This draft presents a method for small sites to achieve multihoming in IPv6 without requiring PI address or BGP, maintaining end-to-end transparency. It addresses security concerns examined in RFC4218, sharing threats present in IPv6 multihoming solutions. The revision clarifies the concept of multihoming and emphasizes the goal to provide a non-BGP multihoming approach. Feedback from the 1st WGLC led to the removal of "NAT66" from the title, reflecting a generic approach that does not rely on a specific NAT mechanism. Future steps include further verifications via another WGLC round.

IPv6 Multihoming without Network Address Translation draft-ietf-v6ops-multihoming-without-ipv6nat-00
1st WGLC ended. • Thank you for many feedbacks. • We’ve just submitted a renamed revision, titled draft-ietf-v6ops-multihoming-without-ipv6nat-00 • “NAT66” was removed from the title, because it does not assume any specific mechanism of NAT. • This revision hopefully addressed all of the issues pointed out during WGLC.
definition of “multihoming” • Not a few people misinterpreted “multihoming” in this document, and assumed BGP way of multihoming. • The goal of this document is to provide a multihoming method for a small site that cannot deal with PI address or BGP operation, and without breaking end-to-end transparency of IPv6. • Which was clarified in intro. and elsewhere.
security consideration was expanded • RFC4218 examines threats that are inherent to all IPv6 multihoming solutions, especially not routing(BGP) based ones. • So, this document shares most of the threats studies in RFC 4218. • Additionally, some possible threats are described that may be introduced by policy providing approaches.
2nd WGLC ? • About next step • Another round of WGLC ? • Just the verifications from people who gave us feedbacks ?
