I was thinking about this a little bit, but I'm glad someone (presumably more qualified than me) is doing this. > Wmmm, should rtadvd always be invoked when 'ipv6_gateway_enable="YES" ? Hmmm...two things come to mind. 1) What happens if there are two routers running rtadvd on a single subnet? 2) Are there environments in which a netadmin might not want to use router advertisements? I have this fuzzy feeling that always invoking rtadvd on routers might not be a good idea, but that perhaps making it the default might be good (right now, rtadvd is turned off by default).
