>Description:
The problem is about 'rtadvd' command.
According rtadvd.conf(8), we can change vltime and pltime in
/etc/rtadvd.conf. Then we have changed /etc/rtadvd.conf as
following and done 'rtadvd -fdD ne2'. However RA has
default values instead of our defined values(vltime:2592000,
pltime:604800).
default:\
:chlim#64:raflags#0:rltime#1700:rtime#0:retrans#0:\
:pinfoflags#192:vltime#30:pltime#25:mtu#1500:
ne2:\
:addrs#1:addr0="3ffe:501:ffff:1::":prefixlen#64:tc=default:
Note that rltime had been chaned from 1800 to 1700.
>How-To-Repeat:
Write the following to /etc/rtadvd.conf and run 'rtadvd'.
default:\
:chlim#64:raflags#0:rltime#1700:rtime#0:retrans#0:\
:pinfoflags#192:vltime#30:pltime#25:mtu#1500:
ne2:\
:addrs#1:addr0="3ffe:501:ffff:1::":prefixlen#64:tc=default:
Capture a RA packet and see inside of it(Ethereal is good).
