Hi,
Assume that two prefix are advertised by router to hosts in the network. After some 
time the administrator deletes one of the prefixes and the future router advertisement 
will carry only one prefix.

What will hosts do with  the deleted prefix? 
Whether the addresses will be deleted after some time? What is this time?

I feel that the addresses should be deleted immediately if a router stops advertising 
the prefix.
