Source Address Validation Improvement (SAVI)
for Mixed Address Assignment Methods Scenario
Abstract
In networks that use multiple techniques for address assignment, the
spoofing of addresses assigned by each technique can be prevented
using the appropriate Source Address Validation Improvement (SAVI)
methods. This document reviews how multiple SAVI methods can coexist
in a single SAVI device and how collisions are resolved when the same
binding entry is discovered by two or more methods.

RFC 8074 SAVI-MIX February 2017
1. Introduction
There are currently several Source Address Validation Improvement
(SAVI) documents ([RFC6620], [RFC7513], and [RFC7219]) that describe
the different methods by which a switch can discover and record
bindings between a node's IP address and a binding anchor and use
that binding to perform source address validation. Each of these
documents specifies how to learn on-link addresses, based on the
technique used for their assignment: StateLess Address
Autoconfiguration (SLAAC), the Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP),
and Secure Neighbor Discovery (SEND), respectively. Each of these
documents describes separately how one particular SAVI method deals
with address collisions (same address but different binding anchor).
While multiple IP assignment techniques can be used in the same layer
