Neighbor Discovery doesn't *USE* SEND yet, either....

I seem to be unable to find the RFC numbers for SEND (except 3756 for the
threat model).  Lacking those, and lacking widespread support for said RFCs
across both router vendors and end-user boxes, I have to call the *current
deployable* Neighbor Discovery as doing the same thing as ARP - "essentially
nothing".

What release of IOS did SEND become stable in?  What release of other router
software did it become stable? What release(s) of Windows, Linux, and Solaris
did the support become stable?

Yes, a year or two down the road, there will hopefully be deployable code.
But not now.
