Abstract:
IPv6 Loopback Suppression and Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) are
discussed in Appendix A of RFC4862. That specification mentions a
hardware-assisted mechanism to detect looped back DAD messages. If
hardware cannot suppress looped back DAD messages, a software
solution is required. Several service provider communities have
expressed a need for automated detection of looped back Neighbor
Discovery (ND) messages used by DAD. This document includes
mitigation techniques and outlines the Enhanced DAD algorithm to
automate the detection of looped back IPv6 ND messages used by DAD.
For network loopback tests, the Enhanced DAD algorithm allows IPv6 to
self-heal after a loopback is placed and removed. Further, for
certain access networks the document automates resolving a specific
duplicate address conflict. This document updates RFC4861, RFC4862,
and RFC4429.
