Hello Emmanuel, > Maybe it would be easier to focus on the counterpart instead, and > consider the question "what is the definition of a host?". It seems to > me that the devices we are aiming to configure are typically capable of > things that hosts can't do (including, for instance, forwarding traffic > on behalf of other devices, if necessary). I don't think so. If a device is a host and not a router, it shouldn't be forwarding packets. I'm sure that there are going to be non-routing hosts in wireless ad hoc networks. From previous design work, I know that it is absolutely straightforward to allow a host to request an address and get one (if available). You might check [from year 2001]: www.cs.ucsb.edu/~ebelding/txt/autoconf.txt We seemed to know more on average in 2001, than has been displayed here lately in the autoconf WG. A node does NOT have to forward packets to request an address! > "hosts are considered to be connected to a MANET only through > a router, and thus, the MANET can be considered as comprising of only > routers". Do you _really_ want to exclude hosts from your network? Where will the applications reside? Hmmm... a network without hosts... Seems like a niche market. But, ad hoc networks are still a niche market, so this would be a niche niche market. <hmmm, sounds like Monty Python's knights...> > This architectural consideration thus separated the issue of > "configuring routers" from the issue of "configuring hosts" in this > context, and the rough consensus was that we would first focus on > configuring routers. Which lead us to where we are now. When was this rough consensus? Do you mean in Maastricht? Or, before? If the latter, I surely missed it. Regards, Charlie P.
