I see. Then I'd like to ask how large the admin-local scope is. Is
there any relationship between other scopes?
In fact, draft-ietf-ipngwg-scoping-arch-01.txt says as follows:

"scop" subfield of the multicast address [RFC 2373,
section 2.7] are smaller than scopes with greater values,
with node-local being the smallest and global being the
According to this description, admin-local is larger than link-local
and smaller than site-local. Is my understanding correct? And if so,
is the definition really reasonable? (Although it depends on the
definition of "site").
