[DNA] MUST NOT add DNA Option when landmark RA = NO?(draft-pentland-dna-protocol-00.txt)
I'm confused by this statement in the draft:
In Section 5.1.4:
"... If the RS contains a Landmark Option whose prefix does not
match any of those in the interface's stored prefix list, then
the Landmark option with the Landmark prefix is included in the
RA but with the No flag set. All fixed options (MTU,
Advertisement Interval, flags, etc.) are added to the Router
Advertisement. Prefix Information Options for any explicitly
configured prefixes SHOULD be added to the Router
Advertisement, while the DNAO for learned prefixes MUST not be
added."
Is there a reason why DNAO MUST NOT be sent in this case?
Isn't it useful to indicate immediately which of the
prefixes are available on the new link?
