Hi Suresh,

Sorry but some points are unclear for me.

At first, what are assumptions you have regarding the MN?
>From my point of view, the MN is able to use SEND: in using either CGA
or a cert linked to its address. Is it the same assumption for you
because I am not sure this is the case? :)

Second point, if the MN have a CGA, how does the ND Proxy get the cert
which will allow it to sign the NDP signaling instead of the MN?

Last point, if the MN have a cert linked to its address, how does this
cert is provided to the MN?

Thanks for your help.

Cheers.

JMC.
