Hello I'm using radvd to send RA in an IPv6 test network. When using 64 bits long prefixes, everything works fine, my network is functional. But when i use 48 bits long prefixes, the hosts do not perform address autoconfiguration. I used exactly the same configuration than with the /64... Is it a problem or am i missing or misunderstanding something ?
As far as I know autoconf only works with /64. What would be the benefit
of using another prefix length? The 16 bits more would not be used anyway,
because the mechanism only generates 64 bit host addresses.
Best regards
Matthias
