"Further Mitigating Router ND Cache Exhaustion DoS Attacks Using Solicited-Node Group Membership"
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-smith-v6ops-mitigate-rtr-dos-mld-slctd-node-01


"Abstract

For each of their IPv6 unicast or anycast addresses, nodes join a
Solicited-Node multicast group, formed using the lower 24 bits of the
address.  This Solicited-Node group membership could be used by
routers to further mitigate a Neighbor Discovery cache Denial of
Service attack."
