True. I think the only option to unicast responses for unspecified source address cases would be link-layer unicast option. > I don't know how common these cases are in existing implementations. > The unspecified source would appear if the host is doing DAD in parallel > with sending the RS. I did some capturing/research related to this draft, Windows XP was issuing unspecified source RSes at boot, then using link-local sourced RSes, although the later versions of Windows I looked at didn't. > I don't know when a host would omit the SLLAO in the RS. > I think it would be fairly common at the moment. The Linux user interface oriented Network Manager utility (https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/NetworkManager), used by at least Fedora, is sending RSes without the SLLAO, as it uses the libndp.org library, which only seems to currently support building a minimal generic RS without the SLLAO option, and there doesn't seem to be an obvious library call to add an SLLAO to the generic RS. >> <snip> > > I think there is text earlier to say to not create an NCE for 0::0 nor if > there is no SLLAO (unless the link-layer has no addresses). > I've done some more searching of RFC4861, and haven't seemed to find anything that specifically prohibits creating an NCE via a ND/NS transaction for a RS without an SLLAO. Thinking about it more, triggering an ND/NS to resolve the source address of the RS if there is no SLLAO may not be all that beneficial, as it effectively substitutes a multicast ND for a multicast RA. There might be some other benefits from having router(s) having proactively resolve a host's link-local RS source address that make trading a multicast RA for a multicast ND worth while.
