This is the case of a device that runs on batteries, or a device that is reachable over a wireless interface. For this device, it can be beneficial to filter a certain amount of multicast messages such as the Router Advertisement while preserving the functionality expected in the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol.}, }
