I thought it was odd you didn't respond.
Okay, I stand corrected. I got *one* request for a clarification, and it
was from Illjitsch.
Because of who asked the question and how he asked it, I didn't actually
think he was asking a serious question.
(Sorry, Illjitsch - no offense intended.)
Nothing stopped him from providing poll responses with the details
others provided.
Those who weren't sure, described their set-up, and asked me to
categorize it - which I did in the summary.
Nobody else asked any other questions like that, in spite of numerous
responses.
Some did ask whether a static router plus hosts all autoconf was mixed
or autoconf (IMHO that is autoconf, not mixed).
The rationale behind excluding a (static, RA) router from the autoconf
vs mixed question is, if you subtract the router, autoconf can't work
since there is no RA.
Any set-up which has an autoconf router hanging off a subnet which has
another router acting as RA, would still end up classifying the subnet
as "autoconf".
A set-up where two routers are connected to a broadcast network
(ethernet, for example), where only one of the routers is the RA for
that subnet/segment, and the other is *statically* configured on that
subnet, could be classified either as "mixed", or as "autoconf".
Illjitsch's interface config seemed to me to make his question
facetious, for just that reason - he only showed a router config, and
made no references to hosts.
If anyone else want to answer the Straw Poll now, with the clarification
on this point, I'd be happy to take new answers, and re-summarize....
