My example was proving that Docsis 3.0 is compliant with the ND RFC 4861
with three RS's to be sent out by an IPv6  cable modem.  See the
MAX_RTR_SOLICITATIONS defined in RFC 4861.  I really do not understand
what you are referring to where you say docsis make a fundamental
mistake of making a layer 2 tech layer 3 aware.
