Router Advertisements
|
|
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
radvd (the service responsible for this functionality) is the router advertisement daemon for IPv6.
|
|
|
|
It listens to router solicitations and sends router advertisements as described in
|
|
|
|
"Neighbor Discovery for IP Version 6 (IPv6)" (`RFC 4861 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4861>`__).
|
|
|
|
With these advertisements hosts can automatically configure their addresses and some other parameters.
|
|
|
|
It also defines "Neighbor Discovery Optimization for IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPANs)"
|
|
|
|
(`RFC6775 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6775>`__). They also can choose a default router based on these advertisements.

Router Advertisements (Mode)
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The mode selection contains some predefined settings for radvd, which influence a set of configuration options
|
|
|
|
and are intended for specific implementation scenarios.
|
|
|
|
They define the type of client deployment used in your network.

|
Router Only Only advertise this router, clients are using static IPv6 addressses
|
|
|
|
Unmanaged Clients will use Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC), without
|
|
|
|
other (non-address) information being provided.
|
|
|
|
Managed Stateful configuration, address configuration provided by DHCPv6
|
|
|
|
Assisted Stateful configuration, address configuration provided by DHCPv6, although
|
|
|
|
advertised routes can also be used on Stateless Address Autoconfiguration
|
|
|
|
setups (SLAAC).
