Mainly, we've had too many words in the > addressing architecture. I expect the next version to have fewer words > on this topic. The fix should be straightforward enough. For one thing, all of the arguments which depended on EUI-64 are deprecated. In RFC 4291, for instance, The text representation of IPv6 address prefixes is similar to the way IPv4 address prefixes are written in Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation [CIDR]. An IPv6 address prefix is represented by the notation: ipv6-address/prefix-length where ipv6-address is an IPv6 address in any of the notations listed in Section 2.2. prefix-length is a decimal value specifying how many of the leftmost contiguous bits of the address comprise the prefix. Nothing more is needed in this text, but if people insist, we might add, "prefix length may be any value, including values greater than or less than 64 bits." All Global Unicast addresses other than those that start with binary 000 have a 64-bit interface ID field (i.e., n + m = 64), formatted as described in Section 2.5.1. Global Unicast addresses that start with binary 000 have no such constraint on the size or structure of the interface ID field. This should be reworded to reflect reality. [NEW] Global Unicast addresses in the 2000::/3 space are currently constrained to 64-bit interface ID field (i.e., n + m = 64), formatted as described in Section 2.5.1. Other examples of global scope unicast 64-bit interface ID are SLAAC, ULA, ... This leaves the possibility of future changes even to this rule in 2000::/3. DHCPv6 and static configuration seem the logical ways of assigning arbitrary length prefixes. Bert
