No problem.

First, it is not RFC2460 but RFC2373.

When I proposed to modify IPv6 addressing architecuture from 10+6
(with 48 bit MAC) to 8+8 (with 64 bit MAC, the current one in
RFC2373), I have been carefully watching that universal/local and
individual/group bits are not overridden.

Thus, it is OK to give special meaning on local group MAC addresses.

When both source and destinaiton addresses looks like local group
MAC address, IP, TCP and other stacks should behave diffferently
from leagacy ones.

People who still need local addresses should be careful not to make
it a group address, which is a trivial local administration issue.

62 bits are enough for globally unique reverse lookup.

That's all.

A simple end to end solution is to send multiple copies of a data to
multiple pathes. Mission critical application over SONET is already
doing so and it is said that, even if a path fails, not even a single
bit is lost.

As for IP multihoming, it is already implemented with a VoIP protocol
and is working fine. Senders send multiple copies of a RTP data. At
the receivers, RTP takes care of duplicate packet deletion. Having a
few voice streams is not a problem at all, of course.

Hi,

What is required to break the impasse of no progress within the IETF on
multi6?

There are some good ideas in the "rebel" ipv6mh group (e.g. Christian's
ideas for incremental solutions using existing tools).  Even the multi6
chairs were seen in ipv6mh meetings :)

We really don't want to be appraoching IETF#57 with this bizarre situation
continuing, or do we? 

Tim

I am interested in completing a solution which I sketched out a couple of
months back, but my schedule is rather full so it won't be ready for the coming
IETF meeting, but I had planned on something by the next meeting.

I'm not *recommending* this, but any action/inaction on the part of the 
IESG,
including the ADs for this WG, is appealable provided that one follows
the formal appeals process.

Frankly, I think the ADs and WG Chairs for multi6 are well across the 
line,
outside the boundaries of civilised behaviour to not even permit an 
active WG
with active on-charter list discussions to meet to discuss items listed 
in an
IESG-approved WG charter.  This is particularly true since it is not a 
one-time
occurrance, but a repeated behaviour on their part.

Yours,

ipv6mh does meet in SFO on Sunday March 16 and probably some ad-hoc
meetings during the week as well such as the one Jordi called in
Atlanta. Details on the meeting location will be posted on the ipv6mh
mailing list. Non-members are welcomed too.

Kindly check in the mirror.  It is the IESG members who have turned the 
IETF
into a world where "process and politics" matter.  And one of the chairs
of this WG is in fact an active IESG member, in addition to being 
co-chair,
though he is not the AD for this area.

> to be blunt, where's the protein?

There is a requirements I-D.  Several folks here would like to discuss
that I-D in-person in order to try to work through the details needed
to advance that to RFC.  Said activity is listed in the WG Charter that
was approved by the IESG.

I'm not aware of anyone doing any collaborative work on 8+8 outside of 
this
list.  And I haven't been aware of any such work since the IRTF NSRG 
disbanded.
Maybe I'm missing some other data ?  Or were you suggesting that 
discussing topics
that are in-charter for an IRTF RG  inside that IRTF RG is "a 
middle-school
clique approach" ?

Oh, I forgot, the IESG gets spun up about the IRTF because the IESG 
don't
control the IRTF.  My mistake.  My apologies for forgetting that being 
on
the IESG is all about top-down control these days.

If the AD or the WG Co-Chairs want to provide guidance, that would be 
really
helpful.  Blocking WG meetings to discuss topics clearly in-charter 
without
providing such guidance (what is happening in this WG) is not terribly 
helpful,
IMHO.

Would you rather take pot shots or provide some help to the WG ?
If the former, it would be more intellectually honest to just shutdown
the WG than to play the political game of blocking in-person meetings.

Is it just me or did we have a discussion or two about protocols? (Not
sure what "product" in this context would be.)

I clearly remember asking the chairs to schedule a meeting for Atlanta.

There are plenty of proposals and some drafts. Their good- and
derivativeness would be good subjects for discussion, I think. Also,
AFAIK everyone who attended found the unofficial meetings in Atlanta
useful.

Can we meet at:

	Transitions Planning BOF (6bonebof)

	Tuesday, March 18 at 1700-1800

and state an opinion that 6bone address management responsibilities
should be transferred to RIRs only after multihoming issues are solved?

It seems to be that it is a (perhaps the only) rough consensus of multi6.

Or, does so many of us think v6 addresses may be widely assigned
without multihoming issues solved?

Let me offer an opinion on how we can move forward.

As I see it, there are basically four classess of IPv6 multihoming
solutions that have any promise:

1. "No changes" routing-based approaches, ranging from simple (ignore
   the scalability problem for now) to complex (geo aggregation).

2. Weak identifier/locator separation: the identifier is an address
   usable for routing that is replaced/hidden in transit in some way,
   typically by a router or middlebox (MHAP, but also
   tunneling/redirection mechanisms)

3. Strong identifier/locator separation: the identifer isn't an address
   usable for routing, so the end host must implement the solution
   (basic multiaddressing as we know it today, SCTP, HIP)

4. Mobility-based approaches (although this could be classified under 2.)

If we can make an upgrade path from type 1 solutions to type 2
solutions and from type 2 solutions to type 3 solutions, this will
greatly enhance the prospects of each. Also, it should be much, much
easier to draw up good requirements for each type of solution rather
than the generic "we want it all but it can't cost anything" type of
requirements we have now.

With those requirements in hand we can apply the "people who say
something can't be done shouldn't get in the way of the people doing it"
rule.

They are already being assigned and used folks.  Now not just by Asia
and European ISPs, but U.S. ISPs and IXs too.  It has begun!!  Within
private enterprise preparation and IT test beds are running and learning
to cope with the new route-exchange TLA rules.  Appears RFC 3178 will be
used to develop SLAs as temporary fix till this work is done here or
outside of the IETF.  Taking what IPv6 is today and working it is the
only course I think for time-to-market of this spec in or out of the
IETF. 

I also believe Ran has asked some very valid questions that should be
answered.

I think this is a very good approach and also what I tried to start 
doing with the road-map, except that I tried to group all solutions, 
and only noted the need to create a path forward. Do you think it would 
be useful to extend this document with this (or create a new one?). I 
don't mind changing the classes if we can consensus on a common 
grouping of approaches?

Absolutely.  Hence the question as to why the brainstorming can't be
taken officially on board.   I find it both baffling and frustrating that
we've gone two meetings without a multi6 session for what some people
argue is "the last missing piece of the IPv6 jigsaw".

Could we at least not get a BoF session scheduled, at least something on
the official agenda, maybe nearer the end so ipv6mh input from their
meetings can be tabled.

I am not following your reasoning. I don't see why we should not move 
address management to where it belongs, and what that have to do with 
the multi6 issue?

I think this way of classifying solutions can be very useful when trying
to come up with requirements or creating desing teams. However, in a
document that introduces someone to the subject this grouping may seem
arbitrary.

I'm afraid you have been saying "It has begu!!" for these eight
years that we should assume that it won't begin for next eight
years.

The proble is that there is no such solutions.

If you disagree, feel free to use type 1 and 2 solutions with IPv4.

Here is the point where the merit of having longer address could be
deployed.

A point of multi6 is that we can do it from the beginning.

You are getting in the way of the people doing type 2 and 3 insisting
that there should be upgrade path from type 1 and 2.

If we want to do something with PI in type 1, that's going to be hard
because it doesn't scale well enough in the long run. If we want to do 2
at all there's the problem that everyone has to implement it before it
works. However, if we first do 1 and then 2 people who want 2 will use 1
as long as 2 isn't available yet (so more use for 1) and people don't
have to be afraid 1 will blow up in their faces because they're
migrating to 2 later. So both are more viable.

There are drafts. Don't know if they solve anything...

But the point is that we work on it. It seems likely that any existing
draft or proposal can be improved upon if we work together. You wouldn't
know it, but there are actually some very smart people in multi6.  :-)

> If you disagree, feel free to use type 1 and 2 solutions with IPv4.

GFN isn't going to work to any usable degree with IPv4 because there
simply aren't enough bits. There are many other type 1-like solutions in
actual use in v4, though. Type 2 could work well if you don't mind
burning two or three times as many addresses.

Actually this type of solution doesn't really need the bigger addresses.
I would even like to have type 3 run over both v4 and v6.

Since anything that can be done in a middlebox can also be done in a
host, the upgrade path from 2 to 3 shouldn't limit 2 too much.
Essentially, 2 is a subset of 3. As for 1 to 2: I think the burden
should be mostly on 1 there. More concrete: I want to use PI addresses
in a type 1 solution that become the identifiers in a type 2 solution. A
type 2 solution could also use PA addresses but that would be stupid as
PI is much better for the user and there aren't many down sides to using
PI in type 2. There are in type 1 so we should see if we can afford it
there.

Huh?

Are you saying it already belongs to where it belongs that there
should be no BoF?

You are saying your classification is meaningless.

We can move forward a little if you admit that, by definition,
weak separation is not a subset of strong separation.

The hard part, then, is to define what are "weak" and "strong".

> If we want to do 2
> at all there's the problem that everyone has to implement it before it

Remember that my 8+8 with doubtlessly-strong separation is
interoperating with leagacy IPv6 stack that it can be deployed
gradually. That is, we can move forward without wasting time
to define what is "weak".

The problem of deploying type 1 is that it will bloat global routing
table unnecessarily, which can not be restored later.

Note that, in an RIR, some says routing table must grow unmanageably
large.

We should "move forward", not "work on moving backward".

In which area? Did you find an AD to go for a BOF that would obviously
conflict with multi6? Having a meeting for the purpose of having a
meeting does not do any good to anybody.

Little reminder for those that were not present: The last multi6 meeting
happened in Salt Lake in 2001, at my request. After 15 or 20 minutes out
of the 1-hour window the meeting was over and nothing was done, which
has not changed since. I do not see the point of having another SLC-like
meeting, flat out a waste of time.

You can forget about a BoF IMO.  If multi6 is not good, it could be 
disbanded and new one created, or..

.. we could, for example:

 - change the management [ie. chair(s)], or
 - change the w.g. members [ie. mostly ignore input from some members], or
 - settle the worst past grievances and grow up

In my agenda, 20 minutes out of an IETF meeting is probably not waste of 
time, no matter how I look at it.  Of course, if one only is interested in 
multi6, that may be a problem, but then again I'd be questioning the 
participation in the IETF anyway.

This is ignoring the short-term solutions with multiple addresses.

I'm not sure what you refer to with mobility based approaches.  It seems
to me that such do not exist (which would help with multihoming, that is).

I'll be probably submitting a draft on my "big picture" in April or so.  

At the moment it looks like we don't have all that much work to do in the
short term..

Given the 6+ hours of ipv6mh sessions in Atlanta, I see no problem filling
a 1 hour (or more) slot with multi6 discussion.   There have been at least
1,000 posts to ipv6mh (and multi6) since Atlanta.   So I would not be worried
at all about running out of steam inside an hour :)

Of course a productive meeting is another matter.  That means we have to
approve or ditch the requirements draft, approve a new charter, and get real
progress moving...

No, I'm pretty much sure you're saying this. But then I firmly believe
that everything is meaningless except for the meaning we choose to
bestow upon any particular thing. If you find my my classification
meaningless that's ok, I'll use it as long as it suits my needs.

My point is that this isn't necessarily the case: if we start giving out
PI space that is simply allowed in the global routing table, we have
bloat. But if at some point a type 2 solution becomes available, we can
simply start moving in the middleboxes and after a suitable transition
period the PI /48s can be removed from the global routing table because
the middleboxes translate all the traffic. It should be possible to do
this in a way that is transparent to end hosts.

No, these are type 3. Note that they fail to meet some basic multihoming
requirements, though, so they shouldn't be considered viable solutions
as-is, except for some specific application types such as the DNS.

Agree. The overlap with mobility has been observed many times, but
little progress so far in this area.

Obviously writing drafts hasn't helped to move things forward so far. So
I want to build some proof of concept stuff. That's plenty of short term
work.  :-)

Well, not by the classification: there is no strong identifier/locator
separation in e.g. host-centric multihoming approach.

Which realistic solutions _do_ meet those requirements?

Right..

Mobility could be useful, IMO, if and only if you could secure a construct
like Binding Update with like, IPsec.  And this is a non-starter at the
moment.

Well, let's not start a flame war over this. If we're going to have a
few more classes then it would make sense to make this a separate class.

But my reasoning is that those solutions really use an implicit
locator/identifier separation: an email domain has several MXes. The
email domain is the identifier, the MX addresses are the locators. SCTP
doesn't even seem to use an identifier at all, so I guess the socket or
control block is the identifier there. It's certainly not any of the
individual addresses. And this must be done on the host so it's the
"strong" variety.

IPsec isn't as evil as people think it is. I got it to work in a few
hours. As long as we can have the IPsec just between the mobile host and
the home agent this shouldn't really be a show stopper.

Some folks might not agree on its reality.

Besides, how can you manage e.g. inbound loadbalancing/traffic engineering
with that?  I think that was one of those "we want everything"
requirements.

No, this is not enough.  Such a model just shifts the problem around so 
that we'd require "truly multihomed" home agents.  IMO, that's not a 
solution.

On the other hand, if global PKI existed and was usable, one could perform
"homeless mobility".  Node X with addresses X_1 and X_2 (from different
ISP's) could just signal to the other endpoint that the sessions should
continue using the other address.  But this authentication is not possible
today.  In fact, if you take a few more steps in this direction, you'll
stumble upon HIP.

We have tried to evaluate a concrete proposal for multi-homing using 
MIPv6 tools. The result can be found:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bagnulo-multi6-mnm-00.txt

We would really appreciate your comments,

For a classification suits some need, classes of the classification,
by definition, MUST be mutually disjoint.

That is, your need is nonsense even in an abstract sense.

I suggested not to have the classes, which actually are not classes
at all.

As I wrote to Brian, reserve some bit(s) to designate address
families and use legacy upper layers unless both source and
destination addresses are of the new ones.

It is implemented and is interoperating with the legacy stack.

That is enough to argue against 6bonebof.

If ever the type 1 is deployed to some extent, people using it won't
accept any proposal which require them additionally purchase the
middleboxes.

Wheter it is transparent to end hosts or not is irrelevant.

Proposals requiring middleboxes at some transition stage is
definitely not deployable.

There is no approaches based on MIPv6.

Mobile protocol with a single home agent (or something like that)
is unreliable and useless.

That is, to make multihoming useful, it should be without any single
point of failure and have multiple home agents.

Then, such mobile protocols solve most, or all, of the problems of
multihoming.

However, the classification for type 4 is not productive, as all the
useful solutions are, in a sense, mobility based.

These "mobile protocols" you refer to are locator/identifier separation
variants, like HIP or LIN6, I assume.

I agree with them as long term approaches, but I'm not sure about the
classification of all the useful solutions under "mobility".  Mobility is
too vague a word for that.

Eftersom jag ännu inte tackat ja kan ni väl hålla detta för er själva...

Är det dumt att acceptera detta? Notera att minst halva multi6-wg 
antagligen anser att Randy och nuvarande chairs är ett större problem 
än multihoming....
Den andra halvan anser att problemet är den första halvan och att om de 
inte funnits hade vi redan haft en lösning (baserad på 8+8). Randys 
inlägg i debatten om vilka personer som är orsaken gör knappast saken 
bättre.

Jag lutar dock åt att tacka ja...

Ok, screwed up. this was not ment to go to the multi6 list. it was ment 
to go to some friends asking for advice on if they though I should 
accept or not.

I owe a lot of people many excuses for this, Thomas, Randy and Bert are 
first of the list.

My deepest and sincerest apologies for this.  Please disregard this.

Best regards,

Agreed. But if you are referring to the road-map document, that was not 
meant to be an introduction to the subject.

No. All.

I can't see any reason to have short and long term approaches.

All we need is a solution and a solution-specific transition strategy.

Some solution may require two steps of transition. But, such a
solution is poor with complex and painful transition and should
be avoided.

> Mobility is too vague a word for that.

That is a problem of the original classification attempt.

How, do you think, it should be managed?

"just like IPv4" is not an answer.

Of course.

It is impossible for RIRs to define an assignment policy unless
they recognize how multihomed sites should be treated.

I think the answer is that the RIRs can do allocations based on the 
technical requirements given to them by the IETF.

Hmm. This depends on what you mean. Policy is today decided by the 
membership of the RIRs. I think that RIRs should do allocations 
according to the policy set by the RIRs members. The IETF should set 
technical standards for the protocols using those addresses or making 
up those addresses. If those protocols require limitations in policy, 
that should be declared in the protocol specification. I think you will 
find it hard to get the RIR membership to agree on having policy set 
outside the RIR membership.

If you want to influence the allocation policy, go the RIRs meetings.

The policy has to be consistent with the technical constraints.  The IETF 
needs to define what the technical requirements (i.e., what works, waht 
doesn't work, what the limitations are, scaling properties, etc.) in order 
for the RIR to create the policy that is practical.

>If you want to influence the allocation policy, go the RIRs meetings.

Agreed.  But the policy needs to consistent with the technical 
requirements.  For example there are technical limitations of routing 
protocols that relate to the number of routes and interconnections between 
ISPs.  If the RIRs were to adopt a policy that did not take these technical 
requirements it would result in an Internet that didn't work.

As IPv6 build IIDs out of MAC addresses, should the IETF make rules on 
how MAC addresses are assigned? From what I remember there is an 
agreement between the RIRs and the IETF on who does what, right? Making 
the claim above implies changing a lot more than IETF specs.

I agree with you that it is up to the IETF to set the technical 
specifications, but to say that the IETF decides "in order for the RIRs 
to create the policy that is practical" is dangerous.

You can do this in multiple ways. You could (playing the devils 
advocate) argue that the IETF should create technical specifications 
that can handle the policy of the RIRs. After all, to a large extent 
the RIR membership is most likely a better representation of 
"end-users" (for some definition of users) than the IETF is. A better 
way to move forward is most likely to have the IETF _cooperate_ with 
the RIRs on a working policy.

I still to some extend fail to see the underlaying problem though.

I don't agree. Even if ISPs (overwhelming majority of RIR membership)
represent end-users better than vendors (majority of IETF membership)
there is only one RIR policy and users don't get to choose, while there
are usually many ways to implement some functionality that are endorsed
by the IETF and not being endorsed by the IETF doesn't mean it can't be
implemented or used. Having a choice is always the better option.

I think you need to go and check the RIR policies. They are not the 
same. They are similar, but not the same.

Besides that, the RIRs have a similar policy in order not create

Addresses are hard to get and I need to pay. Those are the parts that
bother me. The rest, I don't care much about...  :-)

Ok, I'll hold you to that when we've solved the multihoming problem.
(Address space isn't scarce anymore with v6 of course.)

Not at all. What I'm saying is that if we have a choice whether the IETF
or the RIRs can make a certain policy, this is a no-brainer: the IETF.
Only when the scarcity issues come into play you need the RIRs. That's
what they're good at, lets not distract them with anything else.

But this is all moot most of the time, as the RIRs do existing stuff
while the IETF tries to build new stuff. So the overlap isn't that big.

problem is that the rirs, aside from missing protocol folk, are
also missing router/backbone ops folk.  so they get a very narrow
view.

Are you saying "Board of Trustees", "ARIN Advisory Council" and

just randomly without having knowledge on technical requirements?

IPv6 addresses will be easy to get and you need not to pay much.

However, TLAs will be harder to get and you need to pay a lot more.

They don't have to be similar but they have to be consistent.

Wrong. If the resource is not limited and routing table growth is
not an issue, don't let each RIR set their own policy. Just assign
as much resource as demanded.

However, routing table is a limited resource and routing table size
is an issue.

I agree.  It's not clear to me that either the IETF or the RIRs represent 
the "end-users".  The RIRs are focused on their members who are mostly ISPs 
and the IETF is populated by people from vendors, standards professionals, 
some ISPs, and researchers.  IMHO neither groups primary focus is the 
"end-users".  I would think that the ISOC could possibly fill this role.

Silly rhetorical question.

As the URL documents, RIR policies are established via public policy 
meetings in which interested parties, including those affected by the 
policies, can provide input.  Technical implications of policies are 
part of the input.  Have you ever been to a RIR public policy meeting?

Gentlefolk,

I think we're missing the big picture here.  Handing out addresses
before you understand how addresses will be used is not a good idea.
We did this in IPv4 and it resulted in the swamp.  

To not make this mistake again, we need to have a firm routing
architecture for v6 in hand that includes support for multi-homing
as a first level, non-scalability-impacting element.

We are not there yet.

Tony

This is not particularly related to multi6.

Perhaps, say, Thomas Narten, Takeshi Arano, or David Kessens could work 
with ARIN and the other RIRs to come up with IPv6 policies?  Or maybe 
folks from IPng like Bob Hinden could run drafts of proposals for 
addressing architectures by the RIRs for input?

Oh.  Wait.

There is mini ARIN work shop April 6th and that week in Memphis.  A few
End users I know will be there and downstream providers that are using
the address space and going to request more.  ARIN listens to all input.

None of them is IETF.

IPng WG has no idea on addressing architecture for multihoming.

IPng WG has no idea on how global routing table size should
be managed.

I don't agree.  Not because I don't believe multi6 issues should not be
done. But, because RIRs are dealing with free enterprise.  The market
will adjust but should not wait for a process that cannot deliver.  And
they won't. Does this effort want to fix the multihome problem or the
routing architecture to be something other than what we have?  Two
different goals. But, whatever is done will now have to be done while
IPv6 is in process in the market. I would suggest solving the multihome
problem is a good focus first, using IPv6 as defined.

Masataka,

Exactly.  Free Enterprise means no Free stuff including the Internet.

RIRs will just give out addresses that is all.  THe market will deliver
a routing architecture via new industry consortia or we will figure it
out here.

Might be good to define routing architecture? If we begin by reducing
traffic that causes problems for routing at the ISP in the end systems I
believe that is a start.  If new routing architecture means change to
IPv6 then I say engineers go in a room and make work what you have.
Extensions to IPv6 are acceptable I think.

>Well, that's kinda hard, because IPv6 as defined simply 
>ingrains the problem.

That's where we  will never agree and I don't use the word never to
often.  One possible solution to this statemate is for someone to define
what exactly routing architecture would look like as a model.  Then if
we all agreed on that model each could apply that model to their
favorite solution.  I for one would look at extensions to IPv6 that are
quite possible and there are many places to define extensions (e.g. DST
Options, Hop-by-Hop, Next Headers new formats).

...for IPv4. For IPv6 this is true for a reason. The very reason that 
it's being argued that the IETF should 'help' the RIRs.

If you actually go and look at the policy you will find that IP 
addresses are allocated/assigned with various ease by various RIRs.

You will find that _a lot_ of people disagrees with you. They will say 
it's a no-brainer to have the RIRs set the policy. The IETF is not 
about policy.

> Only when the scarcity issues come into play you need the RIRs. That's

No. The RIRs do much more than that. They provided a number of services 
around a policy. Registration is one of them. Do you really expect the 
IETF to set the policy, have the RIRs register this and ask people to 
pay for this without having a thing to say? I think you need to go to 
some more RIR meetings.

..which is why I fail to see what this discussion is about. The RIRs do 
registry and address policy. The IETF do architecture, protocols and 
some technology. There are well established rules to handle the overlap.

Fist I think we need a 'somewhat' wider consensus on how do deal with 
multihomed sites, before the IETF starts giving directions to the 
RIRs...

I guess this to some extend varies a bit between the RIRs, but in 
general I agree. Still, it's a better representation than vendors 
voting on the policy...

True, however at least two of the three are quite active in IPv6 
related issues within the IETF and I think it safe to assume technical 
concerns from the IETF (and elsewhere) were taken into account during 
the development of the current v6 policies.

Yes.  However, the RIRs have come under significant criticism in the 
past for being perceived as road blocks to IPv6 allocations and have, 
in fact, reduced the requirements for v6 space.  Even in this list, 
they are criticized for making obtaining address space 'hard'.

Seems they are damned if they do and damned if they don't.

10 years and we still don't understand the problem that we're trying
to solve?  Sigh.  

Routing is the other half of ROAD.  The part that we didn't ever
finish.

Ok, just for posterity: routing architecture tells you how
packets get from point A to point B in the network.  It includes
the semantics of the address, the routing protocols, and the forwarding
paradigm.


|    If we begin 
|    by reducing
|    traffic that causes problems for routing at the ISP in the 
|    end systems I
|    believe that is a start.


Ok, let's turn off v6.  Solved.


|    If new routing architecture 
|    means change to
|    IPv6 then I say engineers go in a room and make work what you have.
|    Extensions to IPv6 are acceptable I think.


Extensions imply that the architecture could not support that case
properly
as a first class citizen and that you're crocking and kludging to make
it work.  Seems like a pretty poor basis for a "new" protocol when
you're
trying to get it deployed and you admit up front that it doesn't cut it.

    
|    >Well, that's kinda hard, because IPv6 as defined simply 
|    >ingrains the problem.
|    
|    That's where we  will never agree and I don't use the word never to
|    often.  One possible solution to this statemate is for 
|    someone to define
|    what exactly routing architecture would look like as a 
|    model.  Then if
|    we all agreed on that model each could apply that model to their
|    favorite solution.  I for one would look at extensions to 
|    IPv6 that are
|    quite possible and there are many places to define 
|    extensions (e.g. DST
|    Options, Hop-by-Hop, Next Headers new formats).


Jim, if you're going to be so closed minded as to say that we will never
agree, then I don't see how you can reasonably expect anyone to change
the architecture.  Multihoming can never be a first class citizen in
the architecture if you do not divorce the 'locator' from the
'identifier'.
And that's what IPv6 insists on today.  If we continue down that path,
then the only alternatives are:

1) Forbid multihoming.  Not gonna happen.

2) All multihomed sites get global addresses and the routing subsystem
implodes.  This is the only way to get a single 'identifier' and then
use it for 'location' across all of my exit paths.  I must advertise
the route throughout the topology.

Which of these do you choose?  My vote:

3) Change the semantics of a v6 address.

Tony

Significant criticism by who?

The primary obstacles for IPv6 deployment have been:

	0) Supession, not reduction, of IPv4 address consumption.

	1) Complexity of protocol such as ND, IPsec and routing header
	useful for no meaningful purposes.

	2) People insisting on keeping complex useless features and not
	introducing necessary features.

They are never damned. There are other people to be damned.

Ok, some comments:

- It looks like you want to authenticate the secondary address
  beforehand when there is still return routability. But can you then
  simply keep the secndary address in some kind of "hot standby" state
  untill it is time to start using it and then use it for some
  considerable amount of time without re-authentication? Does this work
  and is it secure? Oh wait: "This is a major limitation for this
  application, since the binding can not be refreshed until the original
  route is restored and outages can last longer than 420 seconds."

- ICMP echo for keepalive wouldn't work. Not so much because of all the
  broken firewalls that block them, but because the only thing an echo
  reply tells you is that there is _someone_ present at the address, it
  doesn't tell you who it is. (Ie dial user may have logged out and
  another logged in and gotten the same address.)

- Why don't you look at the return traffic to see if the path is still
  viable? If you keep (re)sending data but there is no reply from the
  other side, something must be broken. This probably needs per-session
  state, though.

- "If a failure   has occurred along the path, the attempt to initiate
  the communication will fail and the CN will try again with another
  address. Eventually, a packet from CN will reach MHH." As this is
  application-dependent you can't count on this. Worse: the all-time
  most popular networked application typically chokes if the first address
  tried doesn't work.

- Having to interact every 70 seconds may break sessions that would
  otherwise remain intact. For instance, I often put my laptop to sleep
  in the middle of a session to conserve the battery. When it wakes up,
  my session is still ok because there was no communication during the
  nap so the fact that my laptop was effecitvely disconnected didn't
  matter. So lack of a HoT my not be an outage but simply saving
  energy...

This is excellent work. It shows multihoming in IPv6 is just around the
corner, and not impossible as some people seem to believe.

However, I do see a problem: as this solution isn't well suited to
medium-sized and larger sites, and provides no compatibility with other
solutions that do cater to larger sites, implementing this as-is may not
bring as much benefit as we hope. After all, the majority of all
communication is with at least one non-small site. And I don't think
Google or some other huge site really wants to start doing MIP as a
mattoer of course on all those 200 msec TCP sessions just because the
other side is multihomed.

So what I'd like to see is compatibility with one or more solutions that
are more suited for larger sites. But I guess the first thing we need
for that is one or more solutions that are ore suited for larger sites.  :-)

Reasonable complaint. :-)

So, let's admit freedom of those who insist on leagacy v6 to
use it forever and interoperate with the rest of the v6 world
but without the benefit of multihoming.

Production level v6 address assignment can begin as soon as
we agree on a multihomed solution.

Is it OK, Jim?

I don't get the discussion either.  The IETF will never control what the
RIRs do and lots of people would scream with far more influence than the
IETF if this even was suggested.  Also the IETF is a standards body.
The IETF can suggest the architecture through the standards.  No one
builds networks based on the IETF opinion or whatever.  IETF is a just a
standards body and no more.

Unlike the IETF RIRs do have to respond to market pressure.  RIRs do
take into consideration the IETF standards.  But not as gospel.

Some jetlagged comments.

substantial:

==> The problem is that this mechanism only "works" (for some definition of
works) for sessions that are broken over 140 seconds (ie. connection is not
aborted before that), with the upper bound of 420 seconds.  On top of that,
quite a bit of signalling is performed just in case that a link might go
down.

Needless to say, this doesn't seem to be all that useful, the tradeoffs
would seem to be quite overwhelming: especially the 140 seconds; I'd say
the outage of 10-20 seconds is the most that's acceptable for most
connections to stay properly alive.

it is, the doc is quite heavy to read as it's full of gritty details

If this and many other specs do not begin to produce solutions in a
timely manner then I predict there will be a deployment body for IPv6 to
go work on those specs and send them to the IETF but not with the
intention of waiting for 4 years for them to complete but implement and
work the IETF at same time.  So my statement was the result of an "if".

I think we do.  I think we just do not agree on some very basic ways to
solve the problem.  One will win and one will loose.  The loser will
predict horrible fates from the others choice.  I find asking the most
basic obvious questions before that result is the case, might be
prudent.  Because I think this is all going to stop soon and some
solutiion will just happen.  For me no solution to change the IPv6
address or the IPv6 architecture is acceptable.  Period.  I do not
believe that is required.  More below.

Ahaha.  I do not agree that includes the semantics of the address. But
the use of the semantics of the address.  So I am glad I asked this
obvious question.

But you and I will never agree on some basics that appear to be deep
rooted.  Like fixed vs variable addresses for the IP header.

Go back and read the SCTP suggestions as one initial solution to this
problem.

If the end system is smart enough to failover interfaces to different
ISPs, because it is aware of its multi-home nature it will help reduce
the need for ISPs to share aggregate routes.  The end system will not
need them to do that for most cases.  I realize this is not a total
solution.  Nor do I believe there is one total solution.  But multiple
solutions at different points in the network.

This is the negative view yes, but there is the positive view.
First I am not clear that the extensions are needed I suggested them to
you if you believe IPv6 needs **new** features, there is way to add
them. The positive view is that IPv6 is a base architecture that can be
extended far better than IPv4.

As a note the only complaint I have heard from entities really deploying
IPv6 routing with their ISP to an enterprise is they would like to see
more sub-routes for the /48s permitted.  The ISPs are sticking to the
rules and saying NO.  The ISPs are also handling the mutlihome routes
through peerings currently.

Not being closed minded.  But taking a stand. IPv6 exists it is being
deployed and cannot be changed in 2460, 2461, 2462, and others.
Applications are being ported.  The point is the product has been
shipped work with the product.  If you can't then by all means compete
against it.  The locator and identifier has been discussed many times it
has not born fruit and it is not going to happen with a change to 2460.
I personally don't buy the entire notion.  That's just my view and I am
free to have it and state it and your free to state yours.  That's a
good thing.

I vote for #2 above but I do not believe the routing subsystem will
implode, it will just require faster/better routers, and peerings.

But we should look at the problem further to see if it can be optimized
with a change to the semantics of the v6 address.

>3) Change the semantics of a v6 address.

So you are not suggesting a syntax change only semantics to the 128bits?
But I don't believe location and identification should be different. The
address should be overloaded to support both context.I believe that is
possible.  The address is both a location and an identifier. The IPv6
address supports location top down from the left most bits for routing.
So I believe what you ask exists now.

Do you agree with the way we have stated the multi6 problem?

Production addresses are now being handed out now to ISPs and ISPs to
end users.  None of us here and can stop that it is not our decision.
I won't go into the reasons why it is happening but it is and far more
than most would imagine.  But, no one is putting IPv6 in production mode
at this point.  The reason is that more testing is required and more
applications to be ported.  That is what is happening now from places I
know in Asia, U.S. and Europe.  The first production use of IPv6 will be
3GPP IM subsystem and I believe by this time next year it will exists.
But we have thought that before so we will see.

>Is it OK, Jim?

Multihoming is clearly documented to be a problem area.  Any user I know
is aware of the problem.  But it is perceived to be an ISP problem
mostly.  I think it is more than an ISP problem but a routing
architecture problem (on that Tony and I do agree).  Even large user
sites will have multihome issues before packets even enter the public
Internet.

For those facing this now with some test bed deployment where their
organizations are multihomed and those tests involve multiple ISPs and
remote geography, the only solution is peering and they will use the
essence of 3178 till there is a mutli-home solution.

IPv6 deployment will not wait for multi-homing to be solved.  But, Ipv6
deployment is not today far enough a long that a quick and expedient
solution would be possible at the intersection from test bed deployment
to wide production deployment.  More importantly what I believe will
bust open is home use with IPv6.  If multi6 can deliver a multi-home set
of answers in stages with step 1, step 2, step 3, do not break IPv6
applications in process, and do not break the IPv6 address it will
integrate well into the current deployment.

But for anyone to believe we have time to completely revamp IPv6 or the
market will buy into it, I think is wishful thinking not grounded in
reality.

4 years?

8 years have already wasted because some people has been believing
leagacy IPv6 were deployable.

How can you be sure they are consistent? Note that they may not

Then, we need some policy to deny some assignment based on the
technical reasoning on why, how and how seriously the resource
is limited.

3GPP has nothing to do with the Internet.

The world largest deployment of mobile-capable IPv6 Internet is our
LIN6-based project in Kyoto with hundreds of wireless base stations
(but, with little users, because the base stations are, of course,
IPv4 capable).

Some may use IPv6 at research labo. Very few at home.

The RIRs had a period of a complete open policy that I think lasted for 
two years. 200 applied. I wouldn't blame the RIRs.

Jim,

|    
|    So you are not suggesting a syntax change only semantics 
|    to the 128bits?


Correct.  If it matters, yes, I don't believe that the current
IPv6 approach is the ultimately correct way of approaching things,
but I'm not trying to cause a revolution here.  Just prevent v6
from being a total waste of time.  We can work with the 128 bits
for now.


|    But I don't believe location and identification should be

|    believe that is
|    possible.  The address is both a location and an 
|    identifier. The IPv6
|    address supports location top down from the left most bits 
|    for routing.
|    So I believe what you ask exists now.


I'm asking that we separate the identifier and the location.  Can't
do that if they're one and the same.  I agree that the current
semantics are one and the same today.  This is exactly what makes
multihoming hard.  
    

|    Do you agree with the way we have stated the multi6 problem? 


Not particularly.  But I can state it very succinctly: a host 
needs one identifier and multiple locators.

You don't get it.  Your own country has IPv6 deployed as I depicted in
your native backbone.  You never will get it I fear.  Hope I can talk to
you face to face a the IETF to see if we can resolve.  I have a kanto
sword given to me my martial arts master should I bring it :--)

Tony,

Could you write up your technical idea without a lot of man hours to
describe and why it solves the multihome problem.  I would listen for
one.  But I am suspect of the entire notion of the separation, which
just being technically accute having heard many solutions to this over
the years.  This could not be agreed on regardless of IPv6 all the way
back to NIMROD, which had nothing to do with IPv6.

Yes it does.  It is doing it in baby steps with IM system.

Yes.  But that will change.  I believe this will overrule 3GPP too.

I don't think multi-homing will wait for multi-homing to be solved, either. 
I'm sure there are many sites out there, not "knowing" there are problems 
with MH, that will blindly multi-home using PA addresses.  And I bet many 
of them will be quite happy.  What we need are reports of operational 
experience with PA MH.

I'm not Tony, but:

Traditional multihoming as is done in IPv4 will not scale.

An alternative is to give each host in a multihomed site an address for
each ISP the site is connected to. When (the link to) one ISP fails, the
communciation is diverted over the other ISP. However, current transport
protocols are unable to jump to new addresses in mid-session. Solution:
separate the identifier and locator functions of the IP address.
Transport protocols then use the identifier, which doesn't change during
the lifetime of the session, while IP uses the locator, which may be
changed at any time in order to route around broken parts of the
network.

A few things that need to be addressed to make this happen:

- Locators must always be present in each packet. But what about the
  identifiers? Do we include them in each packet (= tunneling) or are
  they implied?

- How do we discover identifiers and/or locators?

- How to we authenticate the relationship between locators and
  identifiers?

There is also the question of what makes good identifiers. HIP uses the
fingerprint of a cryptographic key. MHAP uses provider-independent IPv6
addresses that aren't visible in the global routing table. I myself have
suggested to use FQDNs as the first choice.

Note that there seems consensus here that we shouldn't try to revive GSE
or 8+8: some kind of "16+16" would be much easier to deploy.

It is not clear to me that this group has consensus on anything
other than:

I know the three policies fairly well. They are not similar but they 
are fairly consistent. They are at least not diverse enough to create 
competition among the RIRs (which is what started this part of the 
thread).

The resource is limited as there is a fixed number of addresses. The 
RIRs was created to handled and manage policy for a limited resource. 
Let's use them for that. The IETF was created to develop standards let 
them handle that.

I fail to see what problem you are trying to point out here.

Hi Pekka,

Thank for your comments, they are very welcomed.

Initial comment: the idea of the draft is to assess if MIPv6 can be used
unmodified to support multi-homing. A possible conclusion of this
analysis could be that it is not possible, but i am not sure that this
is clear yet.

> ==> The problem is that this mechanism only "works" (for some definition of

Preserves established sessions perhaps?

>  for sessions that are broken over 140 seconds

This is an upper bound. I mean it can be reduced but it can not be
increased. In order to reduce it all that it is needed is to increase
the frequency of HoTI CoTI message exchange. This would indeed increase
the overhead, and cost benefit analysis should be performed in order to
obtain an optimal choice. What it can not be done is to have a longer
detection period. But if i understand correctly you do not have a
problem with this.

Mechanism that provide a faster response to failures have to be included
once that other problems have been solved (like the next one)

>  (ie. connection is not

This is the real problem IMO.The alternative address can only be used 
for a limited period (420 secs). Then you have to
perform the RR procedure again to obtain new valid authorization data
that is to be used for extending the lifetime of the new address. THis
is a major problem since you can not perform the RR procedure because
the HoA is no longer available. The solution for this would be to extend
the lifetime of the binding but this may have security implications. you
have previously worked in MIPv6 security, right? could you comment about
the security concerns of extending this timer?

e2e failure detection implies traffic exchange. It is important to
discuss whether this overhead is acceptable or not. However this is not
strictly related with the usage of MIP but with host based solutions
IMO. I have studied an alternative for this in
http://www.it.uc3m.es/marcelo/mhExtHdr.txt
But it did present some other issues though...

Great. THis part can be solved, i think. Higher frequency would provide
this with an acceptable cost, i think. Specially when piggybacking is
included in MIPv6. As i said earlier, if this is deemed acceptable, the
message exchange for failure detection needs to be  reasonably tuned.
Moreover, probably adaptive mechanisms are needed to provide a
reasonably good performance. But i think this can be done (once that
other issues are solved, specially the 420 secs timer)

Good point!!!
An option is to consider that it is always a /48, but i don't thik this
is a good approach.
Another possibility is to assign the site exit routers anycast address
of every subnet to the corresponding exit router and propagate it within
the site as a host route. So hosts will address packets to its own
subnet exit site router anycast address, which will be routed to the
correspondent exit router.
Since the explanation is not so clear i will put an example



                +----+                  +----+ 
                |R1  |                  |R2  |
                |P1::|                  |P2::|
                +----+                  +----+ 
P1:Subnet1:Router1 |    P2:Subnet2:Router2 |
            -------------------------------------
            P1:Subnet1:Router3 |
            P2:Subnet2:Router3 |            
                            +----+                   
                            |R3  |                  
                            +----+                  
            P1:Subnet3:Router3 |
            P2:Subnet4:Router3 |
           -----------------------------------            
            P1:Subnet3:Host  |
            P2:Subnet4:Host  |            
                          +----+                   
                          |Host|                  
                          +----+                  
 So Addresses P1:Subnet1:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF and
P1:Subnet3:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF are assigned to R1.
P1:Subnet3:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF is announced within the site as a host
route to R1
Addresses P2:Subnet2:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF and
P2:Subnet4:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF are assigned to R2.
P2:Subnet4:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF is announced within the site as a host
route to R2
So when Host sends a packet whose source address contains the prefix P1,
it includes a routing header with P1:Subnet3:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF which
is deduced from its own prefix.

Not very nice, but i guess this would work, don't you?

Hi Iljitsch,

Thanks you very much for your feedback. Comments below...

Right. That is what MIPv6 does and the idea is to try to use without
modifications (if possible)

There are two issues here that need to be differentiated:
- First the Return Routability procedure provides BU authorization data
that has a limited lifetime, so it is not permitted by the spec that you
have an alternative address in "standby" as you reasonably suggest.
MIPv6 spec demands the HoTI CoTI exchange to be performed periodically.
This is cumbersome, but i think it can be used as a failure detection
mechanism, which would provide an added value to the RR procedure in its
application to multi-homing.
- The second and really major problem is that you can only use the
alternative address for a limited period (420 secs). Then you have to
perform the RR procedure again to obtain new valid authorization data
that is to be used for extending the lifetime of the new address. THis
is a major problem since you can not perform the RR procedure because
the HoA is no longer available. The solution for this would be to extend
the lifetime of the binding but this may have security implications that
have to be studied

Agree. I guess that the HoTI CoTI exchange is better suited for this
application then.

A proposed extension for MIPv6 is the piggybacking of mobility messages
in regular traffic. In this case you would use return traffic to
transport signaling data. This kind of optimizations can be done.
However this mechanism allows the it is used also in unidirectional
traffic, which i guess is a good feature

Good point. I do not have much data about how applications normally
behave in this case. But if this is the case, this is an issue. However,
AFAIK this is probably the case for IPv4 where interfaces usually have
only one address configured. However in IPv6, considering "Default
Address Selection mechanism" i was hoping that application used the list
of addresses generated by the mechanism and try to use them to
communicate

Good point again. Perhaps additional intelligence could be included in
the mechanism to cope with this, i will think it over.

I am not certain about this. We could study compatibility between
solutions and see what happens. I guess that there is no compatibility
problems between this solution and the classical IPv4 solution... :-)
Really, This is very relevant point to consider seriously and i 'll try
to study it. What solutions do you think i should consider?

Not so sure about that. I mean, Google only has to do the CN RO support,
which will be probably included in most stacks (besides, probably Google
will want to be accessed by mobile hosts) So, it will really won't be
able to tell the difference whether this is a multi-homed host or a
mobile host.

Again i think this a very valid point and i will try to study
compatibility with some of the solutions that we have

Iljitsch,

You did a fine impersonation.  

At this point, I'm quite happy not to sweat the 8+8/GSE/16+16
distinction.  If we can get to consensus that we need separation
of locators and identifiers, then we will have made good progress.
Let's agree on the macro before we work out the micro.

Tony

|    I'm not Tony, but:

|    Traditional multihoming as is done in IPv4 will not scale.
|    
|    An alternative is to give each host in a multihomed site 
|    an address for
|    each ISP the site is connected to. When (the link to) one 
|    ISP fails, the
|    communciation is diverted over the other ISP. However, 
|    current transport
|    protocols are unable to jump to new addresses in 
|    mid-session. Solution:
|    separate the identifier and locator functions of the IP address.
|    Transport protocols then use the identifier, which doesn't 
|    change during
|    the lifetime of the session, while IP uses the locator, 
|    which may be
|    changed at any time in order to route around broken parts of the
|    network.
|    
|    A few things that need to be addressed to make this happen:
|    
|    - Locators must always be present in each packet. But what 
|    about the
|      identifiers? Do we include them in each packet (= 
|    tunneling) or are
|      they implied?
|    
|    - How do we discover identifiers and/or locators?
|    
|    - How to we authenticate the relationship between locators and
|      identifiers?
|    
|    There is also the question of what makes good identifiers. 
|    HIP uses the
|    fingerprint of a cryptographic key. MHAP uses

I agree.  I am trying to get people to come here doing it now.  Seems to
be some kind of issue I don't get though.  Probably afraid to get
unproffessional mail responses is one comment I heard from the IETF
lists???  That's too bad.

How does MIPv6 fit the model?

Also I am not against trying I just said suspect.

WOuld like to see model though as I believe the two can be overloaded.
Maybe not.

Because it separates location from identity.

YMMV.  In my opinion it does not.  It does *almost*
separate location from identity, but not quite.
At least if you do with the current security
solutions.  If you invent better scalable security,
then maybe.

[For current MN-HA security, you need a pre-established
security context.  For MN-CN security, you rely on
HoT packets, periodically (every 5 minutes) sent through
the Home Agent.]

I would like to second Tony's request.  We would do well to fully 
understand all of the architectural limitations to making this 
separation happen.  There is now a lot of work in this space from which 
we can build.  HIP, 8+8, and MIPv6 are good starting points.  The NSRG 
still has a forthcoming RFC on these points.

That is sad.

I would be really interested in this, as multihoming with PA is what I 
suggested in draft-kurtis-mulithoming-longprefix-00.txt. I still think 
that doing it the IPv4 way is the best and fastest hack we have for 
multihoming IPv6.

Best regards,

I think the MIPv6 MHH is on the right track and it is an excellent piece
of technical work.  I have read it twice and I believe it could work.

But I also like the note to all in GAPI which states we have two sets of
space. THe unicast space and the MHH space.  I for now like that
thinking model.

If we can make them implied its an extra condition check for routers and
hosts but will make the overall architecture less heavy and less to
manage.  I believe in overload though it is complex to implement not
impossible.

Still parsing the PI space MHAP.  But that is on the right road.

I suggest not being dependent on crypto anything is wise it implies PKI
to the solution and I fear that is a non-starter?

No comment.  I agree with Tony lets get the Macro done.

I do think we need to work on the Model so it is clear to all and then
we can do the architecture and then apply implementation discussion?

You believe this because the CoA is not the HoA?

I am not convinced yet either.

But the fact that the MN can restate its location via CoA via BU via
RR+IPsec with HA.  Then the type-2 RH permits packet to get to MN via CN
via HoA.

Seems there is a bit of the abstraction for sure.

It also makes the MIPv6 MHH spec out quite believable.

But that is only part of the solution and I will stop there as I said we
need the model defined even before the architecture solution.  

We could view the MH model as XML
We could view the MH Architecture as Java
We could view the MH implementations as JDK X.X version

XML can support multiple descriptions.
Java can compile multiple descriptions.
The JDK can provide multiple primitives for exectution via libraries.

I don't think we need a choice - today.

We need something now though - which leads me to this draft....: -)

Do we agree on the following (I don't care about the high order
words/terms).
=20
Reducing Peering:
=20
If a sites end systems do not depend on providers peering, but can
always failover to other provider from within the site, this reduces the
routing tables for the providers, and for the routers within the
Internet in the MHH case?
=20
Would this solve an immediate problem from IPv6 MHH case?
=20
thanks

Chaotic Routing:
=20
Whatever we define today will become chaotic tomorrow?
=20
Does fractal analysis teach us anything?  We may be able to group
fractals for a period of time, but by definition the inherent chaotic
property of those fractals will destroy any static order defined?
=20
So there are multiple levels to address the Chaotic Routing model:
=20
1. At time T the topology is at Location A
2. At time T1 the topology is at Location A+1
=20
Could it be we need enhancement to routing protocols to just exist for
Location change?
=20
Then under that routing we know how to do now based on that Location
change, it becomes adaptive to Location A+1.
=20
Predicting chaotic rate of change is impossible I suggest, and the best
we can do is define Location and within specific rendezvous segments
within that Location, which can be adaptive to T+1?

Dave,

Assuming nothing.  Asking.  Setting a model. If we all agree on base
principles/assumptions we can move forward. 

But I agree with your interpretations except for one I think?

>> But we cannot hard code identifiers in silicon? 


>There is no _technical_ reason this couldn't be done. People concerned

We don't want people to put identifiers in my CD player EIA interfaces
if they exist within the context of location.  The stateless property of
the IPv6 architecture permits that can be changed by processing on the
local network.
Also we want my CD player to be able to support a self healing link
partition if I change the IPv6 scope of identifier, or merge two links
to one link local domain as two examples.

Ergo XXX Electronics cannot burn IPv6 addresses in their chips and
assume permanent identification.  Even identifiers are chaotic and IPv6
architecture implies this is not technically wise.

In addition to privacy nut-cakes who are worried about my CD player and
refridgerator being attacked by the boogie man :---)

Before long that piece of CD hifi is more likely to be a wireless MP3
player which could download new tracks from anywhere.   But if you are
constrained to the home I wouldn't want my appliances using well-known
MAC prefixes either else an inventory of household electronics is on
the wire as my TV/TiVo accesses programme info or my CD accesses the cddb
or my fridge auto-orders more beer.  Of course most households have these
items, but the MAC address might identify high-end products - so it's
not just a concern of privacy nut-cakes :)

(BTW, for my CD or MP3 player to query cddb to lookup track info the lack
of a stateless DNS discovery method means you need a DHCP client in your 
MP3 player...)

Will RFID map into V6 in a sensible manner?

If there was even a restricted subset mapping, what kinds of things could we
do with it?

Kurt,

It may well be the fastest.  Certainly the old way usually is.
And it may be the 'best' that we have right now because we don't
have agreement on a better path.  However, if we do go down the
path of long prefix distribution, the core is almost certain to
implode.  Here, there be dragons that we should avoid.

And regarding the issue of 'choice', we need there to be no
choice in the matter.  If there is a choice in how to multi-home,
then some folks will inevitably choose the wrong way and we
will again implode.

	Freedom from choice: it's what you want.

As I said in my previous message, identity is independent of location.  
Reachability of identifiers is dependent on location.

None of these are identity issues, they are location issues.

Given current IPv6 addressing architecture, this is very true -- it 
would be very silly.

However, if they only burned the lower 64 bits of an IPv6 address into 
their chips as permanent identifiers, there is no issue provided those 
identifiers are globally unique.

In the context of routing, IPv6 treats the lower 64 bits as opaque 
values, does it not?

That's a big if.  I think it can be done and margin of duplication would
be minimal.

For one Format Prefix yes.  But not all.  This was part of the Robert
Elz objection to the recent addr arch to IAB.

I agree with most of what David said, except for this.  I interpret
Jim's comment as asking
if the identifier is local to a particular location.  In other words, it
acts as the low order bits
of the 'address'.  The issue with this is that it makes absolute
identification a bit more
challenging.  For example, suppose that A, B, C, ... are locators and we
have identifier Z.
=20
A.Z and B.Z just happen to be the same host because it's multihomed, but
then C.Z is another
host entirely.  What happens?  It means that hosts can no longer key on
'Z', and then have to
have other mechanisms so that they can determine that A.Z and B.Z are
the same host, both
at an insecure and secure level.
=20
If Z is instead global, then I believe that the identification problem
is a bit simpler.  Consider the
role of looking up the TCB in your TCP implementation.  You just index
by Z and ports and you're
done.  No futzing around trying to figure out if A.Z and B.Z are the
right thing.
=20
For this reason, I would tend to favor making identifiers global.  I
think it's just simpler.
However, the other way probably CAN be made to work with enough effort.
In my mind, this
is one of the microarchitectural pieces that we don't need to argue
about now.

	Not sure what this means. Reachability to a given identifier
depends on its locator, so perhaps I'd say yes. =20

Yep.  I suppose a terrorist could infect my fridge with some kind of
virus and then I could eat that and die.  Bummer.  Yep better be able to
change my MAC address (identifier) :---)

Ahaha......another argument to support SHOULD for M/O bits for stateful

fridge, when low it shows up on your porch :--)

I'm sure that I need a couple of shots of Scotch before I'm in the frame

clarify.

You're suggesting that routing not only know where static hosts are, but
also
ones that are changing location and that routing try to 'predict' where
the host
will be next.  Did I get that right?
=20
If I could write code that did that, I'd use it on the stock market, not
on the

I agree.  But can we make them global?  I think so.  Ted Lemon fought
this battle in DHCPv6 and there may be a precedent there at least it had
consensus in that forum/WG.  And we did come up with these really far
fetched ways of breaking Teds postulate but it was silliness to even
worry about it.  Nothing will be perfect.
Good point about Z +  Port to find TCB.  It must be possible I think.
But my fridge should be able to update its identifier I think.

	I agree with most of what David said, except for this.  I
interpret Jim's comment as asking
	if the identifier is local to a particular location.  In other
words, it acts as the low order bits
	of the 'address'.  The issue with this is that it makes absolute
identification a bit more
	challenging.  For example, suppose that A, B, C, ... are
locators and we have identifier Z.
	=20
	A.Z and B.Z just happen to be the same host because it's
multihomed, but then C.Z is another
	host entirely.  What happens?  It means that hosts can no longer
key on 'Z', and then have to
	have other mechanisms so that they can determine that A.Z and
B.Z are the same host, both
	at an insecure and secure level.
	=20
	If Z is instead global, then I believe that the identification
problem is a bit simpler.  Consider the
	role of looking up the TCB in your TCP implementation.  You just
index by Z and ports and you're
	done.  No futzing around trying to figure out if A.Z and B.Z are
the right thing.
	=20
	For this reason, I would tend to favor making identifiers
global.  I think it's just simpler.
	However, the other way probably CAN be made to work with enough
effort.  In my mind, this
	is one of the microarchitectural pieces that we don't need to
argue about now.

		 Can identifiers be within the context of Location?=20


		Not sure what this means. Reachability to a given
identifier depends on its locator, so perhaps I'd say yes. =20

 Do we believe that providers should know location of all nodes on the
Internet without peering?=20
=20
=20
That implies that you can route based on static location and implies
that your locators are independent of the
network topology.  Unfortunately, that is exactly the reverse of what
scales.  It implies that you must flood=20
topology information for the entire net.
=20
=20
 Do we believe that providers should know location of all nodes within a
specific topology, without peering?=20
=20
Same answer.  You either distribute full topology information or prefix
information.
=20
 Do we believe that providers should know location of all nodes within a
specific topology within specific rendezvous points within the
aforementioned specific topology, without peering?=20
=20
I can't parse.

 Do we believe that providers should only know peerings for providers
that exist near specific locations?=20

This either.

Reducing the dynamic path implies that you're extending the static
information.
If that information is effectively static (e.g., a singly homed site),
then having
that information be static is a fine things.  Certainly what most folks
do with
tail circuits today.
=20
However, static routing to key locations locks you into those static
paths, which may
then fail.  What now?
=20
Note that you can do dynamic routing to a key location (a landmark) and
then dynamic
routing from there, but you quite possibly lose out on more optimal
paths.  I believe
that someone has written a paper on just this, tho I can't confess to
representing it.

If a host has multiple locators and a single identifier and other hosts
are able to change
the locator that they are using at will, then it implies that special
routing information
about that site need not be propagated upwards.  Effectively, the site
has PA space
from each of its providers and that PA space is nicely aggregated in
global routing.
=20
Yes, this makes MHH's much nicer for global routing, tho it may still
lead to issues
with local routing.  Kinda depends what you want to do within your IGP.
One could
reasonably argue that you take the layer of separation down recursively.
=20
Note that this alleviates the most painful reason to avoid PA space:
renumbering is
now a non-issue.  You assign a new locator to your entire site,
advertise it to the
world and you're good to go.  Individual host identifiers need not
change.  No host
renumbering.

Routers don't have to do anything, just the end points. Having the
identifier in each packet really doesn't buy you any simplicity since
the relationship between the locators and identifiers must be
authenticated to steer clear of endless security troubles.

No, HIP is smarter than that. But what I find troublesome with that
approach is that the identifiers are a flat 120+ bit space which makes
it incredibly hard to create a distributed way to look up properties for
identifiers.

Sounds good to me.

Sure.

Assume for discussion there are only two locations X and Y.

If X is location for X1, X2, ....Xn and Y is location for Y1, Y2, ...Yn


X only has to worry about its routes and only if something comes to X
for Y.

If X1 moves to Y it becomes Y-'X1' (being the global id of X but now
part of Y)

So Locations are static to start simply for high order route prefixes or
locators how ever they are to be defined.

Now suppose that Y gets to big or to chaotic and the routing
tables/performance/etc is predicted to be bad soon.  

Then we have a way to take Y and make Y and Z and now we have three
locations X, Y, and Z.  THis would be a formal location change control
routing protocol.

So I am not saying predict movement but design it into the algorithm for
location "expansion" via routing protoocol and inherent to the
architecture.  

Location change would have to be propogated across the system yes.

Using ipv6mh ideas if we define specific locations this can be done for
a long time with IPv6 128bits on planet earth.  That's a lot of bits.

So this is a means to adapt to the chaos of change we cannot see.  Like
right now and more so very soon imagine all the IP devices about to
descend.  Then nano sensors.  Then stuff I can't imagine right now
without some sleep :---) THe point is the system keeps growing and then
splitting much like our galaxy :--) There is no order its all chaos.
All we can do is see patterns and adapt through location routing
updates.

That is why extensibility is key to any protocol (earlier comment this
a.m.).  We reached the limit with IPv4 and now bad stuff is going to
happen if it is not replaced expediently. So if we can compromise here
on an answer with IPv6 and not break apps/apis/basic stuff but alter to
get to location + identifier we are probably ok for 20-30 years.  And if
not well we do it again.  Not much lasts longer than that regardless of
what we do.  The IETF is an infinite recursive effort for all time now
:---)  Unless we really screw up and blow up the planet.

Did that help?

This is old-style thinking.  :-)

What makes a good identifier? Not something like an EUI64 identifier,
for the following reasons:

1. no usable hierarchy, hard to create a distributed database
2. when I replace my network card, I haven't changed my identity
3. It would be extremely hard to make sure each EUI64 is only used once
   globally
4. I could very well be using several network cards but it's still
   always "me"

So we need to identify hosts rather than interfaces. But we can be even
more radical if we want to: an identity could be assigned to a service
or other resource that lives on more than one host. If I want to connect
to www.cnn.com, do I care whether I get www4.cnn.com or www7.cnn.com? On
the other hand, when i have a connection, I want to keep communicating
with the same host for the life time of the connection.

I feel FQDNs are the ideal identifiers. They have a good hierarchy and
the past 10 years or so have shown that building a distributed database
to look up properties associated with them can work well. Also, it is
possible to map arbitrary stuff (IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, phone numbers)
to FQDNs so it should still be possible to adopt "better" identifiers
later. (Or "inferior" ones first for backward compatibility.)

(But maybe I'm getting ahead of things.)

> >  But we cannot hard code identifiers in silicon?

> There is no _technical_ reason this couldn't be done.

Again, how are you going to look them up? Without some form of hierarchy
you need a centralized database. This is unworkable on a global scale.

Even assuming they come out of the factory with unique addresses

address) how long is this going to stay unique after my little brother
types "man ifconfig"?

Sure, it's possible to repair all these problems, but why exactly were
we doing this in the first place again...? Hardware addresses make bad
identifiers. Just give me 64 bytes of NVRAM so I can burn in the
identifier of my choice.

As long as they are unique enough within a site, I can't see a problem.  All
you want is to not be mistaken for someone else in the quagmire of the internet
soup.  A site is a pretty good approximation.  The GUID is only a few more bits
of uniqueness.

What we need here is something that uniquely identifies one end of a
transport session for at least the duration of such a session (for which
there is no clear upper bound). The lower 64 bits of an IP address can't
be such an identifier because several hosts on the internet can use the
same value for the lower 64 bits of their address at the same time and
there is no way to make sure they won't try to communicate with the same
host at the same time.

We have duplicate address detection on local links for a reason...

No. MIPV6 is on IP layer having no idea on proper time out values,
which depends on transport/application layers, and is not a solution.

I see no problem not to let RIRs assign IPv6 addresses.

In a sense, yes. It is necessary to involve DNS for, say, ID->locator
mapping.

However, a problem of using a domain name as an identifier is that
not all the packets contain the domain name.

If you work hard, connection oriented protocols such as TCP may
mostly work. But, the approach is not applicable to the connectionless
Internet.

Another desirable property (to prevent source locator forging etc.) is
to let source ISPs modify the source locator, which is impossible
with 16+16.

Not at all. 3GPP may use IPv6 as private IP-based telephone network.
But that's all. Distinguish VoIP over charged IP-based telehone
network and free "Voice over the Internet".

The commercial value ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$) of a network
is proportional to the number of users connected to it.

The Internet has defeated leagacy networks only because very
small users was using the leagacy networks for data communmication.

Within 10 years, maybe.

But, it can not be a reason to argue against modification to IPv6.

As I said, we deplyed LIN6-based homed environment with hundreds
of routers.

If you call it production level IPv6 deployment, I'm fine.

But, it does not change the reality that IPv6 is not deployed not
even in Japan.

You seems to be having a very strange view to Japan.

I have never heard about a sword called "a kanto sword".

Or, are you talking about Occam's Razor to be applicable to the
current IPv6 specification?

I didn't mean including explicit signaling in the normal traffic, but
just _looking_ at the normal traffic to see if everything still works.
This could work by having a list of destination hosts we're
communicating with. Each time a normal-looking packet (ie non-ICMP,
non-tunnel, non-multicast, big enough so it's not just an ACK) goes out,
some session state is saved and a timer is started. When the timer
elapses (after 5 or 10 seconds or so)  without any return traffic, we do
a "real" reachability check. So during normal traffic flow, there is no
need for explicit or piggy-backed reachability checks. This probably
needs some more heuristics, but I think it could work well.

> However this mechanism allows the it is used also in unidirectional
> traffic, which i guess is a good feature

All regular unicast protocols need some form of acknowledgement in order
to keep the traffic flowing. Without this, traffic would continue to
flow long after the receiver has disappeared. That would be extremely
bad.

The number of addresses per interface isn't really an issue, I would
think. In v4 having several addresses for a DNS name isn't all that
unusual:

> host www.cnn.com
www.cnn.com is a nickname for cnn.com
cnn.com has address 64.236.24.28
cnn.com has address 64.236.16.20
cnn.com has address 64.236.16.52
cnn.com has address 64.236.16.84
cnn.com has address 64.236.16.116
cnn.com has address 64.236.24.4
cnn.com has address 64.236.24.12
cnn.com has address 64.236.24.20

Actually this may make it worse, as the "best" address is always
selected. If the "best" address is unreachable, no dice. At least with
random or round robin you can hit reload to try again.

I agree that better and more optimal failure detection can be provided,
which could use some of these ideas.
I am more worried about MIPv6 timers though...

Sorry i am probably missing something...
>From RFC 3484

6. Destination Address Selection

   The destination address selection algorithm takes a list of
   destination addresses and sorts the addresses to produce a new list.
                                                                  ^^^^
I guess that applications now obtain a list of addresses, after the
default address selection mechanism has sorted them.
Moreover, the first rule of the mechanism discards unreachable
destinations, so if one of multiple is unreachable it will be included
last.

Not really.  Distributes hash tables (DHT) should work.  Somebody
just need to work out the details; they are not exactly simple, though.
But not that complicated either, I would believe.  See the proceedings
of recent peer-to-peer conferences and you will find multiple occasions
where DHTs have been used.

My assumption is those locations are minimal.  Forward to them is fast
lookup and high order bits.  Failover is not a function IMO of any
protocol but implementation.  But the protocol should have features
within it to permit failover.  

As a note I figured out how to completely failover TCP and SCTP and UDP
in implementation, and including all protocol context and state and
transfer that state in proprietary manner.  Hopefully I will get rich
:--).  But to do it in open source and public domain manner requires
protocol attributes.  The BU for MIPv6 is very close to provide this
either in router or host but not complete solution.

This sounds very good.  Besides the macro view we also have to realize
we will not achieve perfection.

I agree.  I do not believe this is a solution but put it here to kill
it.

I think answer is different.  If the topology sectors are say under
ordinal 100?
Why is that unreasonable.  We do not need all topology flood for each
topology sector or AS domain.  It is a simple fast path to 100 or less
locations?  I believe we can begin the locations less than 20 initially
for IPv6?


>>Do we believe that providers should know location of all nodes within

>I can't parse.

If location became greater than 100 then within each topology some
locations become redezvous point (RZP).  The RZPs are not propogated
above any topology sector. It is hierarchical lower route only to that
location?  

>>Do we believe that providers should only know peerings for providers

>This either.

Provider = Topology Sectors.  Providers would not know RZPs in other
Sectors?

Uhh, no.  HIP requires either DNSsec or opportunistic key distribution a

Opportunistic key distribution a la SSH works pretty well.

Going further, HIP *without* DNSsec/PKI is slightly *more*
secure than today's insecured TCP/UDP, even if HIP is used
to implement mobility and/or multihoming.  See our security '
analysis in our recent NDSS'03 paper.

However, if you want to use HIP to secure something that
goes beyond mobility or multi-homing, or want to achieve
a security level that is more than slightly more secure
than the current unsecured IPv4, you have to rely on
DNSsec, or accept the vulnerabilities in opportunistic mode.

Summary:  HIP without DNSsec or PKI can provide security
for mobility and/or multi-homing that is acceptable according
to the current security requirements.

Clarification.  Above you have "conjunction" ...and other hosts?  I

That is where I was going with RZPs.

So the locators for this site is known by all of the sites providers,
correct?

your IGP.

Agree but what one does with IGP should not break peer-to-peer
applications between remote provider on the other side of the planet.
IPsec between those two peers without any translation of the packets
headers.  

Do we agree on that and this is a core principle for any Internet
engineer one way or the other?  Has nothing to do with routing except as
input to what one is willing to give up in the design of routing
architecture and an important point to raise amongst ourseleves on the
list !!!!

>One could reasonably argue that you take the layer of separation down 
>recursively.

Within the IGP from the Provider space?  If that, then I agree.

>Note that this alleviates the most painful reason to avoid PA space:

But above you state "nicely aggregates provider space"?  Can you
rectify?
 
>renumbering is now a non-issue.  You assign a new locator to your

>advertise it to the world and you're good to go.  Individual host

But still implies locators can change?  For example one move to
completely new providers?

Your location is not worldwide provider space but only for relative
provider space for a site?
Is that correct?

Not a fan of HIP.  But should I go down that rathole and my issues with
it?
At least for now.  Rather spend my energy on the model/architecture
agreement.

Not having read the paper, I think we agree -- what's basically left is 
on-the-path attackers, local attackers or DNS-based forgery.  All of those 
are also problems in the unsecured IPv4.  DNS-based forgery may be a bit 
easier though, but that might need more analysis.

However, my complaint with HIP model is that it seems so closely tied to
ESP and security.  Is it possible to use HIP without IPsec ESP?  Or do you
have to use ESP with null encryption?

The security model above is possibly ok if the user gets no assumption 
that "because I use HIP, I must be secure now".

There is no architectural reasons why you couldn't use HIP
without ESP.  For example, you could use two IP headers,
the inner one carrying HIP ids (HITs) and the outer one
locators, i.e. conventional IP addresses.   However, what's
the point, it would take 40 bytes, and ESP takes less.  You
can always use ESP with null encryption, and even with no
integrity protection if you really want.

Now, we have had some loose chat about how to use HIP without
any extra headers, i.e. just an IP header followed by TCP/UDP.
However, given that we would have to be prepared to talk to both
HIP enabled and non-HIP enabled hosts at the same time, it would
require some trickery at the kernel, and that might be brittle.

If you loose security requirements even more, it would even be
possible to use opportunistic HIP without the Diffie-Hellman
key exchange, but that would be vulnerable to bidding down
attacks.  Thus, I haven't bothered to think about that any further.

No.  An identifier can have hierarchy if desired.  What is important is 
that the identifier hierarchy is independent of the location hierarchy.

Whether you've changed 'your' identity depends on what you are calling 
the endpoint of communication.  If the endpoint is a toaster and the 
network connector dies, it is likely you'll be replacing the toaster, 
thus the identity has changed.

Using your argument above, what if I move to a different host?  If 
identity is mapped to higher level constructs, I would want 
communications to move with me.

One (not the only) obvious solution, using your ideal identifiers: play 
the ENUM game.  If you have a EUI64 identifier, ASCII encode the 
nybbles and append a TLD, say eui64,arpa.  This name could map into a 
set of locators.

Yes. But then the application still has to go through the trouble of
trying every address. I don't think web browsers typically do that. (And
if the user has to wait for a timeout, it might not matter anyway.)

For your experimentation pleasure I have created some DNS names with 7
IPv4 and/or IPv6 addresses, only one of which works. It's a Cisco, so
you can telnet, but HTTP is probably more interesting (if it works,
you'll get an authentication requester). The names are:

tryme.bgpexpert.com trymev4.bgpexpert.com trymev6.bgpexpert.com

How does the resolver library know which addresses are reachable? Or
usable for the application in question?

Hm, I'm not very familiar with this technique and I can't find a good
explanation of how it applies to the problem at hand right now. But it
seems to me that such a distributed system is very vulnerable to
malicious nodes holding back information that they are supposed to
share. Also, the self-organizing could make unsuspecting nodes attract
more traffic than they can handle.

It works a lot less well if you don't have local storage to keep the
keys, or if node A wants to refer node B to node C.

The problem I see with HIP is that you can't initiate a session with
just the identifier to identify the host you want to communicate with.
Now that would be fine if it were possible to feed this identifier to a
lookup engine and get back something you _can_ use to initiate a
session. But this isn't possible either. So effectively the HIP
identifier serves no identifying purpose.

Cool. Now if only it could provide functionality...

Note that I'm not anti-HIP. I'm sure there are problems that can be
solved by HIP. But it can't be a general solution for multihoming as it
only moves the problem to a different area.

thomas narten is retiring back to the sunny palms of the iesg
holiday cruise after some years of getting this wg on the rails.
thanks thomas.

as readers of swedish will already know, Kurtis Lindqvist
<kurtis@kurtis.pp.se> is joing sean as co-chair of the wg.
be kind to him.

Sure, an identifier can. But an EUI64 can't. (Note that the vendor/other
part distinction is of no use here.)

I was thinking more along the lines of computers. If I change a NIC, I
don't want the box to change its behavior other than that the network
connection is now better.

Fair enough. I think we should keep an open mind about this. However, I
see no reasonable way to accomplish it. A service moving from one host
to another is a different matter, though. I think a next generation
identifier should definately support that. (But not necessarily without
breaking sessions.)

What does that buy us? That means that either you have to cooperate with
the people who bought NICs with the same high order 60 bits as you and
together run a server that provides the mapping from your identifier to
the locators you use.

Alternatively, the eui64.arpa people have to manage 2^64 delegations.

I won't. However, this 64 bytes should be more than enough to store a
globally or subnet unique value that the host can use at boot time, even
if it doesn't have (access to) permanent storage. This way, I can make
sure my boxes keep using the same address without having to use a
configuration server even if I swap some hardware around.

I fully agree that this is a far from perfect model. However, note one 
thing. I only advocate the _announcement_ of a longer prefix, not 
_allocation_. If I change provider, I need to hand the address space 
back.

But let's look at the explosion of the routing table. Today there are 
15k ASes in the DFZ. If these all have three upstreams that is 45k 
routes. If we use all the 16-bit AS numbers we have around 192k routes. 
This is a poor calculation and comparison, but the fact is  that the 
natural aggregation of the larger IPv6 allocations are helping us here. 
I still think that what will limit multihoming for the coming years is 
not scarcity of resources but the  cost of doing it.

Last, as we today think that a policy of not announcing longer prefixes 
are prohibiting this, I assume that we believe we can enforce this in 
the future as well? That gives us a potential roll-back scenario. Also 
note that this is almost more of documenting BCP than defining a new 
policy.-

There will be different choices at different times. We need apply the 
solution we have today with zero implementation. And I don't see any 
other alternative. six months from now we might have something better. 
Let's do that then.

I heard Tony's comment from many other persons too. Although I do see
some potential in what you wrote, and as mentioned yesterday I see it
from a different prospective, allow me to remind you what reality here
is:

Quote from the one and only document in this WG:

As chair, you simply can not recommend to go a way that blatantly
violates the only working document we have. This text is clear, and it's
a "MUST" not a "must" which has a very specific meaning as per RFC 2119.

Michel.

To be pedantic, the requirements doc doesn't specify the starting 
point: orders of magnitude more multihomed sites than exist today on 
the v6 network is still easily achievable using 
draft-kurtis-call-me-when-we-get-1000-routes-in-the-dfz-00.

I do not agree. It is clear from that paragraph that the starting point
is either "Current IPV4 multihoming practices" or "the Internet's BGP
Routing Table". Without an accompanying "than xxxx" the "more" refers to
the text immediately above.

|   Current IPV4 multihoming practices contribute to the

Thank you very much !!!

We have tried it with the Konqueror browser.
Its behaviour was:

It tried with the first address => it was a "fake" address so it failed
but it received a host unreachable message (almost immediately)
Then it tried with the next one => it was the good one Ok!

This seems to be an suitable behaviour for our needs, right?

(What i didn't told you is that it only tries with 2 addresses, so if
the real one was the third, it would have failed)

So it seems to me that different aps have different behaviour.

I still think that this is reasonable mechanism for selecting the first
address, it is pretty fast if the host unreachable message is sent,
also. 
But i do agree with you that it is application dependent. Perhaps we
need more feedback from application developers?

It tries and if it is not working, this result is cached for next
attempts (this is one possible mechanism included in the spec)

Not at all.

The global routing table should contain one entry for each tier1
ISP or, maybe, a little more than that.

Initially, there may be 10.

AS numbers, of course, may be assigned to tier2 and other ISPs,
which have multiple peers to other ISPs and want to control
traffic with BGP.

|    I fully agree that this is a far from perfect model.

All of the pain and none of the gain?  Any announcement of longer
prefixes is at the expense of routing scalability.

   
|    But let's look at the explosion of the routing table. 
|    Today there are 
|    15k ASes in the DFZ. If these all have three upstreams that is 45k 
|    routes. If we use all the 16-bit AS numbers we have around 
|    192k routes. 
|    This is a poor calculation and comparison, but the fact is 
|     that the 
|    natural aggregation of the larger IPv6 allocations are 
|    helping us here. 
|    I still think that what will limit multihoming for the 
|    coming years is 
|    not scarcity of resources but the  cost of doing it.


The cost of multihoming is falling.  Today, sitting at home on
my couch, I can easily connect to my neighbor's WAP.  If we
were to tweak things a bit, both of us would be multi-homed
through the other.  In fact, the cost of connectivity is 
continuing to fall, so one might expect that the cost of
multi-homing will fall too.  

If you subscribe to the view that businesses find the Web
interface to be important, then it stands to reason that the
interest in multihoming would continue to grow.

    
|    Last, as we today think that a policy of not announcing 
|    longer prefixes 
|    are prohibiting this, I assume that we believe we can 
|    enforce this in 
|    the future as well? That gives us a potential roll-back 
|    scenario. Also 
|    note that this is almost more of documenting BCP than 
|    defining a new 
|    policy.-


It's very unlikely that we can ever undo what was done before.
You may recall the flap during the CIDR days about asking
people to renumber so that we could aggregate.

And then, six months from now, someone stands up and says "thanks,

Do it right the first time, or not at all.

You are right.  More work is needed.  As I wrote, someone
should work out the details how to utilize DHTs, perhaps
in conjunction with DNS.  Or something similar.

I would say that _currently_ such a mechanism does not exist.
But I would *not* say that it is not _possible_.  The fact
that such a solution does not currently exist does not make
it impossible to create one.

I have a hunch that a DHT based solution should not be too
complicated.  However, to really see how DHTs would fit in
to the DNS model would require some kind of an idea how DNS
servers are going to be distributed in the IPv6 space, and I
don't currently have any good guesses for that.  If someone
could provide one, that might help.

The question is really about load balancing between DNS
servers so that no one gets too much load.  Integrity is
not much a problem.   I see some potential DoS problems,
but it is easy enough to provide completely independent
servers with DHT structures.

I couldn't understand that.  Could you please explain?

So you want me to come up with a completely worked out solution?
Cool!  :-)   Should I will crawl back to my research cubicle until
I find someting?  :-)

More seriously, personally I believe that HIP has large potential
for end-host multi-homing.  Much more than the ID->locator
mapping I see the crypto overhead (Diffie-Hellman) as a problem.
There are also lots of other details to be worked out, with time.
Furthermore, HIP is definitely not a solution for doing large site
multi-homing, other solutions are needed for that.

As I said, I'm not up to speed with DHT but I can envision something
like this: the address space is spread out as a flat one-dimensional
space, where everyone who has a prefix points to a number of others
higher and lower (For instance, x + 1, x + 2, x + 4, x + 8 for higher
and so on). Then you can do something close to a binary search by
jumping up and down through the address space from server to server in
ever smaller jumps.

This could work extremely well except for one tiny problem: what if some
nodes don't cooperate and don't follow the protocol?

This is essentially the same old problem: looking up entries in huge
piles of data that lacks a hierarchical structure simply doesn't scale.

Maybe this is already in there (I can't remember the latest HIP
identifier structure, but it's no longer 127 bits of fingerprint, AFAIK)
but just in case: why don't you shrink the fingerprint part to 64 or 80
bits. Then you can use the high 48 or 64 bits in a DNS-compatible

It's like pointing to something in a dark room. The action seems valid
but the result is disappointing.  :-)

With today's FQDNs and IP addresses there is a fairly simple
relationship: each can map to the other. With FQDNs, HIP identifiers and
locators this gets a bit complicated. I really think the FQDN is the
actual identifier here, not the HIP id. (But I don't think it serves
much of a purpose to duke this out.)

Agree. HIP is good if you're on a single host and need the security. We
still need other stuff.

Good question.

Let RIRs define it.

It can, for example, be defined purely technically with # of POPS and
so on or purely financially with auction.

  It took me a bit to understand the question. 

  I think that providers should be able to tell:
    1) if a node is reachable by peering or by another method.
    2) if another method, then they should be able to identify the method
       from the address.

  So, my answer is possibly no.
  I don't see how we can scale without losing information.

Hmmm.

If you believe this to be an appropriate function of the RIRs, feel 
free to propose it for an RIR public policy meeting.

You just take a different hash (or a different part
of an hash), and try again.  Or something like that,
it's been a few months since I read the DHT papers,
and I don't remember the details any more.

Yes it does, if the data is randomly distributed.

If it is hierarchical, you can use a tree structure.
If it is randomly distributed, you can use a hash structure.

The trick is how you distribute your hash structure.
We know how to distrubute a tree structures.  Distributed
hash tables is exactly the method for distributing hash
structures.  (Sorry that I can't be more specific or write
a tutorial, but the DHT stuff is too new for me, too.)

It's there:

    There are two formats for HIT.  These two formats are designed to
    avoid the most commonly occurring IPv6 addresses in RFC2373 [3].
    Bits 0 and 1 are used to differentiate the formats.  If Bit 0 is zero
    and Bit 1 is one, then the rest of HIT is a 126 bits of a SHA-1 hash
    of the Host Identity. If Bit 0 is one and Bit 1 is zero, then the
    next 62 bits is the Host Assigning Authority (HAA) field, and only
    the last 64 bits come from a SHA-1 hash of the Host Identity.  This
    format for HIT is recommended for 'well known' systems.  It is
    possible to support a resolution mechanism for these names in
    directories like DNS. Another use of HAA is in policy controls.

> I really think the FQDN is the

There we have the difference.  Computers don't understand names.
Names are just bit strings to them.  Public keys make *re*cognition
possible to computers, just like faces make it to people.

  Why is this a problem for you?

  I think that we very much need better security. This is end-to-end
security. P4s don't even notice doing 3DES (let alone AES), and TPCA may
put hardware accelerators on every motherboard.

Yes -- with certain tradeoffs: to preserve established sessions, you 
*typically* have to react quickly, and of course the sessions should be 
preservable for the duration of the failure, but that's not as hard a 
requirement to me (ie. if you get a warning that connections have failed, 
using backups whic will help you for the next 5 minutes, shut them down 
gracefully if the break is expected to last longer).

Yes, definitely the reaction time would have to be shorter.  However, I'm 
not sure if the HOTI/COTI exchange is the right mechanism for that: I'm 
not sure whether it scales down properly. (It was never meant as a 
heartbeat mechanism.)

Due to the RR procedure, it doesn't protect you from on-the-link or 
on-the-path attackers.  Attackers which *have been* on the link or on the 
path can wreak havoc to up to MAX_RR_BINDING_LIFETIME (420 s) after 
leaving the link or the path.

Cranking it up significantly would certainly have implications but slight 
modifications probably not so much (e.g. if your friendly router 
implementation rebooting takes 430 seconds, the lifetime could very well 
be 600 seconds).  The order of magnitude matters.

.. but there may be something I'm missing.

Indeed -- some mechanism do this always, some just after the fact (when 
suspecting some error has occurred, e.g. TCP acks get delayed), some both.

Doesn't work -- the host will detect that the prefix is on-link, and will 
try to reach it by sending neighbor solicitation to it.  The access router 
would have to perform proxy-ND for it.

An appropriate function of RIRs is to develop policy on how one
can be qualified to be assigned resources such as addresses.

IETF should tell RIRs that at most 10, for example, TLA should be
assinged and details will be figured out within RIRs.

Two words: Middleboxes, policy. 

Yeah, those are something that security hackers aren't concerned about..

Jim,

|    and other hosts
|    are able >to change the locator that they are using at 
|    will, then it
|    implies that special

|    Clarification.  Above you have "conjunction" ...and other hosts?  I

I think that a host should be able to change the set of locators
that make it reachable at will.  The rate that the system can
disseminate these changes is still TBD, but there obviously
needs to be an upper bound (no pun intended ;-).

Correspondent hosts are free to try different locators at any
time.  Typically they will use transport layer hints to
trigger things.


|    >Effectively, the site has PA space from each of its 
|    providers and that
|    PA space >is nicely aggregated in global routing.
|    
|    So the locators for this site is known by all of the sites 
|    providers,
|    correct?


Yes.  Even more strongly, the locators are allocated by the
providers.


|    IPsec between those two peers without any translation of 
|    the packets
|    headers.  


Ipsec, in particular, needs to use the identifier in crafting
the security association, NOT the locators.  [This would also
allow Ipsec to work through NAT.  ;-) ]


|    Do we agree on that and this is a core principle for any Internet
|    engineer one way or the other?  


Please restate with dereferenced pronouns.

  
|    >One could reasonably argue that you take the layer of 
|    separation down

|    
|    Within the IGP from the Provider space?  If that, then I agree.


Within the site IGP, but using the locators provided in PA space.

    
|    >Note that this alleviates the most painful reason to 
|    avoid PA space:
|    
|    But above you state "nicely aggregates provider space"?  Can you
|    rectify?


These aren't incompatible.  Your locators are aggregateable and you
don't need to renumber.  Should make everyone happy...  ;-)

     
|    >renumbering is now a non-issue.  You assign a new locator to your
|    entire site, 
|    >advertise it to the world and you're good to go.  Individual host
|    identifiers 
|    >need not change.  No host renumbering.
|    
|    But still implies locators can change?  For example one move to
|    completely new providers?


Of course.  You add new provider, configure edge router with new
locator prefix, update the locator database and you're done.

    
|    Your location is not worldwide provider space but only for relative
|    provider space for a site?
|    Is that correct?


Locators are part of what we would now think of as PA space.  That is,
they are topologically significant information that vary per-provider.

You don't have to determine it. Cache period of DNS, for example, is
configurable.

IPv6 WG is seriously considering to automate prefix configuration of
routers. But, it seems to me that the automatic update of the database
is impossible, if, as is often the case, the prefix of servers of the
database is being configured. :-)

I can't speak for anyone else, but there are many times I have no need
to obfuscate my communications. In those cases, why should I suffer the
bandwidth, CPU and management overhead of IPsec? (In IPv6 everything
will configure pretty much automatically but doing IPsec of course fully
negates (and more) this advantage.)

This is hardly true: 3DES maxes out at around 200 Mbps if we are to
believe http://www.mediacrypt.com/engl/Downloads/IDEA_Perf_Overall.pdf

In high speed networking, every copy cycle hurts. So how can encryption
be "free"? Also, even if I have a P4 at my disposal (which I don't) I
could very well need the CPU time for something else. And on mobile
devices, this eats up battery power unnecessarily.

There is often a need for crypto. However, there is also often a need to
_not_ have crypto.

Hm, this means that there must be a record with a cryptographic
signature for every possible entry, including non-existing ones so a
node can't fake a "doesn't exist" message. But I still don't like the
idea of having to depend on some random servers somewhere on the net
that I have no influence over.

Ok, I should have mentioned some constraints, mostly "distributed". In a
tree, you can delegate sub-trees to organizations. When using a hash (or
a simple flat space that can be searched using binary search) stuff from
different people ends up on one pile so you need some level of trust to
make it work.

This is a good comparison. Yes, we recognize people by their face, but a
face is not what identifies a person, that's their name and some extra
info to discriminate against people with the same name.

It is a very useful feature if computers can recognize other computers,
but it's only relevant if they can translate this into something a user
can understand, like: "this message was authenticated as written by
jbezos@amazon.com" or "you are now communicating securely with
ietf93registration.ietf.org". In other words: to the user, the
identifier is the FQDN or an application-specific name (usually based on
a FQDN). (But it's ok if there must be some additional mapping between
internal stuff and user stuff.)

    > From: Iljitsch van Beijnum <iljitsch@muada.com>

I've been meaning to send in a minor rant for some time now, and this message
gives me a good hook..

    > Traditional multihoming as is done in IPv4 will not scale.

That is to say, multihoming which is supported entirely by the routing.

    > An alternative is to give each host in a multihomed site an address for
    > each ISP the site is connected to. .. However, current transport
    > protocols are unable to jump to new addresses in mid-session. Solution:
    > separate the identifier and locator functions of the IP address.

Here's my rant:

This group is spending a lot of its time discussing the identity/location
separation. I wish to make it crystal clear that this is a *secondary* issue
when it comes to supporting multi-homing (the expressed purpose of this
group :-).

The way in which one does multi-homing that scales is use of multiple
routing-names (a.k.a. addresses)#. Not as much attention has been given to
this part of the problem (e.g. how do you decide which address to use, how do
you decide when to switch, etc) although I have recently seen some traffic
about it.

But please everyone, keep in mind that separation of location and identity is
*not* what supports multi-homing - what makes multi-homing work is use of
multiple addresses. Separation of location and identity comes in because of
*other* concerns that people have.

	Noel


Note #: I think it's possible to do multi-homing with only a single
routing-name (a.k.a. address) - but to do so would require that the addresses
be asigned automatically by a system which was looking at the actual physical
connectivity. In other words, addresses would not be assigned by a registry,
and would change as the topology changed. In terms of the location/identity
issue, you'd still wind up with the same problem, that an address was not a
useful long-term idenitifer of *who* you were talking to - it would only say
*where* it is.

Today you cannot initiate a connection if all you have is the ssh host
key.  Is this a problem with ssh that needs to be fixed?  If not, then
why does it need to be fixed with HIP?

I also thought I'd mention that you cannot initiate a connection with
a web server if all you have is one of those certificates used to
authenticate the identity of https servers.  But then I realized that
you can, because the dns name of the server is embeded in the
certificate.  The real question is how does anyone ever get their
hands on one of these certificates in the first place?

My real point is that perhaps we do not need to solve this problem.
We can do as ssh does, and start with a DNS name which gets us an IP
address (and perhaps a HIT), then initiate a HIP exchange with
whatever is at that IP address.

(In any case, implementing some sort of DHT as Pekka Nikander suggests
 sounds like a cool idea and an interesting research question.  And
 it may be as easy as he believes.)

Actually you can do easier by not having a "doesn't exist" message.
If you don't get a reply from the primary server, as resolved
from the primary part of the hash, you just try to secondary
server, resolved from another part of the hash.  There can't be
any correlation between the servers (the hash is basically a
random number, pointing you to random servers).  The probability
of collusion between the servers is very very low, and can
be ignored.  Thus, you don't need to have any signatures for
non-existing ones.

Do you feel the same about MHAP randezvous points?

Trust, or random reduncancy.  With random redundancy, you get some
level of byzantine robustness.  Other than that, I agree with you.

Agree.  (As with the rest of your comment.)

That's fine if you're the one initiating the session, but what if you
are on the receiving end? You then get locator IP addresses which may
not have good PTR records (remember, HIP is for mobility too) and a HIP
id that can't be resolved into a name.

...bound to *one* (upper layer) identifier (which can be both a locator
and an identifier (like HoAs)). 

IMHO this is the difficult part (security, preservation of established
connections)

This is solution for a more general problem but it also addresses this
particular issue. If the identifier and the locator are already
separated and the architecture provides tools to bind them safely, i
would say that you have solved the mh problem.

Supporting multiple addresses becomes extremely simple with ID/locator
separation, extremely complex otherwise.

> Separation of location and identity comes in because of
> *other* concerns that people have.

Simplicity of specifications and implementations, which are essential
requirement to have multihoming or anything else.

You are saying to use multiple addresses as the topology change.

You also ignore that if a topology allows for multiple pathes
between hosts, there can be multiple addresses of a host.

And, it is a scalability problem for a registry to reassign addresses
upon topology change to all the affected hosts.

The thing is that we don't need to do anything to allow people to do it the
"current way" (i.e. let the routing handle it, al la IPv4 MH) - in fact, I
doubt we could stop them, actually.

On the other hand, there's no need to put the IETF Gold Seal of Approval on
something we now won't scale in the long term.

Taken together, that all argues that we should press on and say nothing about
the interim IPv4-type thing.

Our LIN6 based scalable multihoming implementaion has been working
for about a year on the world largest mobile IPv6 environment
with more than hundred wireless routers and less than 10 users.

A problem is that we haven't written specification in English, yet. :-)

We can't stop them use IPv4 with IPv4-style multihoming. :-)

Well there is one way of multihoming that provides reasonable benefits
without too many issues that can be deployed today: take address space
from one ISP and announce it to two or more ISPs. As long as there is
peering between these ISPs you're protected against all common failure
modes. (Ok, not counting ISP going bankrupt as "common" here...)

If ISPs filter the /48, there isn't much of an issue as long as the
aggregate is still visible from ISP A and ISP A forwards the traffic to
ISP B.

The one thing that needs some consideration is filtering between ISPs:
if ISP C filters packets it gets from ISP B with ISP A source addresses,
all of this breaks. There are two ways around this: ISP C accepts the
/48 (assuming they're doing uRPF) or they don't filter but trust ISP B
to filter their customers.

Now do this with two /48s from two ISPs and you can start experimenting
with multiaddressing and have a safety net at the same time.

Just one down side for the enterprise: this is PA space, so it is
necessary to renumber when changing ISPs.

Any reason why we shouldn't publish this with the IETF bronze seal of
approval as a temporary best practice?

About the first most important multihoming issue you ranted about in an
earlier message: I don't think we are overlooking this (see my comments
to Marcelo's draft, and my conversion to favoring transport layer
solutions a few months ago). But:

1. This isn't all that controversial
2. Doing it wrong first and improve later doesn't create an
   impossible-to-clean-up-mess (like allowing /48s in the DFZ)

It does not protect a site from ISP failure including but
not limited to bankrupcy.

Moreover, routes to imported addresses can not be aggregated that it
cause a scalability problems within ISPs.

Both true but I don't think this technique is thereby disqualified.

The former problem is already too bad for people expecting multihomed
environment.

Moreover, I'm afraid you underestimate the latter scalability problem.

To move on, we must estimate the seriousness of lack of scalability
and, if it is not so bad, develop proper address assignment policy,
both of which take time, which disqualify your proposal.

It's still better than singlehoming.

It doesn't, as the evaluation can be performed while the solution is
being used. As there is a built in "you have to renumber at some point"
guarantee, whenever problems come up they can be fixed.

But if you feel that geographic aggregation is superior to such a stop
gap solution, I'm not going to argue.

It is a variation of singlehoming.

That kind of guarantee never works.

I see no point discussing on stop gap solutions.

This is starting to be off-topic and I think we should move this to a 
more appropriate list like LIR-WG for RIPE.

I know the policies of the different regions fairly well.

	All,


A number of comments have been made on the list recently (well, over
a long time) on what is needed to get this working group going. As the
new and naive co-chair, I have discussed this with Sean. We have
agreed that there are a number of steps we need to take to move
forward and start producing results.

To achive some of these will most likely require us to change at
least parts of the charter, and definetly the milestones.

The things that comes to mind are

 From a procedure perspective we need to have a clear problem
statement document; we need to havve the requirements document
updated; we need to agree on a road-map to a solution (but for now
just agreeing on the outline should do it) and we need to evaluate
what solutions are to be considered as working group documents.

For the first steps we are looking for volunteers for the problem
statement (I guess one of us could do it as well), for the
requirements document I think that at least Joe would be willing to
update it.

For the road-map there is my document, and there have been some ideas
from Christian (but I forget what mailiglist he posted it to). I
would also like to see other proposals.

As for solution documents, me and Sean would like to encourage people
to sumbit drafts on solutions, protocols, etc. Our thoughts are to
hold a WG meeting (I promise. I buy the beer if we don't) in Vienna
to go through all the above documents, disucuss them, and agree which
should be adopted as WG documents.

Last, we will try and have a beer BOF tomorrow at 17.30-19.30. If you
feel you want to give input on the way forward, discuss solutoins, or
just make fun of me not knowing how my mail client work, see you in
the bar! I will also be at the ipv6mh meeting tonight.

Best regards,

- kurtis -

As I'm returning to Japan tonight (as scheduled long before),
I just leave a comment.

Instead of wasting time on a requirement draft again, how about
having several design teams to work on their own proposals
and let them apeal to the WG? Each team can have their own
requirements.

Note that it is an approach used to develop IPv6.

That is part of what I tried to say. So I agree :-) I do want us to get 
solutions that can be discussed! Send text! :)

The idea is that we discuss and evaluate the solutions in Vienna.

To me this is a no brainer because I can't see how there
can exist a scalable approach to multihoming that doesn't
separate identifiers and locators.

At some level one could argue that host multi-addressing is scalable
(at the expense of moving complexity to the hosts and applications).but
my concern is that host multi-addressing will more or less have
the hosts track with source/destination combinations (which approximate
routing paths at some rough level) work vs. doesn't.
To get fast failover this essentially turns into doing end-to-end "hello"
traffic instead of relying on the local hello traffic performed by the routing
protocols. So I think there are severe limitations in making this scale.
(And trying to aggregate this end-to-end "hello" traffic will just
cause a reinvention of routing.)

From the email traffic I'm guessing there is a significant fraction of the
folks on this list that think that identifier/locator separation is necessary
for the long-term solution.
There seems to be more disagreement about possible shorter term steps.

But I could be misreading things...

There is one big fat advantage to having this in the hosts: those
already track the end-to-end status of sessions.

Doing it in middleboxes is more complex, but it should be doable without
spending too much bandwidth on reachability tests: a middlebox typically
communicates with many other middleboxes (or hosts) and many of these
sessions share a significant amount of infrastructure. So rather than do
a reachability check for each session every 90 seconds (yes, this is
very long but it's the same as the BGP hold time listed in RFC 1771 and
Cisco even uses 180 seconds by default) the middlebox can simply do a
reachability check for say 1/300th of all sessions each second. That
means each sessions will be checked every 5 minutes. But as checks start
to fail, their number is increased, starting with ones that fall inside
the same 32. The effect is that the closer the failure is to the
middlebox, the faster it will be detected. Only when the path between
two middleboxes shares no infrastructure with other paths, and this
non-shared infrastructure fails, it may be necessary to wait the full
300 seconds.

Retransmitting due to mail bounce... apologies if it's a 
duplicate.

|    Erik,
|    
|    |    To me this is a no brainer because I can't see how there
|    |    can exist a scalable approach to multihoming that doesn't
|    |    separate identifiers and locators.
|    
|    
|    Excellent, welcome to the club.
|    
|       =20
|    |    At some level one could argue that host multi-addressing=20
|    |    is scalable
|    |    (at the expense of moving complexity to the hosts and=20
|    |    applications).but
|    |    my concern is that host multi-addressing will more or 
|    less have
|    |    the hosts track with source/destination combinations=20
|    |    (which approximate
|    |    routing paths at some rough level) work vs. doesn't.
|    
|    
|    Yes, that's going to happen.
|    
|    
|    |    To get fast failover this essentially turns into doing=20
|    |    end-to-end "hello"
|    |    traffic instead of relying on the local hello traffic=20

|    |    (And trying to aggregate this end-to-end "hello"

|    
|    
|    As Iljitsch seemed to hint at, there is no need to add protocol to

|    I don't know of a requirement that asks us to react faster

|    configurable.


Yes, but the cache time is an upper bound on the validity of the
entries.
What I'm suggesting is that there needs to be some reasonable
constraints
on the MINIMUM cache period that you can specify.  Currently I believe
that's 1s.  Seems a tad fast.

And look what a wonderful result that was!

I'd seriously like to suggest that we NOT run down the proposal
path.  Again, all that does is lock people in on their personal
approach.  Folks dig in their heels and it comes to bloodshed.

I would rather that we take the approach that this is a collaborative
effort and address the issues and resolve them.  Start with a 
top level architecture and work down.  Yes, this is harder
on the chairs, but it needs to be done this way to ensure closure
without bloodshed.

Catching up on old mail...

|    
|    My assumption is those locations are minimal.  Forward to 
|    them is fast
|    lookup and high order bits.  Failover is not a function IMO of any
|    protocol but implementation.  But the protocol should have features
|    within it to permit failover.  


A few locations implies that they are high bandwidth because they
are interconnects.  I'm very hopeful that we don't need a separate
protocol to implement failover.

That is true, But it does bring up the issue of the status of the 
requirements document. From what I know it has been ready to be shipped 
to the IESG for last-call for quite some time. Some people have 
privately expressed to me that they see little point in moving this 
forward. I want to disagree, as I do think that this documents provides 
a good base-line and a tool for us as chairs to keep people focused on 
what we need to achieve. That said, I do not think that "requirements" 
are the right word as we will have different requirements at different 
times (and I know that people disagrees to this statement).

I have discussed this with Joe and if I have understood him correctly 
he is for updating the document to better reflect this as 
considerations for potential multihoming solutions. I suggest that we 
hold off discussions on this until we have a updated document and then 
see where to take it from there.


...and yes, I do realize that this creates problems with the charter 
and the milestones, but that is the least of my worries at the moment 
:-). We need to fix that anyway.

Erik's comment above let me back to an observation that
I made some time ago, but which I failed to write up
before this.

It looks like that if we go for the locator/identifier
separation and multi-addressing, we go for an architecture
where we combine today's hop-by-hop routing with some limited
source routing.  The routers continue to do hop-by-hop
routing on addresses, just as today.  However, either the
hosts or some middleboxes start doing what is effectively
some kind of limited source routing:  based on the identifier
they select the best destination/source address pair from
a number of possibilities.  In that way they affect the
route that the packet takes, i.e., perform source routing.

To perform high quality source routing there should be
some idea of the topology.  That idea does not need to be
detailed; often simple RTT estimates might be enough.
But something is needed.  I think Christian's slides
contained a fairly good summary of this.

I don't know if this observation is of any value.
I just wanted to post it in the case that it might
help people in their thinking.

I was, however designed to prevent DoS attacks, imposing minimal

Again, i think that the solution would be much more valuable if
connections could survive much longer. I have a proposal to extend
MAX_RR_BINDING_LIFETIME, but it is a bit long to include it in here. If
you would like to consider it, i can send it to you. (i would appreciate
it very much)

Good point (again)

I am running out of solutions here :-)
I can think of the following options for this, but i am not sure i like
anyone of them.

First option: (i think this would be the most elegant, but i think its
time has passed) use a site local anycast address
So you can compose the site exit router anycast address by appending the
prefix assigned to the link to the site local prefix. I like this, but
the problem is that there may be no more site locals for connected
sites. I guess i should wait and see the outcome of the site local
debate.

Second option: use the above configuration and configure R3 as a ND
proxy. I do not like this much because it imposes additional
configuration in all the routers (it is better than configuring all the
hosts, though)

Third option: (nasty hack) use the above configuration but change the
site exit router anycast format by changing the less significant bit of
the directly attached subnet. This would make that the anycast address
is not on-link, so that it has to be routed through a router. 

Opinions?

I agree middleboxes aren't desirable. On the other hand, I doubt very
many people will applaud a clean architecture if that means they have to
upgrade large numbers of individual hosts rather than a few middleboxes.
And it's not just deployment; implementing policies on individual hosts
is much harder than doing it on middleboxes or border routers.

Folks,

Let's please understand that these are not mutually exclusive.  We can
have an architecture that does not require middleboxes and at the same
time does not exclude them.

I'm with Kurt here. We need this document on record, and if
people are worried by the R-word, then don't call them requirements.

Call them desirable properties, and lose the RFC 2119 language.
Let's not get hung up on our own process hooks.

Agreed. No question. But with 350 routes I am more worried over the

I don't question that. What makes me wonder is how many home users will 
actually want/need multihoming? How many SOHO will? How many 
enterprises?

I tend to agree with you here. Which is why I have always said that it 
only has potential to do this. Just as we scaled back the routing table 
growth a few years ago (I know it was more the .com hysteria 
collapsing) with filters, we have the potential do to similar things 
here.

Well, I think we need to move in steps for a number of reasons, 
urgency, implementation lead times, and last to get consensus. This 
said, I think that we need to always keep in mind how we will get from 
A to B, and eventually to C.

But that is what I hope will be the first issue we could get agreement 
here on.

I am sitting over in the right hand corner when you walk in from the

For the session after the plenary, I will be at the bar disk (or around 
there) after the plenary. I am wearing a black fleece and looking 
confused. Just so that it is easier to find me.

Kurt,

|    
|    Agreed. No question. But with 350 routes I am more worried 
|    over the 
|    lack of routes....


Once upon a time, not so long ago, the entire IPv4 Internet was only
1000
routes.  Since then, I've been fighting exponential growth.  Be careful
what you wish for.

|    
|    I don't question that. What makes me wonder is how many 
|    home users will 
|    actually want/need multihoming? How many SOHO will? How many 
|    enterprises?


Historically, about 10% of all Internet sites are multi-homed.  I 
see no reason for this not to continue.  As to homes, I can tell
you that my provider is certainly not so reliable that I am happy
being singly-homed.  And I'm not alone, I know of many others
with similar situations.

    
|    > If you subscribe to the view that businesses find the Web
|    > interface to be important, then it stands to reason that the
|    > interest in multihoming would continue to grow.
|    
|    Agreed, the question is how fast?


Faster than we can possibly accommodate.  Our job is to provide the
technical leadership and be there with an architecture BEFORE the 
masses show up.  Because by then, it's too late.

  
|    Well, I think we need to move in steps for a number of reasons, 
|    urgency, implementation lead times, and last to get 
|    consensus. This 
|    said, I think that we need to always keep in mind how we 
|    will get from 
|    A to B, and eventually to C.
|    
|    But that is what I hope will be the first issue we could 
|    get agreement 
|    here on.


I agree that we need all of those things.  However, I don't believe
that we're in an undue rush to move forward.  Providing an interim
solution is simply going to turn that interim into a final solution,
and we will regret it.

Tony

Hi,

I think we can do this testing easily in several part of the Euro6IX network. So, how we start ?

Kurtis,

David and I wrote up a "simple dual homing" proposal, based on previous drafts and private conversations. This may be one of several
ways of going forward in multi6.

Christian,

First, I don't believe that 3.5 is a real requirement.  It is
not a problem that is solved today in any technology short of
full blown traffic engineering.  While I agree that this would
be valuable, I don't see how this really cuts it as a requirement.

Of your other requirements, it would seem that they would all
be addressed as long as:

	1) routers which don't have a working exit don't advertise
         default
	2) hosts rotate their source (and destination) addresses
	   among the possible set

Further, I would argue that your requirement for 3.4 isn't strong
enough.  That the connection should NOT break.

Comments?

Tony

The below is exactly what I describe in the 
draft-kurtis-longprefix-multihoming-00.txt draft. I agree that 
declaring it BCP is probably better than propose it as a standard. It 
still have the problems that Tony points out though.

  A reverse lookup can provide it.

Right. However, to be honest, DNS servers are middleboxes.

But, they are not intelligent but dumb middleboxes.

Load concentration, caused by the violation of the e2e principle,
is taken care of by light weight protocol. Never say X.500.

Lack of reliablity, caused by the violation of the e2e principle,
is taken care of by multiple servers.

DNS servers are necessary evil that the point is not to
introduce yet another evil

But, we need DNS.

With IPv6 with 16 bytes of an address, we are a lot more motivated to
favour domain names over raw address than with IPv4.

With multiple addresses (or locators), we are motiveted even more.

In general, if we want to introduce structure unrelated to the
network topology, we have similar problem as DNS.

issue 3.1 : egress filtering:

I would think that selecting the destination address  based on the source
address is a bit strange...
Transport protocols(SCTP in particular) selects a destination address, the
IP layer selects an outgoing interface, thus in order to have a msg with the
correct source address to get through egress filtering, the msg should
contain the IP address of the outgoing interface as this is the address the
interface got assigned by the provider upstream(and the provider would let
its own sourceaddresses/prefixes through, wouldn't it..??..)

issue 3.2:
some form of heatbeating per destination(as in SCTP) should do the trick...
no problem there

issue 3.3:
looks the same from the perspective of the transport layer.. use same
solutions as in 3.2
solve one, get a extra free with...

issue 3.4:
changeover to a active connection/path.. some transport protocols can do
that also.. no problem..

issue 3.5:
actually the only guy that could do optimisations is the endpoint itself: it
has the congestion information, it could know the load distribution between
the different paths/connections if she is smart enough.. 

basically the smart solution should not pose any problems.. atn least it
hasn't give us(=SCTP implementations) any problems up till now. And multiple
TCP connections(or something in that direction) would deliver the same
stuff...

yours sincerly,

I agree that exit selection (3.5) is more of a "nice to have" -- the real requirement is, try to achieve some load sharing so we do not get a gross misuse of the resource.
 
The reason for "should not break" rather than "must not break" is that in a similar set up today (e.g. main connection backed up by a DSL line), turning on backup actually breaks connections. Also, I am not confident that we can make sure that no connection will ever break, so "must" may well be slightly out of the reach of engineering.
 
By the way, your general observation is correct: David an I believe that most of the solution is actually fairly easy to engineer.

Christian, 

First, I don't believe that 3.5 is a real requirement.  It is 
not a problem that is solved today in any technology short of 
full blown traffic engineering.  While I agree that this would 
be valuable, I don't see how this really cuts it as a requirement. 

Of your other requirements, it would seem that they would all 
be addressed as long as: 

        1) routers which don't have a working exit don't advertise 
         default 
        2) hosts rotate their source (and destination) addresses 
           among the possible set 

Further, I would argue that your requirement for 3.4 isn't strong 
enough.  That the connection should NOT break. 

Comments? 

Tony

Perfectly reasonable.

I should point out that turning up an additional link today
breaks connections because the host isn't capable of trying
a different address.  You could, in theory, write a non-standard
TCP that had the right host behavior, even with IPv4 today.  But
it doesn't exist, AFAIK.

Now, does this test actually distinguish anything between any of
the proposals that have been discussed?

Tony

The idea is to build  to split the problem in pieces: how to solve ingress filtering, how to solve connection maintenance, etc., and then to agree on at least one good solution. Good = easy to deploy, minimal development, etc.

1) is out of question, 2) seems undesirable but acceptable, 3) too hacky.

A possibly valid approach could be advertising the addresses or portions
of significant information thereof (e.g. prefix length and have a reserved
anycast address) in route advertisements.

But I don't really like this approach either.

A discovery approach would also be possible: e.g. send traceroutes using
all the source addresses and watch out for responses (assuming there is
some special "site exit router discovery" ICMP message).

Although I generally tend to agree with your view, I do think that we 
need let everyone present their opinions and evaluate them. You and me 
have a certain view of where to go, maybe that is where we will end up 
eventually (of-course I hope so), but in order to start working on one 
single solution we need to have a consensus saying that is where we 
want to go. And we wont get there unless we have looked at the 
alternatives thoroughly.

I have no problem with loading the chairs (I guess Sean will give me a 
hard time for this...:) ) if that brings us forward, and I think you 
are right, but I think we need to do some other steps first.

I am well aware of this fact and I have always said that this is not 
the answer for any longer term. It's just that with only 350 routes 
people are already announcing much longer prefixes and are successful 
in suing them. This is just copy the routing operational practices from 
ISPs today.

I am sure there are. But price is still a factor that you need to

Agreed, still we need to try and guess when that will be. Mostly 
because that will set the agenda. I would be interested in seeing what 
the trend curves for the IPv6 routing table looks like from the people 
monitoring these. But I am not sure if Geoff Huston or Gert During for 
example are on this list.

Maybe. But coming to that conclusion and consensus is also an

There are not enough significant data points to do any sort of trend 
analysis at this point in time.  I agree with Tony -- as a person who 
personally still gets criticized for the fact that China doesn't have 
as much address space as MIT, we will regret not addressing the 
multi-homing (and related) issues now, before "historical mistakes" 
become permanent.

Further, if we address the multi-homing (and related) issues, there 
will be a clear and obvious justification for IPv6 deployment which has 
not, to date, been made.

|    Agreed, still we need to try and guess when that will be. Mostly 
|    because that will set the agenda. I would be interested in 
|    seeing what 
|    the trend curves for the IPv6 routing table looks like 
|    from the people 
|    monitoring these. But I am not sure if Geoff Huston or 
|    Gert During for 
|    example are on this list.


We are currently trying to hold people off from deploying v6 because
this issue is not closed.  If it was closed, if v6 really was a 
better architecture, if things actually worked, then we would have
been done a few years ago.  Consider: Windows has already adopted it,
most of the routers are well along the way.  All it takes is us
(the IETF community) telling folks that it's ready.  

So please don't set the schedule based on when people WILL show up.
If we wait for that point, then events will have overtaken us, we
will have lost control of deployment and the same old routing 
architecture will be too solidly ingrained for people to think
about moving.  We are already getting quite a bit of backpressure
on not changing anything related to v6 already.  This can only 
grow over time.

 
|    Maybe. But coming to that conclusion and consensus is also an 
|    achievement we have yet to make.


That's not something that we need to come to consensus on.  We 
need consensus on how we move forward.  Not how and where all of
the traps are.

What's wrong with bloodshed?

Bloodshed on requirement draft as observed in this WG has been wrong,
of course.

But, bloodshed on fully implemented solutions are the best way
to develop good protocols.

Remember the bloodshed between the Internet and the OSI protocol suits.

As there was some discussions in Atlanta on wether longer prefixes is 
actually in use today. This is just the first page of sh ipv6 route on 
one of my home routers :

It appears as if there are number of prefix lengths being in use.

	I'll try to paraphrase tli's view.

	Full and open discussion is necessary and helpful.  However, having
such discussion does not imply that the WG Chairs should create 
something
resembling a "horse race" to create competing proposals that will then
"fight it out".

	An alternative approach, one (IMHO) much more likely to be successful
in creating a co-operative WG environment, is to have an open discussion
that is thoughtfully structured, top down.  For example, the initial 
phase
of the discussion probably should be about the high-level technical 
issues
being addressed and possible architectural approaches to those issues.  
Once
rough consensus (smooth consensus not being a customary IETF 
requirement)
is achieved on the high-level issues and on the architectural approach,
the discussion could then move on to a next phase with a few high-level
engineering details being sorted out.  Once those are sorted out, an
additional level of detail could be addressed.  Only at the end would 
the
discussion delve into the nitty gritty implementation details.  This 
way,
the chairs would create a path forward that encourages competition 
rather
than cooperation.  And any good idea could be considered by the whole
group.

	By contrast, asking folks to create full-fledged proposals right
now does the opposite -- encouraging competition and confrontation,
rather than cooperation.

	Please consider taking the cooperative path forward.

No.  Setting out a (fairly typical) process and trying to convince the
volunteers here to come to consensus on the first item was a
nearly-complete failure, so I am watching to see if a consensus
develops over other approaches.

I have to say that at least three stark contrasts -- that advanced by
tli/rja suggesting a new process, that advanced by Christian Huitema
(and apparently attractive to you) suggesting a parallelization of 
labour,
and that advanced by Ohta-san, suggesting all-out warfare, each
have their alluring qualities (and some drawbacks), as well as 
considerable
history within other parts of the IETF.

There is also an unstated but discussed-in-the-background
approach of developing consensus over a document stating that:
	
	- scalable site-multihoming IS in the critical path of deployment
	- the problem is not currently well-understood within the IETF
	- there are many ideas about the problem, and about its solution

Who's "we" please? There's a fair number of people who certainly

Some of us who aren't fans of the current routing architecture.
Not all of them are IETF folks and I'm certainly not in a position
where I can claim to speak for them.

Well, I haven't said that we should deploy or standardize multiple 
solutions necessarily.

I am not convinced that comes out of the multi6 problem alone.

Ok, I think I have misunderstood you, or the other way around. I am not 
suggesting that we draft full blown solutions for each alternative. I 
think we need to have them all up for review and that we need to have 
enough meat on the bones to be able to make a judgment. Exactly what 
those are is still to be decided but should somehow me in the 
milestones IMO.

My personal view is (not discussed with my co-chair or the ADs in any 
greater length yet) that we need to a) Get the 'requirements' document 
shipped, B) We need to determine what solutions categories we want to 
look at c) We need to determine to what level of detail we want these 
solutions worked out d) We need to get the results of b) and c) into 
the WG charter and update the dates of the milestones e) we need to 
agree on what solution is to be worked out in more detailed

In terms of time-line this very much depends on how fast we can do b) 
and c). One scenario is that we work on b) and c) in parallel to c) and 
then discuss all of these in Vienna. That will be a very long WG 
session though...

I have for a quite long time been saying that IPv6 currently does not 
give any advantage to IPv4 except longer addresses. Now, there is 
enough room for discussion for it's own mailing list so I guess that is 
somewhat off-topic.

Agreed. The schedule have to be independent of when people will show up.

I think you are describing what I said in the mail to Tony.

The problem as I see it at the moment is that there currently is no 
solution that is on the table and there is no "magic dust" (expression 
stolen). We need to start with realizing that we are at scratch (I know 
some people disagree). However, I also think that there currently are 
to many views on what the architecture should be based on. In order to 
better understand this, I think we need to look at the various 
architectural proposals made. This needs to be made as a working group, 
and then from there we need to work together on one solution.

I agree on this observation, but note that I would like to combine the

I think that a document like to above would be useful, but I do not see 
what the road after this would be. I agree with the statements above, 
and indirectly this to me implies that we have failed with the design 
of IPv6. Now in a way that might be a reasonable statement depending on 
your needs, but at the same time it does little to help us move forward.

And I think we therefor need this discussion on where we want to move. 
Maybe you are right and we will come to the conclusion above. As I said 
before, I would consider reaching consensus on failure and that there 
is no way forward an achievement as well. But I am just a bit to 
stubborn to give up just yet.

It was certainly not apparent that your note to tli contained anything
like the proposal I outlined above.  Thanks for the clarification.

s/architectural proposals/architectural approaches/

Again, "proposals" sounds like one is trying to foster competition,
rather than cooperation.

And while opinions will vary about what constitutes "architecture",
maybe we all agree that architecture is extremely high-level,
hence devoid of most/all implementation details.

The only architectural approach that I've seen on this list in recent
months is the notion of deprecating the concept of an "address",
in favour of using "locator" and "identifier" for the separate purposes
of routing and identity.  Maybe I've overlooked something ?

If there is another architectural approach in the wings, maybe someone
would be kind enough to summarise that alternate approach to the list ?

Kurt,

Well that would not be the same as what tli/rja have proposed.
Earlier today you claimed to agree with the process approach
proposed by tli/rja.  Now you say you want something different,
though it is unclear (to me at least) what you want to do differently.

I'm fairly confused by your various notes of the past few days.

Maybe you could start over again and outline what process approach
that you are proposing that the WG follow ?

I think that everything from smd, except the last bullet, is pretty
widely agreed upon here and would be worth documenting.

The last bullet ("we tried and failed") is too pessimistic for my
own view right now, hence the desire to try a top-down cooperative
approach (starting with finding an agreeable architectural approach).

I'd also like to see some requirements document get sorted out and
published, so that we understand what issues we are trying to address.
One possible way to sort it out would be for the document editor to hold
an organised on-list document review section by section, with several 
days
to discuss the current contents of each section.  Other approaches
might also work to sort through such a document.

Can't disagree with that as a strategy. However, the 8+8 experience
was that you have to go a long way into the details to find out if
a solution is really useable. So it will be hard to avoid a detailed
analysis of each possible proposal.

Is this a broken filter, or needed de-aggregation? I would expect the
former.     Has there been any official move away from 2772 for production
space?

I think that this is what I would like to work out. A common 
understanding of what exactly want to put on the table to start with. 
What to call it, and how much details.

ACK. I support no statement to hold of IPv6 deployment.  It is in
process accept that.  And the IETF again does not state or have anything
to say about deployment of any protocol.  Not our job here.

Ran,

I've seen a number of other proposals, but at the architectural
level, they seem to all boil down to using tunneling to provide
virtual topology that would match the addressing.

While this certainly works and I'm a big fan of tunneling for
some reasons, I'm concerned about an architecture that makes
multi-homing a second class citizen.  It seems to me that
if we can do it right the first time, we should.

I also would strongly prefer a solution that makes
multi-homing a native/first-class property of IPv6.

Does anyone else have any other architectural approaches

Agreed, with one proviso: it is reasonable here to identify the present
lack of scalable site multihoming as an obstacle to deployment,
and to suggest ways in which this obstacle may be met and
dealt with.

> Not our job here.

Our job is twofold: firstly, try to arrive at consensus over a
good approach to scalable site multihoming that includes
the current & former network operators participating in the WG,
and secondly, to take advantage of the availability of
willing operational experience and clue to avoid some of
the brick walls we have hit (or approached at high speed) with IPv4,
like this unpleasant period in late 1995:

http://groups.google.com/ 
groups?selm=DHqupL.ALC%40gpu.utcc.utoronto.ca&oe=UTF-8&output=gplain

Admittedly we learned quite a bit about how to build and operate
fast routers from this sort of thing, but hitting the wall
operationally is far more costly today than it was when
the Internet was much smaller.  I believe the market
as a whole will choose to avoid serious scalability problems
that are already known, since there are more than enough
that are not known yet.

Whether this happens by engineering IPv6 in directions different
from -- but informed by -- IPv4, or by non-deployment, possibly will be
influenced somewhat by  cooperation here and between
multi6 and the Internet Area.

    > details to find out if a solution is really useable.

No. It was instantly clear to people who are used to thinking at an
architectural level that the 8+8 approach (as outlined by Mo) would do what
he wanted, but had two areas of concern:

- how to protect the binding between location and address
- for "full-on" 8+8 (as originally posited by Mo), where/how the RG was
added/modified

Solutions to the first problem were instantly obvious (either don't allow a
change in the binding for the duration of a connection, or crptographically
secure it). I will concede that solutions to the second problem weren't as
obvious, and I'm not sure this was ever looked at thoroughly.

Later discussion served to illuminate these points a bit (although not in
the case of the famed analysis I-D, which was severely flawed), but not in
any significant way.


There were also other areas of what I will call "interest", which are to
say areas where 8+8 offered the *potential* of improved functionality (over
the baseline IPv4/v6 architecture), provided appropriate mechanisms could
be developed.

An example would be using 8+8 as part of a mobility solution - you still
have to deal with all the tricky bits like "what happens if you want to
contact a mobile host and the current identity/location binding you have
for it is not current".

It's only when you look at the mechanisms needed to handle that case
(mechanisms which will depend on how you handle other things) that you can
decide whether that that case is not worth solving - i.e. that the
mechanism is too complex/expensive compared to the cost of just ignoring
that case.

It should be self-obvious that only when you have detailed mechanisms in
hand can you evaluate whether the mechanisms used to handle particular
cases are cost-effective.

Perhaps this is more what you were thinking of in your comments above?

Ahem. Separating "location" and "identification" is an architectural
approach to dealing with the fact that the address of the entity at the
other end may change 'frequently'. It's *not* an architectural approach to
handling multi-homing in a scalable way.


The only architectural approach to scalable multi-homing that seems to have
much interest is using multiple addresses (i.e. overlapping topology naming
abstractions), and switching among them as needed.

I have in the past mentioned a number of other approaches, e.g.:

- DDC's "route stubs"
- the equivalent in MD-systems (let's call them "map stubs")
- highly dynamic abstraction boundaries with a deep hierarchy

but they all involve i) big changes to the routing architecture, and ii) for
the third, at least, frequent changes in address (in other words, you need the
I/L split there too).

Overlapping naming abstractions - which we can do with the existing routing
architecture - seems to be the only choice anyone has expressed interest in.

Agree. But I doubt that's going to happen without some serious changes
to different parts of the protocol stack. Is that something we're
comfortable with?

3: remove addresses from all places in the protocol stack above the IP
   layer. If higher layers are unaware of addresses and the addresses
   follow the topology, IP can route around failures by changing
   addresses.

(First of all I am trying to get a discussion going so I have been a 
bit vague to get people to come forward...)

So, I agree with Tli/Rja that we do not want a race with multiple 
full-blown solutions. I do agree with Christian that we need to 
evaluate the solution spaces somehow. Now, what I think we need to do 
is to find the middle way by a) defining the solution space, which I 
think is more or less done b) Define the depth of the descriptions of 
each solution we need. Brian Carpenter have a point in that we want to 
have make sure they at least have enough content to prevent a long 
fight over that later on.  This depth would be defined by a number of 
milestones per architectural approach.

Does this make sense?

See above. That is where I want us to move right now.

After discussing with Joe Abley in SF, he will resubmit the document 
with changed normative references and title, and let's see if we then 
can get consensus for that.

Well, there is also Christians multiple address solution and on other 
lists there have been suggestions on using mobility based solutions.

Well, I want to give people a few days to present their solutions 
(there are also a few personal drafts submitted to the IETF) or 'ask' 
to have them reviewed. Then we need to start to move on.

But in principal the division of solution space could be

- multiaddress
- Mobility based
- Location/Identifier separation
- Based on today (basically improved routing, but I haven't seen any 
real proposals on this).

No, but I expect that people are starting to make up the lack of 
official support for multihoming. Just as with RIR allocation boundary 
filtering in IPv4. But that is just me guessing.

Does "Mobility-based" mean MIPv6 or something very similar ?

I would say that MIPv6 is an instance of Locator/Identifier
separation.  I'd guess there are lots of potential instances
of any given approach.  I was trying to take a much higher
altitude perspective on the potential approaches that are
fundamentally different from each other, then work top down.

I'm not sure what "based on today" means.  So if someone
does have a proposal for this, a high-level outline would
be pleasant.

Sean,

Agree with all except question.

The Internet Area does not influence deployment either?  The IETF does
not influence deployment was my statement.

Wearing my IP stack product developer hat.  Errrrr maybe in the year
2050 if we start now.  The entire stack on end systems and routing code
on embedded systems I have worked with have addresses not only embedded
but permeated through all layers.  I see the vision but don't have to be
real here?

Yes, we have to be real at some point but not just yet. First we have to
determine if 3. has merit.

And I have reason to believe transition won't be as hard as it may seem
at first glance.

Indeed.  If, in fact, we can convert upper layers to deal
with just the identifiers, we would be very close to done.  ;-)

I am not so sure about that. I would say that in MIP identifier and
locators are not separated. I mean, a given address can work both as a
locator and as an identifier, depending on the situation. Perhaps, I
would say that the identifier role and the locator role are separated.
Please, note that this is not related to the fact that locator space and
address space are the same (IP addresses) but that sometimes a given
address is used as a locator and other times as an identifier.
This is true also when considering transport layer solution such as the
modifications to TCP to support multiple addresses per connection.
This is different from the LIN6 case, where there is a specific type of
addresses reserved to serve as identifiers, in which case identifiers
and locators are clearly separated.

Thanks, marcelo

Marcelo,

	As the Subject: line of the thread indicates, my comment
was from a high-level architectural perspective.  Architecturally,
MIPv6 separates the locators from the identifiers.

	Sure the implementation details might vary, but I'm
not interested (right now) in any implementation details.
I'm only trying to sort out the *architectural* or
highest-level differences between different approaches,
for now.

	If/after there is convergence on an architecture, then
would be a better time (IMHO), to sort through implementation
details.

Hi Ran,

I am wondering if these two approaches are the same or not:

- The first case is where there is clear separation between locators and
identifiers. In this case, a binding between an identifier and one more 
locators is needed. 
- The other case is where multiple addresses are used for reaching the
other end. I am not sure that you need an identifier, all you need to
know is that there is a set of possible locators for reaching the other
end of this communication. (Perhaps the identifier is the set of
locators?)

Do you think that there is a difference between this two approaches?

Thanks, marcelo

Noel, I agree with what you say about the facts, but I think
it did amount to a technical "deep dive". Unfortunately, we never
resurfaced.

A binding is *always* needed between any identifier and its set of
locators, even when the identifier happens to be the permanent
home address (using MIPv6 as an example) and the other addresses
are the locators.  The *nature* of that binding changes depending
on implementation details, but the need for some binding does
not change.

If one considers MIPv6, there is only one IPv6 address that is
used for the TCP session state.  The address used in that way
is functionally an identifier.  The other addresses (i.e.
those not in the TCP session state) are functionally locators.

> Do you think that there is a difference between this two approaches?

At a high-level, no.  In gory implementation details,
of course yes.

As noted before, my goal (and I suspect tli's goal) pro tempore
is to discuss the high-level aspects only.  If/when/after some
consensus emerges at that level, it would then make sense
to dig one level deeper.  IMHO, it would not make sense
to dig deeply prematurely -- for fear that we'd be unable
to see the forest because of focus on individual trees.

Ran

We've been preaching against exposing addresses above the transport
layer since RFC 1900 (dated 1996) at least. Little has changed in the 
real world.

Not sure I understand that statement.

As far as I can tell, most people/applications use names rather than 
addresses most of the time. The trouble is that protocols such as TCP 
use the addresses in the IP header in their processing. If we make 
these protocols look at something else (the FQDN, an address that's not 
in the IP header, ...) we are free to change addresses at any time 
without breaking sessions.

> Not sure I understand that statement.

Changing all references to addresses everywhere except in the IP layer 
is a huge undertaking. However, I think multihoming benefits can be 
achieved before this process has been completed.

Well, a number of people have suggested to work on
addresses.  The various PI schemes may be unworkable
given the current hierarchical addressing and routing
structure; I don't know.  But I think that there
might be some benefits to be found if we took a deeper
look at the interplay between addressing and routing.

I am definitely not an expert in the area, but I have
heard people speaking about clustering based addressing
etc. instead of hierarchically assigned addresses.
Assigning the addresses somewhat dynamically based on
the real network topology, perhaps combined with an
identity/location separation, may be something worth
considering in the long run.

But that is probably too far fetched for this WG.

No one uses FQDN's above IP till one gets to the Application layer.  Why
do you say this?

Also we need a solution that does not assume this at all.  Doing this
would at best be nice to have long term.

THere is also no way to enforce it.

The way I see it, applications are evolving to use IP addresses more,
not less. There are many reasons, such as the flakiness of the DNS
resolution process, but there are also many applications (or transports)
that actually want to reason over IP addresses in an attempt to control
or organize network usage. In a multi-homing scenario, applications are
likely to treat the address on the GPRS interface different from the
Wifi or the Ethernet interface; they also will want to know whether they
need to open the firewall to reach a specific address, etc.

Why not?

So there we have our long term goal. If we can get there by using 16 
byte values that look enough like IPv6 addresses to fool existing 
implementations for a while but label them "identifier - not to be used 
in routing" I don't have a problem with that.

Hmmm thought you did.  I misunderstood then.  My apologies then.

WHen I say assume let me clarify.  By "assume" I mean, solution we end
up with won't work if all *sockaddr_DL references to Network Byte Order
addresses MUST become references to *char_foo_identifier strings.  I
will assume you know the ramfications to the stack above IP "virtual"
layer in the IP stack and then to what we often call "user" space where
the applications reside.  That is a non-starter.

Yep that is what I was thinking architecturally.  But have not gone down
the affect to code yet.

That being said I believe Christian's point was quite valid.

Yes, we need both a very long transition period during which certain 
parts can handle the new paradigm while others can't and first rate 
backward compatibility.

There are lots of issues to consider before that.

> That being said I believe Christian's point was quite valid.

I'm not convinced by his example. Yes, applications will want to know 
something about the connectivity properties in order to adapt their 
behavior. But I don't see how access to the IP addresses is going to do 
that. An application can't tell if 3ffe:2500:310:1:203:93ff:fec5:2d28 
is an address used on a low-bandwidth, high-delay GPRS link or a 
high-bandwidth, low-delay fast ethernet link. The application needs to 
know which interface is going to be used, the address is immaterial. If 
the IP layer can move a session from one interface to another some 
additional glue is needed to provide this information on an ongoing 
basis.

However, there is another reason why people work around the DNS that I 
think may be a bigger problem: while the domain name system isn't open 
to trivial fakery like some other protocols (SMTP...) its security 
isn't stellar either.

The trouble with hardcoding addresses in configuration files is that 
invariably the addresses change and invariably it is next to impossible 
to find all the places they're stored beforehand. What we need here is 
something that isn't as fixed as a configuration file, but also isn't 
as ephemeral as information learned from the DNS.

Hi ho,

inspired by the 'dual homing experiment' document of Christian Huitema, 
we (JOINers) thought about a solution to offer robustness for a site that 
is multihomed and multiaddressed and that we like to discuss here. 
Exteral connectivity of such a site is affected by failures of

- the sites border router
- the sites uplink
- the ISPs infrastructure (spec. the router with the link to the customer)
- the ISPs global border router
- the ISPs global uplink

To recover from such a failure in the fist three cases, the site could
communicate with the ISP a set of possible prefixes and connectivity could
get reestablished via a tunnel technology. We already thought about this,
but the solution is quite complex to explain it in short. It is not
discussed here.

The approach I try to explain here is a solution for the last two cases,
where there the ISP is no longer reachable and a tunneled solution is not
possible.


First, we consider a failure a seldom and abnormal event. Only if a direct
connect fails, the network (or the ISP) has to take some failover action.
This means that - if you think of the size of the global routing table - 
in default behaviour the table is small (only /32 prefixes) and only in 
case of a failure a more specific prefix (/48 or shorter) is neccessary.

                     +----------------------------+
                     |  'Global Internet'/'DFZ'   |
                     +--+-----------------------+-+
                        |                       |
                        |                       |
            +-----------+--+                 +--+-----------+
            |    ISP A     |                 |     ISP B    |
            | Prefix PA/32 |                 | Prefix PB/32 |
            +-----------+--+                 +--+-----------+
                        |                       |
                        |                       |
                       ++-----------------------++
                       |       Customer C        |
                       |      Prefix PAC/48      |
                       |      Prefix PBC/48      |
                       +-------------------------+

In this scenario customer C gets a /48 from every ISP (PAC/48 from ISP A
and PBC/48 from ISP B) and communicates the existance of these prefixes to
every provider (as mentioned earlier, how this is done is not explained
here). Thus, e.g. ISP A knows that it has a multihomed route to
customer C with prefix PBC/48.

Usually, all traffic from the outside to PBC/48 will go through ISP B.
If ISP B detaches from the DFZ now, ISP A has to announce to the DFZ
somehow, that it has a valid route to PBC/48. This can be done in two
different ways within (e)BGP:


Approach 1:
When ISP B detaches, it's BGP announcement of PB/32 will vanish from the
global routing table. ISP A's border router could use this as a trigger to
announce PBC/48 to the DFZ. It will remove this announcement when PA/32
reappears.

The advantage here is that the /48 will only be present in the DFZ, when
the usual routes fail. The disadvantages are bad convergence and possible
multiple routes. If ISP A and ISP B are very distant, it may take some
time until the /48 is known everywhere. If ISP B detaches from the DFZ
only for a split second - or even flaps - both prefixes will be visible
in the DFZ for some time.


Approach 2:
The second approach is more severe and requires a change in BGPs default
routing behaviour.

Usually BGP choses the route for a packet based on the longest prefix
match calculation. The suggestion here is, that (e)BGP - despite this
rule - chooses the _shortest_ prefix in the DFZ. This behaviour has to
be restricted to prefixed between /32 and /48. This restriction is
neccessary, because we only want this to happen in the routing area.
Within a site, longest prefix match should still be possible. And,
shortest match needs to be prevented for prefixes shorter than /32, else
anyone could create a _real_ black hole by announcing an /<32 to the
DFZ.

Assuming this behaviour of (e)BGP, in the above scenario ISP A could simply
announce PBC/48 to the DFZ. It will get announced to everyone, but it
should not get used in the forwarding table, cause the (now) better prefix
PB/32 exists. If now ISP B detaches and the prefix PB/32 is retrieved from
the routing table, every node in the DFZ will add the PBC/48 to the
forwarding table and the new route to the customer establishes.

Advantages here are the faster convergence. A disadvantage is the major
change in BGPs behaviour. This 'shortest path' criteria may be critical,
because calculation of the best route might get complex and expensive.
Also, again the routing table may grow large, but in return the
forwarding table will stay small. It is not know what other impact a
'shortest prefix' selection will have.

So long,
     Christian (Schild :-)

Hi Cristian

Wouldn't this be somehow similar to RFC 2260?

I see two problems with this:

1. An ISP's aggregate route (the /32) disappearing from the global 
routing table
    is an extremely rare event. Last mile problems are infinitely more 
common,
    and after that there is the class of partial ISP failures (for 
instance,
    a single POP is partitioned from the network) where the aggregate 
remains
    visible.

2. Conditional announcement makes the global routing system less 
predictable,
    which is dangerous. The sudden appearance of thousands of more 
specific
    /48s could easily break systems that could just about cope with the 
regular
    aggregated situation.

Hi Marcelo,

Hm, I don't think so. RFC 2260 seems to be similar but isn't the same. In 
fact, it could be used to help in one of the first three cases of failures I 
talked about.

But RFC2260 talks about connecting a site to an ISP (e.g. by extending BGP to 
the customer). In my mail I talk about how an ISP A could inject a customers 
prefix (that is part of another ISP B's /32) to the DFZ, without endangering 
the size of the routing table. This is not solved by RFC2260.

Hm, if just one POP disappears, the ISP (and the customer) is still rachable,
we don't have a loss of connectivity and no action has to be taken.

I see. But in our approach 2, the longer prefix is already present in the 
routing table. Only if the shorter prefix disappears, it will be added to the 
forwarding table. It is some kind of 'automatic aggregation'. Do you think it 
will be that extremely costly? Moreover I think, systems 'that could just 
about cope' should be replaced, and they shouldn't be a concern here.

So long,
     Christian

Maybe a better solution would be a backup organization that announces 
the /32 if it disappears and tunnels the packets to the customers over 
the secondary ISPs.

??? If the POP the customer connects to goes down, the customer isn't 
reachable over the addresses from that ISP anymore.

Not costly, dangerous.

If the routers must be able to handle the full set of unaggregated 
prefixes anyway, why bother aggregating? Maybe this can work in theory 
but not in practice. Many people will just filter the /48s to avoid 
problems.

I'm not sure if I got your point here. Are you suggesting that another ISP 
has to take over all the traffic for the disconnected ISP? I hardly believe
this will ever happen in the real world :) Things like this could only be 
done administratively and we want a protocol-based solution.

Oh, this is our failure case 3 and shouldn't be considered here. A tunneled 
solution could handle this. (Please note that we are preparing a draft for a 
protocol based solution that could handle cases 1-3. Later :-).

Well, a large routing table is only a memory/msg-size problem. A large 
forwarding table also slows down the forwarding process. With automatic 
aggregation at least the latter is solved.

Well, if BGP's behaviour would change to aggregation, filtering of 
/48 is done automatically, and configured filtering of /48 is no longer 
neccessary.

It could. An ISP could set up a related, but independent backup 
network. Since this network would only have to peer or buy transit in a 
couple of locations and maintain a bunch of tunnels, this wouldn't be 
too costly.

Memory scales linear so that's not the biggest problem. Processing 
scales worse than linear so in the end that will be the downfall of 
huge routing tables.

This isn't a protocol issue. Vendors can implement this today, but they 
choose not to.

Agree, specially the tunnel part of the solution.

I understand that the difference would be that RFC 2260 proposes that
the end-site injects the alternative route information and in the other
case is the ISP that injects the address space assigned by the other ISP
to the end-site.
However, i am not sure that this is a feature of the alternative
proposal. I mean RFC 2260 does not requires coordination between ISPs
while the other proposal does.

I do not see any difference between the two proposals in this point
(probably i am failing to understand something)
I both cases a more specific prefix in injected when an outage occurs,
so both proposal contribute with an additional entry in the  DFZ routing
table during the outage (and no longer than that)
Am i missing something?

No, neither does our proposal. The ISP A reacts on signals from the DFZ 
(vanishing of PB/32), the other ISP B is not directly involved. 
A feature may be, that it is not nesseccary to establish a BGP peering to the 
customer and therefore the customer doesn't need to have a non-private ASN.

You are right, I missed the conditional clause, that the customer injects a 
prefix _only_ when the other connection fails. But this may be a problem, as 
the customer may not always be able to detect a failure in the other ISP's 
global uplink (e.g. cause the BGP session customer<->ISP B is still 
established), while our proposal could handle that. 

So long,
     Christian

Ok.
But the ISPB has to know which prefix to inject, but this may be

Yes, i think so.
However, the end-site needs some mechanisms to known how to route
packets. I mean, if there is an outage above ISPa, the end-site needs to
know that it must send packets through ISPb, how do you achieve that if
you do not use BGP?

Ok, well. This can be done with some kind of multihoming information exchange 
protocol, that signals failures and simultanously securely exchanges prefix 
information between the customer and the ISP, opens and closes secure tunnels 
between them and sets proper ingress filters. Don't worry, should we write it 
down in detail? :-)

I would say that this can be done using BGP, what advantages do find in
providing a new tool?

I think this may be interesting...
Christian's Host centric proposal  deals with ingress filtering
problems, but i do not recall that this possibility is considered,
perhaps it would be interesting to study it (IMHO).

After browsing through this thread I'd like
to ask the following question: how many people
on this list would agree that a scalable
*engineering* solution to the multihoming
problem can be based neither on routing as we
know it today nor on any future improved and
superior routing architecture (if such an
architecture is based on the graph-theoretical
network representation)? (I assume that any
address binding mechanisms (similar to DNS)
are not considered as a part of routing.)

Also, a somewhat related question: is handling
failures beyond the links between the multihomer
and its transit provider (such as failures of links
between providers and the rest of the world) a
requirement? That it is not is an implicit assumption
of my first question. If it is (like it seemingly
follows from the requirement ID but not from Christian's
experiment), then a solution can only be routing-based,
and, hence (how many would agree?), it cannot be
scalable.

thanks,
--
dima.

I wouldn't:  
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-van-beijnum-multi6-isp-int- 
aggr-00.txt

There's also the current practice of announcing a more specific out of  
A's aggregate to B. Even if the more specific is filered so traffic  
ends up with A, if A and B peer it can still reach the destination over  
B.

For some users: yes.

I don't see how your conclusion follows from your premise. Adding a  
level of indirection (such as the identifier/locator separation) would  
handle this nicely.

I do, based on the premise that multihoming information to end points cannot be
transmitted via a broadcast or via a routing protocol without the transmission
being unscalable.  The goal of transmitting the information conflicts with the
goal of maintaining stability of the core.  We see the results of this in BGP
by the instability caused by route flapping and other similar events.

In my opinion, BGP represents an unstable feedback loop or system. 

Mathematically, I believe it can probably be modelled by differential equations
which ultimately have perioidic functions as solutions.  I am not even sure
that BGP can cope fully with unstable links between nodes even in a fully
aggregated network.  However an aggregated network eliminates two areas of
instability. 

The first is that in an unaggregated BGP network, when a link becomes degraded
the traffic being redirected via another path is likely to add components to
the differential equation that result in positive feedback loops. 

The second is that in an unaggregated BGP network, minor changes to the
topology need to be propagated (i.e. broadcast) to the entire network.  Aside
from the problem of all nodes requiring enough resources to process the
quantity of information, it is this widespread broadcasting which further adds
to excessive data passing from node to node and adding further complications to
the differential equation representing the whole network. 

That's my opinion.  The analysis may be flawed, so feel free to criticize.

I would NOT agree that there are no solutions in routing.
That said, I think that a solution MUST involve having
the transport NOT use the locator as a portion of the
pseudo-header.  So at the very least, there must be host
changes.

I believe that we must solve the failure of non-last-mile
links, including ISP links or even site-internal links.
We cannot do this through signaling our routing and
be scalable, so there must be some way for the 
correspondent host to try multiple locators and figure
out which locators currently work.

|    After browsing through this thread I'd like
|    to ask the following question: how many people
|    on this list would agree that a scalable
|    *engineering* solution to the multihoming
|    problem can be based neither on routing as we
|    know it today nor on any future improved and
|    superior routing architecture (if such an
|    architecture is based on the graph-theoretical
|    network representation)? (I assume that any
|    address binding mechanisms (similar to DNS)
|    are not considered as a part of routing.)
|    
|    Also, a somewhat related question: is handling
|    failures beyond the links between the multihomer
|    and its transit provider (such as failures of links
|    between providers and the rest of the world) a
|    requirement? That it is not is an implicit assumption
|    of my first question. If it is (like it seemingly
|    follows from the requirement ID but not from Christian's
|    experiment), then a solution can only be routing-based,
|    and, hence (how many would agree?), it cannot be
|    scalable.
|    
|    thanks,

Hi,

Sorry for a plug, but it seems relevant and may be interesting for lots of
people.

I'm about to submit a MSc thesis on the subject of "Examining Site
Multihoming in Finnish Networks", first looking at IPv4 and then IPv6.

If you're interested, it's available at:

http://staff.csc.fi/psavola/di.ps (.pdf is also there but quality is 
worse)

There's some minor work to be done still (like writing the abstract,
making a few pictures clearer and actually reading it properly myself ;-),
but it should pretty close to done (submitting for review in the beginning
of next week, making small modifications up until about 2 weeks from now).

Even if you don't have the time, I intend to split off a modified section
(likely based on sections 6.1 and 6.2) and submit it as an I-D in a week
or two.  By breaking down the sites by a few different types and looking
at which multihoming requirements they have, we seem to be able to solve
almost all problems at least to some extent quite nicely.  Of course, with
long term, things can be improved a lot.

Comments etc. are of course really appreciated; off-list is probably best
at least for the most of them.

In another w.g. I made a joke about most thesis's being non-relevant and
useless (for the IETF).  Hopefully this doesn't fall into that category
:-).

With MHAP this would not be needed as the PI would enter the Host Node
with the identifier in the header and could be used for the checksum, in
that architecture view.  

The use of the HOA with a MIPv6 architecture would also avoid this
problem.

Looking at GFN and HIP currently.

This is more complex.

I disagree with Tony. There is a known solution, which is to use
multiple addresses per endpoint. This effectively provides a solution to
the aggregation/routing load dilemma by representing the routing graph
as the superposition of several trees, all rooted in the DFZ. I would
contend that this is the only solution in case of host multi-homing
(e.g. GPRS+WIFI): in this case, the independent trees are joined at
their leaves. 

This is a suboptimal but workable solution in case of site multi-homing,
as the independent trees are joined at the "site" branch. How suboptimal
depends on the size of that branch vs. the size of the tree. In
practice, this is not an issue for very small sites, e.g. single subnet
sites, as the branch is tiny. It is not a real issue either for very
large branches, e.g. sites such as IBM or Microsoft, as the branch is so
large that it can be considered "close to the root" and given its own
number. 

We have an issue for the medium size branches, which can be solved
either by a routing solution (find a way to route more prefixes) or by a
site engineering solution (better management to make medium sites look
like large sites).

I'd like to take this opportunity to remark that internet addressing 
doesn't look like a tree. It's more like a field full of weed. There 
are just two levels in the hierarchy: ISPs and customers. There is no 
level above the ISPs. With a /8 worth of /32s that makes for a 
potential of 512M bonsais rather than a single tree.

That's a shame really, because a tree would allow interesting new 
routing mechanisms.

In the end entropy will get the better of us, but that doesn't mean we 
can create some order in the chaos for the time being.

Any opinions as to whether it's worth the trouble to try to create a 
hierarchy? With the right renumbering tools it could be done.

Thanks for replies so far.

I'd just like to note that I used the term
"routing" in a very narrow sense. To be
precise, I meant the "routing function."
The definition can be found, for example,
in: http://citeseer.nj.nec.com/gavoille01routing.html

For example, separation of "locators" and
"identificators", and then using various
dynamic binding mechanisms, is not routing
in this sense.

With these definitions, I guess more
people would agree with my initial
assertion since the multihomer is
necessarily a node on the graph and
the shortest path routing was found
to be incompressible on generic graphs
(see the above link but note that it
deals with the ideal world (static
and centralized), yet it provides
valuable information on the fundamental
limitations of any routing (even
not yet invented)).

Christian,

A near optimal bounds of the number of trees
required for tree-cover routing were found in
http://www.cs.tau.ac.il/~zwick/papers/route-SPAA.ps.gz
It follows that if no path inflation is
allowed (stretch k=1), then this number
scales as O(N) on generic graphs, so you
do not gain anything (which is, of course,
just a consequence of the more general fact
that the shortest path routing is incompressible).

But the Internet topology is not generic,
it's scale-free. So, has there any analysis
been done on tree-covers of Internet-like
topologies (with the hope for better scaling)?

Also, given the dynamic version of the problem,
how do I know what tree to use to reach
a specific destination at a specific moment
of time?

thanks,
--
dima.

I'm not so sure. I'm sure the math guys are really good at what they 
do, however it often doesn't have much to do with the real world. I 
have to admit that I can't decode a good deal of the math, but 
regardless of what omega is here, the following doesn't make sense:

"The current lower bound is only ¥Ø(¡în) bits for strategies optimizing 
shortest paths" (talking about local memory)

I believe that in a strictly hierarchical routing system it's possible 
to suffice with d+log(d)+3*log(3) bits of memory. Sure, you need 
something like n*log(n) routers that way, but that's another story...

In a hierarchical system, you can aggregate away more and more 
information as you get higher in the hierarchy. However, when a node 
moves to another part of the hierarchy, you break aggregation for part 
of the tree. The farther the node moves, the more aggregation suffers. 
But we can move nodes short distances in the hierarchy without causing 
many problems. So if we align our addressing hierarchy with the 
possible movements of nodes and/or the other way around, routing-based 
and scalable multihoming becomes possible. Hence my proposal for 
geographic aggregation. Then, when a site moves from one ISP to another 
as the result of a rehoming event, aggregation is still intact from the 
closest place where the ISPs interconnect and up.

Iljitsch,

This is not math but CS :)

You probably refer to some place in the overview
where generic graphs are discussed. Sure, routing
on special types of graphs can be much more compact.
For example, it's O(1) for rings. For trees, the best
known result requires only ~O(log(N)) bits of memory
to store node IDs, and nothing else, -- based only
on its node ID plus source and destination node IDs,
the node can make its routing decisions in constant
time.

All known constructions with multiple levels of
abstraction are inferior to more recent findings.
In addition, you cannot seriously speak about
"locality" on the Internet inter-domain graph
since there are very few "remote" vertices --
the average AS path length is between 3 and 4
with a very narrow width of the distance
distribution.

The main problem with applicability of those
generic results to the Internet is that they are
too generic. The Internet is not a ring or a tree,
of course, but it has its specific topology, which
is scale-free (power-law) and for which exact
bounds are not known yet (at least to me).

An update,

1) yes, the thesis _is_ in English ;-)

2) the files have been updated slightly, mainly editorial updates but I've
also added the abstract and some other relatively minor changes.

For the curious, the abstract is below.

Thanks for interest.

======
Site multihoming means end-sites connecting to multiple separate network
service providers; currently, no IPv6 site multihoming
mechanism has been widely accepted yet.

This thesis studies both IPv4 and IPv6 site multihoming mechanisms using
literature, other similar studies, analysis of route advertisements at the
Finnish exchange point FICIX, and queries on multihoming practices to
major ISPs in Finland.

Currently in IPv4, there seem to be three-four main mechanisms which are
used to achieve at least some of the multihoming benefits: obtaining own
address space and AS number and advertising those, advertising more
specific routes with different path, using multi-connecting and leveraging
NAT.

In IPv6, the first two of IPv4 mechanisms which are considered
architecturally unscalable have been operationally prevented for now and
the fourth does not exist.

Based on a tentative roadmap introduced in this thesis, organizations are
split to four categories: minimal, small, large and international; each
have different multihoming requirements which can be met in different
ways.

Focusing on immediate and short term solutions, minimal organizations do
not seem to require a solution, small ones could use multi-connecting,
host-centric multihoming or multihoming at site exit routers approaches,
large ones the same or possibly separate provider independent address
allocations, and international ones either provider independent
allocations or be broken down to multiple large organizations and using
those techniques.

It is apparent that only a limited amount of work is needed to enable
sufficiently good multihoming mechanisms which should provide the required
features.  However, as the mechanisms are unarguably more difficult for
the end-site, while taking the global Internet routing architecture better
into the account, it is unclear whether they might be adopted.

I'm afraid that my geo proposal has again been mangled beyond  
recognition. Let me say it once more: NOBODY announces the aggregates  
(except maybe to customers). They are local to each ISP network, hence  
the "provider-internal aggregation" part.

Nope, and even then I had to leave stuff out .. when you can't expect the
readers to be aware of anything related to multihoming, things will get 
noisy.

And as I've said before, I fail to see how it actually solves the relevant
multihoming problem then :-).  Clearly this seems to be somethng that
needs to be said more clearly.. Having geographical addresses that are
specific to an ISP is a complete non-solution, we aren't worried about 
the scalability of provider-internal geo more specifics...

The use of fonts which are not included by default in PDF.  I'd have to 
put that through Adobe Distiller or do some tricks, which I didn't bother 
yet.

You don't say.

"To make multihoming (as we know it today) possible, individual routes
must be present in the global routing table. But in order to fit the
routing table into a router, there must be aggregation. These
requirements seem at odds with each other. This is because there is an
unspoken assumption: the full global routing table must be present in
all routers that are part of the default-free zone. Dropping this
requirement makes everything much more complex, but it is possible. The
global routing table can then be split into several parts, where
individual routers all handle one (or a few) of those parts.

This works as long as traffic for a certain subset of the destination
networks present in the global routing table is always sent to a router
containing that part of the global routing table. The obvious way to
accomplish this is for each router to announce an aggregate covering the
part of the global routing table it serves. For instance, if a network
has four routers and wants to divide routing information for the IPv6
global unicast address space over those routers, it could have router A
handle 2000::/5, router B 2800::/5, router C 3000::/5 and router D
3800::/5. So if this network peers with another network that announces
2200:abc::/35 and 3ffe:def::/35, all routers except router A filter out
the first route, and all routers except router D filter out the second
route. When router C then has a packet for 2200:abc:1:2::1, it sends the
packet to router A (because router A announces the 2000::/5 aggregate)
and router A delivers the packet to the right peer. Note that this
behavior is completely hidden from the peer: the aggregates are only
used within the local network, they are not announced to peers. To avoid
confusion with regular provider aggregatable routes, the term "pilot
routes" will be used for this type of private aggregates."

All routers inside an ISP certainly don't need to have full routing table, 
but if *one* or those with external connections to DFZ don't, you might 
end up in problems.

If you want to remove full routing table from an AS that's in routing 
table -- well, that may be doable to an extent, but I'm not sure how it 
helps, and that's not explicitly stated.

On the other hand, if you want to reduce the number of routes in the full 
routing table inside your AS, that's a non-goal.

A,B,C,D are part of one AS.  If you try to expand that so that they 
aren't, you get into trouble.  In the same way, if you don't expand it, 
you are just solving the provider-internal problem -- and are requiring 
the propagation of more specifics in DFZ.

Could you work out an example of AS's rather than routers?  It seems to me 
that there's some huge confusion somewhere.

And that's exactly the point: we aggregate inside provider networks.

Yes. But since no single router has to keep a copy of the entire DFZ 
routing table, this is no longer a problem.

It all boils down to the question: why would someone in Europe need 
more specifics for people in the US, or vice versa?

Ok -- now I think I understand the concept.

If the max number of routes a router implementation can handle is N and
more-or-less-complete routing table (non-existant but as a concept) would
be Y (>N), you require that each ISP would have at least Y/N (rounded up)
routers each connected separately to the Internet -- that, between
operators you'd have at least Y/N (rounded up) interconnections if you
wish to have optimal paths, etc.

Forgive me saying this, but this kind of model which requires a lack of
aggregates in the core, and sets requirements for ISPs' border routers
just doesn't seem to fly.

My argument as an operator is that unless you can divide & conquer the the
full routing table to such proportions that it can't be uniform in one AS,
there's something very broken in the design of the internet routing
architecture, or the definition of the AS.

Certainly, the basic concepts of how these different routers with partial
knowledge interact with peers' and upstreams' routers of partial knowledge
seems quite fuzzy .. and this is one thing that seems critical to have
clarified (some pictures might be illustrative).

But as this seems a different proposal than Tony's, I'll remove the
reference.
 
> It all boils down to the question: why would someone in Europe need

Depends on the level of interconnection and how the routes are set up, 
there.

Currently, there is no abstraction, so it's difficult to estimate..  But
if there was, people would probably very much like *their* pretty little
route going through optimal paths and being in the full routing table of
all the routers.

I haven't really been able to form a picture in my head how the proposal
would have to be practically enabled for example through a path from an
European ISP to U.S. ISP, in between having or maybe not having transits
and ISP's which may or may not honor this model.

Each separately connected to peers. If they are "connected to the

Yes. So it doesn't scale forever but one order of magnitude is no 
problem at all and a second one (20 or so interconnects per continent) 
should be doable.

I'm not entirely sure what you're saying. Is it "if you can't hold the 
entire DFZ in a single router your architecture is broken"? That's one 
view. I'd say it's the other way around: if your architecture requires 
you to keep information about the entire world in all routers, you've 
painted yourself into a corner.

Forget current practices for a moment. Doesn't it make sense to keep 
detailed information about local stuff and not so detailed information 
about what happens farther away?

I'm considering an update to the draft, but as far as I can tell 
everything is in there.

Actually Tony's draft is just an addressing scheme which doesn't 
automatically solve routing. My geo proposal could use Tony's 
addressing scheme. (But Michel and me have written a draft of our own 
for this, you can find it under "GAPI".)

Fortunately, the days of transatlantic routing between two places in 
Europe are long gone. In other parts of the world this still happens, 
but I believe this will sort itself out for the most part before 
multihoming in those places becomes so popular the multihomed prefixes 
must be aggregated.

If someone in Asia wants to connect through European ISPs, that's their 
problem.

I did some messing around with BGP yesterday. 4000 routes are 
responsible for 60% of all our traffic, 6000 routes for another 25%. So 
that means I can have optimal routing for 85% of all traffic with just 
10% of all routes. That's good enough for me.

Cooperation from other ISPs is not needed: everyone can implement or 
not implement this as desired, just as long as the RIRs give out the 
addresses based on geography.

Can you require all of these things from all the folks?

But really, the problem is that I'm having hard time (and based on the
lack of enthuasiasm from the others, the rest as well)  figuring out
whether the model could be useful and whether it could actually work.

It just doesn't seem to be enough fleshed out to say much other than
"ouch! I don't really understand the idea, but it still gives me creeps!".  
If you want to avoid that feeling, you must warm up the folks properly :-)

If you note, I explicitly did not say that.  I said (or tried to, I was 
not precise), that:

"if you can't have the same routing table in all of your routers in a
single AS while being part of the DFZ, your architecture or the definition
of AS is broken"

In your proposal, what is the thing you're worried of?  International 
transits which are part of all the different continents and regions?

In the proposal, where are the more specific advertisements hidden?  
Being advertised between different AS's at peering points but hidden in
your that particular peering router by an internally advertised aggregate?

I can agree with that (which is the addressing model Tony is proposing 
with his geo proposal, btw.) -- if it's required, but I'd like to avoid 
it.

Yep.  

.. Whether "geographic" split makes sense is a different thing though.

I'd be very very careful of any mechanism which claimed would solve 
routing automatically.

Well, once the routes hit the dfz, it becomes your problem too.

Nice to get some figures, however, I can already hear the 10% yelling
quite loudly..

I also made a rough sketch on more specifics (it's in 5.3.1).  In an
exchange in Finland, 1661 prefixes were advertised some time ago.  50% of
them were /24's.  Those only covered 1.7% of all the advertised address
space though.

Interesting figure, eh?  I guess it's no wonder that less than 5% of folks
eat up at least 75% of the routing table entries.  I guess that shows
something about routing tables.

Forgive me for sounding skeptic, but I'm not as sure without further 
analysis that no cooperation would be required.

It allows around ten million multihomed networks, so that answers the 
useful part. Nobody has ever pointed out any aspect that presumably 
wouldn't work (just stuff they aren't real comfortable with) so either 
I am as smart as I think or nobody wants to take the time to carefully 
read the draft.

What's so hard to understand??? In the US you create an aggregate route 
for the US address block and you accept /48s for US destinations. In 
Europe, you create an aggregate for the European address block and 
accept /48s for European destinations. So when you have a packet in the 
US that needs to go to a European destination, you don't have a /48 
route so the packet is routed to Europe by means of the aggregate. In 
Europe, the packet is routed further as per the /48 that is in the 
routing tables of European routers. Rinse, repeat.

So how do I do that? Buy everyone drinks at the IETF meetings?

Ok, then OSPF and IS-IS explicitly support broken networks...

But just now you said you wanted to be able to have the same routing 
info in all routers! You can't have it both ways.

If you have a better idea, I'd like to hear it. The trouble with a 
situation where routers only hold a partial table is that the traffic 
has to physically move to the place where the routing information is. 
This is incredibly inefficient, _unless_ the place where the routing 
information is happens to be in the right direction of where the 
traffic has to go to anyway.

Tell me what's missing and I'll put it in.

I don't mean solving all routing problems forever, just that Tony's 
scheme needs additional routing stuff to do something useful.

Your milage may vary. If you mainly host websites in the local language 
this is going to be very different from a situation where you connect 
the rooms of a big convention hotel.

What really annoys me to no end is the people who announce 10, 20, 100, 
200 /20s that could easily be aggregated. Some of the people announcing 
/24s are doing this for good reasons, but people filter on the /20 
boundary and hurt exactly the wrong people.

I don't understand why the large networks don't do anything about this. 
I would simply de-peer.

What exactly would another ISP have to do so I can aggregate within my 
own network??? If I want to accept all routes within 195.0.0.0/8 in 
Amsterdam, all routes within 196.0.0.0/8 in London and so on, I can do 
that without cooperation. (I have to deaggregate if I don't peer in 
London with someone who announces 196.12.34.0/24, though, but that's 
still something I can do on my own.)

Because of money, policy, and AUPs, traditionally. I doubt if this will

As a real example happening now(ish):

In the context of IPv6 experiments between Abliene and 6NET, we would
wish to have some experiments run over 6NET infrastructure and 6NET
partner (native) links to Abilene, while regular production IPv6 traffic
goes via GEANT (via its imminently native link to Abilene).  Thus we
would advertise a specific /64 (where the test equipment resides) to 
Abilene via the 6NET partner path, which would not be propogated outside 
Abilene.   So it's a private agreement between two networks which have 
a private link outside their regular production path.

Do you think it reasonable to have (at least) two DFZs--one using PA 
addresses and the other using PI addresses?  Presumably, there would be a 
large number of interconnects between the DFZs.  Even if there are known 
problems in multihoming with PA addresses, I think there is too large a 
base to get rid of them.
