The IESG has approved the following document:

- 'Detecting Network Attachment in IPv6 Goals '
   <draft-ietf-dna-goals-04.txt> as an Informational RFC

This document is the product of the Detecting Network Attachment Working Group. 

The IESG contact persons are Margaret Wasserman and Thomas Narten.

Technical Summary

   At the time a host establishes a new link-layer connection, it may or
   may not have a valid IP configuration for Internet connectivity.  The
   host may check for link change, i.e.  determine whether a link change
   has occurred, and then, based on the result, it can automatically
   decide whether its IP configuration is still valid or not.  During
   link identity detection, the host may also collect necessary
   information to initiate a new IP configuration for the case that the
   IP subnet has changed.  In this memo, this procedure is called
   Detecting Network Attachment (DNA).  DNA schemes should be precise,
   sufficiently fast, secure and of limited signaling.

Working Group Summary
 
   This document is a work item fo the DNA WG.
 
Protocol Quality
 
   This document was reviewed for the IESG by Margaret Wasserman.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Detecting Network Attachment Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Link-layer Event Notifications for Detecting Network Attachments
	Author(s)	: A. Yegin, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-dna-link-information-01.txt
	Pages		: 18
	Date		: 2005-2-11
	
Certain network access technologies are capable of providing various
link-layer status information to IP.  Link-layer event notifications
can help IP expeditiously detect configuration changes.  This draft
provides a non-exhaustive catalogue of information available from
well-known access technologies.

Certainly mailing list traffic has been light.

This is of concern to both the Chairs and the Area
Directors.

There are, as you say, a small core of people
actively driving work for this group.  The number of
people is probably about three times as large 
as you say, but the silence of the other
Mailing list members should be explored.
We really need to see if the (list) members are
actually interested in the outputs of those
currently spending cycles on the development.

It is worth noticing that there are at least
two implementations of ideas under discussion,
and interest from manufacturers.

At the last IETF session, we didn't have room
for one of the A-D's to squeeze in (sorry!)

Perhaps we have or will see a waning of interest.

It's worth working out whether this is the case,
though.

The goals document is a distillation of the 
discussions which originated back in the days of 
MIPv6 development.  At the time, the understanding
of the problem was actually quite poor, and
JinHyeock and I (and others) proposed some
solutions which look naive now.

A set of goals to measure solutions against
is certainly worth having.  Now that it has
been approved, the work can move onto something
closer to implementation.

The BCPs are similar in that people have previously
been able to design solutions which work in a
some constrained environments (Eager Cell Switching,
etc), but have significant drawbacks in others.
the BCPs are to give something defined in the
current standards which is useful, safe and
reasonably fast.

Personally (biased), I think that these documents
aren't redundant. As far as I can see there
weren't really any architecture documents for
mobility in IPv6 :)

Please be aware: this is not a mobility group.
It's a connectivity group.  Erik Nordmark
(then an AD) said that he thought the problem was
broader than movement detection.

So while mobility documents may have had a go at
defining mechanism for fast reconfiguration
in a particular network, not everyine will have
50ms mean delay between RAs, nor FMIPv6.

This is not the case.

There are several interesting and widely applicable
ideas of how to do this at L3.

By monday, a design discussion draft will be
posted (one of the Design Team products), which
will shed light on this.

At this stage, DNA-DT discussions have been
in-camera.  Pekka and I aren't even on the list.
It's not surprising that details aren't leaking
out onto the DNA list yet then.

While this is not aimed at secrecy, the DT have
been doing a good job of effectively and efficiently
evaluating various solutions.  New ideas and 
knowledge have been uncovered.

Please wait and see for this (only a few days more).

Well, that depends on your point of view.

There are plenty of drafts in the repository.

 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/public/pidtracker.cgi?command=search_list&search_job_owner=0&search_group_acronym=&search_status_id=&search_cur_state=&sub_state_id=6&search_filename=-dna-&search_rfcnumber=&search_area_acronym=&search_button=SEARCH

You'll notice:

(In the existing protocol space)
draft-ietf-dna-link-information (None) 

draft-narayanan-dna-hosts-bcp
draft-narayanan-dna-routers-bcp 
draft-jinchoi-dna-cpl 
draft-hong-dna-if-l2

(in the proposal space)
draft-narayanan-dna-rrd 
draft-daley-dna-det-fastra 
draft-daley-dna-nonce-resp
draft-daley-dna-prob-fastra 

More drafts are expected on monday or by monday.

As you know, a lot of the drafts
come from a small core of people.
If they're missing something, then people should
contribute a more effective solution.

Perhaps you are correct with regard to mailing list activity.

It is certainly worth finding out if people
are interested in the outputs of the group.

Another alternative idea may be that while people
are interested in the outputs, they are unable
to devote time to the document and protocol
development themselves (except for example
at IETF).

Perhaps we can poll people as to what their
current level of interest is, and determine if
some actions need to be taken.

Certainly there needs to be more input on the ML
for the IETF process to be fully effective.
Lulls with furious activity around meeting times
have the potential of blindsiding the group if
new technical details come out too late to be fixed
before a session.

If people have lost interest and don't
want to see a document, please speak up.

If you're interested, but quiet, please indicate
if this is so.

Your advice on how best to advance the group
is also welcome.

(Chair Hat Off)

Personally, being biased, I think that new
trigger primitives are only half of the story.

It may take a long time to upgrade or replace
the majority of deployed link-layer equipment,
especially those with a firmware or part hardware
implementation.

Software upgrades on host and routing
infrastructure are either more common (for routers)
or don't require co-ordination (for hosts).
This may give L3 solutions earlier momentum
than new L2 solutions.

It's also worthwhile to remember that while 
IEEE's protocols are pervasive, they're not 
universal.

Thanks again for having the courage to 
express an opinion.

Greg

Greg:

I am happy that you took this mail in good sprit.  

Here are my three comments:

1) Goals and BCP drafts are Ok for novices, but there are no fundamental advancement of knowledge in these drafts. So, they are just the place holders, similar to padding in the data frames to align on certain boundaries;-)

2) If you ignore Alper et. al's link hint draft which pre-exist before DNA group, all other drafts that you mentioned below have been co-authored by just the three authors - yourself, Jin-choi, and  Narayna. That, by any definition, is extremely limited participation from the standardization point of view. 

3) Honestly, I don't find any thing compelling in the solutions because  all we have are variations of fast RA with various names such as det RA, probalistic RA or stochastic RA (waiting for it ;-). RA caching in light weight APs is big no. Unless, someone can prove near-optimality of a pure L3 solution, you are simply advancing something that will do more harm than good. 

Thats all that I have to say.

James

<P>
Greg:<BR>
<BR>
I am happy that you took this mail in good sprit.&nbsp; <BR>
<BR>
Here are my three comments:<BR>
<BR>
1) Goals and BCP drafts are Ok for novices, but there are no fundamental advancement of knowledge in these drafts. So, they are just the place holders, similar to padding in the data frames to align on certain boundaries;-)<BR>
<BR>
2) If you ignore Alper et. al's link hint draft which pre-exist before DNA group, all other drafts that you mentioned below have been co-authored by just the three authors - yourself, Jin-choi, and&nbsp; Narayna. That, by any definition, is extremely limited participation from the standardization point of view. <BR>
<BR>
3) Honestly, I don't find any thing compelling in the solutions because&nbsp; all we have are variations of fast RA with various names such as det RA, probalistic RA or stochastic RA (waiting for it ;-). RA caching in light weight APs is big no. Unless, someone can prove near-optimality of a pure L3 solution, you are simply advancing something that will do more harm than good. <BR>
<BR>
Thats all that I have to say.<BR>

&gt;<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Certainly mailing list traffic has been light.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;This is of concern to both the Chairs and the Area<BR>
&gt;Directors.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;There are, as you say, a small core of people<BR>
&gt;actively driving work for this group.&nbsp; The number of<BR>
&gt;people is probably about three times as large<BR>
&gt;as you say, but the silence of the other<BR>
&gt;Mailing list members should be explored.<BR>
&gt;We really need to see if the (list) members are<BR>
&gt;actually interested in the outputs of those<BR>
&gt;currently spending cycles on the development.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;It is worth noticing that there are at least<BR>
&gt;two implementations of ideas under discussion,<BR>
&gt;and interest from manufacturers.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt; &gt; This is very rare for an IETF group where it is easy to see even a<BR>
&gt; &gt; smallest working group attract a few hundred people in meetings<BR>
&gt; &gt; (and /or on mailing lists).&nbsp; The main reason is that DNA group<BR>
&gt; &gt; hasn?t produced any thing useful ? goals and bcp drafts are just re-<BR>
&gt; &gt; iteration of what already exist in IPv4 and IPv6 mobility<BR>
&gt; &gt; architecture documents.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;At the last IETF session, we didn't have room<BR>
&gt;for one of the A-D's to squeeze in (sorry!)<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Perhaps we have or will see a waning of interest.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;It's worth working out whether this is the case,<BR>
&gt;though.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;The goals document is a distillation of the<BR>
&gt;discussions which originated back in the days of<BR>
&gt;MIPv6 development.&nbsp; At the time, the understanding<BR>
&gt;of the problem was actually quite poor, and<BR>
&gt;JinHyeock and I (and others) proposed some<BR>
&gt;solutions which look naive now.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;A set of goals to measure solutions against<BR>
&gt;is certainly worth having.&nbsp; Now that it has<BR>
&gt;been approved, the work can move onto something<BR>
&gt;closer to implementation.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;The BCPs are similar in that people have previously<BR>
&gt;been able to design solutions which work in a<BR>
&gt;some constrained environments (Eager Cell Switching,<BR>
&gt;etc), but have significant drawbacks in others.<BR>
&gt;the BCPs are to give something defined in the<BR>
&gt;current standards which is useful, safe and<BR>
&gt;reasonably fast.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Personally (biased), I think that these documents<BR>
&gt;aren't redundant. As far as I can see there<BR>
&gt;weren't really any architecture documents for<BR>
&gt;mobility in IPv6 :)<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Please be aware: this is not a mobility group.<BR>
&gt;It's a connectivity group.&nbsp; Erik Nordmark<BR>
&gt;(then an AD) said that he thought the problem was<BR>
&gt;broader than movement detection.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;So while mobility documents may have had a go at<BR>
&gt;defining mechanism for fast reconfiguration<BR>
&gt;in a particular network, not everyine will have<BR>
&gt;50ms mean delay between RAs, nor FMIPv6.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt; &gt; Based on past proceedings and discussions, it appears that DNA<BR>
&gt; &gt; group cannot propose any solution without Layer 2 event<BR>
&gt; &gt; modifications; something that is outside the scope of IETF.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;This is not the case.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;There are several interesting and widely applicable<BR>
&gt;ideas of how to do this at L3.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;By monday, a design discussion draft will be<BR>
&gt;posted (one of the Design Team products), which<BR>
&gt;will shed light on this.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;At this stage, DNA-DT discussions have been<BR>
&gt;in-camera.&nbsp; Pekka and I aren't even on the list.<BR>
&gt;It's not surprising that details aren't leaking<BR>
&gt;out onto the DNA list yet then.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;While this is not aimed at secrecy, the DT have<BR>
&gt;been doing a good job of effectively and efficiently<BR>
&gt;evaluating various solutions.&nbsp; New ideas and<BR>
&gt;knowledge have been uncovered.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Please wait and see for this (only a few days more).<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt; &gt;&nbsp; I<BR>
&gt; &gt; don?t see any interesting proposals being discussed in DNA WG. On<BR>
&gt; &gt; the other hand, there are over a dozen actively pursued proposals<BR>
&gt; &gt; in IEEE 802.21 ? protocol independent handoff group. For Layer 3<BR>
&gt; &gt; solutions, I have not seen any thing better than fast RA draft that<BR>
&gt; &gt; exists from pre-DNA group creation.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Well, that depends on your point of view.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;There are plenty of drafts in the repository.<BR>

&gt;<BR>
&gt;As you know, a lot of the drafts<BR>
&gt;come from a small core of people.<BR>
&gt;If they're missing something, then people should<BR>
&gt;contribute a more effective solution.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt; &gt; Yes, I know two or three active people in this group are trying to<BR>
&gt; &gt; create some sort of solution document, but it appears, based on<BR>
&gt; &gt; rather poor traffic on the mailing list, that mobility community<BR>
&gt; &gt; has already given up.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Perhaps you are correct with regard to mailing list activity.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;It is certainly worth finding out if people<BR>
&gt;are interested in the outputs of the group.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Another alternative idea may be that while people<BR>
&gt;are interested in the outputs, they are unable<BR>
&gt;to devote time to the document and protocol<BR>
&gt;development themselves (except for example<BR>
&gt;at IETF).<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Perhaps we can poll people as to what their<BR>
&gt;current level of interest is, and determine if<BR>
&gt;some actions need to be taken.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Certainly there needs to be more input on the ML<BR>
&gt;for the IETF process to be fully effective.<BR>
&gt;Lulls with furious activity around meeting times<BR>
&gt;have the potential of blindsiding the group if<BR>
&gt;new technical details come out too late to be fixed<BR>
&gt;before a session.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt; &gt; What is the point of creating a document in which most people seem<BR>
&gt; &gt; to have lost the interest? In my opinion, the group should become<BR>
&gt; &gt; dormant or be closed until IEEE comes up with better event<BR>
&gt; &gt; definitions for layer 2 for facilitating faster hand-off.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;If people have lost interest and don't<BR>
&gt;want to see a document, please speak up.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;If you're interested, but quiet, please indicate<BR>

&gt;<BR>
&gt;Your advice on how best to advance the group<BR>
&gt;is also welcome.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;(Chair Hat Off)<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;Personally, being biased, I think that new<BR>
&gt;trigger primitives are only half of the story.<BR>
&gt;<BR>
&gt;It may take a long time to upgrade or replace<BR>
&gt;the majority of deployed link-layer equipment,<BR>
&gt;especially those with a firmware or part hardware<BR>

&gt;<BR>
&gt;Software upgrades on host and routing<BR>
&gt;infrastructure are either more common (for routers)<BR>
&gt;or don't require co-ordination (for hosts).<BR>
&gt;This may give L3 solutions earlier momentum<BR>
&gt;than new L2 solutions.<BR>
&gt;<BR>

Indeed.  That's what RFC's are basically for.  They're not for the
Illuminati of a particular technology to pore over, but for deployers
or implementers, some of which won't know why certain steps were taken.

Not everyone will read the goals document.  It has been mostly useful
to those people in the group considering the problems.

The BCPs will be less relevant if people make modifications to
protocols (using things like a DNA solution).  There aren't really
specifications of this today for the person who doesn't read RFC2461
regularly.

The latest versions of the BCP draft provide usual case performance
statistics though, for triggered RS/RA exchanges.   The figures there
are telling (though predictable):

You can't use RFC2461 RS/RA, the primary routing discovery mechanism
in IPv6, to support real-time voice (or video or user sessions or...).

So something has to be done.  If that doesn't mean standards track, it's
still worth documenting (IMO).

I try not to ignore the link information draft.

It's pretty important, in terms of IETF interest in sub-L3 issues.

There are other drafts, some of which predate DNA and are mobileip
or IPv6 titled. Also, please be aware that there are co-authors on the
list of publications which you mentioned, which are making important
contributions.

You're right though, that there are some people putting a lot of
time into DNA work.  It's pretty amazing that people can be employed
for a while (like me) to never send a packet which is forwarded by
a router :)

You may be pleased to know that I'm not a member of the DNA design team.
I've been following their progress through reports, and they're doing
well.  There are new ideas coming out of the (sub)group.

So maybe an idea which wasn't proposed by the three authors you mention
will be the focus of DNA standardization.

Well, we've already had more harm than good advanced in RFC3775 :)

In Mobile IPv6, there wasn't time, space or inclination to do
movement detection for mobile hosts correctly.

So some of the Router Advertisement timers were modified.  I was there
at the time, and contributed text.  It certainly wasn't any person's
favourite specification (the RA timers/MD), but there wasn't any way of
indicating succinctly how to use triggers, or which circumstances things
could be done in (at L3).


I'm pretty sure that the next draft isn't going to be stochastic RA
(unless you submit it - it's getting pretty close to April 1).

As you say, most of the drafts on the list cover RA delivery.
There are three main areas where I think DNA may be able to contribute:

* When and how to initiate checks.
* How to identify from a single received message that change
   has occurred
* How to receive change information reliably and quickly.

These are being covered, and probably have the same level of attention
(considering link-hints, BCP, prefix lists, draft-pentland-mobileip-linkid).

These may not have the same architectural challenges as IPv6
multihoming, but are relatively achieveable, and potentially useful.

If changes at L2 or in deployed networks make this unuseful, we'll
take a serious look at that, and whether there should be a DNA group.

It's going to be possible to prove the optimality and safety of
L3 change detection solutions, though.

It's also going to be possible to ask L2 designers: please give
L3 the information and choice, the host is capable of deciding.
Perhaps less per-technology focus will be needed by L2 designers,
and they can concentrate on shipping frames fast.

How this is achieved in reality may be different though, with
wireless issues potentially dominating anything which can be done
at L3.

> Thats all that I have to say.

Well, your opinions are definitely sought.

Sometimes the light of reason shines through someone
saying "Wait a minute!".

Feel free to discuss some more of these ideas
(if you have the time or inclination).

Greg

A new draft BCP for hosts performing DNA has been
added to the repository.

This document was originated with draft-narayanan-dna-bcp-01
and has been broken into two components (hosts and routers)
based on feedback at IETF61.

This new document focusses on host issues for DNA,
using existing protocols.

Please read this document, and comment on-list.

Greg

Hosts experiencing rapid link-layer changes may require further
    configuration change detection procedures than more traditional fixed
    hosts.  DNA is defined as the process by which a host collects
    appropriate information and detects the identity of its currently
    attached link to ascertains the validity of its IP configuration.

A new draft BCP for network deployments supporting DNA has been
added to the repository.

This document was originated with draft-narayanan-dna-bcp-01
and has been broken into two components (hosts and routers)
based on feedback at IETF61.

This new document focusses on router and network side issues
for networks which support host DNA operation.

Please read this document, and comment on-list.

Firstly, I appreciate you voicing your opinion.  Critic is what strives 
you for better.  That said, would you please elaborate?  What is the 
reason that you see them as doing any harm in the first place?  How 
does that harm exceed the good that you see?

If you are sincere with your critic, I'd like to see you back it up.  
On the other hand, if you are just expressing your frustration about 
the silence on the list, we may expect that to change soon.  The design 
team document was submitted today, and should appear shortly.  Either 
Greg or I will announce it here as soon as it appears.

Hi,

Since the -00 deadline has just passed, I'm interested
in collecting a list of documents relevant to DNA.

If you've got documents which are relevant
(even if they're not DNA keyworded) please indicate
what they are, and how to get them (if they've not
reached the repository yet).

Greg.

Dear WG,

The DNA design team put out a Discussion document
which outlines the principles as to the design of DNA
solutions.

It covers the pros and cons of each technology
and also provides some new ideas which were
developed within the Design Team.

Performance measures are made for each of the protocols,
for comparison purposes.

It outlines how example technologies may be combined
to form a complete DNA protocol and matches these
against the DNA goals.

I have been informed that this document is intended to
support decisions made by the working group in choosing
a DNA solution.

Please comment with your opinions or questions
after you have read the document.

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-dnadt-dna-discussion-00.txt

For your reference, the design team consists of:

JinHyeock Choi, Tero Kauppinen, James Kempf, Sathya Narayanan,
Erik Nordmark, and Brett Pentland.

In the interest of initiating a discussion on the hosts BCP, I have 
tried to summarize the hosts BCP draft upto Section 6 below.

Reference: 
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-narayanan-dna-hosts-bcp-00.txt

The two steps for DNA recommended by the draft are:

1) Validation of current configuration (to identify link change)
       Example configurations are: the current IPv6 prefix and address, 
default router information and neighbour cache entries.
        Issues:
                 Use of link local addresses and subset of prefixes in 
RA messages
        Suggested solutions:
                 Confirmation of existing configuration based on 
received RA with current prefix and/or current router address.
                  CPL - Complete Prefix list
                  Confirmation of Neighbor cache entry for a global 
address (SHOULD). Use confirmation - DO NOT initiate this for validation 
test.
        Recommendations
                  We have most of them as SHOULDs. May be that is too 
conservative. Please look at section 5.3 in the draft

2) Reachability detection
       Partial reachability confirmation with the current default router 
is REQUIRED, while bi-directional is RECOMMENDED for wireless environments.
       Issues:
                Dependence on long timeouts
       Suggested solutions:
                 Neighbor discovery test (NS-NA message exchange)
                 Router discovery test (RS-RA message exchange)
                 Hybrid - both NS and RS parallely ???
                 Require authorization of the router.
       Recommendations:
                 Again, please comment on the SHOULDs and MAYs. Section 6.3

Please post comments.

Dear DT,

Was there a reason that Tentative Source Link-Layer Address
options were recommended for acting as the sequence
ordering mechanism in unnegotiated detfastra?

I would have thought that the inbound Router Solicitation's
source address would work just as well to xor against the hash
(probably in reverse or reverse byte order, to be less
predictable) to get the ordering.

Since you can't assume that your link-local address is unique should you 
have moved, you need to run the optimistic DAD procedure.
While doing so, the RS must have the unspecified source address.
Hence all RSes from different hosts will all look identical, except for 
a TSLLAO.

I intended it to the WG mailing list.

Since the document is out there (DNA list), I guess it's OK to
discuss components on-list.

I wasn't sure if my email to DNA-DT would bounce anyway.

Optimistic DAD doesn't require unspecified source addresses on RSs.

It requires that (non-tentative) SLLAOs aren't included in RSs while
optimistic.

(section 2.2 of draft-ietf-ipv6-optimistic-dad-05:

"...
       * Never using an Optimistic Address as the source address of a Router
         Solicitation with a SLLAO.  Another address, or the unspecified
         address, may be used, or the RS may be sent without a SLLAO.

         An address collision with a router may cause neighboring
         router's IsRouter flags for that address to be cleared.
         However, routers do not appear to use the IsRouter flag for
         anything, and the NA sent in response to the collision will
         reassert the IsRouter flag.
..."
)

section 3.2:
"...
    * (modifies 6.3.7)  A node MUST NOT send a Router Solicitation with a
         SLLAO from an Optimistic Address.  Router Solicitations SHOULD
         be sent from a non-Optimistic or the Unspecified Address,
         however they MAY be sent from an Optimistic Address as long as
         the SLLAO is not included.
..."
)

There was previously some concern over the use of RS, since it clears
the IsRouter flag in the case of colliding with a router (V.low
probability). It was found that the DAD defence from the collided
address would reset it less than 1 second later, though.

In most cases, I guess that the host will have to choose between sending
RS with Unspecified Source or Optimistic Address.  There's no protocol
impediment to using the Optimistic Address though.

I'd guess that really we'll see people using the Optimistic Address
in most cases, in order to allow for a unicast response (at L3).
If that's the case, source addresses are sufficient.

Relying on TSLLAO excludes legacy devices which are more likely to use
unspecified source addresses anyway.   In the case that an RS arrives
with an address and no TSLLAO (or even with an SLLAO one), it may be 
valuable to send an RS fast anyway.

Just an idea.

Greg

That's a bit odd, since RFC 2461 has a SHOULD include SLLAO when the 
source address isn't unspecified. And when using optimistic dad the 
source address would presumably need to be unspecified to avoid 
polluting the caches with optimistic information.

Hmm - sending a RS with the optimistic address as a source and without 
SLLAO doesn't seem any more useful then sending with with an unspecified 
source address.

Can you recall why optimistic DAD explicitly wants to allow this?

But you wouldn't get a single unicast response unless the router has a 
neighbor cache entries which requires either a NS/NA exchange triggered 
by the router before the RA can be unicast, or TSLLAO.
Optimizing for the former 4 packet exchange doesn't seem useful, since 
the multicast RA is actually as efficient if not more efficient.

I assume that by "legacy devices" you mean devices that implement RFC 
2461/62. Such devices, after moving from one link to another, will 
retain the old information for an extremely long time. For instance, 
addresses autoconfigured from the prefix of the old link will remain 
preferred for new communication for *7 days* when the default lifetimes 
are used. And as long as these are retained some communication (the ones 
that pick that preferred source address based on the default address 
selection algorithm) will just. So given that legacy host will be hosed 
for 7 days by default, I'm not concerned about being able to give them a 
RA a few seconds faster.

Hi Erik,

This is getting interesting, but will probably settle
down soon.

As you say, SHOULD, not MUST include the SLLAO.

We certainly don't want to include SLLAO, but an optimistic
neighbour advertisement or a TSLLAO won't override existing
neighbour cache entries (and any DAD defending NA will).

So there's really change in having RS's not include the
SLLAO, since routers have already had to deal with the case
(albeit it maybe not optimally).

* It is useful if the router performs neighbour discovery on
   the address, and then sends unicast (which is what at least
   RADVD on Linux does, if it isn't sending an immediate Multicast RA).

* It is useful also if the router has an existing neighbour cache entry
   for the address (likely in the non-movement case for DNA).

* It's useful if there's TSLLAO in the RS.

* It doesn't hurt if there's no way to make a unicast response,
   since a multicast will be scheduled.

Rate-limitation of multicast RAs is likely to induce delays
in some cases.  This (the chance multicast delay) is calculated
for various advertisement intervals in draft-narayanan-dna-routers-bcp-00.

Sending a specified source address and allowing the router to
choose whether it delays with a multicast or solicits and
sends an NS (or if it has TSLLAO sends a unicast) makes sense
if you want a (even moderately) fast response.

> Can you recall why optimistic DAD explicitly wants to allow this?

I'm not sure that Optimistic DAD specifically wanted to allow this,
but it's a good feature to keep if it's supported, since routers
modified to support TSLLAO are likely to be the ones optimized for DNA.

Indeed.
It's not optimized for the 4 packet exchange.

It's optimized for the two packet exchange, when TSLLAO is present.

I'm not encouraging people to leave out TSLLAO, I'm encouraging
the optimization to not rely on TSLLAO.

As I said earlier, an RS won't perform worse by having a specified
source address (with SLLAO, TSLLAO or no LLAO).  Router discovery
can perform worse if there's an unspecified source address,
if TSLLAO isn't supported by the router.

I actually mean anyone not running optimistic DAD. :)
This includes a lot of RFC3775 implementations today.

The legacy unspecified source address devices won't get
a fast response if you use the source address for fast
responses.

Even with TSLLAO though, it's not possible in every
implementation to send unicast MAC responses when
there's an RS from the unspecified source address.
Any responses would then have to be treated as multicast.

Specified source addresses get around this issue.
They also create neighbour cache entries on the router,
which an unspecified address RS cannot.

It's worth considering that unspecified source address RS
cannot be secured with SEND.  We may not want to give
fast responses to devices which don't have to do any work
in generating solicitations.

What I'm saying is not that RS's should be sent without
SLLAOs or TSLLAOs, but that on optimized transmissions the
hosts are likely to have specified source addresses AND TSLLAOs.

So an unspecified source addresses really shouldn't be
the focus of optimization.

One of the purposes of optimistic DAD is to allow use
of addresses while optimistic.  It would be a shame to
waste the opportunity of using this feature, when there
are so many problems with RS's from unspecified source
addresses.

Dear DNA WG,

=20

I have a question regarding the draft

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-hong-dna-if-l2-00.txt

=20

Chapter 3.4 describes the Make before Break approach for Multiple =
Interfaces
and contains the following statement:

=20

=85To support the make before break method on multiple interfaces, each
link-layer technology must be the same.

=20

I guess that this is not the case for mobile terminals which have more =
than
one wireless interface for different bearer technologies, e.g., WLAN, =
GPRS
and UMTS.

Especially for seamless roaming in overlay networks you will need access =
to
different link-layer technologies.

=20

What is the idea behind this statement in the draft?

=20

Regards,

Stefan

Hi,

There has been some informal discussion of the
importance of DNA to 802.21 and 802.21 to DNA.

Does anyone have an opinion of how the groups
interact, or how they could be made to interact?

Put another way, if there are synergies between the
groups, what's the best way for the groups to
contribute to each others' work?

Particularly if you're attending both 802.21
and DNA, that would be interesting to know.

Greg

Greg, I know several people already 
are attending both .21 and DNA.

Both groups are able to use them as a reporter.

Just my comments

Thanks

Hi, all,

I posted a new draft to dhc WG, "DHCPv6 Options for Fast 
Handovers", draft-ogawa-fhopt-00.txt".

It can be found at:
 http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ogawa-fhopt-00.txt


With great effort of many researchers, the protocol design 
of FMIP is to be completed. However, I think there are 4 
issues to apply current FMIP to real networks. 
In the draft, the issues are discussed briefly, and new DHCP 
options (Fast Handover Options) and their protocol is 
proposed as an alternative to current FMIP.

The main functions of this protocol are ported from FMIP and 
some new functions are added. With the protocol, fast 
handover function including fast "Detecting Network 
Attachment" function is deployed in DHCP servers and MNs but 
not in every router, so plain access routers (if they have 
the DHCP relay function) can be used. For example, Cisco's 
current routers, which support the DHCPv6 relay function, 
can be used.

We are currently implementing the protocol in Linux. I plan 
to check the basic protocol functions on real equipment by 
the end of March.

I would very appreciate it if you would give me some comment 
for the draft.

Thanks in advance.


- Takeshi.

Dear Greg

Kindly allow a 10 min slot for CPL. 

CPL was around for a while and we'd like to 
ask WG to accept it as a WG item.  

We think it is mature enough and the DT 
discussion draft cites CPL as a backup scheme. 

Thanks in advance for your kind consideration. 

Best Regards

JinHyeock

Dear WG,

At the last IETF, it was made an action point to follow up
getting ethernet related text for the link information draft.

Due to time delays and people being busy, this hasn't been
incorporated into the draft before the deadline.

So I thought I'd have a go at it.

Below is a rough version of some text which may be applicable to
link hints in 802.3/802.1d.

Everyone is asked to read and comment on the text.

People with expertise in MAC implementation and especially bridging
are welcome to review/comment/trash this.

Greg

-----------------------------------------------

The following text requires two references:

ieee 802.3 (2002)  [802.3]
ieee 802.1d (2004) [802.1d]

please note that this 802.3 2002 contains phy specs for
ethernet up to 1G.

please note that this 802.1d 2004 contains RSTP.


Text follows:
-------------------------------------------------

Ethernet is the most commonly deployed Local Area Network
technology in use today.
As deployed today, it is specified by both a
physical layer/medium access control (MAC) layer specification [802.3],
and a bridging specification used for connecting different
ethernet LAN segments together [802.1d].

In Ethernet networks, hosts are connected by wires or by optic fibre
to a switch (bridge), a bus (e.g. co-axial cable), a repeater (hub), or
directly to another ethernet device.  Interfaces are symmetric, in
that while many different physical laters may be present, medium access 
control is uniform for all devices.

Ethernet specifies its own link monitoring mechanism, which indicates
when both the local physical and MAC layer are capable of transferring
frames.
The Link Integrity Test operation is used to identify when packets are
able to be received on an ethernet segment.
It is applicable to both wired and optical physical layers, although
details vary between technologies (link pulses in copper, light levels
in fibre).

The status of the link as determined by the Link Integrity Test is
stored in the variable 'link_status'.  Changes to the value of
link_status (for example due to Link Integrity Test failure) will
generate link indications if the technology dependent interface is 
implemented on an ethernet device [802.3].

The link_status has possible values of FAIL, READY and OK.
When an interface is in FAIL state, Link Integrity Tests have failed.
Where status is READY, the link segment has passed integrity tests,
but autonegotiation has not completed.  OK state indicates that the
medium is able to send and receive packets.

Upon transition to a particular state the Physical Medium Attachment
subsystems generates a PMA_LINK.indicate(link_status).  Indications
of OK state may be used as Link-Up indications for DNA.
PMA_LINK.indicate(FAIL) may be used as a Link-Down indication reliably
by DNA[802.3].

Ethernet networks are commonly bridged and hosts are unable to tell
a-priori whether the LAN segment they connect to is bridged.
In any case where bridges are in operation, they rely upon a spanning
tree protocol, to ensure there are no bridging loops.
For these technologies, even though the link-layer is available,
no forwarding will occur until the network is satisfied that
the host is not another bridge port.
Until this time, no packets will be received except for Bridge Protocol
Data Unit (BPDU) configuration frames.

Reception of a PMA_LINK.indicate(OK) is therefore insufficient in most
cases to ensure that packets can be sent across the bridged network.
After reception of an OK indication, a host may be able to monitor
received BPDU frames to determine the delay required before packets
may be bridged.  with the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) this is twice
the ForwardDelay parameter specified in the frame (default 2 * 15
seconds)[802.1d].

If the switch is performing Rapid Spanning Tree Protocols (RSTP), it
instead waits "Bridge Max Age" (advertised in the BPDU's Max Age
field, default: 20 seconds), before forwarding.  For ports
which are known to be point-to-point through autonegotiation, this
delay is abbreviated to 3 seconds after autonegotiation completes[802.1d].

Upon learning that an adjacent port is running STP or RSTP, the
host may send a Link-Up indication with a 'forwarding available'
parameter upon expiry of calculated delays to indicate that general
packet transfer is available across the LAN.

Hello Everybody -

I would like to bring to the attention of the WG that there are some IPR 
claims attached to the RRD and Prob. Fast RA internet-drafts. The prob. 
fastra claim covers the corresponding section in the design team 
document. With respect to the RRD, priority/hybrid landmark schemes may 
be covered.

I have been working hard to have a clean licensing terms notice sent to 
IETF. It will be very useful for me in doing this if I can get a sense 
of the WG interest in these ideas. I, obviously, feel a combination of 
priority landmark with prob. fastra makes for a good DNA solution. I am 
sure others may have different choices. Looking forward to a spirited 
debate ;-). But, a measure of the general interest level in these ideas 
from the WG will help me in getting an IPR statement acceptable to the 
WG done soon so that we can move on with the technical discussion.

Please comment.

thanks & regards,
Sathya

Abstract:

 

A handover is the process during which a mobile node is handed over between
access networks. Especially for vertical handovers in overlay networks the
mobile node changes the access network using multiple interfaces including
different link layers, e.g., WLAN, GPRS, and UMTS. Handovers occur as a
consequence of lower layer (i.e., link-layer) handovers that signify a
switch of the physical connection to a new location. For the duration of a
handover, a mobile node is unable to send or receive traffic. The length of
this disruption is considered critical because it affects the performance of
the communication. An additional factor is the link layer selection. It
implies the selection of the most suitable link layer from which a mobile
node should receive services. 
With the help of DNA it is possible on one side to provide proactive
handover decision for mobility protocols (e.g., for MIPv6) and on the other
side to select the best link layer including multiple interface support.
This draft describes a method that allows seamless handovers and optimal
link layer selection using a proactive handover decision that is based on a
policy. The policy considers L2 information and DNA assumptions.

Hi DNA WG,

Does anyone who's had a chance to look at the DT solutions discussion
document have an opinion on the coverage of the topic?

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-dnadt-dna-discussion-00.txt

I was hoping to find out if there are any large areas (or small ones)
that we did not consider but should have.

For those that want the short version:

The basic asssumptions that we made were that:
- hints from layer 2 would be available to trigger router solicitations
- link-scope multicast packets are able to reach all routers on a link
   with a loss probability < 1.
- hosts with interfaces that can connect to more than one link at once
   are able to distinguish packets from those different links.

It was felt that the information required for configuration change, if
required is carried in an RA, so in genereal an RS/RA exchange will be
needed and it is possible that this is all that will be needed.

There are then two parts to DNA:
1. Crafting the information in the RS/RA so that a host can accurately
    determine whether its existing IP configuration is valid, and if not,
    have enough information to start reconfiguration.
2. Getting an RA as fast as possible.

A number of techniques are discussed to address each of these parts.

1. a) Adding explicit link identfiers to RAs - both the random kind
       and those that are, or are based on prefixes in use on the link.

    b) Including all prefixes in use on a link into RAs, with appropriate
       flags, etc. to ensure that prefixes that are not explicitly
       configured on a router are not used as though they are.

    c) Getting hosts to include some feature of a link (prefix, router
       address, etc) in the RS and allowing routers to include flags in
       the RA that indicate whether this feature is present on the link.

    d) Getting hosts to include their current default router address in
       the RS and requiring that that router respond immediately if
       present.

2. a) Allowing link access devices (like APs) to cache RAs and deliver
       them as soon as they detect a host connecting to the link.

    b) Allowing one of the routers on a link to respond immediately to
       RSs.

    c) Allowing the routers on a link to negotiate amongst themselves an
       ordering for responding to RSs, and having them respond
       sequentially at fixed intervals starting from no delay.

    d) Allowing routers to respond sequentially as in c) but based on
       some function of the addresses of the other routers and some
       feature of the RS.

    e) Allowing routers to respond to RSs with small randomised slotted
       delays that are based on the number of other routers detected on
       the link.

The document discusses some of the pros and cons of these techniques
as well as dealing with routers that behave as per RFC2461, putting
the pieces together and some discussion of security concerns.

There is also an assumption that DNA is complete when the host has
decided whether its current IP configuration is likely to be valid
or not (link change has occured or not).  It should then have enough
information to go on with SAA or to initiate DHCP, and possibly go on
with other authentication required to reach the global Internet, if
necessary.

All comments appreciated.
Brett.

I was thinking about this particular assumption we made while driving to work today. I checked 2461 and in section 6.3.7, the following statements are made:

"To obtain Router Advertisements quickly, a host SHOULD transmit up to MAX_RTR_SOLICITATIONS Router Solicitation messages each separated by at least RTR_SOLICITATION_INTERVAL seconds."

and
"
Before a host sends an initial solicitation, it SHOULD delay the transmission for a random amount of time between 0 and MAX_RTR_SOLICITATION_DELAY.  This serves to alleviate congestion when many hosts start up on a link at the same time, such as might happen   after recovery from a power failure."

What does 'initial solicitation' mean in ,'Before a host sends an initial solicitation ...'? - does this refer to the RS sent when 'The interface is initialized at system startup time' or 'The host re-attaches to a link after being detached for some time'?

The values for these three variables are:
MAX_RTR_SOLICITATION_DELAY        1 second
RTR_SOLICITATION_INTERVAL         4 seconds
MAX_RTR_SOLICITATIONS             3 transmissions

The MAX_RTR_SOLICITATIONS limit is alright. But, the requirment to delay between 0..1 seconds before sending RS, and maintain inter-RS delay of 4 seconds, I think, will have a negative impact on rapid DNA. BTW, both the restrictions are 'SHOULD's. 

Does it make sense to consider relaxing these conditions? 0..1 seconds delay restriction is useful though in avoiding congestion if many hosts change their points of attachment at the same time.

with regards,
Sathya

Hi Sathya,

I seem to remember some discussion on this on the old mobile-ip list
some time ago, but I don't think there were any concrete conclusions.

As you say, they are all "SHOULDs" so there's no immediate show
stoppers, but all should be considered carefully.

MAX_RTR_SOLICITATIONS is not really an issue, since the section also
says later:

    Once the host sends a Router Solicitation, and receives a valid
    Router Advertisement with a non-zero Router Lifetime, the host MUST
    desist from sending additional solicitations on that interface, until
    the next time one of the above events occurs.  Moreover, a host

where the "above events" include attaching to a link for the first time.

RTR_SOLICITATION_INTERVAL could potentially slow things down if a host
is moving rapidly between links (less than 4 sec on a link), however the
text doesn't seem to say that "a host can never send RSs spaced closer
RTR_SOLICITATION_INTERVAL".  The implication seems to be that when a
host is trying to get an RA on a link, it should space its RSs by
RTR_SOLICITATION_INTERVAL until it gets an RA and then stop.  If it
got a hint that it had moved to a new link, it could start the whole
process again.  At least that's my interpretation.

MAX_RTR_SOLICITATION_DELAY is a trickier one.  As you note it is a
"SHOULD" delay.  Perhaps on power-up a host might delay, but not when
movement is detected, but still doesn't address the issue of a whole
lot of mobile nodes in a fast moving vehicle.  I think Greg has done
some simulations on groups of nodes moving at once and may have some
comment to add.

Cheers,
Brett.

Hello Brett -

I agree - they are all 'SHOULDs' - but some information on the 
implementations will be useful?

The problem with RTR_SOLICITATION_INTERVAL is not only when a node is 
moving rapidly between links, it will also cause problems when there is 
packet loss. If the packet loss probability is p, then the prob of  a 4 
second delay being added will be (p + p^NR) where NR is the number of 
routers on the link that can respond. If NR is 1, the prob is 2p. I 
don't know if this is acceptable, so we can ignore this. My gut feeling 
is that we can not. We must be a bit more resilient to packet loss 
problems, 4 seconds is too much. I think it will be useful to 
differentiate the delay between re-transmission of RS becasue RA was not 
received, from delay between RS with a corresponding RA  and another 
following RS due to link trigger. In the later case, 4 second delay 
could avoid too many RS message due to fluctuating wireless link signal.

And, I agree,  MAX_RTR_SOLICITATION_DELAY is the trickier one.

rgds,
Sathya

To: IETF-Announce@ietf.org


I am pleased to announce the results of the 2004-2005
NomCom selection process. The IAB has approved the IESG
candidates and the ISOC board has approved the IAB
candidates. Please welcome them in their roles:

IESG
----
IETF Chair/General Area Director - Brian Carpenter
Applications Area Director - Ted Hardie
Internet Area Director - Mark Townsley
Operations and Management Area Director - David Kessens
Security Area Director - Russ Housley
Routing Area Director - Bill Fenner
Transport Area Director - Jon Peterson

IAB
---
Bernard Aboba
Loa Andersson
Kurtis Lindqvist
Dave Meyer
Pekka Nikander
Lixia Zhang

Many people deserve to be thanked. First, thanks are due to
all of those who volunteered to serve on the NomCom, and
especially to those who were randomly selected and served as
voting members of the NomCom. They contributed considerable
time from their busy schedules to participate in several calls a
week, to conduct interviews, to read questionnaires and lots of
email, and of course, to make the difficult selection of
candidates. Likewise, all the liaisons for providing guidance to
the NomCom team. Finally, to Rich Draves (and all past
NomCom chairs), for providing considerable guidance and
foundation on which to base our efforts.

We offer our sincere apologies to all those affected by our
tardiness - all I can say is that our latent delivery was
resultant of certain "non-group think" and considerable due
diligence on a huge slate of excellent nominees, and we do
believe our careful consideration was in the best interest of
the IETF.

Thanks to those in the community who volunteered to serve on
the IESG and the IAB, both to those who were selected and
those not chosen this time around. Thanks very much for
completing the questionnaires and participating in interview process.

Thanks are also due to the IETF community as a whole for
providing input to the process through nominations,
recommendations, and feedback on potential candidates.

Voting Members:

Alia Atlas
Andrew Lange
Chris Liljenstolpe
Juha Wiljakka
Lakshminath Dondeti
Magnus Westerlund
Markus Isomaki
Matt Larson
Russ White
Stewart Bryant

Non-voting Members:

Eric Rescorla (IAB Liaison)
Alex Zinin (IESG Liaison)
Steve Crocker (ISOC Liaison)
Richard Draves (Previous Chair/Advisor)
Danny McPherson (Chair)

Thanks,

Hi Sathya,


RFC2461bis seems to indicate that in the furture it
may be possible to ignore MAX_RTR_SOLICITATION_DELAY.
It's really our task to guess or show if/where it can be done.

Here's the text (page 3: draft-ietf-ipv6-2461bis-02.txt):

"...

    In some cases, the random delay MAY be omitted if necessary. For
    instance, a mobile node, using [MIPv6], moving to a new link would
    need to discover such movement as soon as possible to minimize the
    amount of packet losses resulting from the change in its topological
    movement. Router Solicitations provide a useful tool for movement
    detection in Mobile IPv6 as they allow mobile nodes to determine
    movement to new links. Hence, if a mobile node received link layer
    information indicating that movement might have taken place, it MAY
    send a Router Solicitation immediately, without random delays. The
    strength of such indications should be assessed by the mobile node's
    implementation depending on the level of certainty of the link layer
    hints and is outside the scope of this specification. Note that using
    this mechanism inappropriately (e.g. based on weak or transient
    indications) may result in Router Solicitation storms. Furthermore,
    simultaneous mobility of a large number of mobile nodes that use this
    mechanism can result in a large number of solicitations sent
    simultaneously.

..."


So there has to be management of link-layer indication->RS requirement
within the host, and potential application of delays on certain link
layers.

Below is a rough overview of some work I did a while ago using a locally
created OMNeT++ 802.11 simulation (the simulation has since been
published, but doesn't have the test scenario).

I have to apologise that I've left this on the side for a while and
don't have published results to display.

 From my experience with simulations of up to 30 alike MNs simultaneously
changing cell (hard handover threshold, super-imposed hosts receiving
an 802.11 beacon below the threshold), there were MAC collision bands
for RS's sent to the network.

In a lot of these cases, there were L2 probing collisions when scanning
channels, which meant that some of the MNs didn't know about the base
station's presence because they were unaware of the collision (the probe
is a multicast frame, with no ACK).

These devices found the same base station (since no other valid one was
nearby) on the second probe pass.  This meant that there were tiers of
successful probe responses, and subsequent authentication and association.
It is notable that probe responses weren't being snooped regardless of
MAC address.  This would have tightened things up considerably.

Across all the tiers, there was a lot of contention in the MAC and
delay was experienced in responses to the RS's.   Each bridged RS
received a unicast RA.

Mostly the cause of the delay in RA responses through the AP was the
nodes still attempting to get onto the link through 802.11 procedures.
This caused a queue backlog issue to arise so that around 20ms delay
was experienced for the RTT for the RS/RA pairs.

The spread in delays of hosts changing cells increased fairly steadily
until 30 nodes.

Here's the 30 hosts incidence plot for the delay after RS that an RA
was received using one millisecond buckets. The incidences were
summed over the simulation runs. Please be aware that the values are for
the middle of the millisecond range (so it works for box plots).

The actual delay for beginning to probe until the reception of the RA
was much more spread out. I can send similar data to individuals
in order to get an impression, but I'd prefer not to send larger
attachments.

As you can see, this data is not really ready for publication,
but may give an indication of what occurs on one of the interesting 
link-layers.

There's a lot more to actually test (for example the effect on other
hosts within a cell).

The (rough) impression I got was that there wasn't much harm in having
no additional RS serialization delay in 802.11b.

Greg

Greg -

I am not sure I understood the data itself. But, I get your point. It may a good idea for you to make a short presentation on this in MN meeting. ;-) We could try to come to conclusion on the issue of 'serialization of RS messages' - becos our next step is likely to be very different based on our decision.

Its good that 2461bis is already relaxing the MAX_RTR_SOLICITATION_DELAY constraint. May be its better to reduce the value from 1 second to say 10 or 20 milli-sec rather than completely getting rid of it.

On a related point, as part of the solutions - do we plan on keeping the RA response as unicast response.  We could possibly avoid multiple RS messages being sent on the the link by using multicast RA response.  Hosts that were random-delaying for the RS message could cancel the RS message if it receives the required information in a multicast-RA message.

thanks & regards,
Sathya

Hi Sathya,

Using your approximation, then the order of magnitude of the probability
of encountering the 4 second delay is the same as the probablility of
packet loss.  Whether this is a problem or not depends on what cost is
applied to a slow detection.  What's a reasonable packet loss rate to
consider?  10^-3?  A slow detection every thousand or so.  Is that too
bad?  It may be for some applications; I'm not sure.

As Greg mentioned, there may be scope to modify the behavior.  Perhaps
some kind of exponential backoff rather than a fixed 4 second delay?

Brett.

Well, I'll see what I can do to see if there's more results i can
produce.

It's not likely that I'll make a separate presentation, but may
have some slides (graphics) to show.  The test scenario was quite
limited, so the applicability may not be wide.

Actually, I think hysteresis on hint actiosn is likely to be useful,
rather than induced delay in the event of our own handover.
Certainly on some media it may be useful to keep the delays in some
form, but I hope not to have delays in general.

I think I see your point.

In some cases, I think the packets were queued at MAC for a while,
and can't be recalled.  Those packets will go out anyway.

The random delay does help in this case, but the host knows nothing 
about the network.

RS affects (hoepfully, if multicast snoop filters work on base-stations)
only a single cell, whereas an RA consumes bandwidth on all cells in the 
link uniformly (and may wake sleeping nodes).

for multi-cell environments, it's probably better to control things from
the router side.

Just my ideas at the moment.

Greg

Hi Brett, Satya,Greg,

=> IMHO, thats quite a valid interpretation.

If people don't have any objection,
I've been asked to move the CPL discussion up the list to
