I was talking about if the interfaces are in *different* sites. I think that is how current thinking goes - that each interface can be in a different site. In that case, I may not have a choice about what site addresses are used in each site - the site admins for each site quite legitimately could choose the same prefix for their two links which connect to my machine. If they have to co-ordinate their addressing, then the addressing is no longer site local. -- Ben Clifford http://www.hawaga.org.uk/ben/ Telephone: United States 310 443-4485 United Kingdom 0709-227-5268 --------------------------------------------------------------------- The IPv6 Users Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe users" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
