Technical Summary
This document defines the use of 127-bit IPv6 prefixes on
inter-router point-to-point links. This is similar to current
practice in IPv4 of using 31-bit prefixes as defined in RFC3021.
This document specifies the reasons and motivation to use 127-bit
IPv6 prefixes on inter-router point-to-point links, and requires
