(It would have been a very poor design option, right ? :-) ) When I say : "If some edge routers and ISP gateways supporting the address format would be deployed, they would provide powerful v6 capabilities to concerned customer sites, independently or in association with whatever transition tools other sites and ISPs may have deployed.", concerned customer sites are those where the edge routers has been upgraded to support the new format, and/or those that have acquired the right to use some gateways where the new format is supported. Their additional connectivities may be incoming as well as outgoing, so that they benefit also to some correspondents of concerned hosts. The evaluation of the scenarios where this is or isn't supported (and the mix of these) might call for a bit of description.Yes, certainely. This is part of the next step. In the mean time you could have a look at the attached slides. They were prepared for a verbal presentation. Although they are not self explanatory, Slides 11 to 16 could provide an insight into the kind of E2E paths that become possible. Thanks for your question and comment. Please don't hesitate to ask for more clarifications. I am aware they are needed, and it helps making progress. Rémi Després |
