Re: A Suggestion for Address Selection

[Arifumi Matsumoto <arifumi at nttv6.net>]

Hi, Aleksi.

I found this is a very interesting proposal.

One question.

What happens if you use a routing protocol such as RIPng
to deliver some routes to this kind of host ?

The existing routing protocols and RFC4191 more specific
routes deliver routing information bound to the interface,
not to the address.

Kindest regards,
