Abstract
This document analyzes enterprise renumbering events and describes
the best current practice among the existing renumbering mechanisms.
According to the different stages of renumbering events,
considerations and best current practices are described in three
categories: during network design, for preparation of renumbering,
and during a renumbering operation.

1. Introduction
IPv6 site renumbering is considered difficult. Network managers might
prefer to use Provider Independent (PI) addressing for IPv6 to
attempt to minimize the need for future renumbering. However,
widespread use of PI may create very serious BGP4 scaling problems
and PI space is not always available for enterprises according to the
RIR (Regional Internet Registry) policies. It is thus desirable to
develop mechanisms and practice guidelines that could make
renumbering a simpler process to reduce demand for IPv6 PI spaces.
This document undertakes scenario descriptions, including
documentation of current capabilities and existing BCPs, for
enterprise networks. It takes [RFC5887] and other relevant documents
as the primary input.
The IPv4 and IPv6 are logically separated from the perspective of
renumbering, regardless of overlapping of the IPv4/IPv6 networks or
devices. This document focuses on IPv6 only, by leaving IPv4 out of
scope. Dual-stack network or IPv4/IPv6 transition scenarios are out
of scope, too.
This document focuses on enterprise network renumbering, though most
of the analysis is also applicable to ISP network renumbering.
Renumbering in home networks is considered out of scope, though it
may also benefit from the analysis in this document.
The concept of enterprise network and a typical network illustration
are introduced first. Then, according to the different stages of
renumbering events, considerations and best current practices are
described in three categories: during network design, for preparation
of renumbering, and during renumbering operation.
2. Enterprise Network Illustration for Renumbering
An Enterprise Network as defined in [RFC4057] is: a network that has
multiple internal links, one or more router connections to one or
more Providers, and is actively managed by a network operations
entity.
The enterprise network architecture is illustrated in the figure
below. Those entities relevant to renumbering are highlighted.
Address reconfiguration is fulfilled either by DHCPv6 or ND
protocols. During the renumbering event, the DNS records need to be
Jiang, et al. March 04, 2013 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft draft-ietf-6renum-enterprise-02.txt Septermber 2012
synchronized while routing tables, ACLs and IP filtering tables in
various devices also need to be updated, too.
Static address issue is described in a dedicated draft
[I-D.ietf-6renum-static-problem].

Figure 1 Enterprise network illustration
It is assumed that IPv6 enterprise networks are IPv6-only, or dual-
stack in which a logical IPv6 plane is independent from IPv4. The
complicated IPv4/IPv6 co-existence scenarios are out of scope.
This document focuses on the unicast addresses; site-local, link-
local, multicast and anycast addresses are out of scope.
3. Enterprise Network Renumbering Scenario Categories
In this section, we divide enterprise network renumbering scenarios
into two categories defined by external and internal network factors,
which require renumbering for different reasons.
3.1. Renumbering Caused by External Network Factors
The most influential external network factor is the uplink ISP.
Jiang, et al. March 04, 2013 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft draft-ietf-6renum-enterprise-02.txt Septermber 2012
o The enterprise network switches to a new ISP. Of course, the
prefixes received from different ISPs are different. This is the
most common scenario.
Whether there is an overlap time between the old and new ISPs
would also influence the possibility whether the enterprise can
fulfill renumbering without a flag day [RFC4192].
o The renumbering event may be initiated by receiving new prefixes
from the same uplink. This might happen if the enterprise network
is switched to a different location within the network topology of
the same ISP due to various considerations, such as commercial,
performance or services reasons, etc. Alternatively, the ISP
itself might be renumbered due to topology changes or migration to
a different or additional prefix. These ISP renumbering events
would initiate enterprise network renumbering events, of course.
o The enterprise network adds new uplink(s) for multihoming purposes.
This may not be a typical renumbering case because the original
addresses will not be changed. However, initial numbering may be
considered as a special renumbering event. The enterprise network
removes uplink(s) or old prefixes.
3.2. Renumbering caused by Internal Network Factors
o As companies split, merge, grow, relocate or reorganize, the
enterprise network architectures may need to be re-built. This
will trigger the internal renumbering.
o The enterprise network may proactively adopt a new address scheme,
for example by switching to a new transition mechanism or stage of
a transition plan.
o The enterprise network may reorganize its topology or subnets.
4. Network Renumbering Considerations and Best Current Practices
In order to carry out renumbering in an enterprise network,
systematic planning and administrative preparation are needed.
Carefully planning and preparation could make the renumbering process
smoother.
This section recommends some solutions or strategies for the
enterprise renumbering, chosen among existing mechanisms. There are
known gaps analyzed by [I-D.ietf-6renum-gap-analysis]. If these gaps
are filled in the future, the enterprise renumbering may be processed
more automatically, with fewer issues.
Jiang, et al. March 04, 2013 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft draft-ietf-6renum-enterprise-02.txt Septermber 2012
4.1. Considerations and Best Current Practices during Network Design
This section describes the consideration or issues relevant to
renumbering that a network architect should carefully plan when
building or designing a new network.
- Prefix Delegation
In a large or a multi-site enterprise network, the prefix should
be carefully managed, particularly during renumbering events.
Prefix information needs to be delegated from router to router.
The DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation options [RFC3633] and
[RFC6603] provide a mechanism for automated delegation of IPv6
prefixes. Normally, DHCPv6 PD options are used between the
internal enterprise routers, for example, a router receives
prefix(es) from its upstream router (may be a border gateway or
edge router .etc) through DHCPv6 PD options and then advertise it
(them) to the local hosts through RA messages.
- Usage of FQDN
In general, Fully-Qualified Domain Names (FQDNs) are recommended
to be used to configure network connectivity, such as tunnels,
whenever possible. The capability to use FQDNs as endpoint names
has been standardized in several RFCs, such as [RFC5996], although
many system/network administrators do not realize that it is there
and works well as a way to avoid manual modification during
renumbering.
Service Location Protocol [RFC2608] and multicast DNS with SRV
records for service discovery can reduce the number of places that
IP addresses need to be configured. But it should be noted that
multicast DNS is link-local only.
- Usage of ULA
Unique Local Addresses (ULAs) are defined in [RFC4193] as
provider-independent prefixes, and they are globally unique to
avoid collision. For enterprise networks, using ULA along with PA
can provide a logically local routing plane separated from the
globally routing plane. The benefit is to ensure stable and
specific local communication regardless of the ISP uplink failure.
This benefit is especially meaningful for renumbering. It mainly
includes three use cases as the following.
When renumbering, as RFC4192 suggested, it has a period to keep
using the old prefix(es) before the new prefix(es) is(are) stable.
Jiang, et al. March 04, 2013 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft draft-ietf-6renum-enterprise-02.txt Septermber 2012
In the process of adding new prefix(es) and deprecating old
prefix(es), it is not easy to keep the local communication immune
of global routing plane change. If we use ULA for the local
communication, the separated local routing plane can isolate the
affecting by global routing change.
Enterprise administrators may want to avoid the need to renumber
their internal-only, private nodes when they have to renumber the
PA addresses of the whole network because of changing ISPs, ISPs
restructure their address allocations, or any other reasons. In
these situations, ULA is an effective tool for the internal-only
nodes.
For multicast, ULA may be a way of avoiding renumbering from
having an impact on multicast. In most deployments multicast is
only used internally (intra-domain), and the addresses used for
multicast sources and Rendezvous-Points need not be reachable nor
routable externally. Hence one may at least internally make use of
ULA for multicast specific infrastructure.
- Address Types
This document focuses on the dynamically-configured global unicast
addresses in enterprise networks. They are the targets of
renumbering events.
Manual-configured addresses are not scalable in medium to large
sites, hence are out of scope. Manually-configured addresses/hosts
should be avoided as much as possible.
- Address configuration models
In IPv6 networks, there are two auto-configuration models for
address assignment: Stateless Address Auto-Configuration (SLAAC,
[RFC4862]) by Neighbor Discovery (ND, [RFC4861]) and stateful
address configuration by Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for
IPv6 (DHCPv6, [RFC3315]). In the latest work, DHCPv6 can also
support host-generated address model by assigning a prefix through
DHCPv6 messages [I-D.ietf-dhc-host-gen-id].
ND is considered easier to renumber by broadcasting a Router
Advertisement message with a new prefix. DHCPv6 can also trigger
the renumbering process by sending unicast RECONFIGURE messages,
though it may cause a large number of interactions between hosts
and DHCPv6 server.
Jiang, et al. March 04, 2013 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft draft-ietf-6renum-enterprise-02.txt Septermber 2012
This document has no preference between ND and DHCPv6 address
configuration models. It is network architects' job to decide
which configuration model is employed. But it should be noticed
that using DHCPv6 and ND together within one network, especially
in one subnet, may cause operational issues. For example, some
hosts use DHCPv6 as the default configuration model while some use
ND. Then the hosts' address configuration model depends on the
policies of operating systems and cannot be controlled by the
network. Section 5.1 of [I-D.ietf-6renum-gap-analysis] discusses
more details on this topic. So, in general, this document
recommends using DHCPv6/SLAAC independently in different subnets.
However, since DHCPv6 is also used to configure many other network
parameters, there are ND and DHCPv6 co-existence scenarios.
Combinations of address configuration models may coexist within a
single enterprise network. [I-D.ietf-savi-mix] provides
recommendations to avoid collisions and to review collision
handling in such scenarios.
- DNS
It is recommended that the site have an automatic and systematic
procedure for updating/synchronizing its DNS records, including
both forward and reverse mapping [RFC2874]. A manual on-demand
updating model does not scale, and increases the chance of errors.
Although the A6 DNS record model [RFC2874] was designed for easier
renumbering, it has a lot of unsolved technical issues [RFC3364].
Therefore, it has been moved to experimental status [RFC3363], and
will move to historic status by [RFC6563] (Moving A6 to Historic
Status). So A6 is not recommended.
In order to simplify the operation procedure, the network
architect should combine the forward and reverse DNS updates in a
single procedure.
Often, a small site depends on its ISP's DNS system rather than
maintaining its own. When renumbering, this requires
administrative coordination between the site and its ISP.
The DNS synchronization may be completed through the Secure DNS
Dynamic Update [RFC3007]. Dynamic DNS update can be provided by
the DHCPv6 client or by the server on behalf of individual hosts.
[RFC4704] defined a DHCPv6 option to be used by DHCPv6 clients and
servers to exchange information about the client's FQDN and about
who has the responsibility for updating the DNS with the
associated AAAA and PTR RRs. For example, if a client wants the
Jiang, et al. March 04, 2013 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft draft-ietf-6renum-enterprise-02.txt Septermber 2012
server to update the FQDN-address mapping in the DNS server, it
can include the Client FQDN option with proper settings in the
SOLICIT with Rapid Commit, REQUEST, RENEW, and REBIND message
originated by the client. When DHCPv6 server gets this option, it
can use the dynamic DNS update on behalf of the client. In this
document, we promote to support this FQDN option. But since it's a
DHCPv6 option, it implies that only the DHCP-managed networks are
suitable for this operation. In SLAAC mode, sometimes hosts also
need to register addresses on a registration server, which could
in fact be a DHCPv6 server (as described in
[I-D.ietf-dhc-addr-registration]); then the server would update
corresponding DNS records.
- Security
Any automatic renumbering scheme has a potential exposure to
hijacking. Malicious entity in the network can forge prefixes to
renumber the hosts. So proper network security mechanisms are
needed.
For ND, Secure Neighbor Discovery (SEND, [RFC3971]) is a possible
solution, but it is complex and there's almost no real deployment
so far. Comparing the non-trivial deployment of SEND, RA guard
[RFC6105] is a light-weight alternative, which focuses on rogue
router advertisements proof in a L2 network. However, it also
hasn't been widely deployed since it hasn't been published for
long.
For DHCPv6, there are built-in secure mechanisms (like Secure
DHCPv6 [I-D.ietf-dhc-secure-dhcpv6]), and authentication of DHCPv6
messages [RFC3315] could be utilized. But these security
mechanisms also haven't been verified by wide real deployment.
- Miscellaneous
A site or network should also avoid embedding addresses from other
sites or networks in its own configuration data. Instead, the
Fully-Qualified Domain Names should be used. Thus, these
connections can survive after renumbering events at other sites.
This also applies to host-based connectivities.
4.2. Considerations and Best Current Practices for the Preparation of
Renumbering
In ND, it is not possible to reduce a prefix's lifetime to below two
hours. So, renumbering should not be an unplanned sudden event. This
issue could only be avoided by early planning and preparation.
Jiang, et al. March 04, 2013 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft draft-ietf-6renum-enterprise-02.txt Septermber 2012
This section describes several recommendations for the preparation of
enterprise renumbering event. By adopting these recommendations, a
site could be renumbered more easily. However, these recommendations
might increase the daily traffic, server load, or burden of network
operation. Therefore, only those networks that are expected to be
renumbered soon or very frequently should adopt these
recommendations, with balanced consideration between daily cost and
renumbering cost.
- Reduce the address preferred time or valid time or both.
Long-lifetime addresses may cause issues for renumbering events.
Particularly, some offline hosts may reconnect using these
addresses after renumbering events. Shorter preferred lifetimes
with relatively long valid lifetimes may allow short transition
periods for renumbering events and avoid frequent address
renewals.
- Reduce the DNS record TTL on the local DNS server.
The DNS AAAA resource record TTL on the local DNS server should be
manipulated to ensure that stale addresses are not cached.
- Reduce the DNS configuration lifetime on the hosts.
Since the DNS server could be renumbered as well, the DNS
configuration lifetime on the hosts should also be reduced if
renumbering events are expected. In ND, The DNS configuration can
be done through reducing the lifetime value in RDNSS option
[RFC6106]. In DHCPv6, the DNS configuration option specified in
[RFC3646] doesn't provide lifetime attribute, but we can reduce
the DHCPv6 client lease time to achieve similar effect.
- Identify long-living sessions
Any applications which maintain very long transport connections
(hours or days) should be identified in advance, if possible. Such
applications will need special handling during renumbering, so it
is important to know that they exist.
4.3. Considerations and Best Current Practices during Renumbering
Operation
Renumbering events are not instantaneous events. Normally, there is a
transition period, in which both the old prefix and the new prefix
are used in the site. Better network design and management, better
Jiang, et al. March 04, 2013 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft draft-ietf-6renum-enterprise-02.txt Septermber 2012
pre-preparation and longer transition period are helpful to reduce
the issues during renumbering operation.
- Within/without a flag day
As is described in [RFC4192], "a 'flag day' is a procedure in
which the network, or a part of it, is changed during a planned
outage, or suddenly, causing an outage while the network
recovers."
If renumbering event is processed within a flag day, the network
service/connectivity will be unavailable for a period until the
renumbering event is completed. It is efficient and provides
convenience for network operation and management. But network
outage is usually unacceptable for end users and enterprises. A
renumbering procedure without a flag day provides smooth address
switching, but much more operational complexity and difficulty is
introduced.
- Transition period
If renumbering transition period is longer than all address
lifetimes, after which the address leases expire, each host will
automatically pick up its new IP address. In this case, it would
be the DHCPv6 server or Router Advertisement itself that
automatically accomplishes client renumbering.
Address deprecation should be associated with the deprecation of
associated DNS records. The DNS records should be deprecated as
early as possible, before the addresses themselves.
- Network initiative enforced renumbering
If the network has to enforce renumbering before address leases
expire, the network should initiate DHCPv6 RECONFIGURE messages.
For some operating systems such as Windows 7, if the hosts receive
RA messages with ManagedFlag=0, they'll release the DHCPv6
addresses and do SLAAC according to the prefix information in the
RA messages, so this could be another enforcement method for some
specific scenarios.
- Impact to branch/main sites
Renumbering in main/branch site may cause impact on branch/main
site communication. The routes, ingress filtering of site's
gateways, and DNS may need to be updated. This needs careful
planning and organizing.
Jiang, et al. March 04, 2013 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft draft-ietf-6renum-enterprise-02.txt Septermber 2012
- DNS record update and DNS configuration on hosts
DNS records on the local DNS server should be updated if hosts are
renumbered. If the site depends on ISP's DNS system, it should
report the new host's DNS records to its ISP. During the
transition period, both old and new DNS records are valid. If the
TTLs of DNS records are shorter than the transition period, an
administrative operation may not be necessary.
DNS configuration on hosts should be updated if local recursive
DNS servers are renumbered. During the transition period, both old
and new DNS server addresses may co-exist on the hosts. If the
lifetime of DNS configuration is shorter than the transition
period, name resolving failure may be reduced to minimum. A
notification mechanism may be needed to indicate to the hosts that
a renumbering event of local recursive DNS happens or is going to
take place.
- Tunnel concentrator renumbering
A tunnel concentrator itself might be renumbered. This change
should be reconfigured in relevant hosts or routers, unless the
configuration of tunnel concentrator was based on FQDN. However,
even if FQDN is used, some other tunnel-relevant configuration may
still exist, for example IPSec, so fail in renumbering.
- Connectivity session survivability
During the renumbering operations, connectivity sessions in IP
layer would break if the old address is deprecated before the
session ends. However, the upper layer sessions may survive by
using session survivability technologies, such as SHIM6 [RFC5533].
As mentioned above, some long-living applications may need to be
handled specially.
5. Security Considerations
As noted, a site that is listed by IP address in a black list can
escape that list by renumbering itself.
Any automatic renumbering scheme has a potential exposure to
hijacking. Proper network security mechanisms are needed. Although
there are existing security mechanisms such as SEND, RA guard, secure
DHCPv6 etc., they haven't been widely deployed and haven't been
verified whether they are suitable for ensuring security while not
bringing too much operational complexity and cost.
Jiang, et al. March 04, 2013 [Page 12]
Internet-Draft draft-ietf-6renum-enterprise-02.txt Septermber 2012
Dynamic DNS update may bring risk of DoS attack to the DNS server. So
along with the update authentication, session filtering/limitation
may also be needed.
The "make-before-break" approach of [RFC4192] requires the routers
keep advertising the old prefixes for some time. But if the ISP
changes the prefixes very frequently, the co-existence of old and new
prefixes may cause potential risk to the enterprise routing system
since the old address relevant route path may already invalid and the
routing system just doesn't know it. However, normally enterprise
scenarios don't involve the extreme situation.
6. IANA Considerations
This draft does not request any IANA action.
