Thanks for that. Now, what is needed for those techniques to be
fully deployable for IPv6, except work by the vendor(s)? Is there
any work needed on the basic IPv6 standards?

Well, I think what would help is to be able to run a DHCPv6 only environment without RA/RS, it would also help if one didn't need NS either. The whole L2 environment would need a lot less code, it basically would only need to be able to filter the above mechanisms, not inspect them.

But as Fred also mentioned, SAVI WG is working in specifically this area

Sure. Are you holding your breath?

Well, duplicating work is probably a bad idea. They have running code, I don't see why people who want to fix this shouldn't join them in their effort. Am I missing something?
