Example: if you give administrators the option of putting a router address in a DHCP option, they will do so and some fraction of the time, this will be the wrong address and things don't work. If you let routers announce their presence, then it's virtually impossible that something goes wrong because routers know who they are. A clear win.
Counterexample: rogue RAs from Windows boxes running 6to4 or Teredo and Internet Connection Sharing. This is a lot harder to fix than a misconfigured DHCP server. http://malc.org.uk/6doom Tony. -- f.anthony.n.finch <dot () dotat at> http://dotat.at/ HUMBER THAMES DOVER WIGHT PORTLAND: NORTH BACKING WEST OR NORTHWEST, 5 TO 7, DECREASING 4 OR 5, OCCASIONALLY 6 LATER IN HUMBER AND THAMES.
