Title : IPv4 Address Conflict Detection
Author(s) : S. Cheshire
Filename : draft-cheshire-ipv4-acd-05.txt
Pages : 18
Date : 2007-6-25
When two hosts on the same link attempt to use the same IPv4 address
at the same time (except in rare special cases where this has been
arranged by prior coordination) problems ensue for one or both hosts.
This document describes (i) a simple precaution that a host can take
in advance to help prevent this misconfiguration from happening, and
(ii) if this misconfiguration does occur, a simple mechanism by which
a host can passively detect after-the-fact that it has happened, so
that the host or administrator may respond to rectify the problem.

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.
