But there are IPv6 packets that are sent on the Secondary Management
Connection as well (RS/RA at least) 6.3.9.10 802.16e-2005.  I suggest
saying that only _some_ of the IPv6 packets are transported on some 
Transport Connection, or along these lines.

Probably best for reader would be to enumerate the different types of
Connections the SS can handle and where do IPv6 packets appear.  What do
you think?
