Re: [Autoconf] Discussion on link types and status of documents



Hi Charlie,

I have some thoughts on running IPv6 without ND for link layer address
discovery.

Can we run IPv4 over Ethernet without ARP?
Can we run IPv6 over Ethernet without ND?
Should Autoconf work on a protocol for link layer address discovery for
MANET links (link between MANET interfaces)?
Or snoop L2 header info from for example received NHDP packets?

I am with you when you say: let's try to reduce overhead.

Regards, Teco
