Juli 2001 13:08 An: IETF-Announce: Cc: ipng(a)sunroof.eng.sun.com Betreff: I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-ipngwg-default-addr-select-05.txt A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the IPNG Working Group of the IETF. Title : Default Address Selection for IPv6 Author(s) : R. Draves Filename : draft-ietf-ipngwg-default-addr-select-05.txt Pages : 21 Date : 26-Jul-01 This document describes two algorithms, for source address selection and for destination address selection. The algorithms specify default behavior for all IPv6 implementations. They do not override choices made by applications or upper-layer protocols, nor do they preclude the development of more advanced mechanisms for address selection. The two algorithms share a common framework, including an optional mechanism for allowing administrators to provide policy that can override the default behavior. In dual stack implementations, the framework allows the destination address selection algorithm to consider both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses - depending on the available source addresses, the algorithm might prefer IPv6 addresses over IPv4 addresses, or vice-versa.

WG: Protocol Action: Transmission of IPv6 Packets over IEEE 1394 Networks to Proposed Standard
by Thomas Trede 01 Aug '01

01 Aug '01

FYI. Regards, Thomas Trede -----Ursprï¿½ngliche Nachricht----- Von: owner-ipng(a)sunroof.eng.sun.com [mailto:owner-ipng@sunroof.eng.sun.com]Im Auftrag von The IESG Gesendet: Mittwoch, 1. August 2001 01:50 An: IETF-Announce: Cc: RFC Editor; IANA; Internet Architecture Board; ipng(a)sunroof.eng.sun.com Betreff: Protocol Action: Transmission of IPv6 Packets over IEEE 1394 Networks to Proposed Standard The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft 'Transmission of IPv6 Packets over IEEE 1394 Networks' <draft-ietf-ipngwg-1394-02.txt> as a Proposed Standard. This document is the product of the IPNG Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Erik Nordmark and Thomas Narten. Technical Summary IEEE Std 1394-1995 is a standard for a High Performance Serial Bus. This document describes the frame format for transmission of IPv6 packets and the method of forming IPv6 link-local addresses and statelessly autoconfigured addresses on IEEE1394 networks. It also describes the content of the Source/Target Link-layer Address option used in Neighbor Discovery to perform address resolution when the messages are transmitted on an IEEE1394 network. Working Group Summary This document is based heavily on the IPv4 over 1394 specification [RFC 2734] and defers to that specification for the definition of some of its functions. During the Last Call, comments were made that there may be performance problems with the existing IPv4 over 1394 specification and that it may need to be reexamined. Consequently, requests to delay advancement of this document were made. However, at this time, it remains unclear whether and when the IPv4 over 1394 standard will be updated and to what extent such an update will obsolete the current design. Thus, the IESG has approved this document as a Proposed Standard. Like all Proposed Standards, it can be updated at anytime as needed. Protocol Quality This specification has been reviewed for the IESG by Thomas Narten. -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPng Working Group Mailing List IPng Home Page: http://playground.sun.com/ipng FTP archive: ftp://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng Direct all administrative requests to majordomo(a)sunroof.eng.sun.com --------------------------------------------------------------------

The goal of the meeting is to facilitate consensus on how IPv6 addresses are represented in DNS and related issues. This meeting requires extensive homework by participants and the chairs would like to request submission of documents for a reading list for this meeting. The output from the meeting will be draft consensus proposal. Here is non exclusive a list of relevant topics: 1 - Design tradeoffs in DNS and IPv6 (AAAA, A6, DNAME, bit string) - DNS operational considerations including DNSSEC costs in regard of address record format - DNS implementation complications due to address record format - IPv6 Remembering requirements and impact on address record format - Case for A6 - Case for AAAA - transition from ip6.int to ip6.arpa - transition from AAAA to A6 2 - tools/protocols/strategies to bridge IPv6 and IPv4 DNS resolution Anybody wishing to make a presentation should send a draft to the chairs of this meeting before July 26th 2001, 21:00 UTC (that is, 2pm PDT, 5pm EDT, 11pm MEST) - Randy Bush <randy(a)psg.com> - Alain Durand <alain.durand(a)sun.com> - Bob Fink <fink(a)es.net> - Olafur Gudmundsson <ogud(a)ogud.com> - Tony Hain <tony(a)tndh.net> Drafts not yet published by the ID editor are acceptable contributions (please include an URL). The chairs will review the list of submission, derived the actual agenda of the meeting from it and send all reading materials to the DNSext and NGtrans mailing list no later than July 27th, 21:00 UTC. The format of the meeting is going to be: - Short summary of the discussion points from the documents - Technical discussion on the relevance of the points - Technical discussion on the points from documents as measured by Rob Austein's document draft-ietf-dnsext-ipv6-dns-tradeoffs-00.txt - Brainstorming on the best way to go forward - Straw polls leading to consensus building on a plan of action - the chairs. -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPng Working Group Mailing List IPng Home Page: http://playground.sun.com/ipng FTP archive: ftp://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng Direct all administrative requests to majordomo(a)sunroof.eng.sun.com --------------------------------------------------------------------
