[6bone] v6 and ADSL

[Nir Arad]

Hi Christian,

If I understand ISATAP correctly, you need a globally unique /64 prefix.
I assume Dan does not have one, and would want to rely on his (globally unique, dynamically assigned) IPv4 address.
This IPv4 address can be used to form a 6to4 address, and connect to a 6to4 relay.

Now, assuming again, that Dan does not have a home network with private addresses behind his ADSL modem (but only one
host), and since he needs 6to4 anyway, what would be the reasoning in using ISATAP in such configuration?

Of course, if those assumptions don't hold, I do see the point in ISATAP, but I am curious if there is a scenario I'm
missing under the above assumptions.

Regards,
