Re: [5gangip] New Version Notification for draft-xyzy-atick-gaps-00.txt

[Tom Herbert <[e-mail]>]

Behcet,

The statement "For ILNP the basic deployment requires end-systems to
be updated." is unscoped. As written, this would imply that all hosts
on the Internet need to be updated to support ILNP. That is simply a
non-starter. If the idea is that ILNP can be deployed by networks then
hosts within that network can be updated. But, then the question
becomes how ILNP hosts are going to be able to talk non ILNP hosts
(say servers on the Internet). For that the an ILNP gateway or proxy
also must be deployed in the network.
