[GLOBAL-V6] PI space under IPv6



 

All,

      There has much discussion on how to implement PI space in IPv6. I would like present an administrative solution to PI space for IPv6.

      Please indulge me if this seems simplistic, we could reserve the IP4 space as largely PI.

 

I will explain;

 

-         Since we already have most of the PI space reserved under IPv4, it would be easier to continue to use the allocated IPv4 space as PI under the translated IPv6 numbering scheme.

-         Routing tables as a result will be kept within a manageable size.

-         No renumbering will be required by end-users, enhancing migration from IPv4 to IPv6.

-         Multi-homed users or entities will not cause delays for ISPs migrating to IPv6.

 

This is something to think about, just an idea.
