Title : ND Support to trigger the nodes refresh the other configuration

Neighbor Discovery for IPv6 [RFC2461] provides a way by which the
nodes can determine whether to use administered protocol for address
autoconfiguration and other non-address information through M and O
bits in the Router Advertisements. Though RAs can notify nodes of a
change in the address prefixes, currently there is no way the nodes
can learn that there is a change in the non-address configuration
parameters. This will make the nodes unable to learn about new or
changed configuration parameters like DNS server addresses. This
specification extends the Neighbor Discovery protocol [RFC2461] to
notify the nodes that the other information obtained through an
administered protocol has been changed.

In the body type:

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
