Hello Luigi;

Thanks for your comments - my responses are inline, below.

There is some text which is incorrect - on page 4:

   Furthermore, ILNP demands a change in the way local (e.g., within a
   LAN) communication is carried out, needing all of the devices to
   support ILNP.  This in turn may raise heavy deployability issues.

This is not true - "all devices" do *not* need to be updated, but only those end-systems that wish to use ILNPv6. Switches

Switches clearly do not need to be changed since they are L2.

Agreed.

However, the text clearly says "all of the devices", which is incorrect.


and routers

You need to implement the ILCC in your first hop router.

No, that is not required. I have a testbed at St Andrews and we run Linux routers that are not modified, and are not ILNP-aware. For example, please see the testbed experiment described in this paper:

  IP without IP addresses
  https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?doid=3012695.3012701

 Then you need new ICMP messages, and few other tricks here and there in existing stuff.

The new ICMP messages, e.g. Locator Updates for ILNPv6, RFC6743, are end-to-end - only the end hosts needs to be updated to generate these messages.

If any on-path routers wish to examine such messages, then yes, they would need to be updated, but that is not required for ILNPv6 to work.

Other solutions are more clear because introduce new entities and protocol, so either you have it or you don’t.

Yet, may be the last sentence can be soften deleting  “heavy”.

All new solutions will incur some sort of deployment overhead, so I am not sure why such a comment should apply specifically and only to ILNP.

For ILNP the basic deployment requires end-systems to be updated. Such updates would be deployed through over-the-air updates, as is common today with many operating systems. DNS entries for ILNP nodes would also be needed, and the new DNS RRs for ILNP (RFC6742) are supported commercially (e.g. by BIND, NSD, and KnotDNS, and possibly others).

For other solutions, other deployment issues exist, e.g. for ILA and LISP, new network entities/functions need to be deployed and managed for routing, and so, I guess, the existing network will need to be reconfigured to integrate the new functionality. I am guessing some operators may find that a "heavy" deployment burden, but it is best that those operators comment on whether or not they see that is a problem, as I have no experience with running large networks.

Ciao

do not need to be updated, as ILNPv6 is backwards compatible with IPv6. It is possible to run an ILNPv6 node in a LAN which also has non-ILNPv6 nodes.

Abstract:
   This document presents a gap and solution analysis for end-to-end
   privacy enabled mapping systems.  Each of the identifier locator
   separation system has its own approach to mapping identifiers to the
   locators.  We analyse all these approaches and identify the gaps in
   each of them and do a solution space analysis in an attempt to
   identify a mapping system that can be end to end privacy enabled.




Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission
until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org<http://tools.ietf.org/>.
