% Sure :-)
% But we are not talking about well-known-LINK-LOCAL, but
% well-known-SITE-LOCAL or well-known-GLOBAL.

% In this case, how do you do that while you can't control routes?
Its harder w/ v4 than v6. v6, its dirt simple.
turn on routing for your DNS server. It advertizes
its self and the well-known address to the local segment.
Odds are that the well-known prefix is "nearer" from
this new router than from the "offical" egress point.
Other nodes, listening to RA/ND see this new router
and the well-known prefix. can you say hijack?
next.
(Honestly, have none of you actually run a network
or is it all just simulation?)
