Firewire vs SEND
Generally, driver should be simple as possible.
- State management should be minimized.
Even if the driver needs to maintain per-neighbor state (e.g. node-id), it may be worth to try to have such information attached to each NCE (Neighbor Cache Entry).
At the same time, I was thinking about implementation of SEND (Securing Neighbor Discovery), which should maintain additional L3-specific neighbor information.
