The IESG has received a request from the Home Networking WG (homenet) to consider the following document: - 'Distributed Prefix Assignment Algorithm' <draft-ietf-homenet-prefix-assignment-06.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2015-06-11. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document specifies a distributed algorithm for automatic prefix assignment. Given a set of delegated prefixes, it ensures that at most one prefix is assigned from each delegated prefix to each link. Nodes may assign available prefixes to the links they are directly connected to, or for other private purposes. The algorithm eventually converges and ensures that all assigned prefixes do not overlap. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-homenet-prefix-assignment/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-homenet-prefix-assignment/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
