We don't want to be routed everywhere. The objective is to two-fold: 1) reach the entire mesh network and it seems RFC 7346 requires us to use realm-local instead of link-local anyway 2) force the IP stack to select a non-link-local address when sending that multicast discovery packet. This address would be stored in directory services and could be passed on to other networks, thus allowing unicast connectivity across multiple networks. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center
