All,
Back on May 13, 2011, I posted a message regarding a new Internet
Draft adding more delegations to AS112, mainly in keeping with keeping
RFC 6304 in sync with the registry provided for in RFC 6303. After some
time, I'm ready to push out -03 of that draft. One of the bigger changes
I have made is to include proposed multicast documentation prefixes. That
and more will be found in the draft.
Those of you who followed the original message thread will also
remember that the original draft was split into two, one as a directive to
IANA and the other a more general treatise on care and feeding of AS112
nodes.
Aside from making notes about lameness, etc., one thing that kept
coming up in previous DNSOP wroking group meetings was a method for how,
barring adopting something like Warren Kumari's idea, delegations to and
removed from AS112 nodes should be carried out. To date, there's no real
established process except for spreading the word via this mailing list
and the AS112 web site. There's also Paul Vixie's idea plus some sample
code he pointed to in one of the old threads.
For example, how does one request a delegation for AS112 nodes?
Should there be a review? Who does the reviewing? Since RFC 6303's
registry is a permanent one, should AS112 nodes strictly follow what's in
that registry, or have an RFC create a separate registry that allows for
temporary delegations of an experimental nature and results in a more
flexible option? Some things for AS112 operators to ponder while the
draft I'm preparing makes some attempt at a proposal.
Once I have this draft ready, I'll post here for folks to bash on.
Hopefully within the next week or so.
Thanks,
wfms
