Abstract:
This document describes issues encountered by a node attached to multiple
provisioning domains. This node receives configuration information from each of its provisioning domains, where some
configuration objects are global to the node and others are local to the interface. Issues
such as selecting the wrong interface to send traffic happen when conflicting
node-scoped configuration objects are received and inappropriately used. Moreover, other issues
are the result of simultaneous attachment to multiple networks, such as domain
selection or addressing and naming space overlaps, regardless of the provisioning mechanism. While
multiple provisioning domains are typically seen on nodes with multiple interfaces, this document
also discusses situations involving single-interface nodes. This document is not an Internet Standards
Track specification; it is published for informational purposes.
