Title : IPv6 Site Renumbering Author(s) : C. Huitema Filename : draft-huitema-ipv6-renumber-00.txt Pages : 7 Date : 13-Jul-01 There has been recently a lot of the discussion in the IPNG, NGTRANS and DNSEXT working group about the level at which IPv6 shall support renumbering. A specific question is whether we need special support in the DNS to enable renumbering, as specified in [RFC2874], or if the simpler mechanisms specified in [RFC1886] are sufficient. In order to organize the discussion, this memo presents a set of realistic renumbering scenarios, discusses the possible frequency at which such scenarios can be repeated, presents some tools that can be used to organize the renumbering, and summarizes the operational requirements that have to be met by any renumbering solution.

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-huitema-ipv6-renumber-00.txt". NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE" command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on how to manipulate these messages. Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the Internet-Draft.
