It is a common practice to install a (soft or hard) loopback on a
circuit interface for various purposes (e.g. circuit turn-up test).
However, this practice results in disabling IPv6 on an interface
even after the loopback is removed, due to the way IPv6 duplicate
address detection is performed.
This document describes a mechanism to allow IPv6 to self-heal after
such a loopback is placed & removed.
