   No, as mentioned before,
   SSM format is FF3X::/96 in section 7 of RFC 3306.
   Thus, it is distinguishable.

   So, which one is correct ? (FF3X::/32 or FF3X::/96)
   We shoud ask it to the authors of RFC 3306.

   Anyway, I think this issue can be easily resolved. (depending on
decision)

   Thanks,
    M-K.
