A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : SLAP quadrant selection options for DHCPv6 Authors : Carlos J. Bernardos Alain Mourad Filename : draft-bernardos-dhc-slap-quadrant-00.txt Pages : 14 Date : 2019-01-28 Abstract: The IEEE originally structured the 48-bit MAC address space in such a way that half of it was reserved for local use. Recently, the IEEE has been working on a new specification (IEEE 802c) which defines a new "optional Structured Local Address Plan" (SLAP) that specifies different assignment approaches in four specified regions of the local MAC address space. The IEEE is working on mechanisms to allocate addresses in the one of these quadrants (IEEE 802.1CQ). There is work also in the IETF working on specifying new mechanism that extends DHCPv6 operation to handle the local MAC address assignments. In this document, we complement this IETF work by defining a mechanism to allow choosing the SLAP quadrant to use in the allocation of the MAC address to the requesting terminal/client. This document proposes extensions to DHCPv6 protocols to enable a DHCPv6 client or a DHCPv6 relay to indicate a preferred SLAP quadrant to the server, so that the server allocates correspondingly the MAC address to the given client or relay. The IETF datatracker status page for this draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-bernardos-dhc-slap-quadrant/ There are also htmlized versions available at: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bernardos-dhc-slap-quadrant-00 https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-bernardos-dhc-slap-quadrant-00 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.
