Comment:
The Interface Identifier has now been replaced with a generic
Net_Iface parameter, and we describe what are the required properties
for this ID.

#3: Need for DAD counter
Comment (by fg...@si6networks.com):
Actually, it makes the algorithm simpler. By including DAD_counter, it's
trivial to generate another Interface-ID with the same algorithm. Whereas
if we were to select a random interface ID upon a DAD failure, the code
would

#3: Need for DAD counter
Your draft attempts to make the fallback predictable, by incorporating a
DAD counter in the seeds of your nominal algorithm. But that means
redefining the solution a only a guarantee that the visiting host will
have one of the same 2 or 3 addresses on the visited
#4: Normative section / Informational section
After reading the document again, the main issue is that the document
specifies a solution to a problem by detailing a specific implementation,
but does not explain the design choices behind that solution. As such, we
end up with an over
#1: Proper source for an Interface Identifier
Version -06 of the document includes the interface index in the
expression F() that generate the stable privacy IIDs. It has been noted
that interface indexes might not be stable, and that, in any case,

#2: Description of issues with traditional SLAAC addresses (embedding IEEE
identifiers)
Some folks have noted that this I-D should clarify what are the issues
with traditional SLAAC addresses (addresses that embed link-layer
addresses). This is deemed as key to clarify which of them are
