Technical Summary

  The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) provides a standard method of 
  encapsulating Network Layer protocol information over  
  point-to-point links.  PPP also defines an extensible Link Control  
  Protocol, and proposes a family of Network Control Protocols  
  (NCPs) for establishing and configuring different network-layer  
  protocols. 

  This document defines the method for sending IPv6 packets over PPP 
  links, the NCP for establishing and configuring the IPv6 over PPP  
  and the method for forming IPv6 link-local addresses on PPP links. 
  It also specifies the conditions for performing Duplicate Address 
  Detection on IPv6 global unicast addresses configured for PPP 
  links either through stateful or stateless address 
  autoconfiguration. 

Working Group Summary

  The IPv6 working group has reviewed this document and it
