[v6ops] management and ipv6

[Jari Arkko <[e-mail]>]

In the course of discussing draft-arkko-ipv6-transition-guidelines in 
the IESG, Dan and other IESG members brought up the need to talk about 
management in IPv6 networks. For instance, in IPv6-only networks all 
your management tools have to be capable of IPv6, both in dual stack and 
IPv6-only you want your data models to support IPv6, in dual stack you 
need to monitor reachability and errors not just in IPv4 but also in 
IPv6, and so on. They believe that there's quite a bit of work in this 
if you actually dig through all the details such as what MIB versions 
are required.

Draft-arkko will be moving forward as we close some other last issues, 
but would the V6OPS WG be willing to work on a separate document to talk 
about management of IPv6 networks? Or is there such a document already?
