While reviewing the applicability draft, I was reminded of this: > Stateful address auto-configuration using DHCP [RFC3315] is not > currently supported, because there is no defined mechanism to convey > the CGA Parameter Data Structure and other relevant information from > the DHCP server to the host. The definition of such mechanism seems > to be quite straightforward in the case of the HBA, since only the > CGA Parameter Data Structure needs to be delivered from the DHCP > server to the Shim6 host, and this data structure does not contain > any secret information. Isn't this "straightforward" extension to DHCPv6 a loose end that we should try to tie up before closing this WG? -- Regards Brian Carpenter
