comprise shared links has come up on the NETLMM and Autoconf
mailing lists. Proxy/relay DAD is a mechanism whereby NS(DAD)
messages are relayed to the link on which a node with a
colliding address resides, with the colliding node's NA(DAD)

Hi all,
In IPv6 whenever a NS packet is received,
and if the target address is link local, then second 16 bits from lsb
side are fileed with interface index. and while sending NA as reply
those bits in target address are made zero. Why is it done?
Acc. to rfc, those 16bits are part of 64 bit int
