Joel Jaeggli has entered the following ballot position for draft-ietf-6man-ug-06: Discuss When responding, please keep the subject line intact and reply to all email addresses included in the To and CC lines. (Feel free to cut this introductory paragraph, however.) Please refer to http://www.ietf.org/iesg/statement/discuss-criteria.html for more information about IESG DISCUSS and COMMENT positions. The document, along with other ballot positions, can be found here: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6man-ug/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DISCUSS: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- So I'm 100% in favor of the goal if this draft however: Their aim is to reduce confusion while retaining the useful aspects of the "u" and "g" bits in IIDs. If they're now opaque then their useful attributes is that they are two bits. the only way to know with any degree of certainty if an ip address is derived from a mac address if if you have an L2 adjacency with the device or have insight into how it was provisioned. The text does not really mollify me with respect to retaining "useful" aspects of the u and g bits.
