Thanks for all your replies. Indeed, what Wes and I did in our IETF IPv6 CPE Rtr doc is to try and write one common document that works for cable, DSL, and even 3GPP legacy wireless data networks (3GPP was low-hanging fruit for our document because with a few minor additions we could satisfy their demands).
I'd just want to clarify that my intent in my opinions regarding this draft was to make it work in ETTH deployments as well. I hope this was just an omission in listing technologies and not a statement from the authors regarding the intents of the document to exclude ETTH?
I don't know the extent of L2 switches used in delivering ETTH across the world, but I'd guess it's in the millions of subscribers getting their Internet access this way.
