Fedora Core 4: 2005-595 Moderate: Radvd IPv6 Router Update

fedora
Calendar Grey July 19, 2005
Dist Fedora Esm H88
The recent radvd update in Fedora Core 4 improves IPv6 router advertisements, streamlining network setup for users.
Updated package released.

Summary

Radvd 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 2461). With these

advertisements, hosts can automatically configure their addresses and

some other parameters. They also can choose a default router based on

these advertisements.

Install radvd if you are setting up IPv6 network and/or Mobile IPv6

services.
