Thank you. The question arose with respect to link-local
addresses derived from IEEE 802.15.4 16-bit short addresses,
which require some form of DAD.
Just to be clear, if there are two 6LBRs which advertise
different prefixes and a host configures addresses for
both prefixes, then both addresses need to be registered
with both 6LBRs?
