I think AUTOCONF considers connection to Internet, but even in that
case, I think my comment still holds. It's true that in a connected
scenario, the addressing depends on the infrastructure the MANET is
attached to, but this doesn't necessarily imply that inner nodes have to
change their addresses when move within the same MANET.
