Hi,

Please capture tcpdump's of what's happening.

I believe that even though initio is not sending out router advertisements 
(I'm a bit doubtful about the reliability of zebra, so tcpdump's would be 
nice), if you configure it as a router, it will by default respond to 
router solicitations which the host will be sending -- and might answer to 
packets in that way.

You could test this by setting off interface-specific forwarding flags 
(see src/linux/Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt)

You could also, of course, disable auto-configuration in the host..
