The IPv6 Neighbor Discovery protocol specifies the maximum time
allowed between sending unsolicited multicast Router Advertisements (RAs)
from a router interface as well as the maximum router lifetime. It
also allows the limits to be overridden by documents that are specific
to the link layer. This document allows for overriding these values on a
per-link basis.
This document specifies updates to the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery
Protocol (RFC 4861) to increase the maximum time allowed between
sending unsolicited multicast RAs from a router interface as well as
to increase the maximum router lifetime.
This document is a product of the IPv6 Maintenance Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this
