But that is why we have the RFC 2119 keywords; and they do have value
when working out what to test at an interop. I think it would be
safer, even if logically redeundant, to prefix section 10 with a sentence
stating that the listed values MUST be used. Also there are some lower
case "shoulds" in the paragraph about ReachableTime - are those
intended to be normative?

=> I agree with this. Pekka himself mentioned that this is not a compliant
behviour according to 2461. A contant is a *contant*, which means it doesn't
change :) ....
Variables are also given max and min values, which by the english meaning of
max and min implies that you can't go outside those boundaries. So I don't
see the gain in adding that "protocol constants MUST be used" or something
like that.

=> I don't think this spec is the right place for it. Let me give some
context to the discussion. The term p-to-p links is actually a larger
umbrella than its common use seems to imply. Under this umbrella you'll find
many cellular *systems* that emulate their systems as point to point links.
The requirements vary significantly. And unfortunately, due to the lack of
good definitions and common language we will find that a lot of people will
have their own requirements (initiated by their systems) for point to point
links. As far as ND is concerned point to point links have a narrow meaning
(mainly related to multicast support). 

BTW, this topic was supposed to be included to the charter according to the
meeting in San Francisco a few years ago but I don't know what happened to
it. 

 >

 > addresses.  But does this mean that a host should do a MLD JOIN on a

=> The spec says that nothing needs to be done for those links, so yes do an
MLD join, what's wrong with that? It may be inefficient, but it doesn't
break anything in the spec AFAIK.

Does this mean that a packet sent to a 
 > link-local
 > multicast address sent by one end should be received by the

 > w/o doing MLD  JOIN.  

=> Please see above.

   Does this mean the node should join the

 > point-to-point link?

=> Why not? That's the default operation in the spec and it clearly states
that nothing needs to be done differently for those links.

 > headers, typically point to point.  

=> No link layer header? I guess you mean no link layer addresses.

   For example, is it mandatory to

=> I think that's pretty obvious from the condition in the text. The
inclusion is bound to the existence of an address. 

   I think it should

=> It's not silent IMO, it does say it.

=> No we can't, the IID is in a completely different layer. The fact that
you can use an L2 address to generate the IID, does not mean you can use the
IID as an L2 address.

At least they don't change for implementations on the same link-layer type.

Exactly.

Agreed, but explicitly stating it would seem to reduce the likelihood that designers/implementers would stray. I say 'reduce' as opposed to 'eliminate' as in other cases I've seen implementations hard-code variable values where the spec explicitly said they MUST be configurable.

Emulate as ptp links?  Sounds strange.  I thought they'd emulate shared
links over ptp.  What are these systems you mention?  I think you may be
wrong cell-system ptp links are emulated.  Emulation of what on top of what.

I think maybe you don't talk about emulation but about real ppp
interfaces provided by a wide range of cell-systems.

It still holds that ppp protocol runs over a very wide range of such
cellular point to point links, regardless of the system builders
requirements.

Well, ND to run over ppp links means ND to run on much more than just
cell-systems.  All these are concerned by ND clarifications.

I was not aware of that.  I'm not after a new Charter item, just
document clarification for pursuing along the Standards Track.

That reads like a suggestion for a 'MAY', to which I somehow agree.

In a certain context, widespread IP implementations qualify a p2p link
as non-ND capable, while by your interpretation the spec says nothing
should be done about those links - if so just remove all the p2p
language from ND text.

Well that's a hidden statement; it should better say "do MLD on p2p
links".  Or say "don't do MLD on p2p links", or MAY or so.
Implementations don't.

I meant both.  On most ptp links the IP stack doesn't build a link-layer
header and there are no link-layer addresses; on some IEEE ptp links
there's an id identifying the pair of two ends.

It says it "SHOULD" include a TLLAO in the NA for a received unicasted
NS.  It doesn't condition that "SHOULD" on the existence of link-layer
addresses.  The condition is on the "MUST" and on the NA multicasted.

Some implementation doesn't send NS to multicast addresses on the ptp
link.  So the implementer is left with the text that doesn't have that
condition.

I agree it may be a generic problem with long "MUST" phrases, but it's
obviously a clarification needed (IMHO).

read again:

Is there a non-written "and" between "have addresses" and "when
responding to multicast"?  Or an "or"?  How do you like to read it?

Ok, I tend to think the same, too.  But ppp gives an Interface ID and
there's no other means in ppp to have an endpoint identifier.  So the
easiest way for ND to run over ppp would be to build some virtual
link-layer headers with Interface IDs in it.  All other ND mechanisms
(multicast, DAD, etc) would run unmodified.

We build virtual headers for csum and other AHish stuff, so why not for
ND on ptp links.

Widespread packet capture software builds 'cooked' headers too.

An "Interface ID" is exactly what ND needs on a ppp link.

I'm very much opposed to this idea.  Those Interface IDs are not link
layer addresses.  ND options including link layer addresses should be
added _only_ when link layer addresses exist on the underlying media
-- and they don't exist for point-to-point links.

I fear changing this behavior to include Interface IDs instead of link
layer addresses will confuse and break existing implementations.

> An "Interface ID" is exactly what ND needs on a ppp link.

Disagree.  Why does it need _any_ link layer address?  Why should it
care?

Indeed -- but maybe I was not explicit enough.  I see three things 
here:

  1) With most of these constants, there is no interoperability issue
     if an implementation were to choose different values.  Quickly
     looking, I wasn't able to see any defined constant that the
     current protocol would require to be exactly the way it is for
     interoperability.

     Instead, this is more of an issue of harmonizing protocol
     behaviour across implementations, not so much about
     interoperability.

  2) Strictly speaking, if constants are normative, if an
     implementation has (say) REACHABLE_TIME of 10 seconds (three times
     "faster" than the spec) it should be considered incompliant.

  3) in some other protocols what we have defined as constants could
     very well have been defined as suggested default values (for
     example).

This is more than strictly required for interoperability.

Hello again, 

This is a follow up on the comments we discussed earlier. Ralph, please let
me know if you're ok with my suggestions below. The document is waiting on
your response! The rest of your comments are all in the document.

=> So here is the text for the section in question: 

  point-to-point - Neighbor Discovery handles such links just like
                   multicast links.  (Multicast can be trivially
                   provided on point-to-point links, and interfaces
                   can be assigned link-local addresses.)  


  multicast      - Neighbor Discovery supports multicast capable 
                   links as described in this document.

=> I've clarified the definition a bit more:

   L              1-bit on-link flag.  When set, indicates that this
                  prefix can be used for on-link determination.  When
                  not set the advertisement makes no statement about
                  on-link or off-link properties of the prefix. In 
                  other words, if the L flag is not set a host MUST 
                  NOT assume that an addresse derived from the prefix 
                  is on-link unless it is explicitly told in another 
                  message (e.g. Redirect). For instance, the prefix 
                  might be used for address configuration with some 
                  of the addresses belonging to the prefix being on-
                  link and others being off-link.

Any objections?

Hesham - you're suggested revisions are fine with me.

One typo - in the text for the on-link flag, s/addresse/address/

And, at the risk of being overly picky, after searching through the RFC for
occurrences of "autoconfiguration", it seems there is some inconsistency in
the use of other related terms, like autoconfiguration and address
autoconfiguration (used for both SLAAC and DHCP).

The definition in the terminology section seems OK:

     Address Autoconfiguration: How nodes automatically configure an
                address for an interface.

...referring to both stateless address autoconfiguration and DHCP.

Howvever, at the end of section 2.3:

                 (e.g., while verifying an address is unused
                 during address autoconfiguration [ADDRCONF])

While this is not normative text, I use it as an example.  If, in this case,
"address autoconfiguration" refers to just SLAAC, it should be "stateless
address autoconfiguration".  On the other hand, if "address
autoconfiguration" is correct, then there should be a reference to DHCPv6
(RFC 3315) as well as [ADDRCONF].

As another example, at the end of section 4.2:

      Prefix Information
                     These options specify the prefixes that are on-link
                     and/or are used for address autoconfiguration.

Here, the reference should be to "stateless address autoconfiguration"; the
prefix information is not used by a host using DHCP.

I apologize for noticing this issue at the last minute.  In response to the
question about "stateless autoconfiguration" and "autonomous
autoconfiguration", I wanted to see if there were other phrases using
"autoconfiguration".  That search lead to the discovery of the inconsistent
uses of "autoconfiguration".

=> Understood. I'll do a search and change it where it needs to be changed,
I'm assuming the above doesn't cover all places.

=> No problems, they're all good catches. Thanks for your feedback and quick
response. 
I intend to submit the draft tomorrow.

I think that's the key point.  It's very important to make sure that
the things marked as "MUST" or "MUST NOT" are actually requirements
for interoperability or anticipated development, and not just needless
strictures.

Otherwise, it becomes much more tedious to support enviroments that
require slightly different values or implementations that trade off
simplicity against precision.

(Given that I've encountered test suites that enforce even "MAY"
clauses, I think caution about over-specifying things is warranted.)

Hesham,

Regarding the new sentence under the 'L' bit definition:
             =20
>                   In=20
>                   other words, if the L flag is not set a host MUST=20
>                   NOT assume that an addresse derived from the prefix=20
>                   is on-link unless it is explicitly told in another=20
>                   message (e.g. Redirect).

the on-link property of an address need not be due to a
message, e.g., it could be due to manual config. Suggest
rewriting as:

  "In other words, if the L flag is not set a host MUST NOT
   assume that an address derived from the prefix is on-link
   unless it is explicitly told through some other means
   (e.g. Redirect)."

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Version 6 Working Group Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Neighbor Discovery for IP version 6 (IPv6)
	Author(s)	: T. Narten, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ipv6-2461bis-10.txt
	Pages		: 88
	Date		: 2007-1-8
	
This document specifies the Neighbor Discovery protocol for IP
   Version 6.  IPv6 nodes on the same link use Neighbor Discovery to
   discover each other's presence, to determine each other's link-layer
   addresses, to find routers and to maintain reachability information
   about the paths to active neighbors.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipv6-2461bis-10.txt

To remove yourself from the I-D Announcement list, send a message to 
i-d-announce-request@ietf.org with the word unsubscribe in the body of 
the message. 
You can also visit https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/I-D-announce 
to change your subscription settings.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the 
username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After 
logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then 
"get draft-ietf-ipv6-2461bis-10.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipv6-2461bis-10.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

It isn't just multicast DNS that depends on the use of multicast --
there are many protocols (including neighbor discovery) that will
either fail to work properly if multicast is outlawed or will need
modifications or limitations.

This sounds like a syntax error to me.  The system in question
apparently wants to use what are effectively point-to-point links but
is instead modeling as a crippled broadcast-type network.

I say "apparently," because the proposal below wouldn't work unless
there's some central node involved.  As part of resolving that IPv6
link-local address to an L2 address, nodes will send multicast
neighbor solicitations.  The apparent fact that this doesn't wake
everyone up means that the network is already partitioned.

Given that use of multicast typically isn't a privileged operation,
how does that central node stop someone from draining everyone else's
batteries anyway, even if this one protocol is fixed?

So, the proposal is that if the hash collides for different names,
then "johnsmith.local" must rename himself, right?

This threat is probably another good reason for not allowing 
multicast.

>From an abstract point of view (hoping to answer all your concerns
above): if we already know the destination's unicast address, then 
we should not send a multicast query. We should send a unicast query.
This is my proposal. This is the conservative approach IMHO.

As an example, we can take WiMax (IPv6 over WiMax is being standardized
by the 16ng WG). In 16ng, the access router has a list of all nodes.
This corresponds to what you call a central node. DAD 
(duplicate address detection) is achieved 
using unicast. This is work in progress. As for neighbor discovery, 
I agree that it is more reliable over L2 multicast. I hope that the
access router can use it to recover from loss of state, but not 
during normal operation (because it is costly). 16ng WG will decide. 

Now one can say: if the WiMax AR knows knows everything, why not 
register the localname->address bindings also to the AR? 

My answer is that installing DNS in a router is going to far. 
I'm proposing a solution for not doing this. The AR speaks IPv6, 
so lets encode the names into IPv6 addresses.

But again, IMHO, from an abstract point of view, unicast will always
be the conservative approach. I.e. not only for WiMax.

Right. Please let me know if you see a problem with this.

My understanding of James remarks is that your proposal merely moves the=20
problem away from DNS to Neighbor Discovery, but does not solve the=20
core issue at all, which is that some kind of multicast/broadcast is=20
needed for non-point-to-point IPv6 links.

I agree.  I'm not sure whether that draft allows this behaviour or not
(send direct DNS message instead of multicast).  It can be suggested though.

They look mostly at 802.16 less at WiMax which is somehow normal to me
since WiMax are moving more than 802.16.

> In 16ng, the access router has a list of all nodes.

Not sure which entity you mention?  Not necessarily WiMax.  I think any
router has a list of its neighbours in NC.

Not sure which document you refer to.  The first DADing NS is sent to
solicited-node multicast address (by rfc2462), and not to unicast address.

Some documents in 16ng talk 'Relay DAD' which would maintain a list and
then unicast a NS; but other signals in WiMax forum seem to indicate
deprecating the use of 'Relay ND' for rfc4541 instead.

Yes, more reliable and mandatory.  Actually IPv6 ND doesn't work at all
over a link-layer that isn't doing multicast link-layer addresses.

Because not scalable?  Ie memory can overflow if too many nodes?

Err...?  If I want to encode my private key and my name into my IPv6
64bits would this work?

you'll also have to cope with networks that aren't using EUI64 or for that
matter aren't using a 64-bit netmask.  and you'll have to cope with hash

L2 broadcast will have to work in order to support ARP.  if your L2 does not
support broadcast at all then i don't know what to suggest beyond some kind
of distinguished destination address that operates a location brokerage for
other services.  if your L2 supports broadcast but at significant power cost
then i suggest we revive bmanning's old DNS DISCOVER proposal.

Thank you for informing me of the re-write.  A few obvious editorial
corrections:

    EMail: Bill.Simpson@um.cc.umich.edu
           bsimpson@MorningStar.com

The former machine hasn't existed since circa 1994, and the latter since
circa 1998.  Easy Googling has given reviewers one of my half dozen
active emails (and notified me of this draft).  I've recently retired
wsimpson@greendragon.com that was on most recent RFCs, as that company
concluded bankruptcy some time ago.

Please replace with my more current email above!  (Hopefully, Gmail will
be useful for the next Internet Lifetime.)

The Introduction has a list of acknowledgments for reviewers.  They
aren't really introductory.  In the past, I've always included them in a
separate ACKNOWLEDGMENTS section, following more usual academic practice.
That also permits more explicit indication of which individuals proposed
which (mis-)features.

Please replace the rampant misuse of "e.g." and "i.e." with the more
appropriate "for example," "such as," "that is," "specifically," or in
many parentheticals simply eliminate it entirely!

Also, it would be better to follow the RFC writing practices that I've
developed for such things as describing state machines, later cited as
exemplary in the Guide for Internet Standards Writers (RFC 2360).  I'd
hoped that a draft derived from my earlier work would continue the clean
style and form, even as it deviates from the substance.

And speaking of substance, I'm not convinced this draft is ready for
prime time.  Far too much continues to be relegated to "further study".
For example, multi-homed hosts are fairly common in operational practice,
and my original 1992-1993 work included them.

After 15 years, greater experience ought to clarify, rather than muddy
the waters.  This should never have made it to Draft Standard.

Moreover, as I've stated before, I'm deeply disappointed that the substance
has departed from my original vision: virtually no configuration for hosts
or routers, other than identifiers and secrets necessary for security.
Although there have been modest improvements in this recent draft, the
elimination of explicit security support has retreated ever farther from
the goal.

That's fine as long as L2 broadcast is infrequent.

Note that L2 broadcast is as costly as L2 multicast.

So, don't bother to say "multicast", when broadcast is harmful which
is the case of CATENET, which is partly why IPv6 failed. IP over 1394
failed, too, because of purposeless attempt to avoid broadcast.

And the address is a multicast address joined by all the hosts with
64bithash("johnsmith.local")=64bithash(DNS name).

Multicast DNS does not imply the Bad (tm) ".local"! Read

I don't necessarily; I was just trying to clarify the proposal.
Fortunately, he can call himself "jacksmith.local" with no loss of
information.

The general multicast issue, though, seems like a hazardous one.  If
it's a walled garden (where users just "can't" send multicast), then
you're obviously free to do anything you like.  You don't even need to
use IP.  If it's not such a deployment, then it seems to me that
outlawing multicast is a near impossible task and trying to modify
protocols to avoid it is a losing proposition.

WiMAX is one system architecture built upon IEEE 802.16 
standard. 

AFAIK 802.16 MAC is point-to-point between a mobile 
station and the base station, and perfectly capable of 
multicast, it's just that at most two nodes can 
receive a multicast packet: the two end of the 
point-to-point link.

It isn't stuck as far as I can see, it's just a member of the queue.

And indeed, as far as I know, there is no TLD called "local".

Let's see... not that I've tried it.

If a ppp peer negotiates an Interface ID and puts it in the Neighbour
Cache attached to the ppp0 entry, won't break anything.  When displaying
the NC the entry simply won't show up empty.

If same ppp peer declares that ppp0 interface nd-capable (instead of
currently declared nd-non-capable), and builds a virtual ll header
structure whose format is (src, dst on 64bits) and then declare some
other constants for special ll multicast addresses then that ppp peer
won't crash.  The issue is what to declare on the other ppp peer.

By existing ND implementations I assume it's meant ND over an ll-full
(an interface with link-layer address).  I think that as long as the
ND/ptp enhancements are applied only on ll-less interfaces that can
generate an IID then the other interfaces' implementations (eth, tun,
etc) won't be affected.  No?

A main ND's goal is to resolve the IP address into a ll address, so if
there's no ll address then no need of ND exchanges (especially no need
of NS/NA).  At which point it would be difficult to say that ND runs
over ll-less addresses ok.  I think.

Wrong.

As I already stated reasons, there is no point not allowing
broadcast.

Hi all,

Thank you all for your comments!

Alex and Julien: thanks for clarifications on 16ng.
Stephane and Brian Carpenter: I used the term .local with 
no particular reason. If recent advances showed that it is 
unnecessary. That's OK for me. I'm not even sure if my
proposal needs to be "local". I can also reach other subnets
in theory (if my host has learned the list of neighboring 
subnets).

I also take note of RFC4541. Thanks.

But I still don't see why I would send a multicast query
if I know the destination's unicast address. Sending the DNS
query directly to the destination may be useful. For example, 
the host may have already resolved the destination's
MAC address (through multicast). But the user is trying many 
different names... (for example). 

My question to Paul Vixie:

Is this an important limitation? (I'm asking the question)

Fortunately, there is no problem with that. If a given name-based
address was accidentally configured the query will be silently 
dropped.

I have no problem with that.

Who cares what happens at L2? That is not a concern to IP.

If you are really saying that over a WiMax network, IP multicast is
not supported, well, I would expect that this will be a problem for
any application that relies on multicast. Presumably the market will
sort out whether this is a problem or not.

Yes, it will break something.

  - Such a system will send Neighbor Advertisements that include the
    Target link-layer address option.  If that message is sent to a
    peer that does *not* include this 'feature', then, from the peer's
    point of view, the option will include a bogus hardware address.

    The result is likely a loss of connectivity, as the peer may try
    (unsuccessfully) to send to a link-layer address that doesn't
    exist.

  - Such a system will receive Neighbor Advertisements from its peer
    that do not include the Target link-layer address option.  What
    will it do?  Per section 7.2.5 of RFC 2461, and because the system
    mistakenly believes that point-to-point links have L2 addresses,
    it will just *DISCARD* those messages, and will never attain
    REACHABLE state.  Again, that leads to a loss of connectivity.

The latter of those two seems crucial to me.

Worse still, the ID numbers you're talking about are negotiated by
PPP.  This means that both ends of the link are already keenly aware
of the ID numbers in use.  It serves no purpose whatsoever to have the
peers telling each other something that they already know.  It's a
solution off in search of a problem.

I'm not sure what you're talking about here.  There's no such
"nd-capable" feature in the system I work on.  In fact, I suspect
having such a feature may be a design flaw, as RFC 2461 makes it
pretty clear that ND is supposed to run on all links using IPv6.

Virtual LL header?  I don't know what that is.

That part is correct.  Non-point-to-point interfaces are not affected
by your proposal.

But I believe interoperability for existing point-to-point systems is
destroyed.

Actually, ND does more than that.  It verifies that the peer actually
has the IPv6 address in question.  If it doesn't have that address,
then it doesn't respond, and you end up with an unreachable
destination.  This is part of the "unreachability detection" logic.

It also has at least one "special" feature, which is the "R" bit.
Peers can detect which one (or both) is a router.

I disagree.  The current RFC makes clear provisions for links (such as
point-to-point links) that lack link-layer addressing.  I think
implementations should follow the current RFC advice.

I do agree that ND has only somewhat marginal value on point-to-point
links, but I don't think that implies that it should now be changed in
an incompatible manner.

But we can build new applications comfortably if we know that the

JAmes, yes, it's a solution in search of a problem.  There are problems
in search of solutions too although not so apparent now.  For example ND
over tunnel interfaces, etc.

For below items: (1) yes, IID as ll addresses may break legacy systems
but then one could define new option Target 'Virtual' ll address so
legacy will ignore them, (2) yes ND exchanging IIDs is redundant with
ppp doing same, but then ND doesn't use ppp's IIDs in the NC either, (3)
  on system I work on ppp links never exchange NS/NA, (4) 'Virtual' Link
Layer header is like 'Cooked' header in Ethereal captures over tunnel
ifaces, (5) yes ND is about NUD too and finally (6) yes implementations
should follow current RFCs and no incompatible extensions should be
advanced.

Thanks,

Alex

I suspect that doing so implies the use of point-to-point links
(rather than what appears to be broadcast emulation), and reducing
energy costs would seem to require having cached data available on the
single peer node to avoid querying "everybody."

	yes?
	you mean the DISCOVER ID that is -still- in the RFCED queue?	
	(and has been in one form or another for the past eight years?)

	sigh... let me ramp up here.
	do you want the code  (8.1.2 based and haq'ed into 9.3.1 ) or do you want to

The problem was, AFAIR, that allocating opcodes requires a Standards
Action.  No experimental spec can do that.  If DISCOVER is to be 
revived it will need to use one of other publication processes.

With the obvious example of you,

            link-local subnet prefix | 64bithash("johnsmith.local")

supporting a L3 multicast address over broadcast L1 is just as
costly as supporting a L3 unicast address over broadcast L1,
regardless of L2 specific details.

Wireless L2 protocols not supporting L3 multicast is just poor.

In addition, wireless L2 protocols can also naturally support
L2 broadcast. If power consumption of terminals but not central
stations is the issue, broadcast can be issued only from (or
relayed by) central stations and can be rate limited.

Thus, all the properly designed L3 or upper protocols can enjoy
properly designed L2 multicast at any rate and L2 broadcast maybe
with rate limitation. It has nothing specific to mDNS.

However, there is an IPv6 design flaw that all the nodess join
all-nodes multicast, which is just a common multicast address
for L2. The flaw was derived from a misconception that multicast
were less costly than broadcast, though broadcast is less costly
than multicast.

All-nodes multicast can cost a lot if someone use it frequently.

For example, ND is specified with:

   o  MinRtrAdvInterval 0.03 seconds

That is, as IPv6 is not propderly designed, L2 under it MAY
suppress multicast entirely and SHOULD supress the all-nodes
multicast address.

A dirty workaround is to supress rate of L2 address of all-nodes
multicast and never use the same L2 address for other rate-unlimited
multicast addresses.

With the obvious example of you,

            link-local subnet prefix | 64bithash("johnsmith.local")

supporting a L3 multicast address over broadcast L1 is just as
costly as supporting a L3 unicast address over broadcast L1,
regardless of L2 specific details.

Wireless L2 protocols not supporting L3 multicast is just poor.

In addition, wireless L2 protocols can also naturally support
L2 broadcast. If power consumption of terminals but not central
stations is the issue, broadcast can be issued only from (or
relayed by) central stations and can be rate limited.

Thus, all the properly designed L3 or upper protocols can enjoy
properly designed L2 multicast at any rate and L2 broadcast maybe
with rate limitation. It has nothing specific to mDNS.

However, there is an IPv6 design flaw that all the nodess join
all-nodes multicast, which is just a common multicast address
for L2. The flaw was derived from a misconception that multicast
were less costly than broadcast, though broadcast is less costly
than multicast.

All-nodes multicast can cost a lot if someone use it frequently.

For example, ND is specified with:

   o  MinRtrAdvInterval 0.03 seconds

That is, as IPv6 is not propderly designed, L2 under it MAY
suppress multicast entirely and SHOULD supress the all-nodes
multicast address.

A dirty workaround is to supress rate of L2 address of all-nodes
multicast and never use the same L2 address for other rate-unlimited
multicast addresses.

because the IESG has turned over N times during those 8 years, and the idea
is still solid and useful and interesting, and the current proposed RFC is
experimental, and most importantly, because the need for it will continue to
resurface until we push it over the top of the hill and roll it down to the
town.

I really do not understand you. Try in French :-) Because, obviously,
if it is unicast, it is not multicast :-)

Also, it is not really DNS, it is LLMNR (same packet format, many
similar concepts but a different protocol).

i think so, but it's a subjective matter.  we're funded to do some early
DHCPv6 work at the moment, showing that at least one large company in the
world doesn't think stateless autoconfig is the right way to go.  i think
there's also reason to believe that the "/64 per LAN" ideology might be
tied to the stateless autoconfig ideology.  (DHCPv6 and /112's work fine.)

Not unecessary: bad. If I'm correct, it is bad because everyone would
have a ".local" and merging of two organizations would become a
nightmare. It is quite easy and cheap to get a real domain name so
every organization, even non connected, should use one.

The domain name in use has nothing to do with the fact that the
protocol is routable or single-link. Different layers.

Again, *read* draft-ietf-dnsext-mdns-47.txt, the use of unicast is
clearly possible (section 2.4).

I really do not understand you. Try in French :-) Because, obviously,
if it is unicast, it is not multicast :-)

Also, it is not really DNS, it is LLMNR (same packet format, many
similar concepts but a different protocol).

i think so, but it's a subjective matter.  we're funded to do some early
DHCPv6 work at the moment, showing that at least one large company in the
world doesn't think stateless autoconfig is the right way to go.  i think
there's also reason to believe that the "/64 per LAN" ideology might be
tied to the stateless autoconfig ideology.  (DHCPv6 and /112's work fine.)

	of course, the justification for requiring a Standards Track action
	for the allocation of an opcode was never questioned.  the impediment
	that such a requirement places on development is so onerous that many
	folks just ignore the IETF's strictures and don't bring their work 
	to that forum.  Who was it that promoted an RFC on getting allocations
	for experimental use?  Can't remember who that was, but it was a little
	to late.   DISCOVER is in no shape to be a full-fledged Standards track
	item.  It IS an idea that is worthy of further use/experimentation to 
	see if it can be integrated into a data-driven networking architecture.
	And for that reason, it is worthy of an opcode assignment.  But, thats
	my opinion and we know what that is worth.

Hi Remi,=20

(Sorry for the delay, I'm trying to respond to each mail but
I rate limited myself)

The main idea of my proposal was:

"If it works using unicast, then we *really* don't care what=20
happens at L2."

Is it multicast capable or not? It is poor design or not? Is it=20
costly or not ? (in terms of energy and signaling)... All these=20
questions would disappear. That was my point.


But folks say: multicast is a MUST. I can't really argue=20
against that.

Quick reminder:

The responder configured IPv6 address from hash(name).
The query is sent to that unicast address.

For example John wants to reach Carol. But Carol isn't here. 
Instead there is David. And accidentally hash(Carol)=hash(David).

The DNS query(Carol) will be received by David. 
David can silently drop it. Or he can respond: I'm not Carol. 

I missed something?

	unicast is a degenerative case of multicast.

	LLMNR is not DNS mostly 'cause the IESG mandated it.
	one could easly see this as DNS on a different port#.

Abstract

   This document describes the DISCOVER opcode, an experimental
   extension to the Domain Name System (DNS) to use multicast queries
   for resource discovery.  A client multicasts a DNS query using the
   DISCOVER opcode and processes the multiple responses that may
   result.

1. Introduction

   In the standard Domain Name System (DNS) [3] [4], queries are always
   unicast using the QUERY opcode.  The TBDS research project, funded
   under DARPA grant F30602-99-1-0523, explored the use of multicast
   DNS [3][4] queries for resource discovery.  Multicast queries may
   return multiple replies, while the standard DNS QUERY operation [5]
   expects a single reply.  Instead of extending the QUERY
   opcode, the project developed and tested a new query operation,
   DISCOVER, that is designed to accommodate multiple responses from a
   multicast query.  This memo documents the processing rules for
   DISCOVER, for possible incorporation in a future revision of the DNS
   specification.

2. DISCOVER Processing Rules

   A requester will send a DISCOVER query message to a multicast
   destination address, with some particular multicast scope.  The
   requester must be prepared to receive multiple replies from multiple
   responders, although we expect that there will be a single reply
   per responder.

   DISCOVER responses (i.e., response messages from DISCOVER queries)
   have standard Answer, Authority, and Additional sections.  For
   example, the DISCOVER response is the same as the response to a
   QUERY operation.  Zero-content answers should not be sent, to avoid
   badly formed or unfulfilled requests.  Responses should be sent to
   th unicast address of the requester, and the source address should
   reflect the unicast address of the responder.  DISCOVER responses
   may echo the request's Question section or leave it blank, just as
   for QUERY.

   DISCOVER works like QUERY, except:

	1. The Question section of a DISCOVER operation contains
	   <QNAME=zonename,QTYPE=SOA> tuples, if the section is
           present.

 	   Within TBDS, this structure was augmented with:
	   <QNAME=service,QTYPE=SRV>.  While this worked, it would be
	   cleaner to ask the SRV question in a separate pass, and any
	   future work should take this into consideration.

        2. If QDCOUNT equals 0, then only servers willing to do recursion
	   should answer; other servers must silently discard a DISCOVER 
           request with QDCOUNT equals 0. 

        3. if QDCOUNT is not equal to 0, then only servers that are 
	   authoritative for the zones named by some QNAME should answer.

     Hence, replies to DISCOVER queries will always be authoritative or
     else have RA (Recursion Available) set.

3. Using DISCOVER Queries

3.1  Performing Host Lookups

   To perform a hostname lookup using DISCOVER, a node could:

     o  Compute the zone name of the enclosing in-addr.arpa, ip6.int, or
        ip6.arpa domain.

     o  DISCOVER whether any in-scope server(s) are authoritative for
        this zone.

                If so, query these authoritative servers for local
                in-addr/ip6 names.

     o  If not, DISCOVER whether there are recursive servers available.

                If so, query these recursive servers for local
                in-addr/ip6 names.

        The requester can determine from the replies whether there are
	any DNS servers that are authoritative (or support recursion)
	for the zone.

     o  Once the host's FQDN is known, repeat the process to
        discover the closest enclosing authoritative server for
        this local name.

     o  Cache all NS and A data learned in this process, respecting TTL's.

3.2 Performing Service Lookups

   To lookup a service name using DISCOVER, the following steps may be
   used:

     o  Use DISCOVER as outlines in Section 3.1 to perform
	gethostbyaddr() and then gethostbyname() on one's own
	link-local address.  This gives a list of local authoritative
        servers.

     o  Assume that the closest enclosing zone for which an
        authoritative server responds to an in-scope DISCOVER message is
        this host's "parent domain", and compute the SRV name as

	       _service._transport.*.parentdomain.

	This is a change to the definition as defined in RFC 1034 [3].
	A wildcard label ("*") in the QNAME used in a DNS message with
	op-code DISCOVER should be evaluated with special rules: the
	wildcardshould match any label for which the DNS server data is
	authoritative.  For example 'x.*.example.com.' would match
	'x.y.example.com.' and 'x.yy.example.com.', provided that the
	server was authoritative for 'example.com.'

     o  Finally, send a SRV query for this SRV name to the discovered
        local authoritative servers, to complete the getservbyname() call.
        
	This call returns a structure that can be populated by response
	values, as follows:

        s_name    The name of the service, "_service" without the
                  preceding underscore.

        s_aliases The names returned in the SRV RRs in replies
                  to the query.

        s_port    The port number in the SRV RRs replies to the
                  query.  If these port numbers disagree - one
                  of the port numbers is chosen, and only those
                  names which correspond are returned.

        s_proto   The transport protocol from named by the
                  "_transport" label, without the preceding
                  underscore.


3.3  Using DISCOVER for Disconnected Names

   DISCOVER allows discovery of a host (for example, a printer offering
   LPD services) whose DNS server answers authoritatively for a domain
   name that hasn't been delegated to it, but is defined within some
   local scope.  Since DISCOVER is explicitly defined to discover
   undelegated zones for tightly-scoped queries, this behavior isn't a
   violation of DNS's coherency principles.   Note that a responder to
   DISCOVER might not be traditional DNS software, it could be
   special-purpose software.

   DISCOVER usage for disconnected networks with no authoritative
   servers can be achieved using the following conditions.

          o Hosts run a "stub server" that acts as though its FQDN
            were a zone name.

          o The computed SOA gives the host's FQDN as the MNAME, "." as
	    the ANAME, seconds-since-1Jan2000 as the SERIAL, and low
	    constants for EXPIRE and the other SOA timers.

          o  NS is used as the host's FQDN.

          o  The glue is computed as the host's link-local address, or
 	     hosts may run a  "DNS stub server" that acts as though its
	     FQDN were a zone name.
        
   The rules governing the behavior of this stub server are given 
   elsewhere [1] [2].

   Such stub servers should answer DISCOVER packets for its zone, and
   will be found by the iterative "discover closest enclosing authority
   server" by DISCOVER clients, in either the gethostbyname() or SRV
   cases described above.  Note that stub servers answer only with
   zone names which exactly match QNAME's, not with zone names which
   are owned by QNAME's.

4. IANA Considerations

   The IANA will need to assign a numeric value for the DISCOVER opcode.

5. Security Considerations

   No new security considerations are known to be introduced with a new
   DNS query operation.  However, using multicast for service discovery
   has the potential for denial of service from flooding attacks.  It
   may also be possible to enable deliberate misconfiguration of
   clients simply by running a malicious DNS server that falsely claims
   to be authoritative for delegations.  One possible way to mitigate
   this threat is to use credentials, such as CERT resource records
   within an RR set.  The TBDS project took this approach.  TBDS did
   not directly utilize DNSSEC and so possible interactions with
   DNSSEC aware/capable servers are unknown.

I still don't understand what the plan is.

There is a lot of Internet broadband content distribution going on =
today. I do not see where this proposal fits in.

Is this the choice of the right tool or 'have hammer, will use it' or =
'have always wanted this particular hammer and looking for excuse to get =
one' ?

I am really confused here.

First, I know that multicast has a base in the IETF. Is there at this =
point any real prospect of widespread use? Multicast violates the =
principle of keeping the core of the Internet as simple and unchanging =
as possible. Multicast is also the amplification mechanism to beat all =
amplification mechanisms.=20

A distributed caching model achieves the same effect with considerably =
less impact on the core Internet infrastructure. Instead of doing =
branching in the network core we do it at the next level up in the =
stack. This allows us to build in security in a coherent way. It also =
eliminate the probably bogus assumption that all participants are =
interacting synchronously. This is not the case in video-on-demand due =
to pause features.

What is it that is being proposed? Is it a feature that is to assist =
deployment of multicast or a feature that has some other advantage that =
happens to use multicast?
=20

I would like to see a concise statement of objectives and requirements =
that does not reference a previous post in the thread.

Multicast violates the principle of keeping the core of the Internet as simple and unchanging as possible. Multicast is also the amplification mechanism to beat all amplification mechanisms.

There is ongoing (okay, possibly petering out) discussion on the NANOG list at
the moment on this topic, related to "internet video" (the NANOG archives
are at http://www.merit.edu/mail.archives/nanog/ .  The threads are
"Network end users to pull down 2 gig" and
"Internet Video: The Next Wave of Massive Disruption to the US Peering Ecosystem".)

One of the points made early on by Sean Donelan is that there isn't a
bright line here where multicast is useful above and isn't useful below.
To quote one of his points:

Multicast doesn't have to be real-time. If you collect interested subscribers over a longer time period, e.g. scheduled downloads over the next hour, day, week, month, you can aggregate more multicast receivers through the same stream. TiVo collects its content using a broadcast schedule.

I believe you will find the rest of the thread gives an interesting set of perspectives
on how multicast fits in among other technologies; particularly, it gives you a
sense of how one operational community might use to smooth spikes in usage.

Instead of doing branching in the network core we do it at the next level up in the stack. This allows us to build in security in a coherent way. It also eliminate the probably bogus assumption that all participants are interacting synchronously. This is not the case in video-on-demand due to pause features.

"Content Distribution" in the form of Akamai and other such solutions
are GREAT for Big Companies(tm).

But Big Companies(tm) are not the only users of the Internet!


Multicast allows EVERY user of the Internet to very easily use a small
amount of bandwidth to send one single copy into the Internet and have
tens of thousands of other users enjoy it.

You could argue "just upload your video's up to youtube". Some users
don't want their works to be owned by third parties, some people want to
provide it in different formats. The Internet is about freedom, freedom
in what you do and how you do it. Having multicast available to end
users gives extra freedom to the users of the Internet.

Multicast will allow that for anything without having to play around in
the application stack and having to make application/protocol specific
caches for every sort of application. Of course we could just do
everything over HTTP, but hey where is the fun in that?


Also, what is the largest cost for ISP's anyway associated by those
traffic hogs like P2P? They are transmitting the same kind of data over
and over over their transit links.

Multicast would solve that as the data is only sent ones and fanned out
to the end users that want it. Read: your data goes over the transit
once, and only once: that actually saves money... and that is where one
of the catches lies, do transit providers want ISP's to save money!? :)

For warez-content distribution it seems that NNTP is nowadays the clear
winner anyway, with companies solely dedicated to providing access to
the TeraBytes of "NNTP Caches" that they have set up.


The big problem with multicast of course is the configuration of it and
the trust one has to have in its peers, as it can create a lot of havoc
when something goes bad, see for nice cruel bedtime horror stories the
various mbone,m6bone etc lists ;)


Greets,

Bill, this is emphatically not true for high speed wireless links, such
as the upcoming IEEE 802.11n standard.=20

In high speed wireless networks, the physical layer gets tuned between
sender and receiver, resulting in huge gains in transmission quality.
You can only apply a fraction of these tunings to multicast traffic.=20

There are also some nasty interactions between multicast and power
saving. To save power, the stations sleep most of the time, wake up
occasionally, and poll the server for any queued data. For multicast,
you have to either guarantee that all stations wake up at the same time,
which is hard, or accept to effectively replicate the multicast packet
for each station.

Transmission tuning and power saving are both very desirable. The
natural consequence is to try avoid multicast operation whenever
possible.

	re wireless... unless you have tightly coupled directional
	antennas, high speed wireless (one presumes that "high speed"
	in this context is the 802.11n draft standard) there is 
	a "footprint" of signal propogation that -any- receiver
	within that "footprint" may receive.

	for multicast, you can assume that all intended receivers are

	The first i agree with, the second depends on design goals.

It is merely that each station is required to wake up when
packets to the station are transmitted, regardless of whether
the packets are unicast, multicast or broadcast.

Thus, the amount of power consumption of a station increases
proportional to the number of multicast addresses the station
joins.

It's not a problem if the station is running streaming applications,
which, anyway, consume considerable amount of power.

However, frequently multicast RAs to all-nodes multicast address
are really annoying.

							Masataka Ohta

PS

A real difference between unicast and multicast/broadcast of CSMA/CA
wireless link such as 802.11 is that the latter can not be ACKed and
is unreliable.

Pars,

Various possible DNS designs are possible. However,
I want to go back to your suggestion that multicasting
will cause significant inefficiencies when running over
WiMax and 802.16.

It might, indeed -- Christian's note about the high
speed wireless designs was right on. But the question
is whether it will actually be the case for WiMax as
it is being defined and used. As you may know, there has
been active work in the 16ng working group during the
summer and autumn, and that has resulted in a
number of changes to the way that people originally
planned to run this. In particular, the WG has
considered issues relating to waking up dormant
hosts. My understanding is that their current
designs do NOT have that problem. For instance,
they plan to recommend a point to point like link
model where the host's ND or other link local
multicast traffic does not impact other hosts.
And there is a plan on employing RFC 4541 (MLD
snooping) where 802.16 is run as an Ethernet.
As a result, it seems fairly effective in ensuring
that multicast does not wake up unnecessary
neighbors. It does not solve all problems -- if
you were to run LLMNR over it you would still
be sending to every node, because only one
multicast address is used. But then again,
I'm not sure how big practical problem this
is. I hope the providers are not setting up
their 802.16 networks so that people can
find printer.local in the Tokyo subnet...

Anyway, if we think of the hash approach independently
of your 802.16 use case, I think there are still several
significant problems. As others have mentioned, you
still need something that allows ND to work, and it,
in turn is based on multicast at IP level. Perhaps
more fundamentally, I think a local unmanaged naming
system should be able to live with collisions. As your
scheme combines the name space to the IP space
this becomes very difficult. For starters, to allow
multiple similar names, you would have to disable
DAD and change ND, and I suspect it would not work
with current TCP and applications. Also, there
are operational issues such as inability to search
except for exact match.

Jari

	DISCOVER works with namespace collisions.
	fuzzy matching -after- the collision is detected
	requires more than just the FQDN and address.  When
	we did the original work on this (a decade ago) in 
	the TBDS project, we used a local crypto key as a third
	discriminator.  

	Neither DISCOVER or TBDS is v6-specific.

(excuse me cross posting - hopefully it's not so noisy)

Dear all,

On behalf of the program committee, I'd like to make an announcement
of a CFP for a forthcoming SIGCOMM workshop on IPv6.  Details are
available at http://www.sigcomm.org/sigcomm-conference-current/ipv6/
(major contents of the web page are also pasted below).  Although you
might think SIGCOMM is too "academic" for such practical forums as
IETF, we are actually seeking practical insights as well as
theoretical analyses in this workshop as described in the CFP.
So, please consider submitting a paper on your recent
research/engineering results related to IPv6.

Also, it would be very nice if you can distribute the CFP to whatever
venues that you think are suitable for this workshop.

Thanks,

					JINMEI, Tatuya
					Communication Platform Lab.
					Corporate R&D Center, Toshiba Corp.
					jinmei@isl.rdc.toshiba.co.jp

1. Motivation and rationale for the workshop

This one-day workshop aims to bring together researchers and
practitioners from academia and industry to engage in an in-depth
discussion on various research and deployment issues of IPv6 and their
impact on the future of the Internet. In recent years the global
deployment of IPv6 started taking off, especially in the Asian-Pacific area.
To date IPv6 development efforts have mainly focused on protocol
standardization, product development, and network operations, rather
than as a research target.
However, we believe that the accumulated experiences in these practices
now provide interesting research opportunities, not only for those who
have been involved in IPv6 development but also for the broader network
research community. We expect the workshop to open a dialog between
networking researchers and practitioners, and foster synergistic
activities thereafter.

2. Call for Paper (CFP)

ACM SIGCOMM IPv6 and the Future of the Internet (IPv6+) Workshop seeks
papers describing significant research contributions to the field of
IPv6 and their relevance on the future of the Internet. IPv6 was
primarily motivated by the address shortage problem of IPv4. It provides
a much larger address space than IPv4. However, the competing technology
Network Address Translation (NAT) has alleviated the address shortage
problem to some extent, and other problems, such as routing scalability,
management, mobility, and security, have become increasingly prominent.
At the mean time, the global deployment of IPv6 has gradually taken off.
Modern operating systems are shipped with both IPv4 and IPv6 stacks, and
IPv6-compatible backbones came into existence. As it is costly to
migrate from one network architecture to another one, can we take this
opportunity to address additional problems in the IPv4 Internet by
extending the IPv6 protocol suite? What new problems are/were
encountered in the process of deploying IPv6? And what lessons have we
learned?

We invite submissions that shed light on the above questions.
Submissions in both academic and operational flavors are welcome.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

    * Experiences and lessons learned from pilot deployments of IPv6
      networks and applications
    * Experimental and measurement results from operational IPv6 networks
    * Advantages and challenges the very large IPv6 address space bring
      to the Internet routing system
    * Scalable and robust solutions to multi-homing and traffic engineering
    * Host and Network Mobility
    * Multicast and Anycast protocols
    * Worms, DoS, and other security threats in IPv6 networks and
      possible enhancements to address these challenges.
    * IPv6's Applicability to sensor networks, low-power personal area
      networks, and other types of challenged networks
    * Impact on application development and deployment
    * A critical assessment of IPv6's viability as a global
      communication infrastructure for the future or of its fundamental
      limitations, if any.


3. Submission guideline

Great news. This means that ND and DAD will work
without waking up all dormant hosts. If I understand
correctly.

I'm not sure why LLMNR uses only one multicast address.
I see serious problems with that. A LLMNR query would
wake up every dormant host, in this case. Why this may
be a serious problem?

Firstly, the multicast name resolution idea that started
with ZEROCONF (if I'm correct), has the potential to find
many new and popular applications. This means that many
users may use it in the future, especially in wireless
broadband networks. However, this also means that it may
create a lot of multicast queries that wake up every host
and consume a lot of energy.

>From this point of view, I suspect that LLMNR's potentials
are underestimated by its own design.
(I mean: if a LLMNR query must be forwarded to every node)

Secondly, nothing prevents a user from trying different
names again and again. Each query would wake up many
dormant hosts. Can we call this a DoS attack? I'm not
even sure. He/she is doing that for fun perhaps. But the
consequences would be bad if a LLMNR query must be
forwarded to all (probably dormant) devices.

Pushing my own scheme is not my intent in this discussion.
(I wanted feedback, and I had a lot and I thank you all)
However, the good news that you have announced in your mail
are also good news for my proposal.

My proposal *needs* ND for address resolution, and DAD
for address (i.e. name) collision detection. If these protocols
will run without waking up every dormant host, then this is
also great for me.

I will think more about your other comments (I'm not
sure to understand). Thanks!

pars

ps: I'm not sure if folks realize the costs of waking up
every dormant host at the same time. It is not only an
energy consumption problem. It is also a signaling
problem. The most efficient dormant is achieved using a
mechanism called "paging". This is a generic protocol. To
wake up a dormant host, you have to search it in many cells.
This is for one host. You can probably imagine what would
happen if you try to page every dormant host.

There was actually a reasonably thorough discussion of this issue during
the design of LLMNR. You can find it in the list archive. At one time,
there was a design proposal to use multiple multicast groups. The
group-id would be derived from the queried name. The proposal was
eventually discarded.

Part of the reason was implementation complexity. A hash based solution
requires to write the name in canonical form before hashing. Canonical
functions are hard to get right, especially with international names,
and could cause significant interoperability issues.=20

Another reason was the general overhead of multiple multicast groups.
Many station interfaces can only handle a limited number of groups, and
fall back to promiscuous mode and software filtering after that number.
In switched environments, switches have to maintain routing state for
the multiple groups. The multiple groups may reduce the overhead of
individual queries, but there is a significant management overhead.

Given that, it was decided to just keep it simple, and use exactly one
group.

If you assume L4 ack and retransmission, you are right.

However, even at L4, unidirectional UDP unicast is just as reliable
as unidirectional UDP multicast.

At L2, Ethernet multicast is as reliable as Ethernet unicast and
802.11 unicast, because there are CD or ACK and retransmissions.

OTOH, 802.11 multicast with no CD, ACK nor retransmission is a
lot less reliable.

I was reminded that (this type of) conference information was
inappropriate for IETF lists according to the general rule described
in RFC3005.  Of course, I didn't intend to abuse the lists, but
clearly I should have checked the policy more carefully before posting
it.  I'd apologize if any of you felt uncomfortable about the
unsolicited message.  I won't (ab)use IETF lists about subsequent
information (if any) on this matter.

FWIW, I agree.  I've not assess whether each of the RFC2461(bis)
constants can be a source of an interoperability issue, but if it's
not, "MUST" or "MUST NOT" is clearly a wrong choice.

Although SHOULD (NOT) might help clarify the intent (and I don't
oppose to adding it in this case), I'm not sure if it has a real
effect; there's always a vendor that misunderstands or even ignores a
particular part of a specification even if it's specified as a MUST.
So we won't be able to eliminate such abnormal implementations by
giving a spec a SHOULD or MUST.  We may be able to convince such a
vendor of fixing their implementation with the specific keywords, but
I personally don't see significant difference for that purpose in this
case, with or without an RFC2119 keyword.

In any case, I have no strong opinion on whether to add an RFC2119
keyword to 2461bis (as long as it's not an unnecessary MUST).

I've never read RFC 3005, but my take is that in this specific
advertisement is very meaningful for both IPv6 and V6ops mailing lists,
so I wouldn't see where there would be a problem this time.

But on a general basis, I've seen too many postings which were really
not appropriate to be sent on to the mailing lists where there were
sent to. So, I guess it's a matter of self-restrain.

Thierry.

Err... I work for Motorola.  I have written some DHCPv6 software.  I
don't sell it.

Why do you need list of commercial DHCPv6 servers?  You're surely aware
DHCPv6 may come built-in other boxes that aren't necessarily named
'DHCPv6 servers' but DHCP is a feature in the feature list.

If you need to experiment, there is a bunch of DHCPv6 software widely
available in the open-source communities, check SourceForge, FreeBSD,
Dibbler, Debian, maybe ISC has something too.

Hi,

With reference to the following link:

Thanks.

What aspects of IPv6 do you want to simulate? The addressing used
in NS is usually kind-of abstracted, and so doesn't directly
correspond to IPv6 or IPv4. I'd also guess that you'd be more likely
to get an answer to a question like this on the ns-users mailing
list.

Guillaume,

First off, your question seems a bit ambiguous. Do you want to
transmit IPv6 packets over 802.20 networks ? If yes, it is not a big
issues. Rather, you should study on how to transmit IPv6 packets over
802.20 networks. IETF has many experiences regarding IPv6 over foo. If
you are awaring of any specific characteristics of 802.20 networks,
these should be analyzed first, then bring it to IETF. Example: 16ng
(IP over 802.16 networks). Also, choosing a specific solution among
FMIP, Momani, 802.21 depends on your purpose as well as application.
In short, IETF is ready for helping out with the working in every L2
technologies.

Hope this helps.

Daniel

Stupid question : What is an IPv6 packet ? If it was so "easy", I believe that 
we would already be in an IPv6 World ...

As IP ( v4 & v6 ) is already in the MAC/PHY layer, I don't see what we can 
analyse here ... It is not like 16ng ( below ) ...

You are digressing from the core. I didn't say any IPv6 world, but
just wanted to let you know IP over foo could be dealt with IETF as
well. IPv6 world, um... it does not belong to IETF.

Hello,

Somebodyu sent me this :
 
"I would allow all users to register in their own name (i.e.allowing multiple 
users to have the same user name), you can say I am an anti dot com guy, this 
way one can get rid of cyber squatters. Recently there was an article that 
mentions quote " Shanghainese frusted over name game" in which it states that 
there are over 3937 people named Chen Jie and 3751 people named Zhang Min and 
purely in terms of Surnames (last name) Zhang comes out first with almost 
90000 occurrences Unquote. Similarly practically every third person in Korea 
is a Kim and if I talk about Indians I bet you must have heard a at least one 
Patel not to mention John Smith in England or US. 
 
My work is more towards enabling one on one contact universally, which is 
presently not possible, as ICANN method does not allow it"

and

"Addressing and numbering problems is more than just hierarchical structure. 
 
I know one thing that both IPV4 and IPV6 have posed the address shortage 
problem and that too when the net user percentage is just between 10 to 20% 
of the world population, so it is best to have this approach as it has 
covered practically all possibilities. "
 
Any comments about it ?

I look forward to your answer,

Best Regards,

		Guillaume

Either contact dnsop, where it is probably not appropriate either or
better discuss it at any of the ICANN forums.

ipv6@ietf.org is not the place as that is about IPv6

"The IPv6 working group is responsible for the specification and
standardization of the Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6)."

See: https://www1.ietf.org/html.charters/ipv6-charter.html
for the charter.

This thus not include discussion about ICANN or naming.

Also note that the person you cc'd is banned from a large number of IETF
lists for a reason. Please uphold the decision of the IETF.

Greets,
 Jeroen

Hi all,
I have some questions about RFC4293: IP MIB:

1.Some table's row state min access is read only, ex: =
ipv6RouterAdvertRowStatus and ipAddressRowStatus.
But ip address table's ipAddressRowStatus max-access is read-create. It =
doesn't describe min-access in RFC 4293.
2. fe80::/10 is well-known prefix. How about fe80::/64? I am not sure =
it's ipAddressPrefixOrigin  should be well-know type or otherwise.
3.ipSystemStatsOutForwDatagrams
Description:
The number of datagrams for which this entity was not their final IP =
destination and for which it was successful in finding a path to their =
final destination.  In entities that do not act as IP routers, this =
counter will include only those datagrams that were Source-Routed via =
this entity, and the Source-Route processing was successful.
When tracking interface statistics, the counter of the outgoing =
interface is incremented for a "successfully  forwarded datagram".

ipSystemStatsInForwDatagrams
Description:
The number of input datagrams for which this entity was not their final =
IP destination and for which this entity
  attempted to find a route to forward them to that final destination.  =
In entities that do not act as IP routers,
  this counter will include only those datagrams that were Source-Routed =
via this entity, and the Source-Route
  processing was successful.
 =20
  When tracking interface statistics, the counter of the incoming =
interface is incremented for" each datagram".


What's the diferent between ipSystemStatsOutForwDatagrams and =
ipSystemStatsInForwDatagrams?
Originally, I thought ipSystemStatsOutForwDatagrams =3D =
ipSystemStatsInForwDatagrams + forward failed(ex no route).
Is that right?
In ipSystemStatsInForwDatagrams description, it described the packet =
Source-Route processing should be successful.
But the counter of the incoming interface is incremented for" each =
datagram" not successfully  forwarded datagram.

Thanks,
Regards,
sofina

Sorry, the first question is:
Some table's row state min access is read only, ex: =
ipv6RouterAdvertRowStatus and ipAddressRowStatus.
But ipNetToPhysicalTable's ipNetToPhysicalRowStatus max-access is =
read-create. It doesn't describe min-access in RFC 4293.

Dear AD, chairs, folks;

I would like to bring a new problem statement draft to your
attention (1 page). Until it appears in the I-D rep, please
find it here:

http://www.freewebs.com/pmutaf/draft-mutaf-piqproblem-00.txt

I believe that not having this application
would be very unfortunate. (I think this is an INT area topic.)
And currently available name resolution techniques do not
address this problem as they should.

Do you have any comments on this problem statement?

Thanks.
pars mutaf

ps: sorry I kept the IPv6 WG CCed, but it looked like a good
idea because I was forwarded to namedroppers by IPv6 folks.
I wanted to keep them informed.

Zhimin, this is a very well formulated question but not posted to the
right place.

I would post this first to the mailing list dedicated to the software
you're using dhcp-0.10.tgz. What is the name of this soft? Where did you
take it from (download, a colleague, part of linux distribution?). Or
write mail to software author and indicate it's spelled 'hardware' nor
'harware' - s/he'll be glad to correct.

Then I'd post to users@ipv6.org, then to KAME or USAGI distribution lists.

And only then I would post it _maybe_ to the DHC WG mailing list (but
not the IPv6 WG mailing list).

Finally, maybe you need to put the interface up before starting dhcp, or
make sure you're root, or maybe stop the ongoing ethereal, and make sure
client and server can ping6 each other, etc.
