Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   This document summarizes published Neighbor Discovery (ND) issues
   and then describes how all these issues originate from three causes.
   This document also analyzes the mitigation solutions and demonstrates
   that isolating hosts into different subnets and links can help to
   address the three causes. Guidance is provided for selecting a
   suitable isolation method to prevent potential ND issues.

Working Group Summary

   There was good discussion between working group, and little controversy.
 
Document Quality

   Neighbor Discovery (ND) is a critical part of IPv6, but discussion, considerations and 
   issue mitigation is spread across ~20 RFCs. This document contains a summary of those
   documents to allow implementers and operators to understand the implications, as well
   as mitigations for some deployment issues. 

Personnel

   The Document Shepherd for this document is Timothy Winters.
   The Responsible Area Director is Mohamed Boucadair.
