Folks,

The following is a reworking of the addressing requirement.

                                       Ron

Short Name: Addressing

Description: The compression mechanism MUST support any addressing plan and it MUST NOT require the excessive address space consumption.

Rationale: Network operators require addressing plan flexibility. They may be forced to adopt an addressing plan by corporate organization, mergers or government mandates.

Metric: The compression mechanism MUST work and provide adequate compression in any of the following addressing plans:

  *   All locators are drawn from a single GUA /48
  *   All locators are drawn from a single ULA /48
  *   All locators except for the last is drawn from a single GUA or ULA /48. The final locator is drawn from a multicast prefix
  *   Each locator is drawn from a different GUA /32
  *   Each locator is drawn from a different GUA /16
  *   Each locator is drawn from a different GUA /8

In all case, each node MUST allocate no more that a /60 to its locators.
