It is possible to design "cellular" systems where the
3GPP/PDP address assignment is completely replaced by
localized, stateless methods.  The way that addresses
are assigned is not related to bandwidth, nor even to
essential authorization issues.  It's an artifact of
near-compatibility with existing 2.5G layouts.  GGSN
does not NECESSARILY need to control this process.

Thus, any document which recommends that DAD or Neighbor
Discovery might be executed rarely if ever, would not fit
such "cellular" systems as I would hope eventually do
come about.

Charlie P.
