Many folks don't see a problem w/ putting /48 junk etc. in the routing tables, others do. This doc would/could then become a political battleground in the v6 operations community..


Why don't publish what is agreeable as a minimum and then revise it when more experience/more concensus/other tools/... is in.



You mean, after the routing table has already been irreversibly polluted with junk, come back and review our past recommendations?

- no. you are missing the point.

- currently no recommendation. so /128 can fly.
- what is the number then, if not /48? I'm fine with better than /48, but I thought that concensus will be difficult with a number less than /48.
- and if you read the text, /48 is the minimum.
- maybe you can provide some text?



Sorry, I don't see how that could fly. If we don't recommend (or at least describe the tradeoffs of) filtering at the allocation boundaries, we'd better not produce a document at all because the existance of such a document would be interpreted as the IETF's go- ahead for putting the junk in the routing tables.

so you are proposing /32? Can you provide text?



 - the uppercase keywords are inappropriate and should be removed


you meant because it is not a protocol?


Yes, and because this is not really an area where the IETF can make strict requirements like "must"..

will do.



 - the doc should probably make RFC2772 historic


I thought about that and I agree. I'm not sure when/how to put it. Include in the document I guess?



Yes, and if you're using XML2RFC, do something like:

<rfc ipr="full3978" category="info" docName="draft-blanchet-v6ops- routing-guidelines-01.txt" obsoletes="2772">

yeap, you guess it.

Marc.
