Hi, folks,

I have a few questions on Teredo on which I hope you can shed some light:

1) The Teredo overview published by Microsoft
(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb457011(printer).aspx)
suggests that a bubble packet is used to maintain the NAT mapping with
the Teredo server. A couple of questions on this one:
1a) Is the Teredo server supposed to respond with a Teredo bubble, or what?
1b) According to RFC 4380, RS/RA messages are used for that purpose.
Is there any specific reason for which this was changed (from "bubble"
to "RS/RA") at some point, or is the "Teredo Overview" published by MS
simply wrong?

2) Assuming RS/RA messages are used for maintaining the NAT mapping:
2a) Are Teredo clients supposed to process the received RAs? (e.g.,
process the "Router Lifetime", the Prefix Information Option, etc.)
2b) Do you know of any implementations that actually process them?

Thanks so much!

Kind regards,
--
