Router advertisement for stateful IPv6 configuration

RouterOS General
1

I have Mikrotik as default IPv6 gateway sending router advertisements and DHCPv6 server on another machine. It works fine with WinXP and Dibbler DHCPv6 client.
But Windows Vista with it’s native DHCPv6 support does not work. According to this:

it needs M and O flags in router advertisement. It’s AdvManagedFlag on and AdvOtherConfigFlag on in radvd’s terms. Mikrotik sends both off. And I can’t manage to find how to change it. Did I just overlook something, or is it really missing? I can’t believe I’d be the first one who needs it.

probably not in RouterOS yet … maybe email support and ask that they add it nicely : )

Update: It’s already in newer versions of RouterOS, as I accidentally found out today. I don’t know when exactly it was added, wasn’t in 3.20, but it’s there now (under /ipv6 nd). Great. :slight_smile:
