Unsolicited router advertisements are sent as specified in RFC 4861 6.2.4 (first several advertisements separated by short interval, then based on configurable 'max ra interval'. They are also resent after address changes. There is not a command to explicitly request sending unsolicited router advertisements, but restarting radv protocol does that (and as there is almost no state in radv protocol, there is no problem with that) -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'SanTiago' Zajicek (email: santi...@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
