplicated method with DHCPv6. As bob's presentation,
it was not IPv6 Stateless Autoconfiguration without IPv6 DNS Discovery.

Please be sure, Even if DHCPv6 has a prefix option, we still use a RA option for IPv6 Prefix.

IPv6 must have all required parameters for autoconfiguration including IPv6 DNS Discovery option.

During yesterday's discussion on DNS discovery
we somehow jumped the gun a bit quickly and moved
to solution space without really understanding the requirements.
Let me step back a little and try to reverse engineer those!

A)  Rob, in his introduction, pointed at a number a functions a node 
could
do when we talk about DNS autoconfiguration. Basically those are:
1- finding a recursive name server
2- finding a search list
3- updating the forward DNS tree
4- updating the reverse DNS tree
5- finding a NTP source for DNSsec signature verification

 From this list, it seems to me that 1- is critical, 5- is important
and we could leave without 2, 3, and 5, at least for now.
Those are important (except maybe 2) but can be taken care of 
separately.
However, it is not clear to me that 1- and 5- need to be addressed by 
the same
mechanism. That is, if there is already a mechanism to broadcast NTP
timestamp on the local network, this may be a good enough solution.

B) The second major element to study is the desired/required mode of 
operation.
This autoconfiguration is happening mostly at boot time. I'm a bit 
concerned
about the effects of self synchronization in the network and what happen
when a very large flat L2 network power cycle.
In IPv6 neighbor discovery, there is provision for that, with 
unsolicited router advertisements
that are multicast to all nodes on the link.
If we think that DNS discovery (for lack of a better term) is a 
critical part of stateless autoconfiguration,
it may makes sense for it to have the same properties as  the rest  of 
the story, e.g. prefix discovery.

C) A third element in this discussion is the compatibility with the 
IPv4 model.
I agree it is highly desirable to have the same conceptual 
_administration_ model in IPv6, that
is the information is configured by the network manager in a 
centralized repository and it
then gets propagated to the nodes. This can actually be achieved 
regardless of the
format of the bit pattern on the wire.

	- Alain.

 yes, yes... thats not the question.  the question is, how do the
 good folks who propose this method fo DNS discovery expect to 
 find/extract the local DNS policy information to try and ensure
 garbage is not handed out?

In the same way that they find/extract the local DNS policy information
before configuring existing DHCP services I expect.

Before IPv6 wg is closed, we need to finish IPv6
stateless autoconfiguration, including DNS discovery.
Many of IPv6 guys really want to see RA-based DNS
discovery used.
DHCPv6 and RA-based solutions depend on the selection
of network managers or users. Anyone of them is not
absolute, I think.
As Bob said yesterday, we should finish the recursive
argument about DNS discovery and complete the
stateless autoconfiguration.
Now, I think, DNSOP chairmen should decide if RA-based
approach has to be working item or not.
I would like to see DNSOP chairmen's opinion.

Nothing; we're in full agreement here.

(compare: routers can use RA's to advertise prefixes they aren't 
configured to route, but that's no problem IMHO.)

Agreed.  I think Mat and Pekka's points are also well made.

There was certainly a significant hum in this direction in the meeting.
Both DNS Lite and RA discovery methods can exist; each has an application 
domain/scope.

This also links back to the SFO meeting where the WG discussed how answers 
from (potentially) different DHCP and DHCPv6 servers would be handled in a 
dual stack environment.   

But that's the point now - IPv6 stateless DNS discovery is not perceived as 
"missing" because most people use IPv6 in a dual-stack network where IPv4 
DNS resolver info is issued over IPv4 transport by DHCP(v4).  As Mat says,
in new LCNA devices, isn't DHCP(Lite) client support merely for DNS discovery
a little unecessary?   Sure, not all LCNA's will need to resolve DNS, but 
many will.

OK. What's wrong if microsoft run DNS servers at

	yourdomain.microsoft.com

and preconfigure keys in their OS for dynamic update?

Well known anycast addresses are more than enough for 1.

You should be joking. Where is security?

Not sure I understand how your comment is related to this discussion....

I agree it works (I wrote the draft ;-). The other suggested solution 
works too.

You need a reasonable clock to verify DNSsec signature.

i may have a conflict during today's meeting in which case i'd like to
present my recent thoughts about respsize here and hope that kato or
others will represent them in real time.  these issues are highly topical
since they will drive the policies by which IANA will add, or not add,
AAAA RRs for root and tld servers.

---

in the event where a delegation response is going to be truncated, it
is desireable that glue of the appropriate type be added preferentially.
if the query arrived by IPv4, then A RRs ought to be added first; if
the query arrived by IPv6, then AAAA RRs ought to be added first.

this assumes that a dns client will wish to use the same protocol for
reaching the designated servers as it used to reach the delegating
server.

to prevent pathological starvation, at most one glue rrset of each type
should be present even in a truncated response, unless the rrsets
are such that the smallest rrset of each glue type would not fit.

since truncation must be on rrset boundaries, smaller rrsets should be
added before larger ones.  if the smallest rrset of any type is still
too large to fit, then the delegation response's additional data section
will be empty.

---

(before anybody suggests that we add a "glue order" option in EDNS, keep
in mind that when EDNS is available, truncation will only rarely occur,
even with both kinds of glue records and full dns security signatures.
this entire discussion has to do with imputing the best interests of dns
clients who lack the ability to express either preference or capability.)

	can't we provide like "one A glue, then one AAAA glue, then A glue,

We have to go to the right direction 
"IPv6 DNS Discovery based on RA or ND"

How long will this discussion last at this WG ?

	who decided that this is the right direction?  it is yet to be decided.
	the above statement is not acceptable.

	to be clear, in the ietf there are multiple efforts on "service
	discovery" mechansisms, including DHCP, piggyback on RA, srvloc,
	DNS SRV record and a lot more.  basically we are in confusion state.
	draft-ietf-ipngwg-dns-discovery-analysis-00.txt tried to clear up the

Since there's been a bit of mailing list discussion based on my
presentation yesteday, here are the slides.

%page

Step back a moment

	Discovery is one aspect of autoconfiguration

	What data does a DNS-consuming node need when it boots?

	All DNS consumers need addresses of some name servers
		Usually recursive name servers
		But maybe this is an iterative resolver

	Other things that some DNS consumers might want
		What search path should I use?
		What's my own name?
		How do I publish my name->address data?
		How do I publish my address->name data?
		How do I verify signed DNS data?

	"DNS Discovery" == finding recursive name servers
%page

Security model

	Issues differ greatly depending on:
		Which data one is trying to autoconfigure
		Degree to which one trusts the local network

	Recursive name server addresses ("DNS discovery")
		Issues fairly well understood, we think
		Consumer is at name server's mercy, unless consumer checks sigs
		If consumer does check sigs, it needs:
			DNSSEC policy
			DNSSEC public key(s)
			A clock (may require (S)NTP, more key(s), ...)

	Search path: Danger, Will Robinson
		Controls what questions a node asks

	"What's my name?"
		See "search path", above
		Default kerberos realm too
		Other effects unknown and system dependent, but probably scary
%page

Security model (2)

	"How do I publish my name->address data?"
		Relatively well understood (DNS UPDATE)
		Requires more policy and keying material
		Autoconfig adds no obvious new vulnerabilities

	"How do I publish my address->name data?"
		Superficially similar to name->address, but
		Very weak trust model for address ownership

	"How do I verify signed DNS data?"
		Fairly well understood
		Issues already discussed, above

I found this unnecessarily confusing. Can we please reserve the word
``truncation'' for the TC bit? See RFC 1035.

There are three separate issues:

   (1) the strategy for adding delegation records;
   (2) the strategy for adding AU+AR to authoritative responses; and
   (3) how to handle truncation.

For example, with tinydns,

   (1) NS and corresponding A glue is always added to delegations;
   (2) AU (or AU+AR) is added to authoritative answers only if the
       entire AU (or AU+AR) ends before the 512-byte boundary; and
   (3) if truncation is required, all records are eliminated.

As for mixing A and AAAA in delegations, I don't understand the benefit
to having both in the first place. If a child server provides only one
protocol, there's no decision for the parent to make. If a child server
provides both protocols, and the query to the parent was made through
IPv4, I don't understand the point of including AAAA; and vice versa.

	NTP can be spoofed.  How can you know whether or not to trust it? 
IMO, that requires some configuration -- either automatic, or manual. 
If the latter, you look in a file that tells you which servers to 
trust.  Even that can be spoofed, unless you use cryptographic 
authentication.  If automatic, then you have to have a way to get 
authoritative configuration information that can be trusted.

	This can be a bit of a chicken-vs-egg problem.  DHCP may or may 
not be the best way to hand out NTP configuration information, but it 
would seem to be one reasonable approach.  I'm sure there are others.


	However, before going too far down the NTP rathole in a WG 
supposedly devoted to the DNS, I would encourage involving other 
contributors from ntp.org in this discussion, especially Harlan 
Stenn.  I'm a contributor myself, but I just run the mail system and 
the mailing lists, and I'm not that intimate with the internals of 
NTP itself.

this assumes that the transport available between the dns resolver and
the dns server is correlated to the transport between the application
client and the server.  i am not sure this assumption holds.

I am fairly certain that there are cases in which we expect this
assumption not to hold, since we expect to use dual-stack recursive
name servers to avoid the namespace fragmentation problems described
in draft-ietf-dnsop-ipv6-transport-guidelines-00.txt.

No. The issue is delegations, particularly big delegations such as the
DNS root servers' delegation of .com to 13 different DNS servers. Both
levels are DNS; there isn't any ``application client'' here.

Suppose that a .com DNS server has both A and AAAA. I don't see why the
root servers would ever want to provide both addresses. Specifically:

   * If the query shows up through IPv4, why bother sending the .com
     server's AAAA address? Obviously the resolver is capable of
     reaching the A address.

   * If the query shows up through IPv6, why bother sending the .com
     server's A address? Obviously the resolver is capable of reaching
     the AAAA address.

Vixie was suggesting omitting AAAA's past the 512-byte limit in the
first case, and A's past the 512-byte limit in the second, but I don't
see any use of the extra records even if they all fit into 512 bytes.

I have circulated this among several people yesterday and it may be time
to bring this to the list.

Our community is basically divided in two camps,
the "conservatives", coming from v4 where the operational practice
is to use DHCP for DNS discovery and would like to operate the same way
for v6, and the "liberals", coming from v6 where the autoconfiguration
story is build on Neighbor Discovery and RA/RS, and who would like to
expand on this.

As I explain in an earlier mail, the differences in the mode of 
operation are:
- DHCPv6 can also pass the address of the NTP server
- RA/RS have the unsolicited multicast provision that helps save 
bandwidth
   when a large number of nodes are autoconfiguring at the same time.

The compromise solution I'd like to bring forward is to optionally 
piggy back the
unsolicited multicast mode to DHCPv6-lite.

More specifically, this would work the following way:

At boot time, the client wait a bit (random 0..MAX1 seconds) and listen
to unsolicited DHCPv6 DNS recursive server advertisements sent to the
link-local-all-node multicast address.
If noting comes, it send a DHCPv6 request.
The DHCPv6 server answer to the unicast address of the requester
and, if configured to do so (this would be optional), send the same 
thing to the
link-local-all-node multicast address.
Those multicast responses will be rate limited by the server,
that is, if a second request come within MAX2 seconds,
only the unicast answer will be sent.

I'm sure there would be many details to work out.

	- Alain.

?... why do you defense a liberty of IPv6 at this point ?

As you know, IPv6 is already there

If IPv6 node has dhcp functions, it can also make use of this procedure
without piggy back the unsolicited multicast mode of dhcp.

>I'm sure there would be many details to work out.

do you want to make a complexity ?

Please be sure that both DHCP and RA discovery method have each application domain/scope.
In addition, if we don't have DNS discovery into RA, IPv6 can not provide full
stateless autoconfiguration. This option is very very simple.
If IPv6 host don't have dhcp functions, what is the possible solutions ? 
manually configure ?

To replicate only the functionality of the RA/ND approach, the DHCP client
required is very minimal indeed.

I think the following approach probably will yield a
better method for DNS Discovery.

As DHCP may not be available in all netwokrs
especially in small networks like Home Networks,
the nodes first should try to get the DNS Resolver
addresses from the RA messages, which will be inline
with the IPv6 Autoconfiguration. If RA messages does
not contain this information, and if DHCPv6 is availbe

the nodes can use DHCPv6 to get the DNS Resolver
Addresses. In case DHCP is also not available, Well
Known Local/Anycast Addresses can be used as Default
DNS Resolvers. Hovewer the draft 
'draft-ietf-ipv6-dns-discovery-xx.txt' 
defines Well Known Site Local Addreses may need to be 
modified as site local addresses are being deprecated.

Thank you,
Syam

An IPv6 host needs very minimal dhcp functions to request and receive
recursive name server configuration data.

You're making a false assumption that the transport protocol used for
querying the server matters to the end client. An authoritative server
could well be answering queries over IPv4 from a dual-stack full
service resolver that's serving IPv6-only stub resolvers. Those end
clients will not be happy to get A records instead of AAAAs. Or that
full service resolver may have a (policy) preference for querying over
IPv6 and only uses IPv4 as a last resort. These scenarios may well be
somewhat hypothetical but they are not unreasonable or unrealistic.

Thanks for your good proposal.
As I said before, I believe, the RA-based and
DHCP-based DNS discoveries are complementaty each
other. One of them can not be the best. Just like IPv6
address autoconfiguration scenario, the RA-based and
DHCP-based DNS discoveries can be used very well
together. I think most of IPv6 hosts will have DHCPv6
client. Unless DNS information is piggybacked, IPv6
host just conforms to DHCPv6 procedure for DNS
discovery.
The approach of DHCP-lite announcing DNS information
overrides IPv6 RA advertisement. IMHO, it is enough
for one of RA and DHCP to announce IPv6 prefix and DNS
information.

In wireless networks, such as HMIPv6 and NEMO, MAP or
MR announce IPv6 prefix information periodically. If
piggybacking DNS information in RA, there is no need
of additional delay for finding out DNS information.
Your proposal complicates DHCP operation and usage, I
think.
DHCP is not almighty in all environments, and just one
of many solutions.
I am also one of non-english speakers.
Thanks, Alain.

I agree, we should first have a clear consensus on requirements for "DNS discovery".

> A)  Rob, in his introduction, pointed at a number a functions a node
> could

I agree that point 1- is the most critical requirement for basic services. It's not clear for me how to evaluate criticity of other points.

> B) The second major element to study is the desired/required mode of
> operation.

As far as I know, 3 solutions have been documented:
- well-known site-local IPv6 addresses... IMHO, that solution depends on decision of ipv6 wg upon local addresses
- DHCPv6 (+ DHCP-lite)
- RA-based solution
Some guys had also spoken about SLPv6. But at last meeting, Bob pointed that a service discovery protocol should not be used for that (no one answered to that).

As DNS is a critical service between "applications world" and "IP layer world", we might be careful on consequences. From application point of view, we might ask in the future to extende that solution to other type of services (NTP, ...). In that way, RA-based solution might not be the good solution, because I do think that RA must not be extended to any sort of service discovery. Any idea about that?

> C) A third element in this discussion is the compatibility with the
> IPv4 model.

I agree that we need an _administrative model_ in IPv6. But I don't really understand that within that discussion. Do you have in mind O-bit et al? Anyway could you clarify?

Alain;

Before trying to compromise, can you, at least, clarify
your requirement?

> - DHCPv6 can also pass the address of the NTP server

I think NTP configuration is obsoleted.

=> all the crypto things I know are valid only at limited amount
of time. In fact the military measure of a secret is the duration
one can expect it will remain secret. So as soon as there is
some kind of security involved in the network (and it should be :-),
it is critical to have a good and secure source of the current date.
The protocol which provides this is NTP: it synchronizes all boxes
(i.e., all boxes have the same time) and with a good reference
it can synchronize all boxes to the right time.

Therefore NTP is a part of the initial service discovery stuff (IMHO
this has nothing to do in the dnsop WG as it can't be restricted to
DNS server discovery, but the IPv6 WG already tried to solve the whole
issue and failed...).

PS: NTP is very useful for management too, an argument I used many
(~10) years ago when I was at the head of the RIPE DNS TF to
recommend to make all routers (the active equipments at this time)
NTP clients or peers.
PPS: Obviously there is a bootstrap problem with secure NTP.

From application point of view, we might ask in the future to extende that solution to other type of services (NTP, ...). In that way, RA-based solution might not be the good solution, because I do think that RA must not be extended to any sort of service discovery. Any idea about that?

So where do you draw the boundary between "network device autoconfiguration" 
and "service discovery".   For IPv4, you (manually or via DHCP) configure
IPv4 address, netmask, gateway and DNS resolver(s) as the "basic" four 
components to be able to get up and running.   In IPv6, when using stateless 
autoconfiguration, the RA mechanism takes care of the first three (because 
the stateless mechanism implies the /64 "netmask"), but the DNS resolver 
address(es) cannot be learnt (although I believe WinXP implements the 
well-known site local discovery method).

So an interesting question is what we mean by "stateless autoconfiguration".
I think this term is causing some of the religion in the discussion :)   It 
seems that probably mean "autoconfiguration without servers (i.e. DHCPv6)",
since there would have to be state (pre-configuration) in the router (the 
prefix configuration).   The RA camp seems to want the routers to be able to
issue DNS resolver information, not a separate full-blown DHCPv6 server.

But it's not that clear cut as, for example, my home DSL router includes
a DHCP server (as well my DNS server and print server and other stuff).
The functionality is combined, all in a very cheap (<100 Euro) commodity box.

So are we really concerned as to whether we need a separate DHCPv6 server on
our network (and the overhead of that in ad-hoc networks), or that we would 
like a router to be able to provide DNS resolver information on link (such that
we can plumb networks without needing a separate DHCPv6 box)?   If the latter, 
then does it matter if the router does that via RA piggybacks or DHCPv6 Lite?
What is the real difference in implementation cost?

Of course the mode of operation is also an interesting issue, but it's possible
for DHCPv6(Lite) to have an unsolicited response mode added, if that is felt
to be important.

Something has to configure the prefix information to the router, likewise
the DNS information has to be configured.  I don't think we've discusse that
much, but distributing the DNS resolver information to multiple routers rather
than one (or a small number of) DHCPv6 servers may require more thought.  But
in my home network, it'll all be in my DSL router :)

   How many of the crypto things you know can be autoconfigured?
   
=> my answer to the proper question "how many of devices which
can be autoconfigured and don't use any crypto thing I know?"
is none for recent (i.e., in this century) devices.

   So, it should be noted that root keys must also be periodically
   configured.
   
=> do it should be noted than nothing may stay valid forever, even
root keys.

No.

We're talking about delegations. A parent DNS server, specifically one
of the root DNS servers, provides child DNS server addresses, such as
the .com DNS server addresses.

The program using the .com DNS server addresses is the same DNS resolver
that was talking to the root DNS server. Why is it useful for this DNS
resolver to receive _both_ an A record and an AAAA record for a single
.com DNS server? If it reached the root DNS server through IPv4, for
example, then why would it want AAAA records for the .com DNS servers?

Because this .com server has NO WAY of knowing if the querying server
has a preference for IPv6 or IPv4 resource records. Or which of these
is "better" for the resolving server. [And, by implication, that
resolving server's clients which could include forwarding name
servers.] My earlier mail why explained your assumption about using
the query's transport protocol to determine this was flawed. I gave
two counter examples: four if you swap the IPv6 issues for IPv4 and
vice versa. Others have made the same point. I'm sorry if you are
unable to understand this.

How much a solution is , is only one side of the issue, not all -it depends so much of the market ;+). I do not discuss that.

Some questions must still be investigated so that I could have a better opinion. 
- Can DHCP-lite work on the same link were there is a DHCP server, or a DHCP-relay?
- is DHCLP-lite with multicast extension is still DHCP? ;+)
- is RA-base solution actually much easier to implement? 
- How RA-based wil be implement, within the kernel, as a separate daemon?

Why do you think the resolver moving from parent to child is the *only* 
one using that information ?

Yours is an improper question.

Using autoconfiguration on non crypt things is fine.

However, devices using crypto thing is secure only if they do not use
autoconfiguration of the crypto thing.

Answer the question.

That's how security needs manual configuration.

| 
|    * If the query shows up through IPv6, why bother sending the .com
|      server's A address? Obviously the resolver is capable of reaching

==> You know that the second scenario cannot happen today unless the client
can get some IPv6 address for the root server. As far as I know, even
if some root servers already run IPv6, their IPv6 address is not
present in the root zone. Putting AAAA glue records in the root zone
for .COM or whatever TLD is the only way to let iterative resolvers
reach TLD servers in both IPv4 and IPv6 as soon as they receive
referrals from root servers. Maybe you want to read the IESG
recommendation for RC Editor to add explicitely the note below to
RFC1886bis (becoming DS) in order to make things very clear:

"
RFC Editor note:

In the Abstract please change:
s/Domain Name System/Domain Name System (DNS)/
s/RFC1886/RFC 1886/

Please add this at the end of the Introduction section:
        The IP protocol version used for querying resource records is
        independent of the protocol version of the resource records; e.g.
        IPv4 transport can be used to query IPv6 records and vice versa.
"

In one word, the parent is not supposed to decide on behalf of the
client, which version of IP it has to use to reach the authoritative
nameservers for the child.

Hope this will help,

Mohsen.

  That's all you need *TODAY*.

  Given only those things, you are completely insecure. Anyone can spoof
your MAC address or IP address, anyone can feed to bad data, or spoof the
MAC of the nexthop router, etc.

  If you just want IPv6 to be IPv4-with-bigger-addresses, then fine, add
DNS info to the RA. But, NATv4 works just as well for many people.

  While some people feel that the location of the nearest print server isn't
critical information - it *is* if you run a print shop, and I arrive in
to print things. In fact, the location of the print server might be more
important than the gateway!!!! It is all in the eye of the beholder.

  If you want to be useful, then we need all of the other things that we
have been doing with DHCPv4 for years to be available reliably. This means
many other things too.

  Put the address of the DHCPv6 server in the RA, if you want to put anything
in the RA. I know that there are ways to address it otherwise as well.

   Yours is an improper question.
   
=> my argument is that autoconfigurated devices use crypto things,
crypto things need a time service, then the question of autoconfiguration
of time service is sound. I didn't speak about autoconfiguration of
crypto things (i.e., this is a different problem: it should be
discussed in another threat and likely in another list).

   Using autoconfiguration on non crypt things is fine.
   
   However, devices using crypto thing is secure only if they do not use
   autoconfiguration of the crypto thing.
   
=> no, my argument is they are not secure if they can't access to a
time service.

In this DNSOP meeting, RA-based DNS discovery has been
being discussed in comparison with DHCP-based DNS
discovery. As it seems that this discussion is related
to IPv6 wg, I send this issue in CC to IPv6 wg for
listening to IPv6 members' liberal opinions and
comments.

For consistent and time-saving autoconfiguration, I
think, we need to adopt one of two alternatives in
sequence (stateless and stateful approaches). In IPv4
domain, DHCP is enough for the autoconfiguration. But,
in IPv6, we introduced stateless autoconfiguration.
Like Tim's opinion, DNS information is missing in the
current IPv6 stateless autoconfiguration. Of course,
DHCPv6 is a good solution. However, in order to get
only DNS information, it is so limited direction for
all kinds of IPv6 networks, such as home network,
HMIPv6, NEMO and MANET connected to the Internet, to
adopt only DHCPv6-based DNS discovery. 
IMHO, RA-based DNS discovery is a really really good
companion with DHCP approach, not enemy or competitor.

Just in order to announce DNS information, isn't to
run  DHCPv6(Lite) overactive? RA-piggyback
announcement of DNS information with prefix
information is efficient in the respect of the amount
of announced traffic.

Right, let's discuss further.

In current Cisco router, we configure the addresses of
recursive DNS servers for its own name resolution.
Therefore, the DNS servers' addresses have already
been configured. We only have to use the information
so as to announce DNS information through RA message.
How about?

If this tradeoff proposal can help us move quickly to an operational
solution which maybe quickly implemented and shipped in OS's, I fully
support it.

My concern is that while having this endless religious debate (thanks
Tim for the word), people who want to deploy real and credible IPv6
networks still lack this critical feature (recursive name server
discovery).

And that is one reason, among many, why ND is hopeless.

To make IPv6 deployable, we should remove ND ASAP.

Wrong. It is insecure.

Do you have some other use for the name a.gtld-servers.net?

Obviously there's an issue if you (1) want to provide both A and AAAA
records for your HTTP server, and (2) use the same name for your HTTP
server and your DNS server. But #2 is an administrative error.

Sure. However, if the foo.com server has _both_ v4 and v6 addresses,
then you could also reach it through v4. Furthermore, the .com server
knows this, because you reached the .com server through v4.

So why should the .com DNS server bother giving you _both_ v4 and v6
addresses for the foo.com DNS server? What exactly is the benefit that
outweighs the cost of building and sending larger packets?

Let me emphasize again that we're talking about DNS server addresses in
delegations, not about HTTP server addresses.

> As far as I know, even if some root servers already run IPv6, their

The resolver is configured with the addresses of the root DNS servers,
or of servers that know the root addresses. There are two possibilities
at this point:

   (1) The resolver can't reach IPv6 addresses. This means that the
       initial addresses have to be A---otherwise they _do not work_.
       Similarly, all the subsequent DNS server addresses used by that
       resolver have to be A---otherwise they _do not work_.

   (2) The resolver can reach IPv6 addresses. In this case, if a DNS
       server supports both IPv4 and IPv6, why would the resolver be
       interested in the DNS server's IPv4 address? What's the benefit?

The rule I'm suggesting is ``In a delegation, if a child server has only
A records, provide those records; if it has only AAAA records, provide
those records; if it has both, provide A to clients that asked through
IPv4, AAAA to clients that asked through IPv6.''

The records that I'm eliminating are the same ones that Vixie was
talking about eliminating. The difference is that he'd provide them if
they fit into 512 bytes (which they don't, for the high-level servers),
while I would never provide them. The existing AAAA protocol would seem
to require them in all circumstances (forcing truncation and TCP for the
high-level servers), which is clearly a mistake.

Let me emphasize that we are talking about _delegations_. These are DNS
server addresses used by the resolver. They are not web server addresses
passed through the resolver to browsers with varying connectivity.

Hi IPv6 members.

As it seems that the discussion of DNS discovery is related to IPv6 wg, I send 
this issue to IPv6 wg for listening to IPv6 members' liberal opinions and
comments.

In this DNSOP meeting and mailing list, RA-based DNS discovery has been
being discussed in comparison with DHCP-based DNS discovery.
You can find the mails related to this issue in the following link;
 http://www.cafax.se/dnsop/maillist/2003-07/maillist.html

For consistent and time-saving autoconfiguration, I think, we need to adopt one of
two alternatives in sequence (stateless and stateful approaches). In IPv4 domain, 
DHCP is enough for the autoconfiguration. But, in IPv6, we introduced 
stateless autoconfiguration.

Like Tim's opinion, DNS information is missing in the current IPv6 stateless autoconfiguration. 
Of course, DHCPv6 is a good solution. However, in order to get only DNS information, 
it is so limited direction for all kinds of IPv6 networks, such as home network, 
HMIPv6, NEMO and MANET connected to the Internet, to adopt only DHCPv6-based 
DNS discovery. IMHO, RA-based DNS discovery is a really really good companion 
with DHCP approach, not enemy or competitor.

Just in order to announce DNS information, isn't to run  DHCPv6(Lite) overactive? 
RA-piggyback announcement of DNS information with prefix information is efficient 
in the respect of the amount of announced traffic.

In current Cisco router, we configure the addresses of recursive DNS servers for its own name resolution.
Therefore, the DNS servers' addresses have already been configured. We only have to use the information
so as to announce DNS information through RA message.

I think DNS discovery is indispensible in IPv6, as you know. RA camp including me continues to appeal
the need of RA-based DNS discovery for IPv6 working more flexibly even in the environment 
where there is no DHCPv6.
If many of IPv6 members think that RA-based DNS discovery is not necessary, there may be no reason to
discuss any more and the RA-based DNS discovery should not be suggested forever.

I wait for your liberal and frank criticism or opinions.

/Jaehoon Paul

You're assuming that if you reach one IPv4 address, you can reach all.

You're assuming that if you reach one IPv6 address, you can reach all (, 
and that you have no use for IPv4 addresses for fallback).

Also, assume the resolver is caching data.  Someone else with different 
transport protocol capabilities asks the resolver about the addresses of 
these servers -- and get a partial response.

Building assumptions like these doesn't sound like the way to ensure the 
robustness of DNS.

That's Okay.
I appreciate your previous work related to DNS discovery until now.
I really hope we'll solve the issue successfully.
Thanks.

You could do the very same thing using DHCPv6-lite. The information is 
there,
it is flowing from the router to the node downstream, in a push or pull 
mode.
It really is just a question of packet format. Using the multicast 
extension
to DHCPv6-lite I suggested few days ago, there isn't really any 
difference
between the 2 approaches with regard to pass the DNS recursive server 
address.
The advantage of the DHCPv6 approach is that you can pass other 
configuration
information, like the address of the NTP server.

The RA camp keeps making the false assumption that using the 
DHCPv6-lite protocol to do this
requires to have a big-iron DHCPv6 server on the network. This simply 
is not true.

1) spec complexity
2) implementation complexity (there _may_ not be that huge a difference 
here, but probably some)

So what? Let's focus on what actually works from the user's perspective,
not on religious concepts such as ``partial responses.'' Can you give a
concrete example showing how the user would encounter a failure?

To forestall irrelevant examples, let me emphasize once again that we're
talking about DNS server addresses, not HTTP server addresses.

> You're assuming that if you reach one IPv4 address, you can reach all.

Ever heard of ``global addressing''? Right now, you aren't on the
Internet if you can't reach the entire public IPv4 address space. In the
future, if everyone with a public IPv4 address acquires a public IPv6
address, you'll be able to deploy a site that doesn't have any IPv4

I agree with this view.  I think we should proceed with the RA approach for 
learning the address(es) of the recursive DNS servers and optionally a 
search list.

I think the RA approach has advantages in environments where a DNS (-lite) 
two packet exchanges would be a problem.  I suspect that in many cases the 
addresses of the recursive DNS servers could be in the same RA message that 
prefixes and other link information were contained.  This would be 
significant reduction in traffic as it would avoid any extra packets.

I think you are suggesting extending DHCPv6-lite to have all of the 
mechanisms that ND currently has for sending multicast advertisements.  I 
don't think this is quite a simple as you suggest.  This seems to me like a 
lot of extra complexity and changes DHCPv6-lite from what I understand to 
be is a "profile" on the DHCPv6 specification.   This would be either a new 
protocol or a non-trivial change to DHCPv6.  This doesn't seem like a good 
way to proceed to me.

This is exactly the kind of feature creep that bothers me about the RA 
dns discovery approach. The proponents' argument boils down to, "Well we 
have 3 things, so it'll be easy to add a 4th (resolver[s])." The logical 
progression of that is that if you're going to add the 4th anyway, it's 
not really useful without the 5th (search list), and now I've got 
everything else I need, can't I please have the 6th (widget) too? 
Please? Pretty please?

Speaking as a client system implementor, I can almost see situations 
where the RA approach for stateless autoconfiguration of IP mask and 
gateway would be useful. However, by feature creeping RA you're 
basically forcing me to implement two autoconfiguration methods for 
every client, because if RA becomes "just robust enough" there are going 
to be networks where there is no dhcp.

Speaking as a resolving name server/dhcp configurator, I can easily 
imagine situations where the routers are pointed at one set of resolving 
name servers, and I want the clients pointed at a different set. This 
increases the complexity of the RA approach one notch already, and I'm 
just shooting from the hip here. I'm sure others can think of more 
complex problems.

The dhcp(lite) mechanism already exists to do everything that the RA DNS 
discovery could ever imagine doing, plus lots more. It's a scalable 
solution with a known implementation path. I fear that further muddying 
of the water is detrimental to both the long term goal of robust IPv6 
networking, and the short term goal of encouraging IPv6 adoption and 
deployment.

So, the only reasonable requirement so far is, as Rob Austin
has seemingly presented (I was not at the meeting):

	remove configuration of recursive server addresses at
	installation

and attached memo is a, perhaps the best, solution.

Harmful complication caused by stateless/full autoconfiguration, false
security and site local scope are removed completely.

Abstract

   This memo describes how to make addresses of DNS servers
   preconfigured in clients.  Well known anycast addresses, which are
   assigned to DNS servers, should be preconfigured to resolvers of
   clients.

1. Introduction

   The requirement addressed by this memo is to eliminate configuration
   effort of DNS clients.

   This memo defines several IP addresses to be used as a well known
   anycast IP addresses of DNS servers.

   The addresses are intended to be preconfigured to client resolvers to
   reduce (or eliminate) initial configuration effort on clients.

   This memo also describes sever and client operations.

2. Server Operation

   To serve stub resolvers, preconfigured DNS servers MUST offer

INTERNET DRAFT     Preconfigured DNS Server Addresses          July 2003


   recursive service if requested by their clients.

   While it should be assumed that the clients have no information to
   validate their identities to the servers, the servers may still limit
   their services to valid clients based on some (autoconfigured)
   property of the clients. For (perhaps the only) example, the servers
   may reply to requests from clients with certain ranges of IP
   addresses only.

3. Client Operation

   Clients SHOULD behave as a stub resolver forwarding queries to any of
   the preconfigured anycast address.

   Client resolvers SHOULD NOT have SBELT (root server) information,
   because root servers and their addresses sometimes changes requiring
   reconfiguration.

   Client resolvers MAY be able to perform recursive queries.

4. Assigned Addresses

   The following three IPv4 addresses are assigned as preconfigured DNS
   server addresses:

      <to be assigned by IANA>

      <to be assigned by IANA>

      <to be assigned by IANA>

   route information of which should be propagated with a netmask of

      <to be assigned by IANA>

   The following three IPv6 addresses are assigned as preconfigured DNS
   server addresses:

      <to be assigned by IANA>

      <to be assigned by IANA>

      <to be assigned by IANA>

   route information of which should be propagated with a netmask of

      <to be assigned by IANA>

INTERNET DRAFT     Preconfigured DNS Server Addresses          July 2003


   A client resolver can receive a UDP reply from an IP address
   different from one used to send a corresponding query, that UDP reply
   may use source address of non-anycast IP address of server.

   However, such a behavior is not available with TCP and anycast IP
   addresses MUST be used as source addresses of reply packets of TCP.

4.1. Scope Considerations

   The assigned anycast addresses are globally well known and have
   global scopes.

   On the other hand, servers with the anycast addresses have local
   scopes, boundaries between them is determined by a routing system.

   The boundaries many be dynamically determined with routing metric.

   In addition, route administrators may configure static boundaries.

   While there may be static boundaries at site boundaries, always
   requiring them eliminates useful cases, for example, of ISPs
   providing DNS servers for customer sites.

   Within a static boundary, there may be a single server for each
   anycast address, or there may be multiple servers sharing an anycast
   address, which may be useful for load distribution.

   Even if identities of the servers changes dynamically between a query
   and its reply, a simple exchange of UDP packets is not affected and
   TCP transactions detect sequence number inconsistencies and should
   attempt new ones.

   However, having multiple servers sharing an anycast address within a
   static boundary does not improve redundancy, because a DNS process on
   a server may die while a route to the server is still alive.

   Three anycast addresses are provided for the redundancy.

5. Security Considerations

   Cryptographic security requires some information securely (at least
   with authentication, even when public key cryptography is used)
   shared between servers and clients, which requires manual
   configuration.

   Thus, no cryptographic security, which makes the protocol complex
   with no security improvement, should be used by preconfigured client
   resolvers.

INTERNET DRAFT     Preconfigured DNS Server Addresses          July 2003


   The DNS server with the preconfigured addresses are still reasonably
   reliable, if local environment is reasonably secure, that is, there
   is no active attackers receiving queries to the anycast addresses of
   the servers and reply to them.

  I agree with Bob, this isn't the way to go.
  If, the IP that you put into the RA is the address of the DHCPv6-lite
server, then you can ask *it* about the DNS server. (Getting the local domain
name, print server, boot server, etc... that you might need)

  okay, so we have decided that DNS is *so* much more important than any
other services, that we will put it into the RA.
  Hardly surprising for dnsop :-)

  Do other services out there get space in the RA? 

  Since we have explicitely, no state established, there will be no update
to the reverse - unless one of several other proposal is also accepted.

Alain is correct - the machinery in a host and a router
to exchange DHCPv6 Information-request/Reply messages is
nowhere as complex as a full DHCPv6 implementation.

We can demonstrate "DHCPv6-lite" in Cisco routers (in IOS).
It was developed as a a samll part of a part-time project
to implement DHCPv6 prefix delegation by three of
us at Cisco (Ole Troan, Jun Xie and myself).

Regarding the development of a mechanism for multicast
in DHCPv6-lite...

The IPv4 community has been configuring hosts on IPv4
networks with DHCP on large networks for many years,
and there has not been, to date, a demand for any mechanism
to reduce the amount of DHCP traffic.  I don't have
specific figures, but I would imagine that - even in
the case of synchronized startup of all the hosts on
a link - the DHCP traffic would be no more than (and
probably significantly less than) ARP and similar traffic.

I wonder if the situation would be similar in an IPv6
network?  I don't have any operational or measurement
experience, so I don't know what the traffic looks
like on a link where, say, 10,000 hosts start at the
same time?  Can someone comment or speculate on what
the total traffic might look like and
whether multicast DHCPv6 would have a significant
impact on that traffic?

I have (formally) submitted draft-ohta-preconfigured-dns-00.txt
as a new ID.

No RA. Not even DHCP(-lite).

And it is so DNS centric to spend, though locally, a few routing
table entries for DNS.

Does it satisfy you?

Some protocol such as IPv6 intensively use (link local)
multicast.

The reason is merely that, at the time such protocols were
designed, some people believed, though they have been warned,
that the Internet must operate over large clouds of public ATM
networks, broadcast over which was impractical, which is true
because ATM is impractical, and that ATM were multicast capable.

By assuming large link layer, which violates the CATENET model,
many protocols, including but not limited to IPv6 and IGMP,
are damaged.

Now, we can simply say, broadcast.

I agree partly with Alain and Ralph.
However, I think, RA camp including me suggest that
RA-based DNS Discovery is indispensible to ND. 
Of course, I believe that it can be used harmoniously with DHCPv6.
Why should both stateless (ND) and stateful (DHCP) mechanisms
not be developed and deployed  for DNS Discovery?

After the last ietf meeting, four authors (Daniel, Luc, Syam and me) has merged three drafts
regarding RA-based DNS Discovery to make a new draft as follows. 
  http://www.adhoc.6ants.net/~paul/data/draft-jeong-dnsop-ipv6-dns-discovery-00.txt

We would like to propose this draft as DNSOP wg draft for further discussion.
As open issues, the following are suggested;
   o  How to optimize bandwidth on the link? 
   o  How to implement RA-based DNS discovery? 
   o  How to interact with stateful mechanism? 
   o  What about several routers on the same link that could advertise 
      distinct parameters?

We welcome your comments and suggestions.
Thanks.

Reality check: home networks are, if connected to the Internet, attached 
via a gatewaying device. The de vice of choice for a large number of 
networks is a $60 router from on of any number of vendors. These boxes 
provide DHCP, DNS forwarding and NAT. Perhaps some other environment would 
provide a better strawman? DHCP is pretty prevalent in home networks.

  Right, exactly.

  I simply do not believe that there are environments where there will be
a local (on wire) DNS server, but not a local DHCP server. The home
environment is entirely the opposite - local DHCP server in SOHO router
that gets the DNS info from the ISP via DHCP and/or PPP and passes it on via
DHCP.

Right.

Assuming that there is DHCP server even at home, there is no reason
to have stateless (nor statefull) autoconfiguration by ND, which is
why IPv6 is broken.

However, there is still some configuration required at home to
let the local DHCP server gets the ISP via DHCP, but definitely
not by PPP, because PPP is for dial up over non-IP infrastructure.

The simple way for home environment is to to let ISPs offer the DNS
servers for their customer sites, which was impossible with
addresses with site local scope.

Right.

And, having such DHCP servers, there is no role of RA for stateless
(nor stateful) autoconfiguration, which is why IPv6 with ND is broken.

The remaining problem is configuration on how to let the DHCP
server in SOHO router get the info and the solution should be
related to anycast.

DNS server with anycast addresses does not neet intermediate DHCP.

This entire debate has only convinced me that what we really need is
(real) multicast-capable DNS resolvers and protocols (real DNS, not a
substitute service).

Ok DHCP servers are embedded in current IPv4 SOHO router. This is cheap
and efficient. But this is not a valid argument to to say that DHCP is
THE only valid solution to announce DNS resolver server IPv6 address.

SOHO routers, that are currently on market, are using a DHCPv6 client to
be configured by the ISP but are using ND-based stateless address
autoconfiguration to help local hosts to configure their IPv6 addresses
!

Then what is(are) the solution(s):
- RA-based 
- DHCPv6-lite
- Anycast Addresses for resolver DNS server
- SLP (I also like SLP, which already a RFC - Standards Track - !!! Does
anybody have a good point against SLP ?)
- well-known link-local addresses (+ DNS proxies...)?...

There was a analysis made by the DNS Discovery Design Team in march 2001
(draft-ietf-ipnwg-dns-discovery-01.txt). Wouldn't it be valuable to go
on or to restart such a work ? (instead of this no-end battle?) I must
have missed something concerning this old work. Could anyone give me
some pointers or summary?

What was missing in the original DNS discovery work is that
it explicitly ruled out DHCPv6 a priori...

Please be sure that we didn't focus on only SOHO/Homenetwork.
I guess RA-based mechanism is more efficient in mobility than any cases.
Therefore, I would like say that we need both mechanisms for each
application domain.

Huh? Multicast? It's no solution. As I commented to

	By assuming large link layer, which violates the CATENET model,
	many protocols, including but not limited to IPv6 and IGMP,
	are damaged.

	Now, we can simply say, broadcast.

link local multicast is a poor alternative to broadcast.

In addition, DNS with link local multicast/broadcast does not solve
any configuration problem.

Multicast for domains larger than a link beyond routers requires
domain wide broadcast (such as that of data broadcast of DVMRP
or core/RP selction of CBT/PIM) or static configuration (such as that
of core/RP/source of CBT/PIM/SSM).

The confdiguraed data is different site by site, unless you use
anycast for core/RP/source. But, no one is sure what will happen
with this kind of combination of anycast and multicast that this
is not the way to go.

What has been missing is a clear definition on the requirement.

Lacking it, IPv6 WG has been poorly managed that its past work
is not only useless but also harmful.

What kind of autoconfiguration, do you think, is helpful for a

Remember that the mobile host MUST have *CONFIGURED* relationship
and good connectivity with its home agent (or something like that)
and environment around the home agent.

DHCP in SOHO networks alone isn't, no. However, the fact that just about
every network of any size has, or can easily deploy dhcp(lite) is.

The "battle" would end if the RA DNS proponents would stop re-proposing
it. :)

Hi all, 

at last IETF meeting (Vienna), I have understood that Christian Huitema was proposing not to deprecate well-know site-local addresses used for recursive DNS servers. As a consequence, such a solution could also be taken into account in our discussion.

I would like to have the opinion of this working group about that point.

Good point. But "LOTS of other places" should be clarified for the sake

Don't conclude so quickly please. 
- "every network of any size" do not always have DHCP. At least one
example: DSL access use currently PPP+IPCP so as to configure IPv4
"parameters".
- "or can easily deploy dhcp(lite": ok it is not so clear for me.
Deployment is one thing, then we should be sure that such a solution
would work in a lot of situation. I have the case where several DHCP
servers (one stateless, and another statefull for example) could deal a
same LAN, and there I still miss the proper engineering rules not to
confuse a DHCP client.

Hi Raplh, 

thank you for that precision.

draft-ietf-ipngwg-dns-discovery-01.txt had a whole section (6.1 DHCP)
concerning DHCP. But It seems some other points could also be added to
section 5 (Transport Mechanisms) so as to refer explicitly to DHCP.

Do you think it would be valuable to work again on that draft?

But there was an explicit section that was concerning "Requirements"
(section 2). Perhaps that section should be revised ?

To my mind we still do not have a clear statement of what are the
requirements. Some were presented by Rob Austein and Bob Hinden, but
there has been nor a vote, neither a draft.

I don't understand these complaints. ~512 bytes isn't very large, and
broadcast is a poor alternative to admin scoped multicast.

Which configuration problem? It wouldn't give a hostname if that's what
you mean, but I'm not sure that anybody would expect such.

It would need static configuration in a non-optimized state. One of the
challenges for a multicast DNS would be to keep multiple servers from
always replying to every query, and that could be accomplished through
numerous methods, any of which may in turn could minimize the need for
manual maintenance of the multicast address.

It's also possible to limit the use of multicast to DNS discovery, such as
having clients issue (periodic) queries to the multicast address to
determine the available servers, and to choose the top 3 servers (or
whatever) based on certain criteria (RA flag, response time, whatever),
and then use unicast after that.

Why continue this insistent attempt to invent new methods when there is
a well-defined method (stateless-DHCP) that has widespread support?

First reason why this new alternative is a bad idea:
The definition of well-known addresses for each Internet service is not
the way the Internet works. A very strong analysis would be expected to
embark on such a radical reinvention.

Second reason:
Site-local addresses are contentious, to say the least. A large fraction,
if not rough consensus (see Tony Hain's rebuttal), agrees that site-local
addresses cause more trouble than they are worth.

Third reason: 
The number of special site-local addresses would limit the number of
DNS servers that could be made available to clients.

Fourth reason:
For each special site-local address, the local network administration
would have to configure appropriate routing - a non-trivial effort.

Fifth reason:
This approach would not work for the case in which a subscriber uses
a DNS server provided by his service provider. The subscriber's site
and the provider's site are likely often different.

the set of well-known site local addresses is a subset of all site-local
addresses, which is the null set.

  Mobility to *where*?

  It isn't the mobility that is the question, it is what services are present
at the location where one is dropping in to.

  RA is very useful for places where no admission control is present or
expected - so no prior configuration is likely or desireable. yet, the
network is so small, or so ad-hoc that there really is *ONLY* the router.
No printers. No NTP servers. No local SMTP relays. Yet, it is postulated
that there is a local DNS server of some kind. One that is not anycast'able.

  Which networks are these?  Not the IETF network. Not my SOHO network.
  Not most commercial wireless networks nor xDSL or cable networks.
(they have admission control)

  So, which networks need this?

Luc,

At the top of page 2 of draft-ietf-ipngwg-dns-discovery-01.txt is the sentence:

    There are any number of ways that IPv6 hosts can discover information
    required to enable name resolution, in the absence of a DHCP server.

which I read to mean that the document is explicitly describing mechanisms
that do not use DHCP.  Section 6.1 simply suggests the use of DHCP message
formats in a new protocol for use between a host and a DNS server.

draft-ietf-ipngwg-dns-discovery-01.txt expired in September, 2001.  The 
most recent version, draft-ietf-ipv6-dns-discovery-06.txt, which describes 
the reserved site-local address mechanism, expired in February, 2003.  The 
latter document also, indirectly, assumes that DHCP is not available.

I've already clarified my argument in great detail in a previous post. I
should have restrained my urge to comment on this post, but let me make
myself clear once again:

1. In every situation where RA DNS announcements are proposed, dhcp is a
   better solution.

2. RA DNS announcements are an ugly feature creep for RA, and should not
   be implemented.

Is that clear enough for you? :)

But will every device have a DHCPv6 (or DHCPv6 Lite) server on link?  For
those that do, one might ask "why bother with stateless autoconf?" and of
course many sites will wish to keep using DHCP(v6) as a policy choice.
But for networks without DHCP on link, the RA method is an alternative.

Perhaps you can elaborate on your view of "better" to help the resolution
of this discussion along? :)

The spec for Router Advertisements allows for additional options to be
specified, so this was considered possible when the spec was done.

> But will every device have a DHCPv6 (or DHCPv6 Lite) server on link?

i remember when this was asked of v4.  at the stockholm ietf, which
was not all that long ago, folk so disbelieved in it that i had to
run the dhcp server on my laptop and leave it on a rather beautiful
corner table all week.  within a year it was common, two it had
become ubiquitous.

as someone recently asked, do we really believe that a significant
number of nets will have a dns server but not a dhcp server?  the
$65 home dsl gateways have a dhcp server now, and many have some
sort of dns cache or relay.  my wristwatch probably has a dhcp
server, but i don't know how to access it.

One could very well envision a network where the routers will act as
DHCP-lite servers, only passing "stateless configuration" like
DNS server, NTP server, .... but NOT allocating IPv6 addresses.

So the next step would be to define NTP server address in RA, web proxy 
address in RA,
SIP server address in RA,.... RA could be extended to pass anything 
that could be a DHCP option.
This is where feature creep happen.

This has been asked an answered numerous times. In addition to the
overly simplistic "yes" that this overly simple question deserves,
please note the rather precise way that I've framed my statement. For
every situation that you can posit where RA DNS "might be a good idea,"
my response is, "dhcp is a better idea."

The fact that dhcp is already nearly impossible to avoid, even if you
wanted to, simply adds strength to my argument.

See above.

I have done this in the past, but the summary is that dhcp already
provides the mechanism to do what RA DNS announcements would, plus all
the other things that are actually needed to make a client that needs
DNS resolution functional. Thus, it's pointless to make an incomplete
implementation of something from scratch when a complete implementation
of a complete solution already exists.

<selfish state=on>
Also, speaking as a client (freebsd) implementor, I don't want to have
to fuss with "maybe RA exists, and maybe it doesn't," given that the
solutions are already in place for dhcp.

I didn't say, "RA should never be added to." I said THIS is an ugly
feature creep for RA. Primarily because the IP(s) of the resolver(s) are
mostly useless without the search string, and then of course you'll be
needing to add the netbios name server IPs, etc. etc.

There is no point in starting down this road (and lots of reasons not
to).

Hope this helps,

Doug

But will every device have a DHCPv6 (or DHCPv6 Lite) server on link?  For
those that do, one might ask "why bother with stateless autoconf?" and of
course many sites will wish to keep using DHCP(v6) as a policy choice.
But for networks without DHCP on link, the RA method is an alternative.

Perhaps you can elaborate on your view of "better" to help the resolution
of this discussion along? :)

The spec for Router Advertisements allows for additional options to be
specified, so this was considered possible when the spec was done.

I've already clarified my argument in great detail in a previous post. I
should have restrained my urge to comment on this post, but let me make
myself clear once again:

1. In every situation where RA DNS announcements are proposed, dhcp is a
   better solution.

2. RA DNS announcements are an ugly feature creep for RA, and should not
   be implemented.

Is that clear enough for you? :)

Your draft is excellent to say:
      
     This specification is intended to address the narrow scenario 
     where a host needs to determine the DNS servers which are willing 
     to provide DNS resolution services to that host. This document 
     does not define any additional services. 

Are there anyone who still have more bloated requirements?

And if you specify all the details of protocol changes, the only
remaining problem is autoconfiguration of multicast.

From my point of view, the problem with mandating the use of either of
these solutions is that they would both introduce the use of mandatory
proxies to some extent, and would prevent the application-layer DNS from
working in their absence. This is a bad idea, in my opinion, as it
interferes with several basic design tenets.

In the case of RA (as I understand it), the clients and servers couldn't
function without a proxy in any event, even if they were on the same
subnet. In the case of DHCP, a client and server could function in the
absence of a proxy if they were both on the same subnet, but not in other
scenarios. Stick the ~discovery capability into the service itself, and
this is all avoided.

On a related but separate point, generalized configuration services as a
whole should still be available as an option, and DHCP should be capable
of providing all of the necessary configuration information if that
service is already being used. So I'm in favor of adding whatever is
necessary to DHCP, but it should not be *required* in the default case.

Wouldn't the RA always be local and on link though, as each link will have
at least one router for off-link traffic?   Thus there would not need to
be an RA proxy as such.   There would be a need for DHCP forwarding though,
as one would be unlikely to have a DHCP server on every link, unless all
routers included DHCPv6 Lite support.

I think many enterprise networks now don't have clear L2 and L3 equipment
boundaries.  Functionality is combined, and to some extent blurred.  In 
our enterprise network, which uses a lot of combined L2/L3 equipment, our 
core "switch" can forward DHCP requests from routed VLANs.  It could
equally handle RAs on links too, of course.

I note that in many enterprises DHCP is not used.  Hosts are manually
configured, yet such enterprises have well known DNS resolvers.

At our own enterprise (university) where we have DHCP we use it for the
basic network config stuff (that is handled in v6 by RAs), plus DNS, DNS
search path, NTP, NIS and some boot parameters.   I don't know how typical
that is in a campus department.

The interesting question is how the DNS resolver (and/or other) information
is configured to the router, for the RA method to work.

One can chose to co-locate a DHCP-lite server with the DNS name
server, at which point DHCP is no longer a proxy by the definition you
appear to be using.  There's still some involvment by the router in
everything but the single subnet case, but that's unavoidable (in
kind, anyway -- one can argue about the degree of router involvement).

Wouldn't the RA always be local and on link though, as each link will have
at least one router for off-link traffic?   Thus there would not need to
be an RA proxy as such.   There would be a need for DHCP forwarding though,
as one would be unlikely to have a DHCP server on every link, unless all
routers included DHCPv6 Lite support.

I think many enterprise networks now don't have clear L2 and L3 equipment
boundaries.  Functionality is combined, and to some extent blurred.  In 
our enterprise network, which uses a lot of combined L2/L3 equipment, our 
core "switch" can forward DHCP requests from routed VLANs.  It could
equally handle RAs on links too, of course.

I note that in many enterprises DHCP is not used.  Hosts are manually
configured, yet such enterprises have well known DNS resolvers.

At our own enterprise (university) where we have DHCP we use it for the
basic network config stuff (that is handled in v6 by RAs), plus DNS, DNS
search path, NTP, NIS and some boot parameters.   I don't know how typical
that is in a campus department.

The interesting question is how the DNS resolver (and/or other) information
is configured to the router, for the RA method to work.

I'm not sure what you mean "proxy". But, it is not a business of
"discovery" (whatever "discovery" means) protocols to relay service
to other subnets if a server for the service is not available link
locally.

On the Internet, the mechanism to relay requests to servers over
multiple links is called routing.

The mechanism to propagate relaying directions to the servers over
multiple links is called a routing protocol.

ND can be bloated to poorly perform some aspect of routing, of course.

I mean a third-party agent with knowledge of the application and/or the
environment. My examples were poorly formed but are valid in the general
sense, since we are still talking about relying upon extraneous agents
which have to be managed explicitly and separately from the application
end-points themselves. Certainly there are advantages to doing so
voluntarily (equitable benefit from the investment in resources), but
requiring this model really needs to be avoided.

Exactly, let's let routing do the job it is supposed to be providing
already anyway, rather than layering on even more mandatory services.

This document specifies the steps a node takes in deciding how to    
autoconfigure DNS information, such as the address of recursive DNS    
server and DNS zone suffix.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

At our own entreprise (operator R&D department), we have also DHCP. I do
think that is very common in our IPv4 world.

To my mind, recursive DNS resolver information would be acquired through
uplink access in a SOHO environment (typically through DHCPv6 over PPP).
In a entreprise/university, such information would be configured by
network managers on routers where it is needed, in the same manner as
the configuration of DHCP-relay are configured.

Ok I may understand what do you wanna say. 
1- we could use multicast to transport DNS requests. But multicast is
not easy to deploy within access networks such as xDSL, RTC... (NBMA
links)
2- we could use anycast

But it is not clear for me how we could use DNSSEC in such scheme. There
is still and perhaps a bigger issue there if we need to distribute keys.
(I do not argue that RA-based solution is better there ;+)
