Re: [savi] Broadband Forum liaison to IETF on IPv6 security



Hi Christian
 
The reason of Duplicate Link Local Addresses is different hosts having
same MAC addresses use same algorithm to create LLAs.
In broadband network, hosts(CPE) with duplicate  MACs are allowed.
 
There are two ways to fix it
1)Change CPE algorithm to lower possibility of duplicate address
   to a tolerable degree.  IPv6 use DAD to avoid the duplicate LLA.
2)Hosts are layer 2 seperated.  LLA can only be used with a link.
   Different links can have the same LLA.
