OK, thanks. One of the reasons I ask is because I think our IPv6 node/router
requirements documents are missing something important that appeared
in these earlier standards - the model of a host that also acts as a router.

RFC1122 calls them "end systems", or "hosts with embedded gateway".
They host their own local applications and can also forward packets on
behalf of nodes connected to a downstream interface. The model has
significant implications for Internet of Things.

Do we want to import that language into our IPv6 requirements docs?

Thanks - Fred
