Hi,
I could agree with the several comments received on
this direction, but talking as one the unmanaged design teams members, I
remember that we decided to include only a couple of examples in the slides,
instead of going to a complete slide with all the list of possible
candidates.
May be we can talk about more complete
descriptions when the next release of the document is edited.
Regards,
Jordi

Subject: ISATAP and proto-41 in unmanaged
networks?
Hi Fred,
>It just now occurs to me that
Christian's unmanaged networks presentiation during v6ops yesterday did not
mention ISATAP as one of >the automatic tunneling alternatives, and I
wonder why this is so.
I wonder as
well. Not only ISATAP but also proto-41 (that Jordi presented later on) were
not mentioned in the Christian's presentation. Keeping in mind that both
mechanisms (ISATAP for intra-site tunneling and proto-41 for inter-site
tunneling) are often used I asked myself why they were kept undercover
yesterday.
Probably some comments
form the designing team of unmanaged networks proposal?
>ISATAP requires an ISATAP router in a site to
advertise RA in apretty weird fashion, which is clearly a drawback.
Itojun, Teredo also requires quite an
infrastructure (Teredo servers, Teredo relays) to function properly. In
general this is valid remark for all transition mechanisms. However, it is not
a reason to ignore some of them and to push others.
Greetings,
Mariana
