Prefixes
Use the IP > IPv6 Configuration > Configure IPv6 ND Prefix (Add) page to configure
IPv6 prefixes to include in router advertisements.
Usage Guidelines
Prefixes configured as addresses on an interface are advertised in router
advertisements. If prefixes are configured for advertisement using this page,
then only these prefixes are advertised.
The preferred lifetime and valid lifetime are counted down in real time. After
the preferred lifetime expires, no new connections are made using this prefix.
When the valid lifetime expires, this prefix will no longer be advertised.
All prefixes are inserted in the routing table as Connected (i.e., on-line), unless
specified with the off-link option. If the off-link option is specified, and the
prefix is already present in the routing table as a Connected prefix, it will be
removed.
Do not include the link-local prefix in the list of advertised prefixes.
