  1. IPng Addressing Document Status Thomas Narten narten@raleigh.ibm.com March, 2001

  2. Addressing Architecture • Currently under IESG discussion • Make clear that implementations must treat all "non-special" addresses as global unicast • Downplay reference to RFC2374 (Unicast Aggregatable) • Other editorial edits (no impact on implementations) • -04 ID addresses some issues, another rev needed • Approval as Draft Expected

  3. RFC2374: "Global Unicast Aggregatable Addresses" • IESG unwilling to advance in current from • Not really appropriate for Standards Track • Topic of document has few implications for implementations • Size of TLAs, NLAs, etc. may change in future • Address assignment policy is the domain of RIRs • IPv6 architecture defines /64 boundary • /48 boundary not required by architecture, though good technical arguments for having it • Other boundaries in routing part managed by RIRs

  4. RFC 2374 (cont.) • Recommendation: • Engage the RIRs on topics covered in 2374 • Cooperative effort: • IETF provides input on technical issues • RIRs develop and adopt allocation policies • Separate documents (with different focus) may result • No change to existing allocations expected • No change in policy without extensive public review (both in IETF & RIRs) • May result in evolution of future policy

  5. Met With RIRs • IPng Chairs and ADs met with RIRs this week • Initial discussion positive
