There's a small debate going on within the Apple IPv6 mailing list 
over whether it is wise to have an application prefer v6 
connectivity, when it is available, over v4. The argument against 
preferring to use v6 runs along the lines of "most people have only 
v4 connectivity, and for those few that have v6, the performance of 
v4 is usually better".

Although it is hardly a scientific way to conduct a survey, I'm 
curious what the members of this group think of that assertion. 
Personally, I find that my v6 connectivity is either just about as 
good as v4, or very much worse, and the difference is whether the 
other end is connected natively or through some variety of tunnel. 
But I don't have a good feel for what percentage of v6-accessible 
sites fall into each category.

There is also a sub-argument about 6to4, and whether it is sensible 
to enable 6to4 with anycast relay support given the dearth of relay 
routers. There seems to be some agreement that in the abscence of a 
local v6 router, allowing the machine to configure itself as a 6to4 
router without a relay is a reasonable compromise. I think that I can 
agree with that, if those v6 connection attempts which fail without 
the default route, do so rapidly enough to avoid delaying the 
eventual v4 connection. Would anyone with more 6to4 experience care 
to comment on that idea?

Bill.

I don't see that distinction, perhaps because tunnels count for almost
all of the IPv6 I do.

It depends which performance is counted - I find that IPv6 connectivity
tends to work more reliably than IPv4 most of the time (but that may just
be that most people advertising IPv6 make sure it works most of the time,
whereas IPv4 is just everybody, some conscientious, others not.

On straight bandwidth type of performance (byte per second) it varies
day to day - my IPv6 and IPv4 travel over different paths, sometimes one
is more congested, other times the other is.

But, the real issue, for most people, is that IPv6 by-passes NAT, and
IPv4 doesn't.   That's the one that matters, and for that reason alone
I'd always take IPv6 in preference to IPv4 any day, regardless of how
much slower it seemed.

If you're interested in another random data point, my IPv6 connectivity
is about the same as IPv4 at home and at work, as the ISPs provide
either native connectivity or connectivity via tunnels, and both
ISPs peer at the local IXP. During the SQL-slammer my IPv6 connectivity
was significantly better than IPv4 ;-)

I really wonder if there is a dearth of 6to4 relay routers. My work
and home ISPs both have relay routers. When I use 6to4 with other
Irish ISPs I see the traffic going to several different relays (I
think I've seen two distinct ones on Germany and Switch in Switzerland).

Hi, v6ops folks,

We've updated the draft on Application Aspects of IPv6 Transition.

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-shin-v6ops-application-transition-01.txt

I think there is a lot of support for proceeding with the IP
version-independent application development guidelines in the draft.

In order to acheive this, section "Application porting considerations"
and
"Developing IP version-independent applications" are newly added.

As well, Eva was joined in author team.

We wait for your comments.

Thanks,
Myung-Ki.

Just out of curiosity, have the fixed that little problem in the MAC OS
where opening the printer selection window results in a ping every 30
seconds to all possible printers out there?

It was a problem in the old Mac OS, and if it is still there then you could
be sending out trillions of IMP pings every 30 seconds, this is almost as
good as Quake for killing a network.

Many networks have 6to4 relays that they do not advertise outside their
own network... so "dearth" is a visibility issue also...

Anecdotal case:  about a year ago I was downloading BIND 9 from
ftp.isc.org.  I typed "ftp ftp.isc.org"; it wasn't obvious, but my machine
used the IPv6 address.  I couldn't understand why the transfer was only
getting roughly 1 KB/sec.  I used "ping" and "traceroute" and things
looked just fine.  It wasn't until I scrolled up and saw "entering
extended passive mode" that I finally realized the performance problem --
I was using IPv6.  A resulting traceroute6 showed my routing from my home
to Cisco to Japan back to ISC.

Being the enterprise network control freak that I am, I would really like
a standardized ability to prefer IPv4 over IPv6 until we feel comfortable
that IPv6 reachability and performance of the topology is up to par with
the IPv4 network.  I'm sure we'll do fine, but I imagine we'll have a
number of cases where we're asked to figure out performance problems and
will end up realizing it's because IPv6 was used over IPv4.

If anyone is interested, I had a go at counting 6to4 relay routers
from the IPv6 side. I did this by tracerout6ing with a 6to4 source
address and then using tcpdump to catch the IPv4 addresses of
relay-routers that was used to encapsulate the replies. To decide
where to traceroute to, I used the ::1 addresses of each prefix in
the IPv6 BGP table (as seen from HEAnet this morning).

After doing this, I got replies encapsulated 26 different source
IPv4 addresses. One was the anycast address and I had a go at
guessing the countries of the remainder (AU:1 CZ:1 DE:1 FI:1 IE:1
JP:1 KR:3 LT:2 NL:3 NO:1 PT:1 SE:2 TH:1 TW:1 UK:2 US:3).

About 1/4 of the response packets came from the 6to4 anycast address,
so it seems to be worth trying to figure out how many relays it
represents. Looking at the histogram of TTLs in the IPv4 header,
it looks like there are at least 3 or 4.

To try to get a better idea, I tracerout6ed to a 6to4 address using
a routing header to get the packet to first go to nodes that had
had replies encapsulated with the anycast address. The second last
hop of these traceroutes should help identify the 6to4 relay.

This produced 27 IPv6 addresses, but sevral of them looked like
they were assigned to the same machine. Looking at the /32s that
these IPv6 addresses are in suggests that there are actually about
12 distinct relays in this group. Looking them up in whois shows
that two of the /32s are in switch, so we're probably looking at
11 (CH:1 DE:3 EE:1 FI:1 IE:1 JP:1 NL:1 UK:1 US:1).

In total, that's about 33, if you take into account a possible
overlap of 2 or 3.

[Naturally, I may have missed lots of relays that aren't visable
from the route to the ::1 address within a prefix...]

        David.

There is a way to do this if the OS implements rfc3484's policy table.
You can change the precedence of IPv4 addresses in this table to
accomplish this.  It's is described in section 10.3 of rfc3484.

Interestingly, my colleagues and I published a draft on "Dual Stack
IPv6 on by Default" (draft-roy-v6ops-v6onbydefault-00.txt) that
touches upon this briefly.  Version 01 of this draft was submitted
last weekend, so it should show up in the directory any day now.

The transition from an all IPv4 network to an all IPv6 network
requires several interim steps, being one of them the evolution of
current IPv4 dependent protocols to protocols that are independent
of the type of IP addresses used. Hence, it is hoped that protocols
will be redesigned and re-implemented to become network address
independent, or at least to dually support IPv4 and IPv6.
To achieve that step, it is necessary to survey and document all IPv4
dependencies experienced by current standards - Full, Draft, and
Proposed - and Experimental RFCs. Hence, this document describes
IPv4 addressing dependencies that deployed IETF Application Area
documented Standards may experience.

This document seeks to document all usage of IPv4 addresses in currently

successfully transition from an all IPv4 Internet to an all IPv6 Internet, many interim steps will be taken. One of these steps is the evolution of current protocols that have IPv4 dependencies.  It is hoped that these protocols (and their implementations) will be redesigned to be network address independent, but failing that will at least dually support IPv4 and IPv6.  To this end, all Standards (Full, Draft, and Proposed) as well as Experimental RFCs will be surveyed and any dependencies will be documented.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IPv6 Operations Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Survey of IPv4 Addresses in Currently Deployed IETF 
                          Sub-IP Area Standards
	Author(s)	: P. Nesser II
	Filename	: draft-ietf-v6ops-ipv4survey-subip-01.txt
	Pages		: 0
	Date		: 2003-7-3
	
This document seeks to document all usage of IPv4 addresses in currently
deployed IETF Sub-IP Area documented standards.  In order to 
successfully transition from an all IPv4 Internet to an all IPv6 Internet, many interim steps will be taken. One of these steps is the evolution of current protocols that have IPv4 dependencies.  It is hoped that these protocols (and their implementations) will be redesigned to be network address independent, but failing that will at least dually support IPv4 and IPv6.  To this end, all Standards (Full, Draft, and Proposed) as well as Experimental RFCs will be surveyed and any dependencies will be documented.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

This document is a general overview and introduction to the v6ops IETF
workgroup project of documenting all usage of IPv4 addresses in
currently deployed IETF documented standards.  It is broken into seven
documents conforming to the current IETF areas.  It also describes the
methodology used during documentation, which type of RFCs that has
been documented, and a concatenated summary of results.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IPv6 Operations Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Survey of IPv4 Addresses in Currently Deployed IETF 
                          Routing Area Standards
	Author(s)	: P. Nesser II
	Filename	: draft-ietf-v6ops-ipv4survey-routing-01.txt
	Pages		: 21
	Date		: 2003-7-3
	
This investigation work seeks to document all usage of IPv4 addresses 
in currently deployed IETF Routing Area documented standards.  In 
order to successfully transition from an all IPv4 Internet to an all 
IPv6 Internet, many interim steps will be taken. One of these steps 
is the evolution of current protocols that have IPv4 dependencies.  
It is hoped that these protocols (and their implementations) will be 
redesigned to be network address independent, but failing that will 
at least dually support IPv4 and IPv6.  To this end, all Standards 
(Full, Draft, and Proposed) as well as Experimental RFCs will be 
surveyed and any dependencies will be documented.

Hi all,=20

I took a look at your paper a few weeks ago, but did not take time to
answer. I do think that such a paper is really usefull!

I have no comment on the structure only on the ideas...

- Section 2 Increased end-to-end Transparency:

I do think that is really important, most of entreprise network managers
I meet are really concerned about that point !

- Section 5 : IPv6 Service Piloting Done Insecurely

I did not understand your point about personal firewall and entreprise
firewall when you write that those firewalls "are often expected to also
become IPv6-capable (even tough this is not really necessary)". Could
you explain ?

- Section 9 : Operational Factors

Your point concerning "IPv6 processing may not happen at (near) line
speed ..." does not concern security but availability ? Or do you have
in mind DoS attack ?

Hi Pekka,

I think it is very valuable to point out such concrete and operational
issues, one may face thinking about how to deploy IPv6 securely and
safely (without disrupting existing services), as well. =20
It seems actually that there 3 types of issues : issues due to the
protocol itself, issues due to transition/co-existence tools, and issues
due to the deployement that may be adopted. And I guess each type of
issue should have specic kind of answer.

Regards,
Alain.

Abstract

   The transition/co-existance from IPv4 to IPv4/IPv6 causes one to
   consider the security considerations of such a process.  In this
   memo, I try to give an overview of different aspects relating to
   IPv6: the notion of increased end-to-end transparency, implications
   of tunneling, the use of IPv4-mapped addresses, the considerations of
   IPv6 service piloting without firewalls, IPv6 protocol-specific
   issues, IPv6 transition/co-existence mechanism -specific issues,
   consequences of enabling IPv6 by default, and operational security
   issues when enabling IPv6 in the network infrastructure.


It's only about 8 pages or so :-)

Hi,

Thanks for your comments.

Sorry, I left out too much text apparently.

The point is that IPv4 access can go through one firewall, and IPv6 access 
through some other firewall.  They don't need to be one and the same, and 
neither does their software need to be the same.

Yes, this is more of an availability issue (which is part of security).  
It can also be used as a DoS attack.

The bottom line is, if people don't feel confident enough in the IPv6 
support, they really can't enable it (especially in the dual-stack 
networks, where IPv4 is "production").

I agree that this characterization seems reasonable.  It's sometimes 
difficult to draw the line, especially between the first two, though.

Hi,

Thanks for comments.

Sorry for not being to answer right away..

The reason why I left them out (mostly: I only said that transition 
mechanism security has to be considered, in general) is that I don't want 
to try to tackle the same issue many more times.

In this particular case (6to4), I think it has been rather well 
documented.  Did you have some others in mind?

Of course, it might be a good idea to try to add some kind of summary of
the discussion here, or some brief words at least.  Only, I'm not sure if
there is an agreement on how to summarize it (at least yet).

I think this stems from even a bigger issue about Neighbor Discovery.  
Consider an IPv6-enabled node in any network at all, where IPv6 routers
don't exist, and a transition mechanism isn't available (there are a
*plenty* of those).

The same attack is still possible.

This stems from the ND principle of assuming all destinations are on-link 
unless you know otherwise.  This has caused problems in the past too.

I personally don't think this is a big issue as such, as in IPv6 protocol 
suite there is an assumption that your link is relatively secure.  But it 
might make sense to bring it up explicitly so folks don't forget about it.

It might make sense to kickstart some effort (this and potential issues 
unearthed in the v6-on-by-default come to kind) to record the issues 
encountered in Neighbor Discovery specs (as those are bound to be revised 
soonish).

Thanks.

Hi,=20

I am curious on what the implementations on the relay routers do, when =
encapsulating packets
using 6to4 anycast address (192.88.99.1) ? At least there is the issue =
of fragmentation at the
IPv4 level where when multiple relay router is sending packets to the =
same 6to4 router, the 6to4
router may not be able to properly reassemble as the same fragment id =
could be used by both
relay routers. I saw some discussion in =
draft-savola-v6ops-6to4-security-01.txt which recommends
that relay routers should use 192.88.99.1. Not sure what implementations =
do. Does the 6to4=20
router implementations verify to make sure that the source address used =
is 192.88.99.1 in this case ?

To be clear, one of the previous versions of 
draft-savola-v6ops-6to4-security stated that all relays using 192.88.99.1 
might be beneficial.  I don't think this is the common practice, though.

It seems to me that the crux of this issue is whether the relay uses 
192.88.99.1 as the source address (when 192.88.99.1 is otherwise used), or 
one of its other addresses.  I've seen relays act both ways.

From the above, I'm not sure if the problem you're describing is a serious
one or not.  AFAICS, it would require that the fragmentation ID's would
collide while defragmenting.  Typically, packets causing defragmentation
arrive only some milliseconds apart, and the probability of collision in
that window seems rather small (but possible, of course).  This could be
considered just one source of L2 errors from IPv6 protocol perspective.

Has anyone collected statistics or analyzed this in detail to see whether 
this is a big issue or not?

Hi All,

Please note that we made an error in the agenda.  The following
draft is not the most recent version of the Enterprise
scenarios document:

>ENT Scenarios - 40 mins, Yanick Pouffary/Jim Bound
><http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-v6ops-entnet-scenarios-00.txt>

The most recent version can be found at:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-pouffary-v6ops-ent-v6net-03.txt

This version has been substantially modified from the previous
version, so it is important to read the right draft.

I apologize for any inconvenience, as this problem was caused by
the fact that I erroneously accepted the earlier version as a WG
draft.

We will update the agenda as soon as possible.

Sorry,
Margaret

Chairs,

For the enterprise session.  The time is to much.  It should be 20
minutes.  If persons have read the draft what should happen is input to
the general direction the draft has taken.  If you have not read the
draft you should shut up in the meeting :--).  Much input to this work
should come on the mailing list before a meeting where all participants
of this working group exist not just at meeting and definitely not adhoc
at the last minute in a meeting for bashing.

We have had ZERO input on this draft and not one comment on this mailing
list.

Do you want to do this or what?  The team restructured from our last
meeting.

We do not want more than 20 minutes please fix the agenda to reflect
that.

We probably should have an interim Enterprise Scenario meeting before
Minneapolis but the real question for this meeting is should this become
a working group item or not.  Getting that determined in Vienna would be
success.

thanks
/jim =20

Bob,

This works.  When Yanick does the update of what we did this group asked
for we are done. Then Margaret should ask if this work is to be working
group item.  That will motivate the team to haul ass and go to next step
and we should have an interim meeting to move quickly.  Yanick and I
have talked and this is not going to take 40 minutes.  We have a real
issue with no mail input on this list.  We also don't want people using
the meeting to work their agendas.  That is unacceptable.  I also feel
if you get 15 hands that read the spec and then 100 hands on voting the
vote is irrelevant, unless the subject has had wide discussion on the
mail list (like the private address debate).  This work has had zero
discussion.=20

Is this clear above regarding the point of order?  Thanks.

We have developed three use scenarios for this version.  The idea is to
be able to use them to map many scenarios into so we can do the next
step which is the analysis document.

We have altered this document from any input (within reason of course)
but for our team to feel this work is worth working on we need to know
if we are a working group item or not. After the ngtrans fiasco and
hassle many in this community trusts nothing you all do as chairs for
awhile as far as "administration".  You burned some of us pretty bad and
for me it was personal too as it caused me a lot of work.

Also did you see the DoD IPv6 annoucment that Oct 2003 it is required to
provide dual capable IPv4/IPv6 systems.  The strategy is an aggressive
move towards IPv6 as fast as possible.  That means dominant IPv6
backbones quick.  See updated DSTM spec after Vienna which will define
what 'dominant Ipv6 backbone' means later and why I mention it even in
this thread. DoD is the largest Internet Enterprise in the U.S.  I am
talking with them directly on this too.  So we will have that input to
for this Enterprise work.

Thanks for the follow up,
/jim

Jim,

I don't disagree with what you say, and am certainly concerned in general 
with how little discussion we get on lists about important topics such as 
this. I do still think it will be useful to have some discussion on the 
draft (even if its only 5 minutes).

However, I suggest that you and Yanick get in touch with Margaret and Pekka 
before the meeting and talk about the process. I won't be at this IETF.


Thanks,

Bob

Bob,

OK we will send note to Margaret and Pekka today.  Discussion is good.
Brainstorming on specs with no mail input is political.  Also we wanted
to just do brainstorming on multi6 and the ruling was we don't do
brainstorming in IETF meetings.  We have a minimal draft to get started
and discussion on that direction is fine brainstorming scenarios etc is
different and I for one want 'consistency' in the IETF rule sets.  I
don't want them made up adhoc as community member.

lack of solid draft review is a major problem, and not just in this wg.

I would like to say that this -03 is in a much better shape than any of 
the previous version,
I think we are now on a much better track, and I would recommend to 
adopt it
as a working group item.

Detailed comments:
Section 3.1, network scenario: what is scenario 2? is it a typo or is 
scenario 2 missing?

Section 4 does not tell us anything new, and is actually part of the 
solution space,
not the scenario space.

Section 5 is actually redundant with section 3.2, network scenario 
characteristics.
If one of the scenario 1, (2?) and 3 say you need to map 1 to 1 the 
characteristics,
then section 6 is useless. If the scenario says some characteristics do 
not necessarily
need an equivalent in v6, section 6 may gets in the way.

In fact, I believe I would be happy with this document as it is with 
only section
1, 2, 3, 6 and up, deleting section 4 & 5.

	- Alain.

I'm a little confused by the direction this effort is taking...
Basically this document is telling us that ISP can start deploying
IPv6 at their core or at their edges or both at the same time.

I guess we all knew that for a long time...
Are future revision of this document going to address the pros and cons
of both approaches? Are we expecting a companion document that
will explain how to implement both approaches?

	- Alain.

Proto 41 redirection as explain in this document cannot be demultiplex
and only works for the same number of tunnels as the number of external
IPv4 addresses.
So, if there is only one external IPv4 address, only one tunnel can be 
set up.
Also, this obviously does not work very well in case of doubled-nated 
network.
(I just happen to sit on one right now)

In case A, the extra cost in bandwidth in the tunnel broker solution 
versus Teredo
is due to the triangular routing induced by the tunnel server.
If the tunnel server is located within the ISP network, this overhead 
is almost zero.

So, I think the section 2.1.4 should recommend the deployment of
tunnel server within ISP as a first step for those ISP who'd like to 
offer IPv6 service
with minimal investment.

Also, I think that the comparison in terms of complexity is a little 
unfair.
The bubble mechanism is complex, and the tunnel broker solution
does not have to be made fully automatic. The real difference is then
that communications initiated by the outside prior to the tunnel 
establishment
will not work.

	- Alain.

Subject: [6bone] DoS attacks through 6to4 anycast relay
Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2003 11:43:42 +0200

We (SWITCH) are running one of the (still few) 6to4 anycast relays.
Normally, traffic rates are very low (last month's average input was a
little over 200kbps) but there were some spikes of several Mbps in the
past week.  On Tuesday and Wednesday, the traffic was enough to
severely disrupt our 7206VXR that serves as relay and terminates some
6bone tunnels as well.

We are currently testing an IOS image with IPv6 netflow support on
that router, so I was able to see what was going on yesterday evening
(17:00 - 18:30 UTC+2).  The number of active flows climbed to almost
3000 (from a normal 100-300).  This was due to short UDP flows with
random source and destination ports from 2002:3ED3:10C:: to
3FFE:8171:61::11 like these

SrcAddress        InpIf    DstAddress       OutIf    Prot SrcPrt DstPrt Packets
2002:3ED3:10C::   Tu2      3FFE:8171:61::11 Gi4/0    0x11 0x203D 0x8032 150
2002:3ED3:10C::   Tu2      3FFE:8171:61::11 Gi4/0    0x11 0x043D 0x9432 180
2002:3ED3:10C::   Tu2      3FFE:8171:61::11 Gi4/0    0x11 0xAA89 0x8A8E 60
2002:3ED3:10C::   Tu2      3FFE:8171:61::11 Gi4/0    0x11 0xCE89 0xDE8E 160
2002:3ED3:10C::   Tu2      3FFE:8171:61::11 Gi4/0    0x11 0xF289 0x328E 160

Netflow made this easy to spot but the large number of flows is
probably also the main reason why the router performed very badly
during the event :-(

Traffic peaked at 18Mbps before I blocked packets from 62.211.1.12 to
192.88.99.1 at the upstream router.

The source points to

but that may well be spoofed.

The destination resloves to an interesting name (with only a AAAA RR):
rootk.it :-)

I take this as a good sign that IPv6 is finally catching on ;-)

How is that a "publshed relay DoS issue"? It seems that all these =
packets had the same source and destination addresses, and that the =
address could be traced. A plausible explanation is a bug in some brand =
new software, without malicious intent; it is not necessarily a DoS =
attack. It is also not specifically a relay attack. If those two =
addresses were both native addresses, then we would have the same attack =
against every IPv6 router on the path, it would just not use the relay.

A plausible assumption seems to be that the attack was not targeted at the 
relay in particular, it just happened to be on the harm's way.

If it had been, it would probably have been nastier.

But still, I think there's something to learn from this case.  For 
example:

- even relatively low traffic counts can harm at least some of the 
deployed base

- (not mentioned here, but an issue in some other scenarios) IPv6 traffic
may be free (for some), but IPv4 is not.  So, some operators may be
hesitant to deploy or at least advertise a 6to4 relay -- this could mean
they'd get in the harm's way because 6to4 relay would be doing
encapsulation (esp. if it would be a full fledged relay)

-  the fewer 6to4 relays there are, the more probable it is *your* relay 
gets in the way of a DoS attack.. :-/

- others ?

Using the anycast address makes your relay harder to target -- the =
attacker does not know with certainty which relay will be hit! However, =
it seems that we operators only have a limited control on who can use =
their relay. Basically, the only real control is whether or not to =
advertise a route in BGP. Once a relay is advertised to some neighbor =
AS, there is no real mechanism to prevent re-advertisement. We may want =
to study some solution.

We certainly need to deploy many more relays!=20

I can't rule that out but it doesn't seem plausible to me.  It looked
like a typical UDP flood with random source and destination addresses.

BTW, there were two other such incidents on Tuesday and Thursday with
traffic rates up to 70-80Mbps (most of it was dropped by our relay).
Apparently, most traffic came from the same IPv4 address, but there
were also a few large flows from other sources, so it might have even
been a DDoS (in which case some of the other anycast relays could have
been hit as well).  Unfortunately we don't know what the destinations
were in those cases (we only have information on the IPv4 flows
towards 192.88.99.1), so we can't make any statement about that.

I'm fairly sure that the relay was not the intended victim.  The black
hats might not have realized yet that there are still lots of
bottlenecks in the 6bone.

But it's ideal for a home network.  Our students in residential DSL homes
use it for example.

I think the majority of 6bone connectivity is proto41 tunnels.

Then you might want to redirect it twice ;)
The other solution is digging vpn tunnels...

if you are referring to my mail I think what I said was that doing this 
in a full group will be hard to manage and get useful output from. We 
will have an open mike session on Wednesday, which is close to what you 
suggested. I also said that there is pleaty of bars and hallways to 
continue the brainstorming in...

Hi authors, the rest of the WG,

Thanks for putting together this document, and revising it extensively.  I 
believe it's of excellent quality and very important for the WG.  
Hopefully we'll have good discussion on this (and other operational 
aspects) in the second v6ops session in Vienna.

I've some comments on the draft. Four generic notes first:

- Sections 2.1 and 2.2 cover two rather interrelated problems.  There seems
to be some overlapping text, and I keep thinking of ways to handle/organize
these two that would seem a bit more fluent (even though it's rather good as is).

- Section 2.2 (and the last paragraph of 2.2.1) bashes the "all destinations
are on link by default" Neighbor Discovery rule pretty extensively, and I
agree with it.  However, I imagine there are legitimate reasons why people
thought it was a good idea.  We should get some idea of the tradeoffs (even
though they would not belong to this particular document -- see below).

- In Section 2 in particular, you bring out one example of default address
selection failing.  It would be very useful to try to analyze whether this
might happen in some other cases as well, and if not, state so explicitly. 
That way we can get the issues in the right proportions.  

It might also be interesting to know if there are any issues with
destination address selection in systems that don't (yet) impletement it
as specified in RFC3484 (it's more difficult than doing src address
selection..).  We're an operations WG after all ;-)

- There are some suggested modifications e.g. to ND, but there are no firm
conclusions section at least -- which would bring these points together, and
discuss pros and cons of these proposals.  Of course, one could argue that
these are out of scope of this document, and we should write (or urge ipv6
wg to do that) a short separate I-D on the pros and cons of such
modifications.

(I.e. it would be nice if it would be very explicit what we'd like to
do with to fix these issues -- if we know that yet)

substantial
-----------

   The Default Address Selection for IPv6 [ADDRSEL] destination address
   selection mechanism could save the application a few useless
   connection attempts by placing the IPv4 addresses in front of the
   IPv6 addresses.  This would be desired since all IPv6 destinations in
   this scenario are unreachable (there's no route to them), and the
   system's only IPv6 source address is inadequate to communicate with
   off-link destinations even if it did have an off-link route.

==> the comment (there's no route to them) is incorrect:
there _is_ a route to them -- the mandated
default IPv6 route pointing to the Ethernet interface!

Now, after thinking a bit this seems like a tricky issue, and we have to
be sure the terminology and the context is clear.  At least some
implementations add a default route of a very low metric (overridden by
everything else) to point to Interfaces like this.  Maybe some other
implementations do this differently?

The destinations are still unreachable, though -- but the reason is that
the Neighbor Discovery will fail to those addresses (note: this is much
worse than having no (effective) route at all, because it incurs a longer 
timeout).

   Fixing the destination address selection mechanism by adding such a
   rule is only a mitigating factor if applications use standard name 
   resolution API's that implement this mechanism, and these
   applications try addresses in the order returned.  This may not be an
   acceptable assumption in some cases, as there are applications that  
   use hard coded addresses and address search orders (DNS resolver is  
   one example), and/or literal addresses passed in from the user.

==> I'm having trouble with about "address search orders (DNS resolver is
one example)".  Isn't destination address selection implemented in the
getaddrinfo which acts as an intermediary to the entries returned by the DNS
resolver?  AFAICS, if applications use standard name resolution API's, there
is no problem.  If they implement their own hacks (including the address
ordering), there are likely to be problems.

Or am I just misunderstanding the point here?

2.3 Transport Protocol Robustness

==> this section discusses transport protocols in general for one paragraph,
and dedicates the rest to TCP.  Should UDP discussed explicitly (it may 
be that there are fewer issues with UDP, though)?

3.2.1 Dealing with Poor IPv6 Network Performance

   There are few options from the end node's perspective.  One is to
   configure each node to prefer IPv4 destinations over IPv6.  If hosts
   implement the Default Address Selection for IPv6 [ADDRSEL] policy
   table, IPv4 mapped addresses could be assigned higher precedence,
   resulting in applications trying IPv4 for communication first. This
   has the negative side-effect that these nodes will almost never use  
   IPv6 unless the only address published in the DNS for a given name is
   IPv6, presumably because of this phenomenon.

   Disabling IPv6 on the end nodes is another solution. The idea would
   be that enabling IPv6 on dual stack nodes is a manual process that
   would be done when the administrator knows that IPv6 connectivity is
   adequate.

==> another solution could be inserting such preference for IPv4, but
giving even higher preference to _some_ IPv6, e.g. the site's own /48
prefix, the ISP's prefix, or whatever seems to be topologically
reasonable.

(Actually, one could possibly implement this by the more specific routes
and preferences thing, if it would be possible to disable the default 
route configuration phase based on some toggle.  But I'm not sure if this 
is the right approach.)

The problem here is that currently this seems to be a on/off thing; either *all*
(or at least a significant number of them) destinations that are used 
should be good enough, or no support at all can be enabled.   We need to fix
this, make it easier to adjust the preferences to a bit more fine-grained
than a binary toggle.

3.3.1 Mitigating Security Risks

==> please add a sentence or two on how you think the VPN software should
react in this case.  Deny unknown protocols by defaul unless there is a
configuration option to let them be?

5. Security Considerations

   This document raises security concerns in Section 3.3.

==> still, could you try to summarize the issues in section 3.3 in one or
two short paragraphs?  I think that would be a good practice.

editorial
---------

    It begins in Section 2 by examining problems within IPv6

==> s/It/This memo/

   succeeds.  Since the system has no off-link IPv6 routes, the optimal
   scenario would be if the IPv4 addresses returned were ordered before 
   the IPv6 addresses.  The following sections describe where things can

==> s/has no off-link IPv6 routes/has only on-link IPv6 connectivity/ 

   address.  Since [ADDRSEL] considers private addresses (as defined in
   [PRIVADDR]) of site-local scope,

==> s/considers/considers to be/ ?

 It is therefore important that the system quickly    
   determine that the IPv6 destination is unreachable so that the
   application can try the IPv4 destination.

==> s/try/fall back and try/ (it's already rather clear, but just to drive
the point home, as there are also issues with that fallback in the
applications side..)

   on-link until at least address resolution has failed, which is no    
   less than three seconds (MAX_MULTICAST_SOLICIT * RETRANS_TIMER), plus

==> that's four seconds (first try, wait a second, plus 3 retransmissions,
after each 1 second delay [nowhere it is defined how long you have to wait
after the last retransmission, but I assume RETRANS_TIMER is a safe value]).
(same for 45 -> 60 seconds)

   If hosts need to communicate with on-link destinations, then then
   they need to be explicitly configured to have on-link routes for 
   those destinations.

==> reword this slightly and/or combine with the earlier paragraph so that
it is clear that this paragraph would be applicable in the scenario if the
onlink rule would be removed from the Neighbor Discovery.

   One problem is that default routes are not special.  The on-link
   assumption as stated in [ND] would have a host assume that all
   destinations are on-link when its default router list is empty.
   Clearly it shouldn't make this assumption if it has an off-link route
   that covers the destination and that route isn't a default route.
   The absence of a default route does not mean that destinations are   
   not reachable through more specific routes.

==> one might clarify even a bit further that this may be the case e.g. 
when a host is explicitly configured to have routes to only a specific 
set of addresses (e.g. the /48 prefix of the site).  We certainly have done
so as (one) security mechanism in IPv4 for e.g. backup and NFS servers.

   traffic), IPv6 packets could go through the network untouched if
   tunneled over a transport layer.  This could open the host to direct

==> s/layer/protocol, such as UDP/

   A similar problem could exist for VPN software.  A VPN could protect
   all IPv4 packets but drop all others onto the local subnet
   unprotected.

==> reword "drop all others .." slightly, e.g. "but not understand anything
about other protocols, and leave them send them on to the local subnet
unprotected."

   Enabling IPv6 on a dual stack node is only useful if applications
   that support IPv6 on that node properly cycle through addresses
   returned from name lookups and fall back to IPv4 when IPv6
 
==> s/cycle/loop/ (cycle is fine too, but loop is what I've heard the most
often and it's better to try to use the same terminology)

Yes. I talked about this with Erik Nordmark, we have to build a case 
that present
both the useful side and the harmful sides of this on-link assumption.
For now, it seems the the useful side is pretty narrow. We will do that
in the next revision of the draft (or in a separate draft)

The default address selection rules are so complex that is is difficult 
to
do a full analysis. We stumbled on this one while doing real deployment.

Well, we first discovered the issue on a system that was not (yet) 
implementing
the default address selection. But as this is (was) not standardized 
anywhere,
I'm not sure if there is any value in analyzing this any further...

This is by design. We first would like to report to the ops community 
that
there are serious problems. One we will agree on that, it will be time
to make recommendations.

I'll suggest to ways to go forward during the meeting.

You're right. Text need to be clarified a bit.

Good point. We made some measurement with UDP, it is not as severe as 
TCP
but it is far from acceptable.

If and only if there is a simple way to express the list of "reachable" 
prefixes...
Then you have the issue to distribute that list to all the internal 
nodes... tricky.
For example, in our deployment, we use a number (10-20) /48 6to4 
derived prefixes
and the list keep expanding.

I'm not sure how to achieve this.... See previous comment.

It is not clear at all to me what should be done.  One could sent all 
unknown packets
either to the bit bucket or to the other side of the VPN... Not sure 
which is best.

Roy, Alain, and Jim,

Do you perceive this work as BCP?  Or Info RFC?  If accepted and worked
on?

This work is asking very good deployment and implementation questions.

Comments in line.

Do you mean dual stack or dual IP layer.  Most implementations I am
aware of are dual IP layer.  There is a huge difference.  This is
important for clarity for the rest of the document. =20

We and others have implemented a dual IP layer not a dual stack.  So
this does not apply to us and others (yes wearing my HP hat on this
comment)???  We don't have tcp4 and tcp6 is the bottom line. =20

I am just trying to make a point we have this error throughout the IETF
and other forums dealing with standards and deployment. Not many did a
pure dual stack at all.

So this work does not apply to a network where IPv6 is robust and
dominant? =20

Or even equivalent with IPv4?

Meaning it only applies when a few subnets are doing IPv6 in a large
IPv4 cloud or network?

I agree that the optimization above for this case would be useful or
order IPv4 is wise.
This points to tools we need for transiton I think as a note and a
failing in ADDRSEL.

Anyone who implements ADDRSEL should permit it to be configurable.  This
could be an additional configuration correct?  Thus problem solved right
?  But the default rules are up for debate again I think?

Note this is a conceptual algorithm not a standards requirement. This is

But what is your point here or just setting up assumptions?  If there is
not router on the link and one sends to send to global an implementation
should catch that and simply not send the packet.  Of course I advocate
smart hosts for v4 or v6 and don't agree with dumb hosts. The code to do
this is trivial even on sensor device with low real estate for the
stack.

Same comment as above.  But it is good to document this and I don't
agree.  I guess to me this is common sense networking 101 or IPv6 for
dummies.  Maybe an IPv6 for Dummies book would be good to write to cover
many of these cases.  And vendors who don't protect users from this will
die anyway and may not even pass the IPv6 Logo requirements via the IPv6
Forum...............

This is something I agree with but that will not fly in the IETF is my
input to you. Any smart implementation does this now.  To not do it is
stupid.  The prevailing view in the IETF is that hosts are stupid and
that is the first thing to fix and that is the IETF prevailing view that
hosts are stupid.  Nice theory but will not work in practice. Must have
been router vendors that pushed this view :--) (thats a joke).

I do not make that assumption if the onlink prefix is set is the only
time I assume that as code developer reading the spec.  That is bad read
of the specification and I don't see this assumption at all.  But I see
your point.

Same comment as above.

Nothing should go over IP layer in v4 or v6 that don't have a route if
not on link and mulltiple ways to test if node is onlink anyway in any
stack implementation.

Clearly a low end IPv6 network in IPv4 cloud has to be configured
wisely.  Would it not be better to have INFO or BCP on configuring IPv6
in the particular cases you reference in this specification?

This should be an entire draft and subject by itself IMO.  The scope is
to large to even be in a spec as just a paragraph and some minor text.

But any good IPv6 implementation will give the user the option of
configuring these mechanisms over time with deployment.

This is my entire issue with ADDRSEL and why I do not advocate
implementing it at this time in pre-production or production IPv6
networks (fine for research test beds).  It is not baked yet and did not
consider all the issues this draft points to clearly.  I applaud this
draft bringing this out and we need to think about the effect of ADDRSEL
as a default too. =20

I think this work can spawn at least 3 drafts (and more) that we need to
work on.

1. Configuring IPv6 nodes in variant IPv4 and IPv6 networks.
2. Things to watch out for when deploying IPv6.
3. Smart things IPv6 implementations should do when no IPv6 router
exists.

Good brainstorming on deployment issues too.

Thanks

Hello All,

I have some questions:


[1, Introduction]

+ "routers or tunnel servers" ~= "tunnel brokers" ?

  "(...) with a manual configuration at the IPv6 router tunnel-end."
  It isnt feasible for a service you intend to sell. using manual
  configurations on routers simply isnt scalable.

+ reference to [3]

  I still dont understand why a project focused on
  Internet Exchanges (IXPs/NAPs/...) may have anything to do with NAT
  boxes and tunnels. End-users shouldnt be a topic. People managing
  networks, BGP and AS numbers should.

+ "big opportunity to rapidly deploy a huge number of nodes and networks"

  You mean, nodes of tunnel brokers?
  networks? ...using a router as a NAT client? it may seem as a good "hack
  idea" to use a laptop for this.
  a theoretical question -- does the community want rapid deployment? with
  high RTTs and high chance of self-denial-of-service ?
  ...or is it a way to kill IPv6 faster?

+ last paragraph

  You are listing the need to:
  - change tunnel brokers
  - change something in some operating systems (which ones?)
  Wouldnt be easier to v6-ize the NAT boxes? (dont know if it would be a
  good idea, as we dont need NAT boxes in the native IPv6 world...)


[4, Applicability]

+ "The most usual scope of application of this technology seems to be
   SOHO and home environments, but is not limited to these."
  Do you mind to specify more environments? I think it would be important
  to specify, if they exist.


[5, NAT design considerations]

+ "New firmware/software versions of the NAT implementations should
   ensure the support of protocol-41 forwarding."

  I would add: ", and the means for its administrator to turn it on and
  off".
  As an example, we wouldnt want anyone using a connection to a tunnel
  broker if native IPv6 is available on the wire/air.
  Mandatory support for protocol-41 forwarding seems unnappropriate, as
  tunnels usage will fade away (as a method of getting IPv6 connectivity).


[7, Security]

+ (more)

  The mechanism of forwarding protocol 41 might be considered a serious
  security issue in some organizations. Those wanting to restrict access
  to some applications/networks for instance. They can/do provide IPv4
  and native IPv6, but with a well-defined set of filtering rules. Using
  (standardizing) a mecanism that permits clients to override the set of
  rules seems dangerous. If vendors start(or continue) to permit
  forwarding of protocol 41 in their factory defaults (expressely or
  somewhat hidden) ops people can have a new plague to toy around, when
  native (and filtered) IPv6 is in place.

Hi,

FYI, FWIW, I came across this:

http://net.suug.ch/articles/2003/07/06/ip6msg.html

.. where someone has hacked a system to pass data between the endpoints 
embedded in unrecognized IPv6 destination options.  Nothing new there, but 
now it has gone operational.

However the attacks could be much more nastier too.

Similar issues have already been discussed in:

Yes, indeed -- this is a method of covert channel creation only.

(Perhaps I should not have used the word "hacked [up]" to refer to coding
a mechanism from the RFC2460 specification.)

1) section 4.3: tunnel-related security considerations really apply to
	all four scenarios; while it is less likely that tunnels will
	be used in the other scenarios, it's not impossible.

suggested edit: pull the meat of section 4.3 into the main security
considerations section and make it clearly applicable to any situation
where tunnels are in use.

2) section 2.2: 

	On dual-stack nodes, similar security policy should be applied
	to ipv4 and ipv6 communications; if strict policy is applied
	only to v6 traffic, this will provide no additional security
	(as the node will likely still be vulnerable through the v4
	side).  As a non-security matter, migration to v6 will be
	discouraged if common apps work over v4 but fail over v6.

suggested edit: replace last sentance of 2.2 with:

   Security policy which prevents use of v6 while allowing v4 will
   discourage migration to v6 without significantly improving
   security.  Developers and administrators should make sure that
   global Internet connectivity through either IPv4 or IPv6 is
   restricted to only those applications that are expressly designed
   for global Internet connectivity.

A NAT box could do the following when receiving an IPv6 packet
encapsulated in IPv4 with proto 41:

If IPv6 dst does not belong to the local 6to4 /48 prefix, forward 
internally,
else decapsulate.

Why will will not work?

I agree with what Margaret said in the meeting - if we're going to
recommend behavior to NAT vendors we should recommend that the NATs
implement a v6 router.  Of course if they do that it's pretty simple and
obvious to have that router support a 6to4 interface.

I also agree that this document isn't the right place to put a detailed
recommendation about how to implement v6 in a SOHO v4NAT/v6router box.

So maybe it could be said that nailing up protocol 41 in a v4NAT box is
a temporary measure until the NATs can be upgraded to support v6
routing in the box?

The advantage for plain proto41 forwarding is that you don't have to
decapsulate for it to work - just pass it on :)  The NAT web config
screen can just have a checkbox to forward proto41 and a field to
specify the RFC1918 address to forward it to.

But agreed if the vendor is implementing 6to4, there is no reason why they
couldn't choose to do this.

I wouldn't like to lose the ability to run a tunnel broker client inside my
network (for a host or network broker client) because of 6to4 support on
the router (which I applaud - and I'd be interested to know which vendors
are implementing it... Christian?)

Of course ideally we want IPv6 natively, but...

Absolutely.    We're talking about (SOHO) deployment now.

No, it will not work. The NAT that implements 6to4 will decapsulate all =
packets that it receives as if they were meant for the local 6to4 =
router. If the packets have a "wrong" destination address, it should =
implement the behavior recommended in the 6to4 security recommendations, =
i.e. drop the packet.=20

A NAT box could do the following when receiving an IPv6 packet

If IPv6 dst does not belong to the local 6to4 /48 prefix, forward
internally,
else decapsulate.

Why will will not work?

The consensus in the room was that Jordi's draft should simply document =

from making any recommendation to NAT vendors.

I agree with what Margaret said in the meeting - if we're going to
recommend behavior to NAT vendors we should recommend that the NATs
implement a v6 router.  Of course if they do that it's pretty simple and
obvious to have that router support a 6to4 interface.

I also agree that this document isn't the right place to put a detailed
recommendation about how to implement v6 in a SOHO v4NAT/v6router box.

So maybe it could be said that nailing up protocol 41 in a v4NAT box is
a temporary measure until the NATs can be upgraded to support v6
routing in the box?

I must have missed that consensus call.

I'd like to see a one- or two-sentence recommendation, or some statement
that this is an interim measure.  More than that, I think, would be too
much.

On Windows XP, with IPv6 enabled, if you ask to "share a link", the PC =
will behave as an IPv4 NAT (using ICS) and as a 6to4 router. So I guess =
there is at least one example of "NAT that is also a 6to4 router."

Subject: Re: 6to4 vs forwarding IP proto41 in NAT



The advantage for plain proto41 forwarding is that you don't have to
decapsulate for it to work - just pass it on :)  The NAT web config
screen can just have a checkbox to forward proto41 and a field to
specify the RFC1918 address to forward it to.

But agreed if the vendor is implementing 6to4, there is no reason why =
they
couldn't choose to do this.

I wouldn't like to lose the ability to run a tunnel broker client inside =
my
network (for a host or network broker client) because of 6to4 support on
the router (which I applaud - and I'd be interested to know which =
vendors
are implementing it... Christian?)

Of course ideally we want IPv6 natively, but...

	i (and some others) commented like above, but there was no consensus

I should have said that this was the dominant opinion. There was =
effectively no formal consensus call. Sorry for the confusion.

        i (and some others) commented like above, but there was no =

Hello,
 Forgive me if this is already done: It seems to me that we need to 
have clear recommendations with priorities what solutions are to be 
used. Something like Margaret was saying: native IPv6, then ...

 What also I see that many things are becoming obvious for us, but 
may not be so obvious for the others. So in my opinion it should be 
clearly stated in all transition documents that native IPv6 is the 
best and recommended solution.
 Have a good time in Vienna (or somewhere else :-)),
  Marcin

Hi,

I agree with Itojun, my feeling is that the WG chairs requested me to update the document, and I will do so with the comments from
the WG and any emails that I receive in the next two weeks, more or less.

So please, all, provide your inputs !

Regards,
Jordi

I also strongly second this view.
This discussion is about easying SOHO and HOME deployment, but it seems to
me that the quality involved with using this mechanism might turn users
against IPv6 usage.
The focus should be to:
a) ISPs requesting addresses
b) getting the BGP sessions up and running
c) ISPs going dual-stack on their backbone
d) ISPs extending native IPv6 to their customers "door" (SOHO *and* HOME)


Again -- you All -- have a good time in Vienna.

relative to the suggestion made at the meeting:

I think there are two purposes of this document:

1. to provide feedback to the protocol developers in IETF - are our
existing transition mechanisms adequate?  do we need new ones, or to
tweak existing ones?

2. to provide input to networks considering v6 deployment.

if NANOG/RIPE/APNIC/APRICOT/whomever could be recruited to contribute v6
experiences to this document, that would IMHO be great -  even if a lot
of the work were done outside of IETF.  but we would like to see the
drafts published as Internet-Drafts (even if available in another form)
and the result published as an RFC (even if published elsewhere) so that
IETF people will see the output.

in general I'd like to see more paths for feedback to IETF from the
operators' organizations.

I'm not implementing a service just describing an option to do it. Is a decision of the implementor how it should be.

Well, I guess you shouldn't try to tell the "inventor" and technical responsible of a project what's the project scope. I can tell
you that Euro6IX scope is not ONLY the IXs, but also how they become useful to users, and whatever is needed to foster the
deployment of IPv6. This information is explained in the project documents, publicly available.

I think the text is clear on this point, and again I don't need to consider how to implement the service, just offer a solution to
deploy it.

I'm not specifying the tunnel brokers, and thus no need to indicate what scripts for what OS should be changed. This will be another
document.

No, not all the vendors are going to make the effort and investment in provide native IPv6, and not all the existing hardware
supports it.

The only one that have access to the NAT boxes is the administrator (in most of the scenarios the owner/user = SOHO).

Exactly the same security issues as you already have with any kind of tunnels. So, the mechanism to override the rules are already
here: Any kind of tunnel of VPN.

The question of what kind of filters or firewalls or whatever is deployed in IPv6 networks, isn't the scope of this document.

Hi,

Find below a bit food for thought on designing NAT traversal mechanisms.  
I think it would be useful to consider a bit more on what we NEED.

- Should we send a clear signal to NAT vendors what kind of deployment 
model we think is best, and what are the goals they should try to work 
towards?

- Should we try to leverage existing IPv4 NAT traversal mechanisms if
possible (there seem to be a plenty of them, like STUN, TURN, etc.), and
even avoid all IPv6 work we can?  Would that be of value in itself ("A
particular kind of NAT breaks this IPv_4_ solution we'd like to use to
traverse NATs")?

- What is the expected lifetime of our NAT traversal mechanism
(e.g. a few years, until most NAT vendors have started deploying 6to4 or 
native) ?

- What features are critical for the NAT traversal mechanism?
For example:
  * simplicity (spec and the protocol)
  * ease of use (easy to turn on/configure)
  * interop with NATs (works with all NAT boxes or close enough)
  * robustness (is otherwise failure-proof with few things that could go 
wrong)
  * route optimization (traffic between different IPv6 nodes behind 
NAT's as direct as possible)
  * security (doesn't make unexpected holes, minimizes DoS attacks etc.)

- What are the properties of the solution(s) we would like to use/develop 
considering these issues?   How much work we should we should use on 
mechanisms which are likely to:
 * be quite low in our "preferred solutions list",
 * have a limited lifetime, and hopefully soon replaced by a 
better-working mechanism, 
 * are something other WG's have had to specify as well, and
 * be something we may not even be able to specify implement correctly, 
simply and reliably?

Keith,

It seems to me that 1. and 2. could simply start by an analysis of current
deployed solutions; trying to exhaustively cover the possible situations
that could be a representative subset of real scenarios, to provide some
"howto" is an endless task, and would take so long, that it would probably
not make much sense in the end...also, different ISPs not only have
different sizes, use different technologies, but also have different
purposes in terms of offered services; and, we also have commercial
services and research services...

So, as was also mentioned yesterday at the v6ops meeting, why not simply
change the document to provide an analysis of current scenarios? I'm
pretty sure that it doesn't cost much to some ISPs of different sizes to
provide some input on a draft that somebody could put together...

Ch.,
rute

One thing that is really puzzling me about this draft is: do we really
need this?? There are currently two options that have "more" priority in
terms of implementation, i.e., v6 and 6to4...so why try to create a
document on something that is currently assumed to work, and that is only
used as a "hack", when one of the other two is not working?? Why do we
need a document on this?

This is exactly what I already reflected in the new version of the draft.

I will wait for more inputs before publish it.

true. the thing is that we are not sure if there are any isps that have
deployed fully commercial v6 networks, operated in the same way as their
v4 networks. and even if we could find them it is not sure they would be
able to share the results with us.

The main production deployments now are in the research networks, which have
to be commercial quality, but may not offer all the types of services that
commercial ISPs do.

But v6 is running dual stack in Abilene, GEANT, many European NRENs and
the transatlantic link(s) dual-stack without v6 breaking v4.

But there are many gaps.  Projects such as 6NET are trying to document and
where possible work on these (www.6net.org/publications).

Hi All,

In the first session in Vienna, we had unanimous consensus that the
scenario document produced by the Enterprise Team would serve as a good
starting place for our work, and that we should accept it as a WG draft.

The latest version of this document can be found at:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-pouffary-v6ops-ent-v6net-03.txt

Unless there are any objections from the mailing list,
We'll ask the Enterprise Team to publish the next version
as a WG I-D.

Pekka, Margaret & Bob

Also, there is a lot of commercial deployment in Japan.

Actually, there is such input. it's just a question of asking :-)
(NTT/Verio in the USA, for instance; I believe NTT
in europe also).
I cannot help in terms of commercial services, given that FCCN only
provides non-commercial services. But, even ISPs such as FCCN can gladly
provide input.

Please notice that part of this effor has already been done earlier,
either in the now extinct 6bone, or in some other projects related to v6.
It's just a matter of asking. An analysis is certainly more feasible than
a document trying to cover howtos for different ISPs...

i guess this is something for the isp design team to figure out where and
which questions to ask.

it was asked yesterday in the v6ops meeting and ti looks like, of the isps
present yesterday,  ntt/verio are the only one that have done it on the
scale that is interesting for this exercise. though, it was not clear how
much they will be able to share with us.

other isps that have done it are welcomed to step forward.

What I'd like to see is that people forget this "academic networks are not 
ISPs" model.

Academic networks might not have certain drawbacks ISPs have, but there
are enough similarities in the core network, network management, support
infrastructure, etc. and to some degree, customer access interface to see
that looking at the both are useful, and should not be excluded.

However, there are at least several aspects to ISPs, however, which are
typically not present in academic networks: *typically*, these become
prevalent in the ISPs with DSL/cable/modem etc. access directly to the
large number of customers (not big networks such as universities
themselves).

I think the *easiest* thing is to *first* work on issues which apply to
both academic networks and ISPs, i.e. the ISP backbones, network
management etc.  Of course, other efforts are also welcome if there is
enough energy and interest for them.

I think that I should make some comments on it ... ;-)

First of all, we do not think that we are the only one ;-)  but anyway...

yes, as I said yesterday, we are glad to make comments on the documents
and finishing PD requirement draft ;-), 
I am ready to contribute to the document.

I think that we can not disclose entire our experiences, design policy 
and implementation because we think that should be company secrets,
but at the same time, we think that some part of information and
technology should be shared by all of the world.

Perhaps you should make a reference in your document, that this approach
will lead to manual configurations. It would be nice to have this explicit
-- you are documenting "testbed procedures".

I've read the documents publicly available at the project's site.
That was the reason i did the comment in the first place.

IXs are interconnection points. They have a central role in avoiding
traffic from ISP A to ISP B in city X, from going to city Y.
IXs' issues are lower latency, redundancy, etc... in the end, they will
benefit users, but final users *DONT* connect to IXs.

Your projects' credibility would be significant if AMS-IX, LINX, DECIX and
others (real IXs) were a part of the project...

I can concurr with that. IPv6 deployment (and widespread) depends also
on the capability of ISPs connecting natively to their local IX (and
transit providers connecting to several IXs).

Yes, i've seen those.

What i was trying to query, is your opinion on this being a *bad*
solution or not (considering the roundtrip, complexity, etc...).
In any case, huge number of nodes/networks connected to
tunnel brokers (in reality they are only a few...) should be documented
as a poor solution.

Its some sort of???: "I think IP will run better with 512 bits addresses
-- hey everyone: change all your applications to meet my view!"
I would wish to know more about what is needed on the tunnel brokers
end...

Can you please point me out where i can read that *exactly* on the site?

I cannot find that "commercial side" on the objectives or on the work
plan.

Isn't Euro6IX the EU-research-money fundet project that doesn't permit
connection of any commercial network?

Anyway - besides the research projects, there are already a number of
commercial ISPs in Europe that struggle with implementing a commercial-
grade IPv6 service.  

The problems encountered are what you'd expect - hardware vendor support, 
upstream ISPs that do not support IPv6, NOC people training, etc.

A R&D funded project can never be involved in commercial transit, that's clear.

But we have several ISPs working with the project, and connected to it, that "use" the project to build their networks before going
into commercial, and they can also have trial users (if they aren't charge for the service).

Regards,
Jordi

excelent point...

my 2-cents on this: instead of asking people (read ISPs here...) to come
forward and speak about what they've done, why not simply try to summarise
the aspects that would be interesting to analyse and then, simply send
that list to the mailing-list. This would work as a form, which
then might give rise to an analysis, or to a set of scenarios
that could be covered (again, simply in terms of analysis of what
peoplare are currently doing, and not as a howto).
Possibly, an initial list wouldn't address
issues such as policies that can't be disclosed (thinking in commercial
terms), or other issues that might be a bit controverse. And, this would
also possibly add some interest in something that is still too vague...

Jordi,

I understand the point of your document, but really do not see a place for
it... It's not so much a question of the "mechanism" (it is here; it is
used
sometimes), but really, a question of the purpose of the document.
There has to be a clear purpose (and maybe I'm missing it), otherwise,
we just end up adding more entropy...Can you please answer clearly the
following questions:

1) does the document introduce a *significant* contribution to current
deployment status?
2) if something should be forced to vendors, that should be either ipv6 or
6to4 ;-). Why impose a third option, given that only a subset of scenarios
will *possibly* gain with it ??

And, a bit out of scope in technical terms...out of curiosity, if you
already have an "updated" version of the draft (updated in which sense??),
why didn't you present it yesterday?

thanks,
rute

There are two uses for the document:

1.  To alert people to the (to some obvious) protocol41 "trick" to carry an
    IPv6 tunnel into a NAT network.   This is very handy for early adoptors
    (the IPv6 geeks).    It is not a long-term solution.

2.  To alert NAT vendors to the fact that if they make what should be a
    simple mod to their formware - *if* they are not already supporting IPv6
    in some other way e.g. 6to4 or better - they can enable their geek
    customers to use IPv6 at home.

I think it's a useful informational document, so long as the "trick" is
just seen as an early adoptor/last resort mechanism.

It is a mechanism we use a lot btw.

Rute,

1) I don't think the purpose of the IETF documents/work is only for *significant* contributions to current deployment status, and I
explained this in the yesterday session. The work describes the situation that isn't documented (but used).
2) If the vendors don't want to use native or 6to4, and we don't have a backup option, we miss the chance to help the people to
connect to IPv6 in a way that we know is possible. My survey show that the subset of "scenarios" is big enough to be very relevant.

The update has been done yesterday night, with the inputs received during the meeting, and I will wait some more days for additional
inputs before an "official" publication.

Regards,
Jordi

If it is documented (approved), it might be considered a long-term
solution by some people... because it would classify as an "hack"
documented by the ietf!

And moreover, some ipv6 projects/sites already document this. Euro6ix is
an example.

Again, focusing on "geek customers" will not take IPv6 usage anywhere.
IPv6 deployment (and usage) will only rely on *everybody* using it
(sometimes), without having to know IPv6 is there.

Vendors work based on demand: if you have 5 or 50 geeks sending emails,
they do nothing, if some big enterprise requests it, they will try
to comply promptly.

I completely agree with the sentence above, and that was stated in my
previous mail.

But, Point 2. above says it all: "*if* they are not already supporting
IPv6 in some other way e.g. 6to4 or better..."...

Given that the solution that it's trying to be "imposed" is a temporary
solution, not compatible with the other possible ones, I do not see a
point in creating a document about it. I do understand that it's in use
;-P, but an individual draft about this does not seem really useful, in
my viewpoint. Much less a WG document on this...
Maybe I'm completely wrong here, but again, what I'm
transmitting is that I don't
see the need to document a temporary solution, simply arguing with the
purpose that vendors should give this third option...which is already in
use...there is so much work to be done regarding v6ops, that my fear is
that this document just ends up in simply adding entropy...

Hi,

<chair hat on>

I think the thread:

6to4 vs forwarding IP proto41 in NAT

has degenerated a bit, and I fail to see whether anything constructive can
come of it.  Please consider twice before continuinig posting about the
subject.

I think it should be clear that revising the documentation of the proto41 
forwarding feature is potentially useful -- at least I didn't know such 
feature existed.  Whether such should/could be recommended is another 
issue, but we'll get back to that later when/if that seems appropriate.

please notice that I am not against the solution you are describing. I see
a draft (if within the goals of a WG) as a document that will help all of
"us" somehow. It might open path for future exploration on some issues,
present an analysis, or describe some experimental situation that could
help a significant bunch of people . This is what I mean by a significant
contribution :-). it can be a minor thing, but significant somehow ;-)

Your draft presents a hack/trick (whatever you'd like to name it, but I'm
avoiding the word mechanism) that is a temporary solution; there are two
other possible ways that vendors should follow *before* simply deciding on
following the draft. But, let's look at the hypothetical scenario, where
the trick was imposed, given that by default it was there (what you're
saying above). the only people benefiting from it would be a small subset
of people! So it is here that I really don't see the purpose in creating
another draft ...

thats one solution. the other is what Jordi proposes to get NAT vendors
to support this outside of the PC and plethora of devices in the home.

good.  I could not be there and the mail is confusing me what happened.
this is important work for v6ops and I still think we need to influence
the nat box vendors and isps to use that as one alternative to other
missions in the market.

funny.  I think the exact opposite of this input.  but thats fine.  I
think the below is exactly what should be done.

I turn on my device in my house.  it configures Ipv6.  knows to use
proto 41 with tunnels and it works through my router/dsl box and with my
ISP.  all below must happen.  this way I can Microsoft, Linux, Freebsd,
other UNIX, Symbian, et al on all my devices with basic IPv6 and I avoid
any particular lock-in to any vendor and creates an open market.  I
prefer this and most users I know do too.

because if the nat vendors have guidance to pass through proto 41 and
ISPs will decap IPv6 can be used as tunnel to the outside word for two
IPv6 nodes to communicate using IPv6 all be it with IPv4.  It gives
reason to nat and isps to do init ipv6.  also permits other options and
that is the work of this draft to flush out.  if we don't flush it out
then I agree.  but this also would permit tunnel brokers which I think
are a good idea for home use.  we will learn and expand from pekkas list
he sent from this exercise and why jordis work is important for us as
engineers working on transition to analyze.

also moonv6 will do native ipv6 across the U.S. west to east coasts Oct
2003.
http://www.iol.unh.edu/consortiums/ipv6/grouptest/IDCI/

cannot divulge now ISPs on board to early and not fair.

Moonv6 slides.

If you want to know triva of where moonv6 came from send me private mail

Yes.  We want many options for transition this is investigation and we
do investigation. We are not done yet.

Nothing forces vendors other than the market.  And all users I know do
not only want the two you list.  So we disagree on that base assumption
of the market and users.

we either discuss it here or we go make it standard out of the ietf.  I
think its in the v6ops and ietf interest to keep discussing and see
where this goes.

do you have any technical comment on the spec?

	due to my (lack of) English speaking skill i may not have delivered
	my comment to everyone, so i post it here again.

	with "there's no RA -> consider everything as onlink" portion of
	ND spec, there's ambiguity.  ND spec does not help us decide which
	interface we should use to send packet out.  i agree that ND spec needs
	clarification on this part (drop "everything as onlink" statement,
	clarify which outgoing interface should be used, etc).

	KAME implementation, by default, does not honor "consider everything as
	onlink" rule because of this ambiguity (therefore we won't experience
	the delay).
	if "default outgoing interface" gets configred to KAME kernel with
	ndp(8) command, the rule will be honored (and will experience the delay)

Maybe it's just me but I can't clearly find the threats that remain
once all the clarified and extended rules in section 5 and 6 have
been applied.

Is this what the "fix" column in the table in 5.5.1 is trying to tell me?
It would be useful to flesh that out a bit.

as the spec stands, I cannot comment, simply because for me it does not
make sense... I am waiting for the version that
Jordi says is almost ready and yes, I will comment that one.

In fact, the document could get some editing. We should adopt a =

We also need to agree on some qualification level. We discussed that on =

Maybe it's just me but I can't clearly find the threats that remain

Is this what the "fix" column in the table in 5.5.1 is trying to tell =

It would be useful to flesh that out a bit.

Actually, the reason why we (KAME) disabled the "everything as onlink"
rule by default is the exact concern that the v6-on-by-default draft
points out; delay to fallback to IPv4.  (I'm not saying the ambiguity
on the interface is not an issue, but this is not the reason why we do
not honor the rule.)  In any event, I agree that the rule in RFC2461
should be more clarified or even revised.

=46rom KAME implementation note:

  IPv6 on-link determination rule (RFC2461) is quite different from
  assumptions in BSD IPv4 network code.  To implement the behavior in
  RFC2461 section 6.3.6 (3), the kernel needs to know the default
  outgoing interface.  To configure the default outgoing interface, use
  commands like "ndp -I de0" as root.  Then the kernel will have a
  "default" route to the interface with the cloning "C" bit being on.
  This default route will cause to make a neighbor cache entry for every
  destination that does not match an explicit route entry.

  Note that we intentionally disable configuring the default interface
  by default.  This is because we found it sometimes caused inconvenient
  situation while it was rarely useful in practical usage.  For example,
  consider a destination that has both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses but is
  only reachable via IPv4.  Since our getaddrinfo(3) prefers IPv6 by
  default, an (TCP) application using the library with PF_UNSPEC first
  tries to connect to the IPv6 address.  If we turn on RFC 2461 6.3.6
  (3), we have to wait for quite a long period before the first attempt
  to make a connection fails.  If we turn it off, the first attempt will
  immediately fail with EHOSTUNREACH, and then the application can try
  the next, reachable address.

Thanks for the comment.

Fix refers only to the workarounds presented in section 5.

It is assumed that all the implementations already do about all the
suggested checks described in section 6 (in sect 5 there are basically
only more generic suggestions like applyting iTrace), which is a bit of a
stretch.

This should be stated somewhere, but I'll re-organize the document
slightly to make it easier to understand.

Hi All,

In the second session in Vienna, we had unanimous consensus that an
operational document describing IPv6-on-by-Default scenarios would serve
as a good starting place for our work, and that we should accept it as a
WG draft.

The latest version of this document can be found at:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-roy-v6ops-v6onbydefault-01.txt

Unless there are any objections from the mailing list, We'll ask the
authors to publish the next version as a WG I-D.

I have one more comment on the enterprise draft, related to the base =
scenario section:
I have in mind the concrete case where IPv6 is a solution to reduce the =
complexity one may face when merging a number a network based on the use =
of the same range of private addresses. This correspond to the case of =
large enterprise, for example an insurance company, incorporating number =
of small agencies.
I just wonder if this case, network complexity fix, should be explicitly =
identify as part as a base scenario (typically scenario 2 or even 3).

Alain.

Folks:

Concerning draft-pouffary-v6ops-ent-v6net-04.txt:

First, some general comments:

The draft in its present form is characterized by a strong, if somewhat
skeletal, basic structure, and there exists the bare minimum of connective
tissue required to hold the structure together.  However, there is
precious little muscle on the structure, a complete absence of fat, and
not even a hint of skin, much less proper clothing for a public
presentation. This draft in its present form does not march, and any
attempt to force movement is likely to give rise to a prodigious
clattering of bones and scraping of joints.

The above, and much of what follows herein, proceeds from a presumption
that the IPv6 Enterprise Network Scenarios document, upon completion, will
bet intended to provide guidance to enterprise network teams (as stated in
paragraph 2 of section 1), and to serve as a basis for the companion
analysis and solutions document.

If the above presumption is even remotely accurate, we will need to
provide information beyond the existing text for the use of the enterprise
network team, which team is likely to be comprised of administrative
managers and, in the case of financial services organizations, auditors in
addition to network engineers.  To be a bit less imprecise, it would be
useful to provide text which might indicate to a reasonable administrative
manager (assuming that at least one instance of this mythical beast
actually exists): what we are talking about (couched in a minimum of
jargon); why the manager should care; and why the IETF is presuming to
give an enterprise advice which may very well be perceived as gratuitous.

Notwithstanding the above, much, in fact almost all, of the existing text
is very good indeed.  In particular, the Base Network Scenarios
definitions are complete and sound, as are the example network
descriptions.  In general, section 3.2, Network Scenarios Characteristics,
is well crafted, although there are few nits involving questions framed "A
or B" which can legitimately be answered "Yes" or "Both".


Now, on to specifics.

Concerning base scenarios:   I can foresee a sequence of events wherein a
single hetwork traverses all three scenarios enumerated in the draft, with
the final state being that represented by scenario 3. The most probable
sequence would be 2;1;3. In fact, one of my clients discussed (and
subsequently abandoned) just this sequence, and several others have
muttered darkly about similar sequences.

Concerning example networks: most of my clients operate networks which
exhibit many of the characteristics of all three enumerated examples.  We
should perhaps not assume that most enterprise networks can be neatly
categorized - the range of services supported in commercial enterprise
networks (particularly in financial services networks, where lies most of
my client base) is more extensive than any one of the enumerated example
networks subsumes. For financial services networks, only single-offering
service providers (for example, ATM operations providers) have the luxury
of a single-application network.  That notwithstanding, the three example
networks, if considered in toto, do cover most of the requirements seen in
networks operated by many of my clients. Perhaps we should add some sort
of statement indicating that real-world networks are likely to exhibit
characteristics which overlap more than one of the enumerated examples.

Concerning network infrastructure requirements, the audience may find it
useful to have additional information concerning which subsets of the
enterprise network team may find specific sections of especial interest,
to wit:

For most of my clients, DNS, routing and autoconfiguration issues are left
to the engineering wallahs: there is a default assumption that these
matters will be resolved by the techies well before any transition is
attempted. Security considerations are likewise left to the techies,
subject to approval of the auditors; in practice, this leaves to the
network engineering team the task of educating the auditors concerning
what security mechanisms carry forward from the IPv4 implementation - a
non-trivial task, as the auditors are by nature and by instruction
paranoid. Considerable guidance (preferably from an authoritative source)
will be required before the auditors will be pacified.

Applications issues, for the most part, fall to network engineering;
applications developers don't know, and emphatically don't care, about v6
support. In practice, applications which support only v4 will force
dual-stack support until all such applications reach the end of their
service life and are retired or replaced with entirely new code.
Recommendations concering applications will be most useful if made
specific to new application development; in almost all cases, existing
applications in commercial environments are unlikely to see re-coding for
support of IPv6. Even new applications are unlikely to support v6 absent
an administrative (as distinguished from engineering) requirement for such
support. Guidance in this area will be most effective if directed to
administrative managment, rather than engineering, staff.

For most networks I see on a regular basis, network management issues are
left for resolution by vendors or by the network operations coding team.
In most cases, dual-stack implementations of NM applications will be
required, but a set of solutions which provides for direct management
(preferably on the native transport protocol) of both v4 and v6 nodes will
be required until all nodes in the network become v6 only.  Guidance from
a source authoritative on these matters will be useful to engineering and
administrative managers of the end-user networks.

Address planning is probably the task which affects vital interests of
every subset of the network team, particularly in view of the current
scheme for allocation of IPv6 address space.  Administrative management
will be involved in an attempt to ensure continuous (non-interruptible)
network operations; auditors will be involved in an attempt to ensure
utter and complete independence from any external entity (including, but
not limited to, any one ISP); and network engineering will be involved
because they have to actually make the bloody thing _work_!

I'm not entirely sure how we draw the distinctions between the several
subsets of the enterprise network team, but I think we need to do at least
some explicit targeting of the text (and tell the audience just _who_ are
the targets) for each section, lest the engineering wallahs be faced with
something like this:

admin: "An RFC?  That's engineering stuff - you handle it."

engr:  "yes, but there is information in here you need..."

admin: "Where does it say THAT?"

engr:  "Um, well, there's no explicit specfication beyond 'enterprise
network team'..."

admin: "Well, you read it, and give us a summary."

[engineer slouches away, muttering darkly.]

Now, the comments herein are admittedly very far from comprehensive or
complete.  However, even this rather sketchy set of notes might stimulate
some discussion.  I'll be traveling for the next three weeks or so,
including 12 days incommunicado in the North Atlantic, but I'll try to
follow this note with some additional mutterings when I get back to the
office about mid-August.

That's my $.02 worth ;-)

Regards,

Alan E. Beard

Please do not respond to this mail.  Offline I was asked to make this
clarification. In my mail on proto41 I was speaking of nat boxes.  I
should have said I was specifically speaking of home use cable and adsl
routers that do nat not any other user type or operations.
thanks

Hi Alan,

Thanks for this input.  We will take it to heart for next release.
Thanks so much.
The team will now add meat to the bones that our colleagues in this WG
made it WG item.=20

Two quesitons to you and the working group.=20

First one.  We have gone back and forth on this work and other scenario
works if we should put in an IETF doc why a user of this should care.  I
am amoral on this and will go either way.  So I ask should we explain
why this is important to users in this spec and other specs?

Second question is should we target the audience to be the manager,
admin, and engineer or just one of them.  My view is mostly the admin
but enough that the engineer knows to go look at the solutions/analysis
follow on document to the Enterprise scenarios. =20

thanks
/jim

I think it would be useful for the IETF to try write up something which
shows the path to IPv6 for small and home networks. Without this
we have this collection of mechanisms and the danger that some
are told "implement 6to4" and others are told "implement proto 41"
when in fact what we really want is native IPv6 where the NAT becomes
a leaf IPv6 router with prefix delegation etc.

Currently there is a danger that the various short term approxes overshadow
the final goal which would be bad.

My opinion is that when the endpoint is IPv4 the best general approach is to
use the IPv4 NAT (by having the IPv6 nodes really being dual-stacked with a
private IPv4 address). That way the above techniques can be used, with all
their benefits and downsides, without writing one extra line of code.

Thus the key thing v6ops needs to worry about in this space is the 
case when the endpoint is IPv6 but
there exists some IPv6-unaware IPv4 NAT box in the path.
Being able to construct some form of IPv6 tunnel over that NAT box
would allow e2e IPv6 communication.

The v6overNAT would naturally go away once the NAT box is v6 aware, whether
using native or 6to4.

>   * security (doesn't make unexpected holes, minimizes DoS attacks etc.)

My list includes simplicity, robustness and security.
I understand the desire to optimize things, but I'm concerned about
sending the signal that v6overNAT is the new Internet when in fact
we want the new Internet to be IPv6. Thus wanting the v6overNAT solution to
be good enough to be confused with native IPv6 would make sense
if we don't want the users to know the difference but this implies
that the users will never know to ask for native IPv6 from the ISP.
The alterantive would be to send the message that v6overNAT is a temporary
measure to provide global addressability, but that ISP support of
native IPv6 is needed to get better performance.

I'm not surprised that different participants make different
tradeoffs on this point. Perhaps we should try to discuss this
tradeoff explicitly instead of discussing it implicitly when talking 
about some proposed mechanism.

Hi,

I've looked a bit into 3GPP Analysis document, and I'll be sending out 
issues I found out separated in different messages, a day or so apart.  

<chair hat on>
Whether they should be filed in an issue tracker (like
Roundup), a web page, etc. is up to the 3GPP design team, and especially 
the editor.
</chair hat off>

editorial
---------

    This document analyzes the transition scenarios in 3GPP packet
    data networks that might come up in the deployment phase of IPv6.
    The transition scenarios are documented in [3GPP-SCEN] and this
    document will further analyze them. The scenarios are divided into
    two categories: GPRS scenarios and IMS scenarios.

==> first use of "IMS", so spell it out.

 1.1 Scope of this Document
                                                                                                       
    The scope of this informational document is to analyze and solve
    the possible transition scenarios in the 3GPP defined GPRS network
 
==> note that the category will be BCP, so perhaps it's better to 
substitute s/informational/Best Current Practices/, or even "informational 
Best Current Practices/, as you prefer considering the audience (i.e. 
whether they're aware of what BCP really means)

   where a UE connects to, or is contacted from the Internet, or

==> s/from/from,/, s/Internet,/Internet/ ?

    of the SIP based IP Multimedia Core Network Subsystem (IMS). This
    document is not focused on radio interface issues; both 3GPP Second

 1.2 Abbreviations
                                                                                                       
==> I note that SGSN, HLR and DNS (at least) are not listed.  At least the 
first two should be added.

 1.3 Terminology
                                                                                                       
    Dual Stack UE  Dual Stack UE is a 3GPP mobile handset having dual
                   stack implemented. It is capable of activating
                   both IPv4 and IPv6 PDP contexts. Dual stack UE may
                   be capable of tunneling.
  
==> there is a slight circular definition here, "DS UE is something with 
dual stack".  Maybe some rewording would be needed?  Not a major issue.

    This chapter briefly introduces some transition mechanisms
    specified by the IETF. Applicability of different transition
    mechanisms to 3GPP networks is discussed in chapters 3 and 4.
                                                                                                       
==> s/Applicability/The applicability/ ?

    The following scenarios described by [3GPP-SCEN] are analyzed here.
    In all of the scenarios, the UE is part of a network where there is
    at least one router of the same IP version, i.e. GGSN, and it is
    connecting to a node in a different network.

==> s/it is/the UE is/

    In this scenario, the dual stack UE is capable of communicating
    with both IPv4 and IPv6 nodes. It is recommended to activate an
    IPv6 PDP context when communicating with an IPv6 peer node and an
 
==> spell out PDP.

    However, the UE may attach to a 3GPP network, in which the SGSN
    (Serving GPRS Support Node), the GGSN and the HLR (Home Location
    Register) support IPv4 PDP contexts by default,

==> change the order of term and abbreviation:
Serving GPRPS Support Node (SGSN), Home Location Register (HLR) 

   One deployment scenario example is using laptop computer and a UMTS
    UE as a modem.

==> s/laptop/a laptop/
==> I don't think UE is a modulator/demodulator  and calling it a modem 
may be a bit confusing ?

    When analyzing a dual stack UE behavior, an application running on
    a UE can identify whether the endpoint required is an IPv4 or IPv6
    capable node by examining the address to discover what address
    family category it falls into. 

==> reword "application": typically, this function is performed at a lower 
layer (operating system, IP stack), and the use of applciation gives IMHO 
the wrong picture that the applications themselves would have to somehow 
distinguish the end-point address family.

==> s/category//

               Since the UE is capable of native communication
    with both protocols, one of the main concerns of an operator is
    correct address space and routing management.

==> s/correct/the correct/ ?

    Keeping the Internet name space unfragmented is another important
    issue for both IPv4 and IPv6. It means that any record in the
    public Internet should be available unmodified to any nodes, IPv4
    or IPv6, regardless of the transport being used.

   "6to4" nodes use special IPv6 addresses with a "6to4" prefix

 3.3 IPv4 UE Connecting to an IPv4 Node through an IPv6 Network
                                                                                                       
    3GPP networks are expected to support both IPv4 and IPv6 for a long
    time, on the UE-GGSN link and between the GGSN and external
    networks. For this scenario it is useful to split the end-to-end
    IPv4 UE to IPv4 node communication into UE-to-GGSN and GGSN-to-
    v4NODE. An IPv6-capable GGSN is expected to support both IPv6 and
    IPv4 UEs. Therefore an IPv4-only UE will be able to use an IPv4
    link (PDP context) to connect to the GGSN without the need to
    communicate over an IPv6 network. Regarding the GGSN-to-v4NODE
    communication, typically the transport network between the GGSN and
    external networks will support only IPv4 in the early stages and
    migrate to dual stack, since these networks are already deployed.
    Therefore it is not envisaged that tunneling of IPv4 in IPv6 will
    be required from the GGSN to external IPv4 networks either. In the
    longer run, 3GPP operators may need to phase out IPv4 UEs and the
    IPv4 transport network. This would leave only IPv6 UEs. Therefore,
    overall, the transition scenario involving an IPv4 UE communicating
    with an IPv4 peer through an IPv6 network is not considered very
    likely in 3GPP networks.

==> the paragraph is too long and should be reorganized slightly so that 
it can be split to two or more paragraphs.

    However, since it is difficult to anticipate all possible
    applications, there is a need for translators that can translate

       3. Problems with source address selection due to the inclusion of
         a DNS ALG on the same node [NATPT-DNS].

==> start these with "There are ..."

    Furthermore, high reliability is expected for 3GPP networks.
    Consequently, a single point of failure on the GGSN external
    interface, would raise concerns on the overall network reliability.

    The legacy IPv4 nodes are mostly nodes that support the

    applications. As these application are designed for IPv6, and to
    use the advantages of newer platforms,

==> s/application/applications/

   Taking the above into account, the traffic to and from the legacy
    IPv4 UE is restricted to a few applications. These applications
    already today mostly rely on proxies or local servers to
    communicate between private address space networks and the
    Internet.

==> remove "today" from "already today mostly rely" (too complex otherwise 
:-)

 4. IMS Transition Scenarios
                                                                                                       
    As the IMS is exclusively IPv6, the number of possible transition
    scenarios is reduced dramatically. In the following, the possible
    transition scenarios are listed.

==> reword: (or something to the effect).

    As the IMS is exclusively IPv6, the number of possible transition
    scenarios is reduced dramatically and are listed below.
                                         
    The recommended approach (as documented in [DNStrans]) currently is
    that every recursive DNS server should be either IPv4-only or dual

==> s/currently is/is currently/ ?

    stack and every single DNS zone should be served by at least an
    IPv4 reachable DNS server. The recommendation rules out IPv6-only
 
==> s/an/one/

    There will probably be few legacy IPv4 nodes in the Internet that
    will communicate with the IMS UEs. It is assumed that the solution
    described here is used for limited cases, in which communications
    with a small number of legacy IPv4 SIP equipment are needed.

==> did you really mean "few" (like, "hardly any"), or "a few" ?

   Figure 1 shows a possible configuration scenario where the SIP ALG
    is separate to the CSCFs.

==> s/separate to/separated from/ (or something else, I'm not sure what 
the text is intended to mean) ?

    The authors notify that work is being done on analyzing 3GPP
    IPv4/IPv6 translators related to IMS scenario 1, and a personal
    draft is expected shortly.

==> note that the IMS scenario 1 is really *this* scenario, should this be

 Hi, Pekka!=20

Many thanks for your comments, some comments below

Whether they should be filed in an issue tracker (like

    This document analyzes the transition scenarios in 3GPP packet
    data networks that might come up in the deployment phase of IPv6.
    The transition scenarios are documented in [3GPP-SCEN] and this
    document will further analyze them. The scenarios are divided into
    two categories: GPRS scenarios and IMS scenarios.

=3D=3D> first use of "IMS", so spell it out.

JW: Yep.

 1.1 Scope of this Document
                                                                         =

and so is DNS also. I will add all three, and check the doc through for
any other missing abbreviations.

 1.3 Terminology
                                                                         =

    Dual Stack UE  Dual Stack UE is a 3GPP mobile handset having dual
                   stack implemented. It is capable of activating
                   both IPv4 and IPv6 PDP contexts. Dual stack UE may
                   be capable of tunneling.
 =20
=3D=3D> there is a slight circular definition here, "DS UE is something =
with=20
dual stack".  Maybe some rewording would be needed?  Not a major issue.

JW: Yep, dual stack has dual stack... I'll make some rewording, such as
the UE has both IPv4 and IPv6 stacks.

    This chapter briefly introduces some transition mechanisms
    specified by the IETF. Applicability of different transition
    mechanisms to 3GPP networks is discussed in chapters 3 and 4.
                                                                         =
                             =20
=3D=3D> s/Applicability/The applicability/ ?

JW: That can be correct...

    The following scenarios described by [3GPP-SCEN] are analyzed here.
    In all of the scenarios, the UE is part of a network where there is
    at least one router of the same IP version, i.e. GGSN, and it is
    connecting to a node in a different network.

=3D=3D> s/it is/the UE is/

JW: got it.

    In this scenario, the dual stack UE is capable of communicating
    with both IPv4 and IPv6 nodes. It is recommended to activate an
    IPv6 PDP context when communicating with an IPv6 peer node and an
=20
=3D=3D> spell out PDP.

JW: PDP context needs to be spelled out. I will do it already in section =
2.1 or even in 1.3.

    However, the UE may attach to a 3GPP network, in which the SGSN
    (Serving GPRS Support Node), the GGSN and the HLR (Home Location
    Register) support IPv4 PDP contexts by default,

=3D=3D> change the order of term and abbreviation:
Serving GPRPS Support Node (SGSN), Home Location Register (HLR)=20

JW: You mean alphabetical order? Anyway, I would like to list the
network elements in a more logical order, according to their =
functionalities.

   One deployment scenario example is using laptop computer and a UMTS
    UE as a modem.

=3D=3D> s/laptop/a laptop/
=3D=3D> I don't think UE is a modulator/demodulator  and calling it a =
modem=20
may be a bit confusing ?

JW: 1. ok, 2. That is the common language used, e.g. GPRS phones are =
shown
as modems and AT commands are used for contorl. Another term we could=20
use is dial-up (emulation).

    When analyzing a dual stack UE behavior, an application running on
    a UE can identify whether the endpoint required is an IPv4 or IPv6
    capable node by examining the address to discover what address
    family category it falls into.=20

=3D=3D> reword "application": typically, this function is performed at a =
lower=20
layer (operating system, IP stack), and the use of applciation gives =
IMHO=20
the wrong picture that the applications themselves would have to somehow =

distinguish the end-point address family.

JW: Hmm, some applications can participate in that decision making?=20
But what kind of rewording would you suggest?

=3D=3D> s/category//

JW: got it.

               Since the UE is capable of native communication
    with both protocols, one of the main concerns of an operator is
    correct address space and routing management.

=3D=3D> s/correct/the correct/ ?

JW: ok

    Keeping the Internet name space unfragmented is another important
    issue for both IPv4 and IPv6. It means that any record in the
    public Internet should be available unmodified to any nodes, IPv4
    or IPv6, regardless of the transport being used.

=3D=3D> s/any record/any DNS record/ (maybe even spell out DNS)

JW: DNS record sounds good.

   served by at least an IPv4 reachable DNS server. This

JW: yup.

    be used. In a 3GPP network, one IPv6 island could contain the GGSN
    while another island contains the operator's IPv6 application
    servers. However, manually configured tunnels can be an
=20
=3D=3D> s/contains/could contain/

JW: I would put "can contain" to both.

   "6to4" nodes use special IPv6 addresses with a "6to4" prefix
    containing the IPv4 address of the corresponding "IPv6 in IPv4"
    tunnel endpoint ("6to4" router) which performs encapsulation /
    decapsulation. When connecting two nodes with "6to4" addresses, the
=20
=3D=3D> s/"6to4"/6to4/ (could explain it the first time 6to4 is stated =
if=20
necessary)

JW: Yep, actually those quotation marks are not needed, I will spell out =
6to4
when it pops up for the first time.

 3.3 IPv4 UE Connecting to an IPv4 Node through an IPv6 Network
                                                                         =
                             =20
    3GPP networks are expected to support both IPv4 and IPv6 for a long
    time, on the UE-GGSN link and between the GGSN and external
    networks. For this scenario it is useful to split the end-to-end
    IPv4 UE to IPv4 node communication into UE-to-GGSN and GGSN-to-
    v4NODE. An IPv6-capable GGSN is expected to support both IPv6 and
    IPv4 UEs. Therefore an IPv4-only UE will be able to use an IPv4
    link (PDP context) to connect to the GGSN without the need to
    communicate over an IPv6 network. Regarding the GGSN-to-v4NODE
    communication, typically the transport network between the GGSN and
    external networks will support only IPv4 in the early stages and
    migrate to dual stack, since these networks are already deployed.
    Therefore it is not envisaged that tunneling of IPv4 in IPv6 will
    be required from the GGSN to external IPv4 networks either. In the
    longer run, 3GPP operators may need to phase out IPv4 UEs and the
    IPv4 transport network. This would leave only IPv6 UEs. Therefore,
    overall, the transition scenario involving an IPv4 UE communicating
    with an IPv4 peer through an IPv6 network is not considered very
    likely in 3GPP networks.

=3D=3D> the paragraph is too long and should be reorganized slightly so =
that=20
it can be split to two or more paragraphs.

JW:  The paragraph is not that long, but because it is the
whole section, I'll do it.

    However, since it is difficult to anticipate all possible
    applications, there is a need for translators that can translate
=20
=3D=3D> s/all/all the/

JW: ok

       2. Additional forwarding delays due to further processing, when
         compared to normal IP forwarding.
                                                                         =
                             =20
       3. Problems with source address selection due to the inclusion of
         a DNS ALG on the same node [NATPT-DNS].

=3D=3D> start these with "There are ..."

JW: fine for me. However, parts of that text may be removed once
we can refer to NAT-PT appl- statement doc.

    Furthermore, high reliability is expected for 3GPP networks.
    Consequently, a single point of failure on the GGSN external
    interface, would raise concerns on the overall network reliability.

=3D=3D> s/interface,/interface/

JW: ok

    The legacy IPv4 nodes are mostly nodes that support the
    applications that are popular today in the IPv4 Internet: mostly e-
    mail, and web-browsing.

=3D=3D> s/mail,/mail/

JW: ok

    applications. As these application are designed for IPv6, and to
    use the advantages of newer platforms,

=3D=3D> s/application/applications/

JW: good point.

   Taking the above into account, the traffic to and from the legacy
    IPv4 UE is restricted to a few applications. These applications
    already today mostly rely on proxies or local servers to
    communicate between private address space networks and the
    Internet.

=3D=3D> remove "today" from "already today mostly rely" (too complex =
otherwise=20
:-)

JW: OK, this is not an EU directive document, will do something to it.

 4. IMS Transition Scenarios
                                                                         =
                             =20
    As the IMS is exclusively IPv6, the number of possible transition
    scenarios is reduced dramatically. In the following, the possible
    transition scenarios are listed.

=3D=3D> reword: (or something to the effect).

JW: I try to do something.

    As the IMS is exclusively IPv6, the number of possible transition
    scenarios is reduced dramatically and are listed below.
                                        =20
    The recommended approach (as documented in [DNStrans]) currently is
    that every recursive DNS server should be either IPv4-only or dual

=3D=3D> s/currently is/is currently/ ?

JW: I'd keep the order as it is.

    stack and every single DNS zone should be served by at least an
    IPv4 reachable DNS server. The recommendation rules out IPv6-only
=20
=3D=3D> s/an/one/

JW: got it

    There will probably be few legacy IPv4 nodes in the Internet that
    will communicate with the IMS UEs. It is assumed that the solution
    described here is used for limited cases, in which communications
    with a small number of legacy IPv4 SIP equipment are needed.

=3D=3D> did you really mean "few" (like, "hardly any"), or "a few" ?

JW: Our intention was to say, that the number of legacy IPv4 SIP
nodes that need to communicate with IMS UEs probably is (really) small, =
so
few is correct.

   Figure 1 shows a possible configuration scenario where the SIP ALG
    is separate to the CSCFs.

=3D=3D> s/separate to/separated from/ (or something else, I'm not sure =
what=20
the text is intended to mean) ?

JW: At least "separated from" sounds good. I don't actually know whether =

"separate to" is incorrect..?

    The authors notify that work is being done on analyzing 3GPP
    IPv4/IPv6 translators related to IMS scenario 1, and a personal
    draft is expected shortly.

=3D=3D> note that the IMS scenario 1 is really *this* scenario, should =
this be=20
reworded?

JW: I will reword that anyway and tell about Karim's draft.

 7. Copyright

                             =20
=3D=3D> please also add the IPR section

JW: Yep, can add that, even though we don't have any IPRs on this doc.
Is it a needed section in every draft / RFC?

 8. References

Hi,

This is my second issue in the 3GPP analysis document.

----

Section 3.4 (see the text below), "IPv6 UE Connecting to an IPv4 Node",
describes the common case of IPv6-only UE connecting to an IPv4 node.  
The technique specified is NAT-PT, and the text includes some words of
NAT-PT applicability as well as a reference to NAT64.

I believe this approach is not a good one, as here NAT-PT (or something 
like that) is used as a general purpose translation device for all kinds 
of traffic.

I think we need to figure out whether this is really necessary or 
acceptable.

My personal belief is that we consider the model:
 - Use IPv4 where appropriate, 
 - Not deploy IPv6-only UE's if they have a need to reach IPv4 services, and
 - Use application proxies (such as HTTP gateways, maybe even TCP/UDP 
relays specific to an application) where appropriate to make it easier to 
go for IPv6-only UE's at some point if it's the way to go.

Other thoughts?

---- cut -----
 3.4 IPv6 UE Connecting to an IPv4 Node
                                                                                                       
    IPv6 nodes can communicate with IPv4 hosts by making use of a
    translator (SIIT [RFC2765], NAT-PT [RFC2766]) within the local
    network. For some applications, application proxies can be
    appropriate (e.g. HTTP, email relays, etc.). Such applications will
    not be transparent to the UE. Hence, a flexible mechanism with
    minimal manual intervention should be used to configure these
    proxies on IPv6 UEs. Within the 3GPP architecture, application
    proxies can be placed on the GGSN external interface (Gi), or
    inside the service network.

    However, since it is difficult to anticipate all possible
    applications, there is a need for translators that can translate
    headers independent of the type of application being used.
                                                                                                       
    Due to the significant lack of IPv4 addresses in some domains, port
    multiplexing is likely to be a necessary feature for translators
    (i.e. NAPT-PT).
                                                                                                       
    When NA(P)T-PT is used, it needs to be placed on the GGSN external
    (Gi) interface, typically separate from the GGSN. NA(P)T-PT can be
    installed, for example, on the edge of the operator's network and
    the public Internet. NA(P)T-PT will intercept DNS requests and
    other applications that include IP addresses in their payloads,
    translate the IP header (and payload for some applications if
    necessary) and forward packets through its IPv4 interface.
                                                                                                       
    NA(P)T-PT introduces limitations that are expected to be magnified
    within the 3GPP architecture. Some of these limitations are listed
    below (notice that some of them are also relevant for IPv4 NAT). We
    note here that [v4v6trans] analyzes the issues when translating
    between IPv4 and IPv6. However, the NAT-PT issues should be clearly
    documented in an RFC in the v6ops Working Group and a decision
    should be made, whether revisiting the NAT-PT RFC is necessary /
    what kind of update is needed.

       1. NA(P)T-PT is a single point of failure for all ongoing
         connections.
                                                                                                       
       2. Additional forwarding delays due to further processing, when
         compared to normal IP forwarding.
                                                                                                       
       3. Problems with source address selection due to the inclusion of
         a DNS ALG on the same node [NATPT-DNS].
                                                                                                       
       4. NA(P)T-PT does not work (without application level gateways)
         for applications that embed  IP addresses in their payload.
                                                                                                       
       5. NA(P)T-PT breaks DNSSEC.
                                                                                                       
       6. NA(P)T-PT does not scale very well in large networks.
                                                                                                       
    3GPP networks are expected to handle a very large number of
    subscribers on a single GGSN (default router). Each GGSN is
    expected to handle hundreds of thousands of connections.
    Furthermore, high reliability is expected for 3GPP networks.
    Consequently, a single point of failure on the GGSN external
    interface, would raise concerns on the overall network reliability.
    In addition, IPv6 users are expected to use delay-sensitive
    applications provided by IMS. Hence, there is a need to minimize
    forwarding delays within the IP backbone. Furthermore, due to the
    unprecedented number of connections handled by the default routers
    (GGSN) in 3GPP networks, a network design that forces traffic to go
    through a single node at the edge of the network (typical NA(P)T-PT
    configuration) is not likely to scale. Translation mechanisms
    should allow for multiple translators, for load sharing and
    redundancy purposes.
                                                                                                       
    To minimize the problems associated with NA(P)T-PT, the following
    actions can be recommended:
                                                                                                       
         1. Separate the DNS ALG from the NA(P)T-PT node (in the "IPv6
            to IPv4" case).
                                                                                                       
         2. Ensure (if possible) that NA(P)T-PT does not become a
            single point of failure.
                                                                                                       
         3. Allow for load sharing between different translators. That
            is, it should be possible for different connections to go
            through different translators. Note that load sharing alone
            does not prevent NA(P)T-PT from becoming a single point of
            failure.

    There are some ways to fix the problems with NA(P)T-PT, one
    suggestion is [NAT64].
                                                                                                       
    When thinking the DNS issues, the IPv6 UE needs to find the IPv4
    address in the DNS [DNStrans]. Note that DNSSEC is broken if
    NA(P)T-PT is used.

Hi,

This is the second issue for today; because it's heavily interconnected 
with the first bullet, I'm posting it at the same time.

------

If the approach "use of NAT-PT in IPv6 UE -> IPv4 node" is accepted (and 
maybe even if not), I'd also modify section 2.3 slightly:

 1) the "Translators are typically needed" sounds too strong, and
                                                                               
 2) "two communicating nodes" does not address the peer-to-peer or other
non-client-server applications, so generalize the text to say just 
"communicating nodes"

------                                                                                                       
 2.3 Protocol Translators

    A translator can be defined as an intermediate component between a
    native IPv4 node and a native IPv6 node to enable direct
    communication between them without requiring any modifications to
    the end nodes.
                                                                                                       
    Header conversion is a translation mechanism. In header conversion,
    IPv6 packet headers are converted to IPv4 packet headers, or vice
    versa, and checksums are adjusted or recalculated if necessary.
    NAT-PT (Network Address Translator / Protocol Translator) [RFC2766]
    using SIIT [RFC2765] is an example of such a mechanism.

    Translators are typically needed when the two communicating nodes
    do not share the same IP version. Translation can actually happen
    at Layer 3 (using NAT-like techniques), Layer 4 (using a TCP/UDP
    proxy) or Layer 7 (using application relays).
                                                                                                       
modify the last paragraph to (for example):
                                                                                                       
    Translators may be needed in some cases when the communicating nodes
    do not share the same IP version. Translation can actually happen
    at Layer 3 (using NAT-like techniques), Layer 4 (using a TCP/UDP
    proxy) or Layer 7 (using application relays).

In draft-elmalki-v6ops ... which was presented in Vienna, 
we explained the case for NAT-PT. Basically, unlike ethernet, 
a "3GPP link" cannot be dual stacked. A UE can certainly be 
dual stacked, but a "link" (PDP context) can only run either
V4 or V6 but _not_ both. 
So, despite having a dual stack UE, you might only 
have one PDP context that supports v6 for example. To avoid
the cost of setting up another PDP context, a UE may continue
to use v6. For more details on the cost of setting up
a PDP context see draft-elmalki.

The other reason is IMS which mandates IPv6 for signalling 
and media.

=> The rest of the sentence is needed though "when two communicating
nodes have different IP stacks". Note that this does not
imply that they don't implement both stacks, it just
means that in the context of a certain communication
scenario, they appear to be single-stacked. See my
other response to your first issue (re PDP context).

=> I don't have a strong opinion on this but
a reader might ask "what do you do in the other cases?"
Because you use "some" above after assuming two
nodes with different IP stacks.

Actually, I think maybe we should not associate
translation with ALGs, after all, they don't actually
translate.

Use another PDP context for IPv4.  (Which is what I tried to advocate..)

I fail to see anything convincing there;
 - PDP contexts require state in the 3GPP network, and
 - PDP context require radio signalling or a channel

Lots of things require state in the network, including any kind of 
protocol translator.  Protocol translators mitigate the need for radio 
channels, and this is likely to be a problem only in the short term, when 
the number of radio signalling/channels is not a problem (a small number 
of customers).

I thought draft-elmalki was primarily focused on solving the IMS 
signalling problem -- which seems strictly separate from this "NAT-PT for 
general consumption" approach, and needs to be settled when we figure out 
which way to go in the IMS Scenario 1.

=> I don't understand the above statement. There is no

a context and the number of customers.

=> They are tightly coupled. The draft first makes 
the case for NAT-PT and then goes into how IMS would
use it. If IMS requires translation anyway, NAT-PT
will be used. Everything is running in the same
network.

If this is a worry, we could expand it a bit, maybe like:

    Translators may be needed in some cases when the communicating nodes
    do not share the same IP version; in others, it may be possible to 
    avoid such communication altogether. Translation can actually happen
    at Layer 3 (using NAT-like techniques), Layer 4 (using a TCP/UDP
    proxy) or Layer 7 (using application relays).
 
(or just remove "in some cases", it's not really a problem for me.)

If we'd do this, the above would hold without modifications.  I'm not sure
whether having proxies and such under translators is too big a stretch or
not (when you consider it from the end-to-end point of view, they
certainly do something..).  Removing it from here would certainly require
some new text and shift balances around quite a bit.

These need to be spelled out properly so we can make reasonable decisions.

This is very much related.  If you, using e.g. IPv6 proxies, make it so
that you basically never need IPv4, the time and resources consumed for
IPv4 in the network is much smaller.

There is.  draft-elmalki-* seems to give an impression that the absolute
number of state (for all users combined) is too much -- and my immediate
reaction to that is that by reducing the amount of concurrent state the
problem could be handled.

This also helps to a lesser extent wrt. time consumed to setup contexts
(if there are free resources == few customers in the network, you can set
up contexts pre-emptively).

Disagree.

If IMS requires translation, we may end up designing a translation which
suits IMS.  The previous sections don't indicate which translation will be
used for IMS, or that if IMS uses translation, the translation would also
be used in *any* other kind scenario.

Hi,

>  2.3 Protocol Translators
I hope that this wasn't already addressed: wouldn't it be good to
mention Transport Relay Translators (TRT) (RFC 3142) here and in "3.4
IPv6 UE Connecting to an IPv4 Node"? Though I'm really not a fan of
NA(P)T-PT and similar, I really think that TRT is much more well-behaved
in terms of connection failures than NA(P)T-PT because of its way of
handling ICMP. So I personally think that it would fit into this context
quite nicely. Of course it still has many problems in common with
NA(P)T-PT when it comes to translating certain protocols.

Cheers,
Christian

=> But what's the relevance of this to radio channels? 
There is one physical network that supports an aggregate
(X) amount of traffic, whether it's v4 or v6. 

My comment was related to the time it takes to setup the context 
and the resources consumed in the SGSN and GGSN.

=> I read your comment to mean that the number of radio
channels is not important when there is a small number
of users. That's what I couldn't parse.

Certainly the no of PDP contexts does matter and is part
of a GGSN spec (how many it can handle).

=> I've lost you here, how do you make the decision
that there are few customers in the network? How
does the UE know that?

=> What types of translation are there? We need IP
address and port translation, hence NAPT-PT. The
draft discusses how to install the translation
state in the translator (i.e. installing it before 
traffic goes through the translator).

=> It doesn't, but how can you restrict
that in an IETF spec? If a UE doesn't get an IPv4 context, 
it will go through the translator.

The text in elmalki draft seems to suggest that there a UE with only v6 
PDP context requires one radio channel, while a UE with v4/v6 PDP contexts 
require two radio channels (regardless of the fact that the aggregate 
bandwidth usage is the same).

I don't know the radio technology well enough to to say whether this 
perception is true or not.

I don't know what (if any) signalling there is between the UE and the
network where some hints about network utilization could be piggybacked.  
Probably a lot.

But even if there wasn't any, the first UE's could be programmed to open
both PDP contexts when they start, and possibly discard the other one if
it is not used in X minutes (or even keep it, no matter).

No.

Yes, but for a very specific purpose only.

Please, we're discussing the 3GPP solutions document.  We as the WG can do
it any way we see fit.  Hopefully the solutions are reasonable though.  
If operators or vendors want to do something else, that's their problem
and fine too.

We should not write the document based on what people think might happen,
but what we think *should* happen (but necessarily won't especially in all
cases).

=> You're making assumptions about product rollouts and deployment
that are not necessarily correct. To be precise, you're assuming
that UE's will come in phases: "First UE's", seconds ...etc and
that they are synched with different scales of deployment.
This is not the case. Second, you assume that early networks
will be underutilised. This is also not necessarily a general
rule and depends on each operator.

=> The draft discusses a specific case, it doesn't
_design_ a new translator for it. It discussed
the use of the existing translator.

=> What _should_ happen IMHO is that we explain how
the technology would apply to 3GPP, specify pros and
cons to our knowledge and stop right there. It is futile
to try to restrict something without having a protocol
fail if you attempt to do that restricted action. 
At least this is the aim of the existing keywords in 
RFC 2119.

overall
	"this problem has been fixed..." to state that there's IPv6 variant
	available for the document looks strange to me.

line 250
	wrong: STD 44/RFC 891 in Section 3.44
	right: STD 44/RFC 891 in Section 3.1.17
line 274 (3.1.1)
	why this document suggests updates to RFC1812 to include IPv6 routing
	requirement, while suggesting separate IPv6 variant for RFC1122?
	not sure which is the right way to go.
line 280 (3.1.3)
	these "has been updated" statement look strange to me.  how about:

	RFC791 defines IPv4.  RFC2460 defines IPv6.
	Similarly to RFC922 which defines IPv4 addressing architecture,
	RFC2373 defines IPv6 addressing architecture.
	RFC792 defines ICMP for IPv4.  RFC2463 defines ICMPv6, which is ICMP
	for IPv6.
	RFC1122 defines IGMP, Internet Group Management Protocol for IPv4.
	RFC2710 defines MLD, Multicast Listener Discovery, which is basically
	IGMP for IPv6.
line 303 (3.1.6)
	which document deprecates the use of literal IP address?  RFC2822 still
	has domain-literal syntax, i.e. itojun@[10.1.1.1].
line 335 (3.1.13)
	how about:
	RFC2467 defines a method for the transmission IPv6 over FDDI networks.

Well, it's good (IMHO) for one purpose, explicitly stating that the 
problem no longer exists.  That is, if you just say "RFC X defines Foo2, 
which is Foo for IPv6", it is not clear whether RFC X and Foo2 provide all 
the features the original Foo did.  Saying it fixes the problem is a bit 
awkward but OK.  However, I'm not sure if Phil actually analyzed whether 
the same functions are being provided..

That said, I think something like "RFC2080 defines RIPng, RIP for IPv6." 
is slightly better, editorial-wise.  

I could go either way, but I'd like to try to avoid a lot of (editorial)
extra work for our editors if it doesn't have an acceptable cost/benefit
ratio.

Other thoughts?

Responding to a few comments only which might possibly warrant more 
discussion.

Yes, I agree with that.  I think it should say that router reqs for v6 
should be defined.

Very good point.  I also thought it was done in 2822 but it seems it only 
removed certain older versions.  Something to bring up to the apps folks, 
but I think there's already a person looking into these.

I don't know bootp in particular, but I'd bet DHCPv6 provides enough of 
options to provide for bootp functionality.  Do you have some particular 
options in mind?  DHCPv4 certainly has quite a bit more of them than 
DHCPv6, though.

True.

The first issue of today.

--8<--

In the document, the use of 6to4 is mentioned several times.  However, 
this method needs some scoping: IMHO, it is clear that 6to4 is not a 
useful approach for ISP-like networks, so it is not useful to recommend 
that 3GPP networks use it for example for Internet connectivity.  It is 
just so much easier to get a configured tunnel or native IPv6 from the 
upstream providers.  You just can't build a service like 3GPP networks 
intend to using 6to4; for some internal piloting, etc. it may be possible, 
yes, but that's mostly outside of the scope of the document (but could be 
mentioned for completeness if enough folks feel like it).

The text in the document is already healthily skeptical of 6to4's 
usefulness in this context, but I fail to see:

 - clear need for the existance of 6to4 here at all, and
 - sufficiently clear disclaimers why 6to4 is *NOT* the right solution for 
3GPP networks.

Note: this issue does not specifically address the document's suggestion
to use 6to4 in the UE's, independent of the 3GPP operator.  That'll be
dealt with in the next issues.

The text snippets below are the important ones:
-----
 3.2.1 Tunneling inside the 3GPP Operator's Network
[...]                                                                                                       
    "6to4" nodes use special IPv6 addresses with a "6to4" prefix
    containing the IPv4 address of the corresponding "IPv6 in IPv4"
    tunnel endpoint ("6to4" router) which performs encapsulation /
    decapsulation. When connecting two nodes with "6to4" addresses, the
    corresponding "6to4" routers use the IPv4 addresses specified in
    the "6to4" prefixes to tunnel IPv6 packets through the IPv4
    network. But if only one of them has a "6to4" address, a "6to4"
    relay must be present to perform the missing "6to4" router
    functionality for the native-IPv6 node. 

[note: could split to two paragraphs around here, the paragraph is both 
the 6to4 introduction and 3GPP application]

                                             If we consider the "6to4"
    tunneling mechanism and the 3GPP addressing model (a unique /64
    prefix allocated for each primary PDP context), a /48 "6to4" prefix
    would only be enough for approximately 65000 UEs. Thus, a few
    public IPv4 addresses would be needed depending on the size of the
    operator.

 3.2.2 Tunneling outside the 3GPP Operator's Network
[...]                                                                                                       
    On the other hand, usage of dynamic tunneling, such as "6to4", can
    also be considered, but scalability problems arise when thinking
    about the great number of UEs in the 3GPP networks. The specific
    limitation when applying "6to4" in 3GPP networks should also be
    taken into account, as commented in 3.2.1. Other issues to keep in
    mind with respect to the "6to4" mechanism are that reverse DNS is
    not yet completely solved and there are some security
    considerations associated with the use of "6to4" relay routers (see
    [6to4SEC]). Moreover, in a later phase of the transition period,
    there will be a need for assigning new, native IPv6 addresses to
    all "6to4" nodes in order to enable native IPv6 connectivity.
-----

At least, add a new paragraph at the end of 3.2.2:

    In consequence, the use of 6to4 to enable IPv6 connectivity to a part 
    or parts of the 3GPP network is strongly discouraged; configured 
    tunneling or preferably native IPv6 connectivity is preferred.

The end of the paragraph of 3.2.1 is also confusing things: tunneling 
inside the operator's network ("replacement for BGP tunneling"; as 
described in section 2.4.3 of draft-savola-v6ops-6to4-security-02.txt but 
IMHO a bit bad practice) -- and addressing the needs of the 3GPP UE's 
(pun intended).  If you want to only use 6to4 internally, you can't deploy 
6to4 addresses on the UE's.  If you wan to use it externally, the 
considerations in the next section step out.

So, I think at least the end of the last paragraph of section 3.2.1 should 
be removed/reworded.

I also fail to see a strict need for the 6to4 introduction (the first part 
of the paragraph in 3.2.1) here, at least at this point.

The dhc WG considered two ways to go about defining options
in DHCPv6:

- carry forward all of the existing DHCPv4 options
- define DHCPv6 options "on demand" as specific
   requirements are recognized

The WG decided to adopt the second strategy, so the base
DHCPv6 specification includes all of the options needed
for the basic DHCPv6 machinery, and some additional
options have been defined in several other drafts.

If there are specific options for which we can identify
requirements, we can start the process to define those
options...

Hi,

This is the second issue of today. (I'm using an accelerated cycle because 
I'm leaving for vacation on Friday and want to send all of them out before 
that.)
----

Actually, there are five related issues here regarding DNS guidelines in 
the document.

* The statement about IPv6-only DNS servers, "every recursive DNS server
should be either IPv4-only or dual stack", it not entirely accurate.  It
is perfectly OK to have a IPv6-only DNS server which recursively queries
from _other_ recursive DNS servers.  As long as there are dual-stack
recursive DNS servers in the "recursion chain", the rule is fulfilled.  
It may be useful to try to reword the text slightly to cover for this case
too.

* The analysis only refers to [DNStrans]; it should also refer to (where
appropriate) draft-ietf-dnsop-ipv6-transport-guidelines-00.txt which is
soon ready for DNSOP last call.

* " When thinking the DNS issues, [...]" sounds bad and should be reworded 
(sorry, forgot to add this to the editorial section.)

* The description in section 3.5 is very terse.  The problems here appear 
to be two-fold:

 1) either 3GPP operator's DNS servers should be dual-stack (to reach 
those bogus IPv6-only servers serving the AAAA records), or

 2) at least one IPv4 DNS server is needed for AAAA records so that the 
3GPP operator's DNS servers are able to get the record.

The first is not noted, and the for the second, it is not stated that this
is not the *3GPP operator's* problem, but guy's who is serving AAAA
records.  If we wants to break the operational practices for robust DNS,
there is no way we can stop him..

* the description of DNS issues is spread throughout the document.  
Perhaps we should reword the section "2. Transition mechanisms" to "2. 
Transition mechanisms and considerations" and add a subsection on DNS, 
where we could move e.g. text in section 3.1 and the first paragraph of 
4.1, and only give pointers and discussion specific to GPRS/IMS scenarios 
under those scenarios.

-----
 3.1 Dual Stack UE Connecting to IPv4 and IPv6 Nodes
[...]
    Keeping the Internet name space unfragmented is another important
    issue for both IPv4 and IPv6. It means that any record in the
    public Internet should be available unmodified to any nodes, IPv4
    or IPv6, regardless of the transport being used. The recommended
    approach is the following: every recursive DNS server should be
    either IPv4-only or dual stack and every single DNS zone should be
    served by at least an IPv4 reachable DNS server. This
    recommendation rules out IPv6-only recursive DNS servers and DNS
    zones served by IPv6-only DNS servers, and this approach could be
    revisited if translation techniques between IPv4 and IPv6 were to
    be widely deployed [DNStrans].

 3.4 IPv6 UE Connecting to an IPv4 Node
[...]
    When thinking the DNS issues, the IPv6 UE needs to find the IPv4
    address in the DNS [DNStrans]. Note that DNSSEC is broken if
    NA(P)T-PT is used.

 3.5 IPv4 UE Connecting to an IPv6 Node
[...]
    When thinking the DNS issues, the DNS zones containing AAAA records
    for the IPv6 nodes need to be served by at least one IPv4
    accessible DNS server [DNStrans].

 4.1 DNS Interworking in IMS
                                                                                                       
    The recommended approach (as documented in [DNStrans]) currently is
    that every recursive DNS server should be either IPv4-only or dual
    stack and every single DNS zone should be served by at least an
    IPv4 reachable DNS server. The recommendation rules out IPv6-only
    recursive DNS servers and DNS zones served by IPv6-only DNS
    servers.
                                                                                                       
    To perform DNS resolution in the IMS, the UE can be configured as a
    stub resolver pointing to a recursive DNS resolver. This
    communication can happen over IPv6. However, in the process to find
    the IPv6 address of a SIP server, the recursive DNS resolver may
    need to access data that is available only on some IPv4 DNS
    servers, see [DNStrans]. One way to achieve this is to make the DNS
    resolver be dual stack. As DNS traffic is not directly related to
    the IMS functionality, this is not in contradiction with the IPv6-
    only nature of the IMS.

Pekka,

regarding the ipv4 survey documents, from a global viewpoint and given
that the survey's purpose is simply to document identified IPv4
dependencies, the documents are just fine.

I think it is mainly a terminology issue. In my vocabulary,
  what you describe is a forwarder DNS server, not a recursive DNS 
server...
Although, I agree, there is a lot of confusion in the terminology in 
that area.
This will be cleared up in the upcoming revision of 
draft-ietf-dnsop-ipv6-transport-guidelines-00.txt

The other documents have or will expired, so the only one to refer to 
now
is draft-ietf-dnsop-ipv6-transport-guidelines-00.txt

same here. The only thing to say is that 3GPP DNS recursive server MUST 
be
dual stack according to 
draft-ietf-dnsop-ipv6-transport-guidelines-00.txt.

6to4 was designed as a technique to ride over the networks
of ISPs who don't support IPv6 natively, so I have to agree
with Pekka *except* perhaps in the case of a 3G operator who
decides not support IPv6 (such operators are rumoured to exist).
In that case, host-based 6to4 might just have some applicability,
but the scenario would need to be described very precisely.

Hi,

This is a slightly related point to "The use of 6to4" issue raised 
yesterday.

Section 3.1 goes and analyzes the case where the 3GPP network does not 
provide IPv6 support at great length.

I strongly believe that:

 1) we *MUST NOT* require or recommend the implementation of any automatic 
tunneling methods such as 6to4 or ISATAP on 3GPP UE's.  We SHOULD NOT 
require or recommend the implement configured tunneling on UE's (but I can 
be convinced otherwise).

 2) The use of ISATAP is misguided in this space: it's only useful if the
3GPP operator supports IPv6 (i.e. provides the ISATAP routers and other
infrastructure) but doesn't just have IPv6 SGSN's, GGSN's, etc.  This
seems in direct conflict with 3GPP goals.

 3) we should be able to assume that unless the 3GPP operator where the 
user buys his service doesn't support IPv6, the user cannot use IPv6 on 
his gadget.  On the other hand, if the particular GGSN the user is 
connected using IPv4 supports only IPv4, there is nothing stopping the 
user from using some other GGSN for IPv6 support.  That is, as long as the 
3GPP operator has basically one IPv6-aware GGSN, SGSN and HLR, IPv6 users 
are happy.

The reasons for these points are mainly:

 - The number of UE's is expected to be very high,
 - The implementation footprint of UE's is expected to be very small, so 
any extra code is difficult to justify,
 - The upgradeability of UE's is poor, and we may not be able to retire 
such mechanisms,
 - We're concerned about 3GPP *deployment* not early trials or piloting 
 - There is a significant pressure for 3GPP operators to do IPv6 properly, 
and we should rather work on getting on with *real* IPv6 deployment than 
fiddling around with transition mechanisms in this space.

Of course, if the UE implements something like 6to4, there's nothing to 
stop them.  Just we shouldn't advocate that..

This, I'd suggest major reworking of the parts of the section 3.1.

===8<====
 3.1 Dual Stack UE Connecting to IPv4 and IPv6 Nodes
[...]
    However, the UE may attach to a 3GPP network, in which the SGSN
    (Serving GPRS Support Node), the GGSN and the HLR (Home Location
    Register) support IPv4 PDP contexts by default, but may not support
    IPv6 PDP contexts. If the 3GPP network does not support IPv6 PDP
    contexts, and an application on the UE needs to communicate with an
    IPv6(-only) node, the UE may activate an IPv4 PDP context and
    encapsulate IPv6 packets in IPv4 packets using a tunneling
    mechanism. This might happen in very early phases of IPv6
    deployment, or in IPv6 demonstrations and trials.

    The UE may be assigned a private or public IPv4 address when the
    IPv4 PDP context has been activated, although it is more likely
    that it will receive a private address (due to the lack of public
    IPv4 addresses). The use of private IPv4 addresses in the UE
    depends on the support of these addresses by the tunneling
    mechanism and the deployment scenario. In some cases, public IPv4
    addresses are required (one example is 6to4 [RFC3056]), but if the
    tunnel endpoints are in the same private domain or the tunneling
    mechanism works through IPv4 NAT (Network Address Translator),
    private IPv4 addresses can be used (examples are [ISATAP] and
    [TEREDO]). In general, if tunneling from the host is needed, ISATAP
    and 6to4 are preferred and TEREDO is a mechanism of last resort
    when neither of these are applicable.

    One deployment scenario example is using laptop computer and a UMTS
    UE as a modem. IPv6 packets are encapsulated in IPv4 packets in the
    laptop computer and an IPv4 PDP context is activated. Although
    "IPv6 in IPv4" tunneling can be either automatic or configured (by
    the user), the first alternative is favored, because it is expected
    that most UE users just want to use an application in their UE;
    they might not even care, whether the network connection is IPv4 or
    IPv6.
[...]

 3.2.2 Tunneling outside the 3GPP Operator's Network
[...]
    On the other hand, usage of dynamic tunneling, such as "6to4", can
    also be considered, but scalability problems arise when thinking
    about the great number of UEs in the 3GPP networks. The specific
    limitation when applying "6to4" in 3GPP networks should also be
    taken into account, as commented in 3.2.1. Other issues to keep in
    mind with respect to the "6to4" mechanism are that reverse DNS is
    not yet completely solved and there are some security
    considerations associated with the use of "6to4" relay routers (see
    [6to4SEC]). Moreover, in a later phase of the transition period,
    there will be a need for assigning new, native IPv6 addresses to
    all "6to4" nodes in order to enable native IPv6 connectivity.

Hi,

In section 3.2.2, "Tunneling outside the 3GPP Operator's Network", 
describes the case where the 3GPP operator has to obtain Internet 
connectivity through a tunnel.

My concern comes from the second-to-last paragraph:

    Usage of manually configured "IPv6 in IPv4" tunneling is sensible
    if the number of the tunnels can be kept limited. It is assumed
    that a maximum of 10-15 configured "IPv6 in IPv4" tunnels from the
    3GPP network towards the ISP / Internet should be sufficient.

This seems to be mixing issues with tunneling inside the 3GPP operator's 
network.  Why on earth would 3GPP operator have more than 10-15 configured 
tunnels *out* of its network?  This and the last paragraph would seem to 
indicate some confusion or misunderstanding.

I also see little need for the text in the previous paragraph:

                            Defining the tunnel endpoint depends on the
    deployment scenario. The authors want to avoid duplicating work and
    note here that the ISP transition scenarios are analyzed in [ISP-
    scen] and [ISP-analysis].

(How many ways can you define a tunnel end-point??)  

I'd remove the last paragraph completely (as was already mentioned in some 
other issue), and reword the two last ones to like:

    If the ISP only provides IPv4 connectivity, then the IPv6 traffic
    initiated from the 3GPP network should be transported tunneled in
    IPv4 to the ISP.

    Usage of manually configured "IPv6 in IPv4" tunneling is the 
    best approach, as the number of the tunnels outside of the 3GPP 
    network is very limited; no more than a couple of tunnels should 
    be needed.

    ISP transition scenarios are described in [ISP-scen] and 
    [ISP-analysis].

(or leave the last one out completely; it should already be addresses in 
at the start of section 3.2)

====
 3.2.2 Tunneling outside the 3GPP Operator's Network
                                                                                                                  
    This subsection includes the case when the peer node is outside the
    operator's network. In that case the "IPv6 in IPv4" tunnel starting
    point can be in the operator's network - encapsulating node can be
    e.g. the GGSN or the edge router.

    The case is pretty straightforward if the upstream ISP provides
    native IPv6 connectivity to the Internet. If there is no native
    IPv6 connectivity available in the 3GPP network, an "IPv6 in IPv4"
    tunnel should be configured from e.g. the GGSN to the dual stack
    border gateway in order to access the upstream ISP.
                                                                                                                      
    If the ISP only provides IPv4 connectivity, then the IPv6 traffic
    initiated from the 3GPP network should be transported tunneled in
    IPv4 to the ISP. Defining the tunnel endpoint depends on the
    deployment scenario. The authors want to avoid duplicating work and
    note here that the ISP transition scenarios are analyzed in [ISP-

Hi,

Looking at the document, it is not clear to me how the UE's will be 
configured.

For example, how will they be provisioned with:
 - the DNS server addresses (search path is a definite non-goal)
 - addresses of web proxies, and possibly other ALG's 
 - the NTP servers, if needed
 - other stuff.

As far as I know, this part of the 3GPP analysis has been forgotten
(however, there is a mention on the requirement for the easy
configurability of proxies in the document.).

I take it that by the latter you mean a network under that same 3GPP
operator which does not support IPv6?

On these two issues, I keep getting mixed signals from different people 
involved with 3GPP work.  Some say it can be done, some say it can't.

I think a separate and very clear analysis with refs should be done on 
that subject.

Dubious 3GPP specs (see above) are a real hindrance to deployment, it 
seems..

Or 3GPP is making expectations it shouldn't.  It may just be that we could 
say, "if you want to use IPv6, require IPv6".

If UE that normally uses IPv6 roams to a provider that only supports
IPv4, some kind of tunnel solution seems inevitable. ISATAP is
certainly irrelevant, because the IPv4 provider won't provide 
ISATAP machinery by definition. So either the home provider will
have to offer a tunnel broker or a 6to4 relay for use by its
subscribers when they roam on IPv4. I don't think the IETF
should worry about whether the UE has enough real estate for
this option; that's a vendor choice. 

I suspect the UE will have less overhead to support 6to4 than
to support a tunnel broker protocol.

(I think you should elaborate on "normally")

OK.  If roaming is done at L2, then IP addresses etc. should stay the same
when you roam, right?  Then IPv6 addresses will stay too, right?  So, why
do you need ISATAP there then?

I've talked with a few people in Nokia and they seem to have said so.  Of
course, I know close to nothing of 3GPP, so they might have misunderstood
my questions or I might have misunderstood their answers.

I agree.

And where do those interpretations stem from?  Lack the IETF understanding
non-IETF specs and the lack of non-IETF people understanding IETF specs.  
Let's look at the former.

I don't know whether it is the responsibility of the IETF reader to
educate himself with non-IETF specs, or the responsibility of the people
discussing non-IETF specs in the IETF context to educate IETF folks.  

There are probably different opinions on this, but as 3GPP comes to the
IETF, my personal feeling is that it is the latter. (I.e. to provide
enough context of 3GPP so that IETF folks can make reasonable decisions.)

> and we didn't have major disagreement.

You misunderstand the role of the design team.  The design team is to 
address issues, yes, but all its decisions are brought to the working 
group, and the most importantly, all those decisions must be justified -- 
and the working group has to feel good with them.  There may be good 
reasons for decisions made in the process, but at least all of them do not 
appear to be apparent.

Design team is a brain-storming activity to cook up proposals for the WG.  
WG then decides what to do with those proposals based on how it feels 
about them.

From RFC2418:

6.5. Design teams

   It is often useful, and perhaps inevitable, for a sub-group of a
   working group to develop a proposal to solve a particular problem.
   Such a sub-group is called a design team.  In order for a design team
   to remain small and agile, it is acceptable to have closed membership
   and private meetings.  Design teams may range from an informal chat
   between people in a hallway to a formal set of expert volunteers that
   the WG chair or AD appoints to attack a controversial problem.  The
   output of a design team is always subject to approval, rejection or
   modification by the WG as a whole.

There is a reason why we have "3GPP scenarios", "ISP scenarios" and
"Unmanaged scenarios" are separate (I'm assuming here that 3GPP doesn't
overlap with Enterprise :-): it is assumed that 3GPP is *different* in
some respect, and has some unique characteristics.

Of course, different people's assumptions on _what_ those unique
characteristics are may be different (which may be causing
misunderstandings).

My assumptions include for example:
 - large number of UE's (at least after the kickoff)
 - very plain & simple UE's (IPv6 implementation-wise)
 - strong network support for IPv6 ("IMS is exclusively IPv6" etc.)
 - others

We are not mandating tunnelling for generic cases. However we
analysed each scenario and where it made sense we recommended
certain mechanisms such as tunnelling. Tunnelling is not a generic
solution for all our problems and we are not claiming that.

It is not in conflict with any 3GPP goals. Note that the 3GPP operator
requires IPv6 for SIP-based IMS but this doc also covers generic access
(which is where we talk about tunnelling). On the contrary it helps
operators to start rolling out IPv6 without having to upgrade everything
all at once. This is an important issue which we have addressed. Also,
when a user roams to a network that does not support IPv6, the use of
ISATAP can allow access to IPv6 app.s. It is obvious that in the long
run native IPv6 access is the way to go. If that helps we can make
this more explicit.

That can't be done. The user doesn't choose GGSNs.

That is not correct. If you happen to go to the wrong SGSN/GGSN
you just don't get IPv6 service, independently from the fact
that there may be another SGSN/GGSN somewhere else in the
network supporting IPv6.

You have left out the issue that when we're introducing a new
technology nowadays we don't do it all at once but gradually.
That means we will have to deal with IPv6 capable mobiles
trying to use IPv6 app.s even in areas where IPv6 native
connectivity is not possible. If we don't consider this case
then we won't be providing a full set of answers to 3GPP.

You're assuming that roaming is done at L3. Roaming is normally
done at L2 so for example ISATAP is a relevant option.

Imagine a situation in which you're roaming to another
operator's network. The roaming user requests v6 connectivity
(PDP Context) in the new network. If the new network doesn't
support it, the roaming user won't get v6 connectivity.
The PDP Context is a special L2 as described in RFC 3314.

An UE can only use 6to4 if the ISP provides it with a global IPv4
address. I suspect that the same 3G ISP that are looking at not
providing IPv6 support are also looking at not providing global IPv4
addresses. There are certainly many GPRS service today that by default
provide you with net 10 addresses; you have to pay extra to get the
"professional" option and a global address.

If the ISP does not provide a global address to the UE, then IPv6
connectivity can only be obtained via a tunneling protocol that goes
through the ISP's NAT -- either some form of VPN or tunnel, or a Teredo,
or a variation of these.

Interpretations can stem from misunderstanding of the questions
or answers as you wrote above. That's often the case since that is
an important means by which knowledge is shared.

I agree and that's been an important part of RFC 3314 and the
scenarios draft. I think they do a good job.

You're jumping to conclusions here. I never said that design teams
are above the WG. The point is that you are the person raising
these objections and I was trying to find out what they are based on.
If the WG thinks that RFC 3314, analysis and scenario drafts don't provide
enough background info to support the need for tunnelling we can put in
something to explain it better. However what you were saying previously was
that you talked to some people who told you the opposite of what is written
in the draft. So it looks like the meaning and recommendation is your issue
rather than the clarity. If people disagree with what I have written on
3gpp in these emails or what is in the draft then they should bring it up
now so it can be addressed. Otherwise we can just work on the clarity
and move on.

Ok; this is not necessarily a huge problem in itself.

But let me try to rephrase this:

Imagine a situation in which you're moving under another GGSN in your 
operator's network.  The user requests v6 connectivity
(PDP Context) in the network. If the network doesn't
support it, the user won't get v6 connectivity.

I.e., to be able to use v6 everywhere under your own operator's network, 
is it required that all GGSN's in that operator's network support IPv6 PDP 
contexts?

Or let me phrase this differently:

 Would roaming with 3GPP UE work if the roaming agreements would include 
 an indication whether the foreign network supports the same PDP context 
 types as the original network.  

I.e. the user can prefer those roaming partners which provide the services 
they want.  That should be enough of an economic incentive.

Or, i.e. we define that "roaming" is not "true roaming" unless you provide 
the support for the same PDP context types; that is, there is "partial 
roaming" as of today and "real roaming" of tomorrow.

IMHO, it seems ill-advised to call something "roaming" when they fail to 
provide critical infrastructure capabilities the users need.

> The PDP Context is a special L2 as described in RFC 3314.

Ok, let me try to clarify several ambiguous points: (there are probably 
more but from the top of my head)

Does the IP address of the UE change when it roams to another network?
Does the GGSN always change to a GGSN of the another network?
  If not, how is IP address kept the same?
  If yes, is mobility (in the meaning of "connection 
          survivability") between roaming networks a non-goal as it can't 
          work at PDP context layer?

When the user moves inside the same operator's network does the IP address 
change? (I don't think so)
 - Does the GGSN change? (I don't think so)
    If yes, how does mobility work then?

What determines which GGSN you end up using in the operator's network?
 - How does this work in a network where some GGSN's are v6-capable and 
some not?

Figure 3 (typo: should be fig 4) in page 11 seems to indicate that UE can
have multiple PDP contexts, to multiple ISPs.  As long as UE opens the PDP
context to his own ISP which supports v6, you're fine.  But can the UE do 
that?

During the Vienna meeting, I sensed that there was a split in the WG
constituency between those who like automatic tunneling techniques such
as 6to4 and Teredo because they enable automatic deployment of IPv6, and
those who have an instinctive dislike for these technologies and would
much prefer controlled mechanisms and the orderly deployment of tunnels.
I would like to understand how we can resolve this tension.

My personal analysis is that configured tunnels have a lot of drawbacks,
unless they are "very short", in practice if they are provided by the
very same ISP that provides IPv4 connectivity. This opinion is based on
our collective experience with long tunnels: they require collaboration
of a remote entity, and thus explicit configuration; they don't follow
the natural Internet topology and thus often result in rather poor
transmission times; and they are costly to provide, as someone has to
pay for the transmission to and from the tunnel endpoint.

Automatic tunnels like 6to4 and Teredo have the advantage of being
potentially "very short": the transmission between two transition hosts
follows the IPv4 topology, and is thus as short as it gets; the
transmission between transition and native includes a dog-leg, but that
leg can be as short as the distance to the nearest relay, i.e. the
nearest dual stack router. The typical issues with automatic tunnels are
the stability of the IPv6 address (as stable as the underlying IPv4),
the provision of reverse mappings in the DNS, and the possibility of
attacks on or through the relays, most of which can probably be
mitigated. Another often quoted issue is that people might just be
satisfied with the transition technology and never go native, but I
don't believe that this creates much of a difference between configured
and automatic tunnels.

An obvious compromise would be to use no tunnel at all if the ISP
provides IPv6 connectivity, configured tunnels when provided by the
local ISP, automatic tunneling otherwise. However, this begs one
question. Why would an ISP invest in providing local tunnels, instead of
providing native connectivity faster? If the ISP wants to facilitate the
transition, why would it not just provide a local 6to4 relay for the
exclusive use of its customers?

You can make it work with just one GGSN if you really want to.

Basically the UE won't know until it tries to activate
a v6 connection and it gets refused.

Some people would see voice, IPv4 or MMS as critical so I don't
think it makes sense to get into a discussion here on what the word
"roaming" should mean.

The active PDP Context's address doesn't change as long
as this type of "connection survivability" roaming is allowed.
However note that roaming is also when I get off the plane
in another country and turn my mobile on. So the address is
likely to change.

No.

L2 tunnelling back to the home network.

The type of service "APN" you request (more in RFC 3314)

You create a v6 "APN" mapped to the IPv6 GGSN, but I don't think
this is important in practice. I think you are concentrating too
much on the GGSN issue. Although the GGSN is your default router,
in order to activate the PDP Context you need support also in the
SGSN for example. Whether you're roaming or not this holds true.
As a user you sit under two nodes: SGSN and GGSN. The SGSN has
geographical coverage. If I am under a SGSN that refuses the
v6 pdp context or a network where there is no IPv6 GGSN then I
can use tunnelling. That's all we're saying.

It can activate mutliple PDP Contexts. However the addressing
and forwarding is through the GGSN. So, the ISP may support IPv6
but the SGSN/GGSN don't. It's just like any access router. If your
ISP supports IPv6 and your current access router is IPv4-only you'll
still need to tunnel to get to your v6 ISP.

Hi Christian, all,

I'm in principle in favor of both, because my belief is that only the market will drive one or the other.

Of course, I will much prefer native services, but they only will happen when the ISPs can start making money because the native
service itself, or because is an added value for their "regular" IPv4 service.

The problem is that I don't think most of the ISPs will invest in offering tunnel services, because they will cost almost the same
as providing native service, with the only difference of the customer CPE and the BAS in case of xDSL or similar services. May be
some will start with tunnels until they upgrade their BAS, and then will ask their customers to pay an additional fee for moving to
a native service. Is a possible business model, but as said, who knows.

But what I'm convinced is that we will have both type of tunnels, and we must provide good technical support for them:
1) Automatic tunnels provided mainly by non-local ISPs (as is the case for the actual tunnel brokers, over all the world)
2) Configured tunnels provided by local ISPs.

I think this is opposed to your belief ... but I think the local ISPs will only provide tunnels if they can be managed.

So what I believe is that we need more support for the "local-ISPs". Automatic tunnels don't like them, because, at least actually,
they have non easy way to control the users.

If we have a Teredo-like mechanism that provides authentication (with or w/o billing, that's another history), that will be
interesting for local ISPs, but then is not so-automatic. I think it can be a simple registration site, something like what you have
for a TB.

I don't think that providing transition paths will difficult the global adoption of IPv6, more at the contrary, transition is always
"bad" in terms of performance, and the people will like to take advantage of native IPv6, specially when they tried a good
transition path.

My 20 cents ;-)

Regards,
Jordi

Subject: Automatic tunnels


During the Vienna meeting, I sensed that there was a split in the WG
constituency between those who like automatic tunneling techniques such
as 6to4 and Teredo because they enable automatic deployment of IPv6, and
those who have an instinctive dislike for these technologies and would
much prefer controlled mechanisms and the orderly deployment of tunnels.
I would like to understand how we can resolve this tension.

My personal analysis is that configured tunnels have a lot of drawbacks,
unless they are "very short", in practice if they are provided by the
very same ISP that provides IPv4 connectivity. This opinion is based on
our collective experience with long tunnels: they require collaboration
of a remote entity, and thus explicit configuration; they don't follow
the natural Internet topology and thus often result in rather poor
transmission times; and they are costly to provide, as someone has to
pay for the transmission to and from the tunnel endpoint.

Automatic tunnels like 6to4 and Teredo have the advantage of being
potentially "very short": the transmission between two transition hosts
follows the IPv4 topology, and is thus as short as it gets; the
transmission between transition and native includes a dog-leg, but that
leg can be as short as the distance to the nearest relay, i.e. the
nearest dual stack router. The typical issues with automatic tunnels are
the stability of the IPv6 address (as stable as the underlying IPv4),
the provision of reverse mappings in the DNS, and the possibility of
attacks on or through the relays, most of which can probably be
mitigated. Another often quoted issue is that people might just be
satisfied with the transition technology and never go native, but I
don't believe that this creates much of a difference between configured
and automatic tunnels.

An obvious compromise would be to use no tunnel at all if the ISP
provides IPv6 connectivity, configured tunnels when provided by the
local ISP, automatic tunneling otherwise. However, this begs one
question. Why would an ISP invest in providing local tunnels, instead of
providing native connectivity faster? If the ISP wants to facilitate the
transition, why would it not just provide a local 6to4 relay for the
exclusive use of its customers?

This seems like a potentially fatal design flaw.

If UE's were to run PPP PDP Contexts, could the lack of IPv6 support in 
remote SGSN's/GGSN's be avoided ?

Is there a significant number of roaming partners where voice, IPv4 or MMS 
are not supported (in regions where some other potential roaming partners 
would provide support for them)?  Otherwise your analogy does not seem 
fitting.

So, as the GGSN does not always change, there should be a way to 
keep alive the association with the local GGSN?

If you use IPv6 PDP context to a local GGSN, move over to another country 
and 3GPP operator but don't switch off your UE -- retaining your old GGSN 
-- does the IPv6 still work through the IPv6 PDP context through L2 
tunneling?  If not, why not?

Maybe so, but the IP concepts are those I'm familiar with :-)

If SGSN doesn't support IPv6 PDP contexts but GGSN does, you're out of 
luck? (without tunneling by the UE)

I'm not sure if my question got across, because I don't understand the 
answer in that context.

So, let's try again:

How exactly can UE's open multiple PDP _primary_ contexts to 
different operators?  Is there anything in the capabilities of the 
network(s) which may hinder your possibilities to open PDP contexts to 
different ISPs?

When you're roaming, couldn't you just try opening IPv6 PDP context, and 
if it fails, try some other roaming partner (if available) and try to open 
an IPv6 PDP context there too?   

Or even try opening PDP contexts simultaneously (would be 
more costly, I suppose -- depending on whether the billing starts after or 
before the PDP context activation is successful; in this scenario, it's 
the latter)?

Later, I thought of another issue here.

When you roam, your IP address typically changes to one given by the
remote 3GPP operator.  Who provides Internet connectivity to this address,
the remote operator or your "home" operator (e.g. via L2 tunneling)?

If the former, ISATAP would not really be applicable, as the operators
would not be in the same administrative domains, and moreover, the
addresses would likely be private.

Hi,

This is my last issue in the document.  This has already been discussed 
before, at least in the thread starting May 14, 2003, with subject 
"3gpp-analysis document and automatic tunneling", but without concrete 
resolution.  Perhaps rereading that discussion would be in order prior to 
starting the same debate again.

The text basically includes healthy disclaimers (based on my insistence I 
guess) why running automatic tunneling mechanisms in 3GPP operators' 
backbones is not a good idea, and dual-stack should be done instead, 
coupled with a couple of tunnels.  (Most of this is really ISP scenarios 
anyway.)

However, the text still, IMHO, uses too strong words in favor of automatic 
tunneling mechanisms, in particular in three paragraphs I've marked with a 
"*" in the text below.

I've also marked a section which might use some more description with "@":  
"if the number of IPv6 islands grow, the administrative burden of
maintaining tunnels also grows".  Correct: but isn't this a CLEAR signal 
that instead of building more tunnels you should be deploying dual stack 
between those islands?  We want an (IPv4/)IPv6 continent, not dozens of 
small islands connected with bridges!

What I want is to:
 - remove all references to the use of 6to4 (for the use of automatic 
tunneling in the 3GPP operator's core network) or IGP/BGP tunneling 
mechanisms from this document, and
 - discuss connection redundancy requirements (if any) and how they 
could be met with regular, already specified, simple methods (like running 
IPv6 routing protocols, using configured tunnneling and deploying 
dual-stack infrastructure).

=====
 3.2 IPv6 UE Connecting to an IPv6 Node through an IPv4 Network
[...]
    "IPv6 in IPv4" tunnels between IPv6 islands can be either static or
    dynamic. The selection of the type of tunneling mechanism is up to
    the operator / ISP deployment scenario and only generic
    recommendations can be given in this document.

    The following subsections are focused on the usage of different
    tunneling mechanisms when the peer node is in the operator's
    network or outside the operator's network. The authors note that
    where the actual 3GPP network ends and which parts of the network
    belong to the ISP(s) also depends on the deployment scenario. The
    authors are not commenting how many ISP functions the 3GPP operator
    should perform. However, many 3GPP operators are ISPs of some sort
    themselves. ISP transition scenarios are documented and analyzed in
    [ISP-scen], [ISP-analysis] and their future updates.

 3.2.1 Tunneling inside the 3GPP Operator's Network
                                                                                                                      
    Many GPRS operators already have IPv4 backbone networks deployed
    and they are gradually migrating them while introducing IPv6
    islands. IPv6 backbones can be considered quite rare in the first
    phases of the transition. If the 3GPP operator already has IPv6
    widely deployed in its network, this subsection is not so relevant.

    In initial, smaller scale IPv6 deployment, where a small number of
    IPv6 in IPv4 tunnels are required to connect the IPv6 islands over
    the 3GPP operator's IPv4 network, manually configured tunnels can
    be used. In a 3GPP network, one IPv6 island could contain the GGSN
    while another island contains the operator's IPv6 application
    servers. However, manually configured tunnels can be an
@   administrative burden when the number of islands and therefore
    tunnels rises. In that case, upgrading parts of the backbone to
    dual stack may be the simplest choice. The administrative burden
    could also be mitigated by using automated management tools which
    are typically necessary to manage large networks anyway.
                                                                                                                      
*   Even a dynamic tunneling mechanism, such as "6to4" [RFC3056] or an
    IGP/EGP routing protocol based tunneling mechanism [BGP][IGP],
    could be used if other methods are not suitable. Routing protocol
    based mechanisms such as [BGP] consist of running BGP between the
    neighboring router tunnel endpoints and using multi-protocol BGP
    extensions to exchange reachability information of IPv6 prefixes.

*   The routers use this information to create IPv6 in IPv4 tunnel
    interfaces and route IPv6 packets over the IPv4 network. It is
    possible to combine this with different types of tunnels.
                                                                                                                      
*   Connection redundancy should also be noted as an important
    requirement in 3GPP networks. Static tunnels on their own don't
    provide a routing recovery solution for all scenarios where an IPv6
    route goes down. However, they may provide an adequate solution
    depending on the design of the network and in presence of other
    router redundancy mechanisms. On the other hand, IGP/EGP based
    mechanisms can provide redundancy.

    "6to4" nodes use special IPv6 addresses with a "6to4" prefix
    containing the IPv4 address of the corresponding "IPv6 in IPv4"
    tunnel endpoint ("6to4" router) which performs encapsulation /
    decapsulation. When connecting two nodes with "6to4" addresses, the
    corresponding "6to4" routers use the IPv4 addresses specified in
    the "6to4" prefixes to tunnel IPv6 packets through the IPv4
    network. But if only one of them has a "6to4" address, a "6to4"
    relay must be present to perform the missing "6to4" router
    functionality for the native-IPv6 node. If we consider the "6to4"
    tunneling mechanism and the 3GPP addressing model (a unique /64
    prefix allocated for each primary PDP context), a /48 "6to4" prefix
    would only be enough for approximately 65000 UEs. Thus, a few
    public IPv4 addresses would be needed depending on the size of the
    operator.

Hi,

The text in section 4.2 on IMS scenarios describes SIP/SDP transition
scenarios.  At least based on Karim El-Malki et al.'s work, it is not
apparent that ALG should/has to change the SIP messages and SDP payload.  
I thought the "architectural" approach would have been been different,
i.e., in principle, make the IPv6-only IMS aware of the payload
translation, a la RSIP.  In any case, the SIP/SDP transition scenarios
need to be fleshed out a bit more.

=====
    SIP and SDP transition has to be made in an SIP/SDP Application
    Level Gateway. The ALG has to change the IP addresses transported
    in the SIP messages and the SDP payload of those messages to the
    appropriate version. In addition, there has to be interoperability
    for DNS queries; see section 4.1 for details.

FYI,

I will be on vacation with no access to email (or intermittent and shoddy 
at best) for about 1.5 weeks. Contact other co-chairs for v6ops related 
activities in the meantime.  I'll continue the message threads I was 
participating when I return.

Hi,

The security consideration section of the 3GPP analysis document is still 
very weak; in principle, they only cover three points related to NAT-PT 
and/or DNSSEC.  A more thorough analysis is required.  

In addition to NAT-PT/DNSSEC issues (I'm not sure if the three points are 
a conclusive list, though), the security properties of different 
transition scenarios and mechanisms should be briefly described.  

The exact contents depends a lot on which mechanisms we seem to get
rough consensus on.

=====
 5. Security Considerations
                                                                                                                      
         1. NAT-PT DNS ALG problems are described in [NATPT-DNS] and
            [v4v6trans].
                                                                                                                      
         2. The 3GPP specifications do not currently define the usage
            of DNS Security. They neither disallow the usage of DNSSEC,
            nor do they mandate it.
                                                                                                                      
         3. NAT-PT breaks DNSSEC.

Pekka, 

Do you want to send text? Perhaps when you get back.
This comment is a bit too open.

	we at IIJ use PC with BSD operating system for terminating our

I don't think most of the ISPs will do it with just a PC. Most of them still don't believe in IPv6, so is just a good excuse for
them (they will tell you that is still not well supported by the router vendors). Most of the cost anyway is training the people and
maintaining the service (including the customers hot line).

Its clear, how many TBs exist around the world versus ISPs ?

But may be there are other reasons that I didn't cached ?

Jordi

In my company, not supporting the IPv6 was the first reason to make
problems with the deployment.
But I see it as a deeper thing: IPv4 services are managable through
network management systems. For the ATM network you can tune up many
parameters to optimize IP traffic and/or other services. If you add a
new protocol, which cannot be managed via the same interface, this
messes up the things:there are not many people with knowledge how to
solve the problems with tunneled IPv6 and even how to find them. Another
point is that nobody will guarantee, that the service will be working
properly. For IPv4 our hardware vendor gives us the support. For IPv6
we're on our own. Most of us here are technical persons (as far as I see
it). It's not a problem for techies to solve the things - we're just in
it.
This looks completely different from managements' point of view: IPv6
comes as a new service, without any guarantees (we offer SLA for all
type of services being offered, you'd have to cross IPv6 from your SLA
portfolio then - it won't look good). To deploy IPv6 you'll need to
train people and any human resource rotation will cause more problems
(more things to be learnt). Still, since nearly noone *REQUIRES* IPv6
connectivity to be done, it does not come as a priority to be deployed.
For management, more important is to improve the services already
existing. The reason, that would vitally speed up the global deployment
would be the deadline. This is not based on what US DoD done (but it's a
good example how to speed it up). From my experience, if management does
not see the deadline, the current affairs (having deadline and precise
effects) will be considered to be done.

I didn't wanted to feed up the troll. That's just how it looks in few
ISPs in Poland I know.

Best Regards,

Piotr

Hi Christian,

What do you mean by "following or not the IPv4 topology" ?

From the IPv4 forwarding point of view, I can't figure out such
a difference between configured or 6to4 tunnels.

I guess I must be missing you point here ?

Thanks,
Robert

Answered this already in your list of questions.
It is the latter (L2 tunnelling) thus e.g. ISATAP is
applicable.

Later, I thought of another issue here.

When you roam, your IP address typically changappes to one given by the
remote 3GPP operator.  Who provides Internet connectivity to this
address,
the remote operator or your "home" operator (e.g. via L2 tunneling)?

If the former, ISATAP would not really be applicable, as the operators
would not be in the same administrative domains, and moreover, the
addresses would likely be private.

Traffic between two 6to4 routers will follow exactly the same path as
IPv4 traffic between these two routers. If the network topology changes,
the path will automatically follow the new routing state. This is a big
difference to traffic over overlay networks like the 6Bone, in which
packets hop from tunnel to tunnel; the tunnel layout is typically meant
to reflect the nominal network topology, but it will not change if
events affect the routing. A practical consequence is that a ping
between two 6to4 addresses often shows a much shorter delay than a ping
between two tunneled hosts.

Christian,

First of, let me clarify that is discussion is more relevant to the 
home ISP
than to the enterprise ISP.

I will agree with your analysis that customers configured tunnels needs
to be terminated within the home ISP core or access network to be 
efficient.
This does not rule out configured tunnels, however it requires ISP 
cooperation to work.

I would also like to point that automatic tunnels have their share of
problems. Security is a big concern on my list. We have studied at 
length
6to4 security issues, we would need to do the same with teredo/isatap.

The rest of the message analyses 6to4 vs tunnel broker from the ISP 
perspective
(as opposite to the user perspective)

One issue is to understand the scaling properties of 
configured/automatic
tunnel solutions. 6to4 to native v6 kinda works (if you accept that the 
packets
you send to your neighbor can go a couple times around the planet) 
today because
there is very little traffic.Tunnel brokers done outside of traditional 
IPv4 ISPs induce
sub-optimal traffic. It's fine as a bootstrapping mechanism for early
adopter, but this cannot sustain production traffic. For this, as said 
earlier,
tunnel server would have to be as close to the source as possible.

We also need to understand if and how a home ISP can deploy gradually 
IPv6
for its customer. Does providing a 6to4 relay helps? Does providing a 
tunnel broker
in in core/access networks help? Does this makes it easier to go 
gradually to native?

The issue with with an ISP deploying an internal 6to4-to-native relay 
is that
it will help its customers who are using 6to4 to send packets to native 
IPv6
destination, but won't do much to make sure that the same packets will
return any quicker. As 6to4 to native and back is fundamentally 
asymmetric routing,
somebody, preferably close to the native IPv6 node has to have a route 
for 2002::/16.
As one can not realistically expect to have every single IPv6 network 
maintaining
a local native-to-6to4 gateway, we would have to rely on public,
open native-to-6to4 relays to exist and advertise 2002::/16 in the DFZ.
So far, I have identified only a few of those public native-to-6to4 
relays.
My understanding is that, expect from the willingness to promote the 
technology,
there is actually little incentive to operate such a relay, as it will 
just attract transit traffic
that has nothing to do with the ISP customers.

But if/once an ISP had deployed local 6to4-to-native relay, what is the 
next step?
It seems to me that there is a more natural evolution path if the ISP 
starts with
a tunnel broker/server. Internal links can be upgraded to native, then 
PE-CPE
links can be upgraded to native in places where the demand justifies it.
In other words, it seems to me that it is easier to go selectively  from
a sparse deployment mode to a dense deployment mode.

I guess we agree that the main priority for ISP ought to be, "provide
native IPv6 services". The question then is what should an ISP do when
it wishes to provide IPv6 but is not quite ready. I would expect the ISP
design team to tell us more about the constraints and the
practicalities, but there are clearly three possibilities: do nothing,
provide support for automatic tunneling, or provide configured tunnels.
The support for automatic tunneling is simple: just provide a
6to4-to-native service and advertise a route to 192.88.99.1; to avoid
abuse, make sure that 192.88.99.1 is only reachable by subscribers of
this ISP. The support for configured tunnels is somewhat more complex:
if the ISP really want to provide additional benefits compare to
automatic tunnels, it needs to do some form of customer management to
ensure that customers get stable prefixes, that they use the tunnel end
point closest to home, etc. Frankly, I don't know whether the additional
complexity is worth the cost.

Deploying a "native to 6to4" relay is actually very easy -- its is a
matter of turning on 6to4 relaying on a dual-stack router, or even on a
dual-stack host. I would expect that these relays will be plentiful.

We should precisely aim for having at least one native to 6to4 router in
every dual stack ISP. These routers are very easy to control: just don't
propagate 2002::/16 in BGP. They provide an immediate added value to the
local IPv6 users.

I believe it is a whole lot easier to provide "private" relays, for
local use only, rather than public relays, for the whole Internet.
However, backbone ISP have a built-in incentive to provide these relays:
the relays create traffic, and that traffic ends up being billed to the
second tier ISP who send packets to the backbone.

So, if I understand you correctly, what you're aiming at is that
everytime a 6to4 user A with a IPv4 ISPa wants to communicate
with an native IPv6 user B with an IPv6 ISPb:
- IPv4 ISPa has deployed a 6to4-to-native relay
- IPv6 ISPb has deployed a native-to-6to4 relay or has a peering agreement
   with someone who offer native-to-6to4 relay service.

This is an operational issue, are IPv6 ISPs doing this today?
If not, why?

I did some measurements of the number of 6to4 relays, including
private ones. I've included relevant part of my message to v6ops
below. The count was done on 2 July. (If anyone would like this
written up in more detail, let me know...)

	David.

If anyone is interested, I had a go at counting 6to4 relay routers
from the IPv6 side. I did this by tracerout6ing with a 6to4 source
address and then using tcpdump to catch the IPv4 addresses of
relay-routers that was used to encapsulate the replies. To decide
where to traceroute to, I used the ::1 addresses of each prefix in
the IPv6 BGP table (as seen from HEAnet this morning).

After doing this, I got replies encapsulated 26 different source
IPv4 addresses. One was the anycast address and I had a go at
guessing the countries of the remainder (AU:1 CZ:1 DE:1 FI:1 IE:1
JP:1 KR:3 LT:2 NL:3 NO:1 PT:1 SE:2 TH:1 TW:1 UK:2 US:3).

About 1/4 of the response packets came from the 6to4 anycast address,
so it seems to be worth trying to figure out how many relays it
represents. Looking at the histogram of TTLs in the IPv4 header,
it looks like there are at least 3 or 4.

To try to get a better idea, I tracerout6ed to a 6to4 address using
a routing header to get the packet to first go to nodes that had
had replies encapsulated with the anycast address. The second last
hop of these traceroutes should help identify the 6to4 relay.

This produced 27 IPv6 addresses, but sevral of them looked like
they were assigned to the same machine. Looking at the /32s that
these IPv6 addresses are in suggests that there are actually about
12 distinct relays in this group. Looking them up in whois shows
that two of the /32s are in switch, so we're probably looking at
11 (CH:1 DE:3 EE:1 FI:1 IE:1 JP:1 NL:1 UK:1 US:1).

In total, that's about 33, if you take into account a possible
overlap of 2 or 3.

[Naturally, I may have missed lots of relays that aren't visable
from the route to the ::1 address within a prefix...]

I don't see the point of section 1.2 it is commentary and it is
imperative that this document just report the facts.  I do not agree or
disagree with the statements I just don't see its value, and worst case
it could affect the objectivity view of the readers impression of the
document.

3.1.1 This entire series of documents should not make judgement calls as
is done with 1122 and 1123 (should be written wordage).  It should just
say has IPv6 dependency which was done well in the next set of documents
we have been asked to review.  Please remove all recommendations or
perceived recommendations in this document series.

3.1.2 Same comment as 3.1.1

3.1.9 A6 records are dead.

3.1.11 Same comment as 3.1.1

3.1.22 Same comment as 3.1.1

3.2.1 DHCPv6 will be RFC 3315 very soon as a note.  Its in RFC editor
queue.

3.3.25 Same comment as 3.1.1

3.3.71 Same comment as 3.1.1. and this one has capitalized MUST (not
good)

References to Mobile IPv6 need to use draft-24 or say RFC PS is eminant
and also could be used for DHCPv6 references too.

If the wording is fixed as I state an issue in 3.1.1. then this is ready
to go.

It is a very good piece of work too.

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-v6ops-ipv4survey-subip-01

This document is fine and the wording is good.  e.g. IPv4 address
dependency is used not statements of what to do.

I am fine with this moving to INFO.

This is good piece of work too.  The detail of what needs to be done is
very good but it should be left as that an explanation.  There are many
instances again of my comment in INTRO 3.1.1 above.  Just go through the
doc and just report what is missing.  Make no recommendations with
SHOULD, MAY, or MUST and this is fine.

I think the INTRO should be fixed before the others can move to INFO.

thanks

Not necessarily; the tunnel could also terminate at the ISP's NAT.

To be honest, I think both forms of tunnels offers the ISPs a good 
starting point. Given the current levels of bandwidth consumed by IPv6 
traffic (a large carrier told me they had magnitudes more OSI traffic 
for ADM management than IPv6 traffic) I think that we have to realize 
that carriers will not start rolling out native links of the same 
bandwidth as they do for IPv4 - especially with current revenue levels 
from IPv6 services.

The alternative is dual-stack, but if I would be a carrier I would be 
very reluctant to roll-out dual-stack software (or at least to activate 
it) on my routers.

Tunneling gives the ISPs the advantage that they can activate IPv6 at 
the edge and start in small scale and bind it all together across the 
core. Christian is right in saying that this potentially (not to say in 
real life) gives less performance and higher RTT. However, I think is 
something that market demand will have to take care of.

I'm curious, what do you see as the main reasons for this?

Experience? :-) The two vendors have enough of a problem to get v4 
packets from interface A to interface B, and that is with customers 
that are paying for SLAs...

I know it's being done and on pretty large networks as well. But I also 
hear people that are having problems in doing so.

Not sure if I understood the point above correctly, but there are 
several reasons that ISPs use not to deploy dual-stack...the biggest is 
simply fear of the unknown ;-)

Actually, in the past we (FCCN, the portuguese NREN) had several 
problems with Cisco routers, due to unstable "stable" IOS versions.  
But, after a bit of tackling, dual-stack is running indeed. Juniper 
routers were a great help to deploy dual-stack in an operacional 
environment. There were no problems at all.

Absolutely. It's probably the largest reason. But even then tunnels are 
a great help for ISPs to see and learn.

Glad to hear. I have heard opposite experiences but this will probably 
vary with your network topology, size, equipment in use etc. Just as 
for v4.

Operational errors (like "wrong IP address configured on interface" or
"routing protocol configuration things" or "correct v4 address in DNS but
v6 address wrong" or so) hit in quite surprising ways - you test, you 
run traceroute and ping, all looks fine, and then you realize that you 
traceroute'd only v4 while v6 is broken, or vice versa.

Of course all this is solveable, but it means "more room for errors",
and usually these do happen.

(We're in the process of converting the v4-only network to dual-stack,
and it's quite a challenge)

There are many networks that have gone dual stack, so what you're saying
is we need more operational experience feedback of the problems, rather
than just the success stories.   The early adoptors are the US and European
research networks and backbones.   I think they've been instrumental in
helping Cisco, Juniper et al iron out many of the problems to make 
deployment less problematic (but by no means straightforward) for ISPs.

Most operational errors are because ISPs do not have guidelines on how 
to deploy IPv6. It is quite a big task, given that everything has to be 
changed and somehow, the connectivity should be kept at any cost. Added 
to that, there's the addressing space allocation...
 Also, this is still a field where in operational terms there is still 
room to do a lot.

It took us almost 5 years ;-) to complete the transition to dual-stack, 
mostly because the equipment did not fully behave as it should. So, in 
fact we had to acquire different equipment, and not only upgrade 
software. But, we're a non-commercial ISP. It is obviously harder for a 
commercial ISP to justify a full upgrade to the bakbone. But, given that 
we are speaking of dual-stack and not of IPv6-only ;-), it should not be 
such a big fuss, given that in the worst-case, it can still run as IPv4 ;-)

You can look at several examples in Europe. GEANT, SURFNET or RENATER
already dual stacked. They have rather large network. I am sure, that they
had slight problems running dual-stack in the beginning, but they run
successfully now. On the other hand for example at HUNGARNET we also have
rather large IPv6 network, but currently we cannot run dual stack since
there is no IPv6 support at all for large number of our routers (Cisco
7600).  It seems, that we have to find alternative solution...

Completely agree. NRENs are in the group of ISPs with more IPv6 
experience. And, it is a fact that this helped vendors to tackle 
problems. Also, given that NRENs are quite different in topology and 
equipment, their experience will for sure be benefitial as an example on 
how to deploy IPv6 for other ISPs...

There is also the fact that NRENs does not have to generate ROI for 
their deployment, while many ISPs are struggling to do ROI on IPv4. 
Which again is a driver for a step-by-step approach.

It is a fact that NRENs are non-profit organizations, but they do have 
to justify where the money goes ;-), whether we speak of v4, v6, 
services and so on. So, there is always a need for a ROI, independently 
of the technology...

Anyway, this is possibly off-topic ;-). AS for the online topic I 
believe we all agree that:

1) the transition takes a long time, requires some investment, and the 
profit is still not clear (in commercial terms, of course...)
2) there are still lots of issues with the equipment and software used;
3) a step-by-step approach is necessary
4) feedback from ISPs (whether they are commercial or not) is required, 
so others can more easily deploy IPv6...
5) feedback from ISPs to vendors is also required, so problems can be 
solved...

Hi,
    I am working on IMS, on transition of IPv4 to IPv6, and I need help.
    Where can I find explained process of activation PDP context, depending
on IP version.
    If you know some file or link, I would be grateful. 
         Thanks in advance

Hi,
    I am working on IMS, on transition of IPv4 to IPv6, and I need help.
    Where can I find explained process of activation PDP context, depending
on IP version.
    If you know some file or link, I would be grateful. 
         Thanks in advance

Hi,
      thanks for your answer. I have I more question, If you maybe know the
answer. If UE is dual-stack, is there a way that UE can say to IMS that it
is dual-stack?
      If you know some file or link, I would be grateful. 
         Thanks in advance

If you are still talking about 3GPP/UMTS, IMS is IPv6-only.

i guess that depends on whether you are locked into a router vendor
who lacks support of ipv6 in their hardware.

Oh, OK, well that's a fair point - I thought you were suggesting something
else :)

Is there a good reference on what the commercial deployments in Asia are
running, the services offered, number of end users etc?   Would be good 
to see some info to learn from.

Hi all,

During the Mobile IP WG meeting in Austria, Hesham and myself brought up the
issue of mobility management for dual stack nodes. 

Thomas N. requested that we put together a problem statement so that we can
discuss the issue; the draft below was published today - it is short and I
hope to the point - so do read it :)

I have copied v6ops since I think this is a v4 - v6 migration issue as well
as Mobile IPv4 and Mobile IPv6 issue. 

Let us know what you think.

George

This draft discusses the issues associated with mobility management 
for dual stack mobile nodes. Currently, two mobility management 
protocols are defined for IPv4 and IPv6. Deploying both in a dual 
stack mobile node introduces a number of inefficiencies. Deployment 
and operational issues motivate the use of a single mobility 
management protocol. This draft discusses such motivations. The draft 
also hints on how current MIPv4 and MIPv6 could be extended so that 
they can support mobility management for a dual stack node.

Hi George,

Thank you for writing this draft, this is an interesting perspective.
There is one point you do not mention: what if the IPv6 node is using
directly or indirectly IPv6 in IPv4 tunnels for its IPv6 connectivity?
For example, it may derive a 6to4 prefix from its home address
and then uses MIPv4....
There are extra complexities here that I'm not sure I fully understand.
Is it a problem space that you intend to cover?

	- Alain.

To some extent , yes. Or what the cost of getting that hardware is.

Alain,

For mobility a node needs a stable address i.e. the Home Address (HoA). All
communications are directed to that HoA and a Home Agent (HA) intercepts and
forwards to the node's care-of-address (CoA).

Now how the Mobile node comes to own a given HoA is not so important from
this perspective. It could be native v6 or it could be 6to4...I do not think
it matters as long as there is an HA that can intercept packets sent to that
HoA and forward them to the CoA.

Now, when the mobile is  not at home but in some other network, there is an
issue about what kind of v4/v6 support there is in the foreign network. The
nice thing about Mobile IP is that it is based on tunnels and thus it
provides natural way of tunneling over networks that are not compatible with
the mobile ...if only Mobile IP could configure v4 over v6 and v6 over v4
tunnels (as opposed to just v4 over v4 and v6 over v6 tunnels). A dual stack
mobile in a v4 only foreign network would then be able to create a v4&v6
over v4 (forward and reverse) tunnel with its HA and thus maintain all its
connectivity.

George

roamers on other networks?

This sounds like a lot of IP VPNs to create and maintain across multiple
networks for people who roam, and unnecessary for those that don't. We are
not talking dial-up users or even data users, jut straight 3G, GPRS, or WAP
users.

I suspect that that the issues are complex and interrelated thus
trying to make a black and white distinction between automatic and
configured tunnels is hard.
Thus I've tried to put down different aspects of tunnels below and taken
the liberty of using tunnel broker as an example where "configured"
can actually look the same to the user as "automatic".

1. IPv6 tunnels on by default

Some vendors might want to make IPv6 easier for the users by turning 
on IPv6 tunneling by default (for instance where there is IPv4 connectivity
and no native IPv6 connectivity). Other vendors might prefer a "click
here to enable IPv6 tunneling". I think this is only implementation
issue except in the case of tunneling across NATs.

1b. IPv6 tunnels across NATs on by default

Tunneling across NATs, which by accident will tunnel across many firewall
configurations, presumably means that the IETF shouldn't endorse  a "default
tunnel across NATs" approach but instead suggest that the user be involved in
turning this on. Also, there might be a reasonable requirement that it should
be easy for network admins to prevent such tunneling by having a simple filter
(e.g. filter on a single UDP port.)

2. Single knob "enable IPv6 tunnel" for user

I think this can be implemented for a large number of tunneling technologies.
For instance, a tunnel broker client could have a list public tunnel brokers
and use ping times to select one. Or it would be possible to define an anycast
address for the tunnel broker setup (not used for the tunneled packets).

3. Registration and authentication of user

Some operators of infrastructure for tunnels, whether they fall in
what Christian calls "automatic" or "configured", might want to be
able to know who is using their infrastructure. Also, in the case
of DoS attacks or other issues such operators might want to be able
to point at "the source of that was this IPv4 address" to help
tracking down the problems.
On the other hand there might be folks, such as ISPs, which want to 
be able to provide tunneling infrastructure for a subset of IPv4 addresses
(such as the subscribers of the ISP) without requiring any explicit 
registration and authentication of the user.

Thus it would seem good if there either is one approach which can
optionally do registration and authentication at tunnel
establishment time, or there is one approach with and one without
registration and authentication.

4. Simple for ISPs to deploy

I'm not sure I understand the comparison here between the so called "automatic"
(6to4 and Teredo) and so called "configured" (tunnel broker or similar)
tunnels. With the latter the ISP can make sure they are only providing service
to their subscribers. Is the same true for 6to4 relays and teredo servers?

5. Providing visibility for those providing infrastructure

A non-technical issue is whether entities that provide some infrastructure 
for tunneling ("servers" or "relays") that is not limited to
users with which they have a subscriber relationship, are visible to the 
end users i.e. that the can derive some name recognition for their help.

6. Avoiding traffic concentration at some "server"/"relay"

One of the benefits of 6to4 and teredo is that traffic between nodes
that use that scheme can avoid going through a single point.
I think that this is really separate from terms like "automatic" vs.
"configured", and it would be good to understand the tradeoffs in
this space better. For instance, it seems to me that this benefit goes away
when only one of the communicating parties implement 6to4/teredo.
Also, at least in the case of 6to4, this benefit is accomplished at
the expense of making certain other things more difficult (such as having
multiple 6to4 routers between some cloud and the rest of the Internet).
Finally, there are operational implications of this type of "short-cut
routing". With tunnel broker configured tunnels I understand how to debug
problems thus I think if ISPs want to use them their staff can understand how
to debug  them as well (try a traceroute to/from the IPv4 address of the
tunnel endpoint, etc). And if things don't work one can try switching to
different tunnel broker.
With the shortcuts provided by teredo and 6to4 it is much harder to determine
whether it is an IPv4 problem (IPv4 might work to/from a relay without working
on the direct path) or IPv6 (IPv6 tunneling might work to/from a relay
without working to/from a particular IPv6 peer). The teredo interactions
with the large variation of NAT behavior makes this even harder.
[And combining this with anycast to simplify #2 above adds to the troubles
to debug.]
So color me concerned - I don't think we need the equivalent NHRP for IPv6
tunnels.

---

Perhaps there are more facets of the "automatic" vs. "configured" distinction
than the ones I've listed above.
But hopefully trying to tease apart the different facets makes
it easier to come to a shared understanding of the issues.

This is an interesting discussion of the issues (well, it was, but
I deleted it to save bits). But I'm not sure that the WG has to, or
should, make a choice. The network is already telling us that both
tunnel brokers and 6to4 attract users. I guess the jury is still out
on Teredo. But I don't think it's for us to make a philosophical
decision here. We will need to decide whether to adopt Teredo, but that
should drop out of the scenario analysis as a pragmatic decision.

Brian,

You seem to be making a "the market will decide" argument with respect
to 6to4 and tunnel brokers.
Is that correct?

I find it disconcerting that you didn't want to contribute to the understanding
of the issues (with apply to all tunneling approaches - 6to4, teredo, tunnel
brokers) and instead deleted the email to "save bits". That doesn't bode well
for making forward progress.

Sigh
  Erik

=> I don't understand the "multiple networks" argument. The "VPN" is just
an IPsec SA pair (MIPv6 uses two pairs) between a mobile and a fix point
(the mobile-ip Home Agent).

   We are not talking dial-up users or even data users, jut straight

Not quite. My point is more that since the (so far revenue-free) market
already seems to want both solutions, I don't see that a decision is needed.
Deployment has moved on since the v6ops charter was written.

I think you and Christian have pretty much covered the arguments, and 
I don't have anything new to add. These arguments will be very useful, 
when looking at the scenarios, to decide whether the WG should adopt Teredo 
as a work item.

Francis,

Not all is solved with VPN tunnels even if you manage to renegotiate the VPN
tunnel automatically when the mobile moves...BTW, I think this is a worthy
goal too and there are products already that support that kind of idea
combining MIPv4 and IPSEC.

There are other people, however, that would like to use Mobile IP (v4 or v6)
for local mobility management in a wireless operator kind of
environment....in which case it would be preferable not to have to use two
mobility management protocols.

You not being interested in that approach does not make this a non-issue
:--)

George

   Are you recommending that all mobile phone operators should create IP
VPN's
   for all phones on their network and to maintain them for visitors and
   roamers on other networks?
   
=> you already have a "VPN" between the MN and the HA in MIPv6, so I feel
free to recommend this (:-).

   This sounds like a lot of IP VPNs to create and maintain across multiple
   networks for people who roam, and unnecessary for those that don't.

=> I don't understand the "multiple networks" argument. The "VPN" is just an
IPsec SA pair (MIPv6 uses two pairs) between a mobile and a fix point (the
mobile-ip Home Agent).

   We are not talking dial-up users or even data users, jut straight
   3G, GPRS, or WAP users.
   
=> we are talking about IP users.

When a dual-stack MIPv6 MN encounters a v4-only foregin network,
I see (at least) three possibilities for the v6-in-v4 tunnel endpoint:

 1) the tunnel endpoint resides in the home network; perhaps
    even co-located with the HA (potential use case for configured
    tunnels)

 2) the tunnel endpoint resides in the visited netwok (potential
    use-case for isatap)

 3) the tunnel endpoint resides in some 3rd party network
    (potential use-case for tunnel broker)

In any case, the v6-in-v4 tunnel should present an MTU large enough
to encapsulate 1280 bytes PLUS the size of the outermost IPv6 header
so that the inner MIPv6  IPv6-in-IPv6 tunneling does not incur harmful
fragmentation (see RFC 2473, section 7). But, most v6-in-v4 tunneling
specifications cap their MTUs at 1280 bytes. Does this seem like a
potential performance issue waiting to bite us?

Well, I think there is a lot of confusion in that space.
We have a number of early adopters who are using both techniques.
However, the number of 6to4 relays and tunnel brokers on the planet is 
still very small,
and the traffic is marginal. I think it is still early in this process.
IMHO, the jury is still out for many ISPs who would like to offer some 
kind of sparse,
commercial IPv6 service without deploying a full scale native 
infrastructure.
So I think it is still pertinent for the IETF to have an opinion on the 
matter
and to recommend one approach versus the other, or maybe both if it can 
be proven
that there are technical reasons to do so.

Call me skeptic, but I am a little concern with the potential effect of 
double or
even worse  triple tunneling: Mipv6/Ipv6/Mipv4/IPv4
and I'm sure we could build scenarios even more frightening with various
combination of encapsulation.
I'm not worried about MTU, but about RTT and debugging.

This is pretty close to recommending operational procedures, and frankly
that is not what the IETF does best. The IETF shines when it produces
sound specifications, or thorough technical analyses. But operation
practices are better left to practicians, which may be another way of
saying "to the market."

Perhaps except to the extent that MTU and RTT/debugging

You have a point. So, let me rephrase:
I think it is still pertinent for the IETF to make a thorough technical 
analysis
of each approach.

Given that this group is supposed to:
1. Solicit input from network operators and users to identify
  operational or security issues with the IPv4/IPv6 Internet, and
  determine solutions or workarounds to those issues.  

it sounds like it should gather information about the issues when deploying
existing transition mechanisms, and not just do nothing as you seem to suggest.

And the charter has:
The IPv6 Operations Working Group (v6ops) develops guidelines for the
operation of a shared IPv4/IPv6 Internet and provides guidance for
network operators on how to deploy IPv6 into existing IPv4-only
networks, as well as into new network installations.

So there seems to be disconnects between both of your views and 
the charter.

Hi Wolfgang, 

We didn't address solutions yet but it's a good time to
talk about it.

=> Only for RO messages between the MN and CN (HOTI and HOT)

 I

=> This setup would be applicable to HOTI/HOT messages
only, unless the MN decides to protect all traffic through
the HA, which is not a MIP issue. But for HOTI/HOT this would
be required according to MIPv6.

Alain,

I am not sure where Mipv6/Ipv6/Mipv4/IPv4 comes from in your e-mail and I am
not even sure what it means. MIPv4 and MIPv6 are signaling protocols....and
do not introduce overhead in the data path.

We can always complicate things but why not deal with the simple and by far
most important issue.

Today Mobile IP signals HoA to CoA bindings of the same version resulting in
either IPv4 over IPv4 encapsulation or IPv6 over IPv6 encapsulation.

All I am suggesting is that Mobile IP should be able to signal HoA to CoA
bindings of different versions so that IPv4 over IPv6 encapsulation or IPv4
over IPv6 encapsulation is also possible.

Call me skeptic, but I am a little concern with the potential effect of 
double or
even worse  triple tunneling: Mipv6/Ipv6/Mipv4/IPv4
and I'm sure we could build scenarios even more frightening with various
combination of encapsulation. I'm not worried about MTU, but about RTT and
debugging.

Fred,

I am not sure what you are saying...a dual stack MIPv6 MN encountering a v4
network will have no hope in sending a MIPv6 BU to its v6HA in any way that
would allow real mobility.

I guess one can imagine that such a mobile detecting a v4 only network could
start going through the ngtrans tools and see what may work so that it can
somehow get an IPv6 address and then tunnel a MIPv6 BU to its HA....as I
said not real mobility.

Then I do not understand why you talk about this as if there needs to be
"IPv6 over IPv6 over IPv4" tunneling involved. If the HoA is IPv6 and the
CoA is IPv4 and MIP could be extended to create a binding between the two
then an "IPv6 over IPv4" tunnel would be created.

When a dual-stack MIPv6 MN encounters a v4-only foregin network, I see (at
least) three possibilities for the v6-in-v4 tunnel endpoint:

 1) the tunnel endpoint resides in the home network; perhaps
    even co-located with the HA (potential use case for configured
    tunnels)

 2) the tunnel endpoint resides in the visited netwok (potential
    use-case for isatap)

 3) the tunnel endpoint resides in some 3rd party network
    (potential use-case for tunnel broker)

In any case, the v6-in-v4 tunnel should present an MTU large enough to
encapsulate 1280 bytes PLUS the size of the outermost IPv6 header so that
the inner MIPv6  IPv6-in-IPv6 tunneling does not incur harmful fragmentation
(see RFC 2473, section 7). But, most v6-in-v4 tunneling specifications cap
their MTUs at 1280 bytes. Does this seem like a potential performance issue
waiting to bite us?

Erik,

First of all let me apologise for the tone of my "deleted to save bits"
comment, which sounded dismissive of the discussion between you and
Christian. That wasn't my intention - in fact I have saved that discussion
with every intention of referring to it in the future.

Secondly, I do think that the v6ops charter is probably slightly out
of date - which is good news, since it means that IPv6 deployment
has made progress. I don't think the out-of-dateness is serious
enough to open a rechartering discussion now. 

We should certainly perform the critical review of existing solutions 
and improve them if we can. And even though it's not in the charter,
that should probably include tunnel brokers IMHO.

What I think lies outside the IETF's power is to tell network
operators which solutions to adopt, although of course we can
choose which ones the IETF specifies.

	for native-to-6to4, there's no way to protect from abuse (since
	2002::/16 has to be advertised, more-specific route is not permitted).
	how do you address the problem? (pekka's draft outlines the problem
	very well)

	relay router in our backbone, but we end up rejecting it due to the
	possibility of abuse, and the impact of abuse (and the lack of human
	resource to monitor/track down the source of abuse).  i'm very

Which type of abuse are you concerned with? We can deploy native-to-6to4
relays in several modes:

 - host specific=20
	(host is multi-homed to 6to4, local routing entry to 2002::/16)
 - AS specific=20
	(some routers act as relay, export a route to 2002::/16 in IGP)
 - Across multiple AS
	(export a route to 2002::/16 in BGP)

The first two modes don't seem particularly prone to abuse. Host
specific relays certainly are not an issue, and the abuse to AS specific
relay fall in the general category of "abusing peering agreements",
which is by no means specific to 6to4. I agree that exporting a route
through BGP is hard to control, as the route can be re-exported by
peering ASes. But, again, this fall in the category of "peering abuses",
which can be contained by proper peering contracts.

Yes, this is the scenario I was referring to. First order of business is 
to get
some level of IPv6 connectivity in the visited network even if ip-proto-41
is required.

The IPv6-in-IPv6-in-IPv4 part comes when 1) the HA needs to tunnel IPv6 
packets
to a MN in an IPv4-only visited network or 2) the MN in an IPv4-only network
needs to reverse-tunnel IPv6 packets through the HA to reach a CN. Not sure
how you mean about  MIP being extended to create a binding between IPv6
and IPv4. Do you see a way around the nested tunneling? (And, is there a
specification somewhere that tells how to do it?)

	we are afraid of our native-to-6to4 device being used as open relay
	of packet (bullet 3 in the above, of course).  the IPv4 source address
	will be ours, so we will get compliants from random people, because of
	malicious traffic from somewhere to 2002::/16.  running 6to4 relay
	router is like running open relay smtp server.

The comparison with an open relay smtp server is a bit excessive. In the
native to 6to4 direction, the 6to4 relay will send over IPv4 a 6to4
packet (protocol type 41), in which the payload will the original IPv6
packet. The main attack through such gateway is to send packets to IPv4
nodes, which can be either 6to4 or legacy.=20

The attacks to 6to4 nodes are basically the same as attacks over IPv6 to
native nodes. From that point of view, running the relay is pretty much
equivalent to providing BGP peering to a third party network, and does
not seem to create a particular type of concern.

The attacks to legacy nodes can only be DoS attacks -- the legacy nodes
don't understand 6to4, and will not understand the packets. However, if
the attack is serious, someone will analyze the content and find out the
source IPv6 address. If the source address cannot be spoofed, then the
attacker will be caught. If the source address can be spoofed, then the
"open relay" issue is caused by the lack of filtering at the origin, not
by 6to4.
