    > For IPv6 node, reference RFC 2460.
    > For context, the definitions there are:
    >    node        - a device that implements IPv6.
    >    router      - a node that forwards IPv6 packets not explicitly
    >                  addressed to itself.
    >     host        - any node that is not a router.

Now that I think about it, I don't think we should be sending people to
another (basically unrelated) document for the definition of this one
much-used term. I'll put something based on these in the 'brief intro
glossary' instead.
