Basic? ... Very Basic!
"Furthermore, the mobile node MAY continue using the
address without performing Duplicate Address Detection, although
it SHOULD in most cases. begin Duplicate Address Detection
asynchronously when it begins use of the address."
By the way, an updated version of my Optimistic DAD draft
is now available:
<http://www.ctie.monash.edu.au/ipv6/draft-moore-ipv6-optimistic-dad-01.txt>
Which addresses many of the technical concerns raised in the
discussion on this list. I didn't get it submitted in time for
this IETF, but I figure those of you stranded in the terminal
room might enjoy some light reading ... also, there's a Linux
implementation well under way.
