Abstract:
rfc3927 defines the behavior "Proxy ARP for Everything" in case the
only address present on the host is IPv4 link-local. However, it
does not specify anything about the presence or absence of IPv6
global addressing. This results in the hosts assuming it has both
IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity in the scenario where the host itself is
dualstack-enabled, but the network supplies only IPv6 configuration
information. Some implementations in this case may decide to use
IPv4, which results in long connection delays. This document
proposes to avoid the "Proxy ARP for Everything" behavior if the host
has been assigned an IPv6 address.
