Our Ericsson SmartEdge routers were never meant to be deployed in the home or to support complete auto-configuration - I was just responding to Fred's query as to what OSPFv3 implementations do today. If there is no IPv4 address available and no OSPFv3 Router-ID is explicitly configured, we'll log an error and shut the OSPFv3 instance down until such time as an IPv4 address or explicit router-id are configured. A new draft is required for OSPFv3 auto-configuration.
