For 18.1.12, could we use: If the client has not detected having moved to a new link but detects a significant change regarding the prefixes available on the link, the client SHOULD initiate one of the Renew/Reply, Confirm/Reply or Information-request/Reply exchanges. A change is considered significant when one or more on-link prefixes are added, and/or one or more existing on-link prefixes are deprecated. The reason for this is that such a significant change may indicate a configuration change at the server. However, a client MUST rate-limit such initiation attempts to avoid flooding a server with requests when there are link issues (for example, only doing one of these at most every 30 seconds).
This also seems more consistent with earlier text in this section? - Bernie > On Dec 15, 2025, at 4:41 PM, Michael Richardson <[email protected]> wrote: > > > I have read the 9915 top to bottom. > I think the phrasing at 18.2.12: > >> A client not detected as having moved to a new link SHOULD initiate > > is still pretty awkward. > The new phrasing, seems to suggest that an external entity is going to detect > the client has moved.
