Dear all;

We seeing a number of situation (e.g., draft-collink-v6ops-ent64pd and 
draft-ietf-snac-simple) where there's a need for a node to advertise that it 
owns a prefix to neighbor routers, and that packets sourced at (in case of 
multihoming) or destinated to (in case of a stub) that prefix should be passed 
to this node.

At the moment there is magic (read proprietary code) that ties, say, the DHCP 
server that delegates a prefix and the routers that install a route for the 
delegated prefix via the delegated node. With this draft, the delegated node 
can advertise the prefix to the routers in a standard/interoperable fashion.

Bottom line is that it is getting more urgent to complete the work and I intend 
to ask for adoption at IETF 117. 

To progress on this, reviews would be much appreciated between now and the next 
IETF.

Many thanks in advance 😊

Pascal
