Abstract:
The length of IP prefixes is an information used by forwarding and
routing processes is policy-based. As such, no maximum length must
be assumed by design.
Discussions on the 64-bit boundary in IPv6 addressing revealed a need
for a clear recommendation on which bits must be used by forwarding
decision-making processes. This document sketches a recommendation
to be followed by forwarding and routing designs with regards to the
prefix length. The aim is to avoid hard-coded routing and forwarding
designs that exclude some IP prefix lengths.
