Multi-ipv6 support (multi-router, multi-interface, multi-prefix) IETF draft

Hi, I have posted a revision of draft-gont-v6ops-multi-ipv6. This document contains the problem statement regarding the support of multiple routers, multiple interfaces, and multiple prefixes by IPv6 hosts. This revision polishes the text quite a bit, and incorporates two "failure" scenarios that should be supported, such that if you have a working set {source address, next-hop, RDNSS), you can survive network outages.

Name: draft-gont-v6ops-multi-ipv6 Revision: 02 Title: Problem Statement about IPv6 Support for Multiple Routers, Multiple Interfaces, and Multiple Prefixes Date: 2025-03-03 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 15 URL: https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-gont-v6ops-multi-ipv6-02.txt Status: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-gont-v6ops-multi-ipv6/ HTMLized: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-gont-v6ops-multi-ipv6 Diff: https://author-tools.ietf.org/iddiff?url2=draft-gont-v6ops-multi-ipv6-02 Abstract: This document discusses current limitations in IPv6 Stateless Address Auto-configuration (SLAAC) that prevent support for common multi- router, multi-interface, and multi-prefix scenarios. It provides discussion on the challenges that these scenarios represent, and why a solution in this space is warranted. Finally, it specifies a number of common scenarios that any solution in this space should be able to address. The IETF Secretariat
