Hello, >From your draft:
|Routers that implement the current recommendations would send the |periodic multicast router advertisements every 30 minutes, which can |be a significant problem in mobile/cellular network environments. Why do you think 1 multicast RA per 30 minutes is a significant problem for a host? Personally, I would think that 1 RA per 30 mins has a negligible impact on energy cost. 30 minutes is really longtime IMHO. In addition this may be useful: Every 30 minutes (or less), my host will wake up, look around i.e. receive the RA, thus make sure that the access router is *still* with me, and sleep again. What's wrong with that?
