offhand, perpaps - for a server you might want manually configure nice "prefix::1" address in addition to the automaticly generated id (or even many id's you have webserver: id=1, mailserver: id=2, etc.). Now, depening on needs, you can designate any host as server by adding the servers "locally-well-known-id" to a host (and removing it from another). - privacy draft (3041?) didn't exactly call for generation of id only, but it could be done that way too (just generate random id's to be used). > - If multiple IIDs are configured on an interface, does that imply that > the interface has multiple link-local addresses, one created from each > IID. In my case, yes. -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPng Working Group Mailing List IPng Home Page: http://playground.sun.com/ipng FTP archive: ftp://playground.sun.com/pub/ipng Direct all administrative requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------
