Re: Microtik and IPv6 If MT had something like that, I think they'd be pretty valuable right now.
An existing protocol that can do something similar is PPP, which allows you to assign any arbitrary IP address to a PPP session, and use a routing protocol to distribute reachability information for that IP around the network. You can get about as close as possible to 100% efficiency that way.
PPPoE is an extension of, and allows you to do precisely that.
edit: As for OSPF and IPv6, you need to run two instances of OSPF to distribute IPv4 and IPv6 around your network. OSPFv2 for IPv4, and OSPFv3 for IPv6.
IS-IS, which works pretty much exactly the same way as OSPF (same algorithm), can do both protocols with a single instance. |
