Hi, I had a look at <draft-zhang-v6ops-ipv6oa-iwf-00.txt> and I am not sure what exactly this I-D proposes. Apparently, I am not clear what the "Interworking Function" discussed in the document boils down to. - If it is simply an IPv6 router, than I believe there is no problem with connecting an ATM network to an Ethernet network. - If the "Interworking Function" is not an IP layer function, then (a) where is it defined how such an "Interworking Function" works and (b) why should the working group focusing primarily on IPv6 operational and deployment issues worry about this? There might be simple answers to these question, I just did not find them easily in the document. /js -- Juergen Schoenwaelder Jacobs University Bremen gGmbH Phone: +49 421 200 3587 Campus Ring 1, 28759 Bremen, Germany Fax: +49 421 200 3103 <http://www.jacobs-university.de/>
