Subject: [PATCH] Disable router anycast address for /127 prefixes
Date: Fri,  1 Jul 2011 13:22:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1309519330-16649-1-git-send-email-bjorn@mork.no> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110630104713.52e085dd@nehalam.ftrdhcpuser.net>

RFC 6164 requires that routers MUST disable Subnet-Router anycast
for the prefix when /127 prefixes are used.

Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no>

How about something like this?
