2011-02 Removal of multihomed requirement for IPv6 PI
Dear Community, I can't wait for this change to happen. As I discussed at IPv6 Kongress in Frankfurt, Germany, there are more than a handful of people wanting that change. For example, I have an IPv4 PI network and adopted early to IPv6 using an IPv6 PA network. Never did, nor will I ever understand why multihoming is required for an IPv6 PI network but not for an IPv4 PI network. I support this draft and like to thank everyone who made it happen. This is an important step awaited by me and many others, even if the community decides not to do it. best regards, Dan Luedtke

Okay, that sounds like you have a real reason for the change, can you please explain why (other than end users think they want/need it) ?

Given the choice I would quite willingly write a proposal IPv4 PI requires multihoming but that would be a return to deckchair arranging... J -- James Blessing 07989 039 476
