Shim6 is work in progress and may be used as an argument to adjust adress-assignment policies sometime in the future. If we want ipv6 deployed today we have to provide a mechanism to support requirements about redundancy and independence from individual providers. > I am not sure what you mean with > "network-wide routing policy implementation".... I guess this relates to supporting infrastructure necessary for shim6 to support or replace current ipv4 technology like load-balancing, filtering etc. If standards are defined today and everyone agree to implement them asap it will still take years before such products are available and a commercially viable alternative. Shim6 has a potential to provide improved "granularity" in traffic management (individual path-selection for each source-destination HBA-pair) but that is irrelevant until the technology is actually there. Bottom line: it's fine to develop technology for the future, but operational procedures and policies must be supported by current technology. //per -- Per Heldal heldal at eml.cc
