Hi Michael Richardson,

Just ensure there is no misunderstanding here. IMO, the ACP is mostly software based. 
Of course, normally only new products can provide that feature.

Best regards

The Autonomic Control Plane is *not* IPv6. It just looks like IPv6.

It's a new fangled protocol that has nothing to do with any of the deployed production network.  As such, it is *ENTIRELY* greenfield.
It's all new code.   It likely doesn't even get forwarded using whatever
ASICs your hardware might have...

If someone wants to do this with something that looks like IPv4, that's fine, but I want nobody complaining if we specify a mechanism (such as ULAs or ND or SEND) that does never been defined in the thing that looks like IPv4.
