Hi,

Reading this draft and the following discussion it's not clear to me

*) Do we still need multiple subnets as proposed in
draft-thaler-autoconf-multisubnet-manets
   The above draft does not list any reason or sites any documents as
to why a single link
   approach (option A) is a bad choice.

*) Can manet router's other interfaces that need to communicate with
other manet routers use MLA. The draft seems to imply that in the
"address scope section". This would allow for a weak DAD.

*) In case the mdelis multiple subnets how will the network prefix
handled ? It can not be FC00::/7 or can it be.

Regards,

Shoaib.
