what IANA needs is an RFC where the IETF says something like: "this given prefix (eg IPv6 addresses beginning with bits 001) are to be used for unicast IPv6." How the LIRs get to tell IANA and the RIRs should partition the given space for real world deployment should be subject to architectural constraints and ISP business operations. It is not an IETF role. Joao On 21 Jun, 2004, at 10:01, Kurt Erik Lindqvist wrote:

I guess if the RFC is there is because IANA requires it, so moving this to historic will not work, instead updating it will do.
Help me out here. Why would IANA require it? I don't remember there being an RFC telling IANA how to allocate other resources? What's so special about IPv6 addresses?
