I agree with your assessment.  Having VRRP functionality accomplishes
more than simply depending on NUD.  However, the current VRRP spec
has no support whatsoever for IPv6.  In addition, there may be issues
that need to be addressed where VRRP, as defined for IPv4, causes
operational problems in IPv6 (DAD for instance).

Anyone in VRRP looking at VRRPv6???
