Title : Routing packets from hosts in a multi-prefix network
Authors : Fred Baker
Brian Carpenter
Filename : draft-ietf-6man-multi-homed-host-02.txt
Pages : 13

Abstract:
This document describes expected IPv6 host behavior in a network that
has more than one prefix, each allocated by an upstream network that
implements BCP 38 ingress filtering, when the host has multiple
routers to choose from. It also applies to other scenarios such as
the usage of stateful firewalls that effectively act as address-based
filters.
This host behavior may interact with source address selection in a
given implementation, but logically follows it. Given that the
network or host is, or appears to be, multihomed with multiple
provider-allocated addresses, that the host has elected to use a
source address in a given prefix, and that some but not all
neighboring routers are advertising that prefix in their Router
Advertisement Prefix Information Options, this document specifies to
which router a host should present its transmission. It updates RFC
4861.
