/64 vs /127 for Point-to-Point links
by Ahmed Abu-Abed 10 Oct '11

10 Oct '11

For those contemplating the use of /127 on point-to-point links, Jeff Doyle has a good article arguing the benefits of using /64 subnets with solutions to perceived /64 shortcomings (ping-pong and neighbor cache depletion attacks). http://www.networkcomputing.com/ipv6-tech-center/231700160 Regards, -Ahmed

The DFZ and supernetting
by Jasper Jans 19 Sep '11

19 Sep '11

Hi, We have had a fair amount of discussions lately on and off this list about the explosion of routes in the DFZ as a result of people wanting PI space and the likes. Others are ofcourse if there is no NAT66 how do you handle multihoming of a small site - but that is besides the point here. I have been wondering - since BGP is all about reachability as a goal and not so much optimal routing/best path/etc. is the easy solution for growth in the DFZ not overly simple? The way I see it you will end up with three sets of routes that you will need to carry on your routers: 1) Own customer routes - these can be any prefix length between /48 and /64 2) Other LIRs aggregates in same RIR region - these are /32 and bigger 3) Supernets for other RIR regions - these are /12 or larger So it seems like the explosion of the DFZ can be managed by supernetting certain routes. Having come up with this idea my next was - ok what am I missing here since it seems a simple and easy fix that would work without breaking much if anything. Can anyone enlighten me why we should not want to head in this direction?

More on IPv6 RA-Guard evasion (IPv6 security)
by Fernando Gont 06 Sep '11

06 Sep '11

Folks, A few months ago I had published a couple of IETF Internet-Drafts to tackle the problem of RA-Guard evasion -- A summary of the problem and pointers to relevant materials is available at: http://blog.si6networks.com/2011/09/router-advertisement-guard-ra-guard.html The two I-Ds are: * http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-gont-v6ops-ra-guard-evasion-01.txt * http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-gont-6man-nd-extension-headers-01.txt The former one explains the different attack vectors, and proposes operational counter-measures. The latter proposes a longer-term solution. I'm planning to revise these two I-Ds soon, so any comments/feedback/discussion would be really welcome. P.S.: In case you haven't, you may want to join the IPv6 Hackers mailing-list: http://www.si6networks.com/community/mailing-lists.html Thanks!

dynamic or static IPv6 prefixes to residential customers
by JORDI PALET MARTINEZ 23 Aug '11

23 Aug '11

Hi all, I will like to know, from those deploying IPv6 services to residential customers, if you are planning to provide static or dynamic IPv6 prefixes. Just to be clear, I'm for static prefix delegation to residential customers, however I heard that some ISPs are doing dynamic delegations, the same way as is common today with IPv4. I don't thin it make sense, as the main reason for doing so in IPv4 was address exhaustion and legacy oversubscription models such as PPP/dial-up. Regards, Jordi PS: I've sent this question to NANOG, got very few answers, so trying here ... ********************************************** IPv4 is over Are you ready for the new Internet ? http://www.consulintel.es The IPv6 Company This electronic message contains information which may be privileged or confidential.
