Title : Rogue IPv6 Router Advertisement Problem Statement

When deploying IPv6, whether IPv6-only or dual-stack, routers are
configured to send IPv6 Router Advertisements to convey information
to nodes that enable them to autoconfigure on the network. This
information includes the implied default router address taken from
the observed source address of the Router Advertisement (RA) message.
However, unintended misconfigurations or possibly malicious attacks
on the network may lead to bogus RAs being present, which in turn can
cause operational problems for hosts on the network. In this draft
we summarise the scenarios in which rogue RAs may be observed and
present a list of possible solutions to the problem. The goal of
this text is to be Informational, and as such to present a framework
around which solutions can be proposed and discussed.
