[v6ops] Interest in DHCPv6 Route/DefRouter/Src-basedRoute configuration to Client?

[Alexandru Petrescu <[e-mail]>]

Dear participants to V6OPS,

Is there an interest in DHCPv6 Route/DefRouter/Src-basedRoute
configuration to Client?

As one may remember, there was much discussion in several groups about
DHCPv6 delivering routing information to Clients: generic routes,
default routers' addresses and routes keyed by source address.

The MIF WG has produced a document
draft-ietf-mif-dhcpv6-route-option-05
but it is recently dropped from the MIF Charter to allow group to
re-focus on a MIF topic.

An individual proposal about DHCPv6 Default Routers List that I
co-author is in
draft-mouton-mif-dhcpv6-drlo-02.txt
which takes on an earlier  draft-droms-dhc-dhcpv6-default-router

In the DHCWG there was recently discussion about IEEE 802.11ai needing
to configure DefaultRouters by using link-layer messaging, or
alternatively DHCP.  With a purpose to realize fast configuration in
crowded hotspot areas for highly mobile STAs.

Also in DHCWG there was discussion about the src-based routes being
communicated to Client with DHCPv6.

Is there an interest in DHCPv6 Route/DefRouter/Src-basedRoute
configuration to Client?
