For Jinmei's example, Conceptual Sending Algorithm will not indicate that P::Y is on-link because the Prefix List of X does not include P::Y. Then, given the statement in our document that says an address resolution can only be performed on addresses that are on-link, X cannot send the address resolution NS out. Remember the private email thread we went through where I said the Conceptual Sending Algorithm doesn’t really apply to ND control messages - this Algorithm is really for data packets. Your emails today have said repeatedly to just send the NS address resolution out. I hope you see the controversy now?
