I have no hard stance whether to remove M&O bits or not at this stage, however if we remove it, I guess somebody will sporadically define similar flags into the RA repeatly so as to perform that kind of operations. Of course it can be a separate document. Nevertheless, M&O bits (or newly defined flags outside RFC2462) is useful to trigger DHCP operation to the host and we need it. e.g., recursive DNS server configuration. - Daniel (Soohong Daniel Park) - Mobile Platform Laboratory, SAMSUNG Electronics. -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Administrative Requests: https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
