Abstract:
   One of the original intentions for the IPv6 host configuration, was
   to configure the network-layer parameters only with IPv6 ND, and use
   service discovery for other configuration information.  Unfortunately
   that hasn't panned out quite as planned, and we are in a situation
   where all kinds of configuration options are added to RAs.  This
   document proposes a new universal option for RA in a self-describing
   data format, with the list of elements maintained in an IANA
   registry, with greatly relaxed rules for registration.
