Hello Freebsd-net, I have Point-to-Point Ethernet connection one end of which FreeBSD 11, an other end is Windows. It is, really, patch-cord between tow systems, not a some tunnel, but physical Ethernet cards. I want to announce IPv6 Prefix to Windows. FreeBSD system has other live interfaces and I don't want any routing performed by this system. I have manual IPv6 address configuration on FreeBSD and rtadvd running on this "P2P" interface. But rtadvd complains: rtadvd[2663]: non-zero lifetime RA but net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=0. Ignored. But I don't need IPv6 forwarding! I only want Prefix announcement to avoid manual configuration of Windows host and virtual boxes on this host! Is it possible to achieve such configuration? -- Best regards, Lev mailto:lev@FreeBSD.org
