Hi John, One comment w.r.t. one of the points you make below...

I would say that 3484 is the default mechanism for REAP, but > surely nodes can have an optimized algorithm? > I agree with respect to this point. probably when selecting the locators pairs to be explored, we need to: - consider the issues included in RFC3484 but probably with a different priority - consider other information, like reachability, preferenes and so on, available from the shim6 protocol I have wrote a mechanism for locator pair selection that takes into account this additional issues. I haven't submitted it yet, but you can find it in: http://www.it.uc3m.es/marcelo/draft-bagnulo-shim6-locator-pair- selection-00.txt perhaps this could be a useful tool... regards, marcelo
