Agreed. > if it is specified that the periodic RS is sent only after 2/3s of the router lifetime has passed, then either the host would have received the multicast advertisement, and dropped sending the periodic RS, or it lost the multicast messages, and would be best off sending the RS anyway, or it was on a link-type that didn't send periodic RAs. OK ... but the host will not learn about new prefixes assigned to the link in a timely fashion, which is (I infer) the motivation for this text: On non-multicast links, the hosts following this specification MUST continue retransmitting the RSs even after an RA that results in a default route is received. - Ralph > > cheers, > Ole > >
