From eac55bf97094f6b64116426864cf4666ef7587bc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benoit Boissinot Date: Wed, 2 Apr 2008 00:01:35 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] IPv6: do not create temporary adresses with too short preferred lifetime From RFC341: A temporary address is created only if this calculated Preferred Lifetime is greater than REGEN_ADVANCE time units. In particular, an implementation must not create a temporary address with a zero Preferred Lifetime. Signed-off-by: Benoit Boissinot Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S.
