NAME

routerSendUnsolRaMin - NUT sends configured RAs.

TARGET

  Router only

SYNOPSIS

  routerSendUnsolRaMin.seq [-tooloption ...] -p routerSendUnsolRaMin.def

INITIALIZATION

  Start NUT advertising RAs:

    MaxRtrAdvInterval                   10
    MinRtrAdvInterval                   7
    AdvCurHopLimit                      64
    AdvManagedFlag&AdvOtherConfigFlag   False
    AdvDefaultLifetime                  0 (min value)
    AdvReachableTime                    0 (min value)
    AdvRetransTimer                     0 (min value)
    AdvOnlinkFlag&AdvAutonomousFlag     True
    AdvValidLifetime                    2592000
    AdvPerferredLifetime                604800
    AdvLinkMTU                          1500

REFERENCE

RFC2461

6.2.4.  Sending Unsolicited Router Advertisements

   A host MUST NOT send Router Advertisement messages at any time.

   Unsolicited Router Advertisements are not strictly periodic: the
   interval between subsequent transmissions is randomized to reduce the
   probability of synchronization with the advertisements from other
   routers on the same link [SYNC].  Each advertising interface has its
   own timer.  Whenever a multicast advertisement is sent from an
   interface, the timer is reset to a uniformly-distributed random value
   between the interface's configured MinRtrAdvInterval and
   MaxRtrAdvInterval; expiration of the timer causes the next
   advertisement to be sent and a new random value to be chosen.
