[sunset4] discussion on sunset4-noipv4 draft in other WGs

["George, Wes" <[e-mail]>]

Simon Perreault (and to some lesser extent,I ) has been involved in a fairly animated discussion across Homenet and V6Ops about draft-ietf-sunset4-noipv4 after requesting those WG’s feedback on the draft.
Here’s a quote from one of Ted Lemon’s posts that might help to summarize the discussion:
"We've gotten some good feedback that the document isn't clear enough, particularly with respect to how multiple interfaces are handled, and we've gotten some good feedback about how to handle validity of the assertion that IPv4 shouldn't be used, and about how to deal with various attacks that could be launched by shutting down IPv4.
...
there's also been a lot of discussion about whether to use DHCPv4 or IPv6 configuration protocols for signaling,"

Additionally there were questions about whether or not the scope should be limited to shutting down DHCPv4, or still include shutting IPv4 off altogether, and whether there should be guidance on things like lifetimes, back off behavior in clients, etc.

This link should pull up the relevant threads all in one place via the new mail archive search tool.
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/search/?qdr=a&start_date=&end_date=&email_list=v6ops%2Chomenet&q=text%3A%28%22the+no+ipv4+draft%22%29&as=1

I’d encourage folks to take a look and provide input on this list, so that the authors have good guidance from the WG on how this WG draft should evolve to address the feedback provided.

Thanks,

Wes
