Each ipv6-over-foo doc discusses modifications to ND,

example, Section 5 of RFC 2023 (IPv6 over PPP) mentions
that DAD is redundant and needn't be run.
my interpretation of IPv6 over PPP is different. DAD is redundant only
for the link-local address, but needs to be run for all other
addresses on the link.
The last sentence of the 2nd paragraph in Section 5 states:
"Therefore it is recommended that for PPP links with
the IPV6CP Interface-Token option enabled the default
value of the DupAddrDetectTransmits autoconfiguration
variable [3] be zero."
If DupAddrDetectTransmits is set to zero, then DAD is not run
on the interface since it is an interface variable. The only
thing that implies that this only is for link-local addresses
is the title of the section.
