Re: [Wg-ipv6-guide] (ToC-6) Definition of a 'site'



Dear All,

I have revised my draft for (ToC-6) Definition of a 'site', in
accordance with Fujisaki-san's comment. Please find it as below.

---
------------------------
6. Definition of a 'site'

An end site is defined as an end user who has a business relationship,
i.e. has a contract, with a service provider which is defined in
current IPv6 policy 2.9.

The end user (the end site) cannot re-assign IP addresses to other
organization out of its assigned IP address space.

The number of sites is counted in accordance with the number of
contracts.  Each 'end site' is eligible to receive /48 assignment in
general case.

For example;

(Single site)

- A home(corporate) user who has a single contract with a service
provider.

- A home(corporate) user who has multiple devices to connect the
internet, but has only one contract with a service provider.


(Multiple sites)

- A home (corporate) user who has multiple contracts with a service
provider.

- A home (corporate) user who has multiple separate networks, and they
are not connected each other because each network has different
management policy, even if they are in the same place. (-note- In this
case this user is considered to have multiple contract with (a)
service provider(s).

------------------------

This may still have some points to consider. I appreciate your comments.

Thanks and best regards,
Toshi
