A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IPv6 Operations Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: IPv6 Unicast Address Assignment Considerations
	Author(s)	: G. Van de Velde, et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-v6ops-addcon-00.txt
	Pages		: 20
	Date		: 2006-6-2
	
One fundamental aspect of any IP communications infrastructure is its
addressing plan.  With its new address architecture and allocation
policies, the introduction of IPv6 into a network means that network
designers and operators need to reconsider their existing approaches
to network addressing.  Lack of guideliness on handling this aspect
of network design could slow down the integration of IPv6.  This
draft aims to provide the information and recommendations relevant to
planning the addressing aspects of IPv6 deployments.  The draft also
provides IPv6 addressing case studies for both an enterprise and an
ISP network.  In this first version of the draft we aim to provoke
discussion on this important topic; more detailed case study texts
will follow.

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.
