I think it is not mandatory to implement ND on p2p links or it is not mandatory to do Address Resolution on p2p links, but should implement DAD on p2p links. To the PPPoE scenario, I think should not implement Address Resolution on virtual PPP links.

ND on point-to-point links (Yu-Jung Lee) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2006 15:05:31 +0800 From: "Yu-Jung Lee" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: ND on point-to-point links To: <ipv6@ietf.org> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="big5" Hi, According to RFC 2461, there's a description about ND on point-to-point links: point-to-point - Neighbor Discovery handles such links just like multicast links. (Multicast can be trivially provided on point to point links, and interfaces can be assigned link-local addresses.) Neighbor Discovery should be implemented as described in this document. The saying is not explicit enough. Does it mean it's not mandatory to implement ND on p2p links? If it's not a MUST, what is a node supposed to do when it receives a NS? Currently, we test against Juniper's router with p2p link (including PPPoE, PPPoA, and RFC 1483 Route). Our device sends out NS, but the peer does not send a NA message in response, which causes some interoperability issues. Besides, on a p2p link, is it mandatory for a router to send out RA?
