I'm trying to become well educated on IPv6 but I'm learning new stuff all the time. Probably a lot of people are. dhcpcd is now the standard, and the dhcpcd.conf man page states this: ipv6 Enable IPv6 on the interface, on by default. ipv6ra_autoconf Generate SLAAC addresses for each Prefix advertised by an IPv6 Router Advertisement message with the Auto flag set. On by default. http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?dhcpcd.conf++NetBSD-current So if you're doing something more fancy than just taking a router advertisement and auto configuring an address, you'll probably have to read that and figure it out. It seems pretty well functioned for IPv6 from how I read it. I really need to do more IPv6 testing on NetBSD.... Andy
