The IAB is ready to ask the RFC-Editor to publish
Multilink Subnet Issues
<draft-iab-multilink-subnet-issues-03.txt>
as an Informational RFC. This document reviews the
exploration of subnets and multiple links as IPv4 was
standardized and deployed, which lead to the standardization
of single link subnets. Recent efforts have revisited
the notion of multi-link subnets, particularly for mobility
and IPv6. This document provides a background of issues with
multi-link subnets still pertinent for consideration today.
The IAB solicits comments by February 23, 2006. Please send
comments to the IAB (iab@iab.org), or to ietf@ietf.org.
The document can be found at
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-iab-multilink-subnet-issues-03.txt
From the Abstract:
There have been several proposals around the notion that a subnet
may span multiple links connected by routers. This memo documents
the issues and potential problems that have been raised with such an
approach.
Leslie Daigle,
For the IAB.
