Duplicate Address Detection goes as follows: Over ICMPv6 * Report to MLD well known multicast group (type 143) * Announce that we are assigning an IP address via multicast. * Send Neighbor Solicitation from :: (type 135) * Let everyone in multicast group know which IP address we are assigning * Listen for Neighbor Advertisement (type 136) * Listen on the mutlicast group for neighbors on the requested IP address * Leave multicast group if a duplicate address is found (type 143) -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/8319> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
