As this would be done by the CPU, this is not a missing HW feature but
a missing SW feature. And Cisco's BU that's responsible for the WiSM seems
to care very little about IPv6. We run a production dual stack network
and our hackaround regarding the missing RA guard is just horrible (but
working).

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
