Internet-Draft IPv6 Site Renumbering Gap Analysis May 2013
Abstract
This document briefly introduces the existing mechanisms that could
be utilized for IPv6 site renumbering and tries to cover most of the
explicit issues and requirements of IPv6 renumbering. Through the gap
analysis, the document provides a basis for future works that
identify and develop solutions or to stimulate such development as
appropriate. The gap analysis is organized by the main steps of a
renumbering process.
