Technical Summary

   The neighbor discovery protocol specifies the maximum time allowed
   between sending unsolicited multicast Router Advertisements from a
   router interface as well as the maximum router lifetime.  It also
   allows the limits to be overridden by link-layer specific documents.
   This document allows for overriding these values on a per-link basis.

Working Group Summary

   There is support for this document in the 6MAN working group.  Several
   issues were raised during the w.g. last call.  These issues are
   resolved in the current draft.  There is a concensus to advance this
   document. 

Document Quality

      The quality of the document is good, it has received adequate review
   in the working group on the mailing list and at several 6man sessions
   at IETF meetings.
