Hi all,

I had the opportunity to see this proposal from the beginning, and to talk 
extensively about it with the authors.

The present draft does not fully cover some essential parts, like the 
robustness of the methodology in case of link failure, but I think that these 
can - and should - be the subject of an extra document.

I do agree with Pascal about the fact that this proposal is “below” the IP 
level, but I disagree on his conclusions. The proposal, in my opinion, has 
enough interactions with the IPv6 address operations (e.g., neighbour 
discovery, scope of addresses, etc.) to be worth to be discussed in this group.

Moreover, despite the quite specific applicability scenarios, the risk to not 
standardise it in the IETF scope is to have (yet another) proprietary standard 
that directly impacts the IP layer, leading to interoperability nightmares 
(read: total lack of interoperability between devices).

Hence, I’m favourable for a WG adoption.

Best regards,

Tommaso Pecorella
