Hi Hesham: I fail to understand the "by definition" here. Nemo does not prevent 2 different MRs from registering the same MNP. It's like multiple parallel routes. What's not duplicated is the Home address... In fact, I proposed a test to check that both registrations actually end up in a same link, otherwise there's a problem equivalent to the DAD problem in MIP6. Not much success on that proposal, though Pascal -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Administrative Requests: https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
