I think this thread and all the other threads seem to point to the
fact that we have to start dicussing solutions instead of scenarios.
We know the scenario now - we may need tunneling. If we could now
wrap up ISATAP in that way that it fulfills the requiremets given by
the scenarios/analysis. Right?



We know that there is a scenario where tunneling is desirable in
certain cases, yes.  However, I'm not sure if we know the requirements
of the scenario, or the scenario itself, well enough yet (see the
points above why exactly configuring is bad, what exactly would need
to be configured, etc.).

Of course, talking about solutions might be OK as well, but only if one keeps the scenario in mind.

I don't know what you mean by the ISATAP reference. Clearly, we could
take it, and apply it in this specific scenario, and I think it would
work, at least to some definition of "work". That doesn't mean it's
the right thing to do, of course. Is it the *right* tool for the job? 


Perhaps what might help would be an applicability statement such as the one
I have just submitted to the I-D repository and have available for immediate
perusal at:

Abstract

   This document describes the operation of the NOID multihoming
   proposal on nodes with ISATAP interfaces. It uses the global DNS as
   an extension of the ISATAP Potential Router List (PRL) and ISATAP
   link-local addresses as next-hop addresses for IPv6 routes.
