Title : Indicating Link-Local Unicast Destinations are Off-Link Author : Mark Smith Filename : draft-smith-6man-link-locals-off-link-00.txt Pages : 10 Date : 2015-08-16 Abstract: Certain link-layers limit reachability for one set of nodes, while permitting full reachability for a different set of nodes, for unicast, multicast and broadcast traffic. If IPv6 hosts are members of the first set of nodes, and IPv6 routers are members of the second, Link-Local traffic between IPv6 hosts will fail, due to the default on-link assumption for Link-Local destinations. This memo describes the use of a Link-Local Prefix Information Option to indicate to these hosts that Link-Local destinations are "off-link", and are reachable via their default router(s).
