Jen

I am good with the proposed format which gives flexibility for current and
future implementations then implementing the suffix now and better
representation of lifetime.  So I agree to not doing anything now since
"non /96" use cases are unlikely.  Since many implementations exist with
nat64 w/ /96 all 0s suffix that adding the non zero suffix now would be
complicated as existing implementations and resulting interoperability
issues with a variety of mixed options formats  and as Bob mentioned
changing the specification would be the easier then all the options
permutations of resulting implementations.

Thank you

&gt; <br>
&gt;&gt; One last question I had is on the 4 byte prefix option which contains \
the<br> &gt;&gt; IPv4 address that would be embedded per RFC6052 that is being \
removed - does that not<br> &gt;&gt; have to be present for DNS64 IPv6 RR synthesis \

&gt; good question and that&#39;s exactly why the format we have in the draft<br>
&gt; still has all 128 bits - in case we need the suffix.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Currently the suffix is expected to be 0 but RFC6052 says<br>
&gt; &#39;These bits are reserved for future extensions<br>
&gt;     and SHOULD be set to zero.   Address translators who receive IPv4-<br>
&gt;     embedded IPv6 addresses where these bits are not zero SHOULD ignore<br>
&gt;     the bits&#39; value and proceed as if the bits&#39; value were zero.   \
(Future<br> &gt;     extensions may specify a different behavior.)&#39;.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Good question - so the benefit of the format in the draft is that we<br>
&gt; can encode the suffix if needed (in addition to better representation<br>

&gt; Ole, Bob, what do you think?<br>
&gt; There is no case for non-zero suffix now but shall we assume that it&#39;s<br>
&gt; not going to change, esp. providing RFC6052 allows that?<br>
<br>
Seems to me that to start using non-zero suffixs several IETF specifications and, of \
course, many implementations would have to change.     There would need to be a \
strategy for how to deploy it given the resulting mixed implementations.     Doing a \
"bis" of this specification would be the easy part.<br> <br>
I lean to not doing anything now, seems unlikely to happen to me.<br>
