Technical Summary
This document specifies auto-configuration of OSPFv3 routers in
certain environments that require auto-configuration, such as in a
small IPv6 network like a home network. To facilitate
auto-configuration, this document specifies the default
configuration, allows more flexibility in some verifications
required by the OSPFv3 specification, and also describes a
possible collision as well as the mechanism to resolve the
collision.
Working Group Summary
The OSPFv3 router ID collision detection and resolution was a
heated point of discussion a few months ago, but the issue has
been resolved by IETF 89. The technical aspect of the document,
both within the document and mailing list discussions, have been
stable for the last six months.
Document Quality
This document has been a WG document for a little under two years.
It is stable, without changes to the technical solution for more
than six months. There are also two implementations based on this
document already. There is potentially a third implementation
which implements parts of this draft.
Personnel
Helen Chen is the Document Shepherd.
Alia Atlas is the Responsible Area Director.
