Re: [homenet] Please review the No IPv4 draft

[Alejandro Acosta <[e-mail]>]

Hi,
  Nice idea & draft.

  I like the idea of having the No-IPv4 option for DHCPv6. I don't like
the idea of having this option in a v4 world; mainly because in mix
networks where you might have some folks which only speak IPv4, imagine
a case where this option is sent by a DHCPv4 to a client who do not
understand v6. Of course, probably the client won't understand the
option and won't turn off IPv4. There is also the chance that this is a
modern OS but for some reason IPv6 was disable in the host, yes, it will
understand the option No-VP6 (sent by a dhcp4).
  Last but not least, following this thread some of you mentioned
filtering (RA, DHCP OFFER) in the switch can prevent some unwanted
situations.., there are also other networks that are switch-less.

Regards,

Alejandro Acosta,
