One physical link can carry multiple subnets.  Moreover, we can use
multiple physical networks at the same time in a host.  In that
environment, end hosts might have multiple IP addresses and be
required to use them selectively.  Without an appropriate source/
destination address selection mechanism, the host will experience
some trouble in communication.  RFC 3484 defines default source and
destination address selection algorithms, but the multi-prefix
environment considered here needs additional rules beyond those of
the default operation.  This document describes the possible problems
that end hosts could encounter in an environment with multiple
subnets.
