Sometime ago we discussed the allocation of an IPv6 prefix
for the purposes of legacy applications using HIP (the
ORCHID proposal). The key question in that discussion was
whether a /8 allocation is justified for this type of an
experiment. Since then we've had some off-line discussions
with the folks who commented on this topic, to come up
with alternatives to solve this issue. The proposal that
seemed to be acceptable is to allocate a longer prefix
(e.g. /28) as an IETF experimental allocation through
IANA. The implication is that the public key hash would
be truncated to 100 bits, presumably still within
an acceptable range.

If you have an opinion about this matter, please send
mail either here or on the HIP list before June 9th
so that Julien can update his draft.

Thanks,

--Jari
