> What the enterprise folks need is IPv6 champions, like yourself, like =
Lee, to user stand their use case that even if you don't end up =
deploying it on your own network you will show up at the IETF, or at =
least participate on the IETF mailing lists and help them get what they =
need, so IPv6 deployment can proceed apace. If you really don't think =
there is harm, help them go get what they (think they?) need.
I don=92t think there=92s harm to including the option for RIO in =
DHCPv6.
I think there is great harm in continuing the use case presented =
earlier.
I have yet to see a use case from enterprise that actually requires RIO =
or default route in DHCPv6, and I have seen many many use cases.
Most of them are, actually, better solved through education, so I tend =
to focus my efforts in that area.
If you can find someone who wants to pay me to plead the enterprise =
cases to the IETF, I suppose I might be interested in that job if it =
came with the right offer, but for now, that=92s not what I get paid to =
do.
