IPv6 WG, This is an update based on feedback received on the list and
via private e-mail. Please review and comment. I would still like
to solicit input on WG adoption.
My previous comment on the draft (this option is only for RA, not all
NDP) was included. I support WG adoption of this document.
There are at least three potential uses of this draft: DNA (cited in the
draft), netlmm recently posted here and finally a potential use by
Mobile Routers.
A minor comment on the References section: RFC2461 is currently being
revised by draft-ietf-ipv6-2461bis-11.
I think maybe the document could also include a short paragraph about
how legacy systems (those not implementing this draft) will not crash
when this option is deployed in routers. But maybe this is already well
understood.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
Title : IPv6 Router Advertisement Flags Option Author(s) : B.
Haberman, R. Hinden Filename :
draft-haberman-ipv6-ra-flags-option-01.txt Pages : 7 Date
:
2007-4-18 The IPv6 Neighbor Discovery's Router Advertisement message
contains an 8-bit field reserved for single-bit flags. Several
protocols have reserved flags in this field and others are preparing
to reserve a sufficient number of flags to exhaust the field. This
document defines an option to the Router Advertisement message that
expands the available number of flag bits available.
