A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Triggering ND Address Resolution on Receiving DAD-NS Authors : I. Chen J. Halpern Filename : draft-halpern-6man-nd-pre-resolve-addr-00.txt Pages : 7 Date : 2014-01-10 Abstract: This draft proposes a new optional event to trigger address resolution using IPv6 Neighbor Discovery. This helps optimize router performance, and can help mitigate certain potential ND-related denial-of-service attacks. Upon receiving a DAD-NS message, the neighbor solicitation message used to detect duplicate addresses, if the target address encoded in the DAD-NS is not a duplicate address, the receiving device responds by triggering address resolution for the target address in the DAD-NS, in preparation for expectant future communication with the sending device.
