Archived criterion

F35-BL: Yes

Archived previous-definition assessment — revision 5.73. Retired in 5.82; excluded from the active matrix and counts. This historical verdict is not a current assessment.

Rationale

Babel can replace provisioned static reachability with router-to-router prefix advertisement and route maintenance while attached IPv6 hosts retain their stacks and applications.

Assessment method

Selected-composition primary documentary assessment; no runtime experiment

Source context

Primary selected transport/routing specifications and declared profile boundary

Outstanding qualification

The witness keeps the selected addressing hierarchy and policy filters. Routers install and configure Babel; attached hosts keep their existing attachment/default gateway configuration. No new endpoint mobility protocol or arbitrary automatic prefix aggregation is inferred.
