>Description:
In routed.8:
> While using Router Discovery (which happens by default when the system
> has a single network interface and a Router Discover Advertisement is re-
> ceived), there is a single default route and a variable number of redi-
> rected host routes in the kernel table.
>
> The Router Discover standard requires that advertisements have a default
> "lifetime" of 30 minutes. That means should something happen, a client
> can be without a good route for 30 minutes. It is a good idea to reduce
> the default to 45 seconds using -P rdisc_interval=45 on the command line
> or rdisc_interval=45 in the /etc/gateways file.
>
