Please clarify.  Are you saying that the routing protocol must be able to
run over link layers that don't support link-local multicast?  AFAIK,
link-local multicast is part of the base IPv6 spec.

Then I think I don't understand what is meant by "multi-path support".  Is
that merely the ability to switch to a better route if one becomes
available?  Or is there something more to it?  Could you please clarify?
