Re: [v6ops] Focused discussion: draft-ietf-v6ops-unique-ipv6-prefix-per-host

Hi Mark,

I am in the process of working in some text on multicast/MLD and will submit an
update later today.

Thanks - Fred

I agree with points others have made.

The title sounds like a BCP title, however the content reads like a recipe/howto for a specific deployment scenario.

I think there are general and non-Wifi specific parts that should be separated. Reflecting on the number and content of recent discussions around hosts using DHCPv6-PD, I think there needs to be an ID on that topic. Fred's draft seems to be mostly there, although multicast/MLD needs to be covered.

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-templin-v6ops-pdhost/

Finally, although it in some ways is out of scope, I'd never want to see a BCP of any kind proposing that all of Wifi's security mechanisms are turned off, because WiFi traffic is so easy to packet capture everything when security is switched off.

Regards,
Mark.
