On a shared link, multicast RAs would cause a problem. (But I am not sure if there's anything that prevents the access routers from deciding that they do not give this host the actual local mobility service; as the hosts are unmodified, they really do not know how the network decides to give them prefix X or Y. The restriction is related to how ND works on the link, not what the NETLMM nodes actually do on behalf of the host.) --Jari _______________________________________________ Int-area mailing list [email protected] https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/int-area
