Description
Your company's explanation for this scenario is:
A network using a router lifetime of 108 seconds is misconfigured; this forces the access points to send very frequent router advertisements, which quickly drain batteries of connected devices. For this reason, recent implementations ignore the IPv6 RA if the lifetime is too short, to avoid draining the device battery.
So this is working as intended. The network should be fixed to use a reasonable router lifetime so that IPv6 can be used without draining the battery.
Our clients still have some questions to consult:
1.What do you mean by ignore the IPv6 RA?
Does this mean that I can get an IPv6 address normally but I can't use it?
Would you describe this mechanism?
2.For the current scenario, is it possible to avoid this situation in the software from the user's perspective? Such as:
- Current behaviour: ignore the IPv6 RA if the lifetime is too short, to avoid draining the device battery.
- Proposed behaviour: ignore the IPv6 RA lifetime if the lifetime is too short, to avoid draining the device battery.
Thanks.
