Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Răzvan Sandu 2013-08-10 07:08:23 UTC

Document URL:

https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html-single/Deployment_Guide/index.htm

Section Number and Name:

Chapter V, "Servers"


Describe the issue: 

There is no reference for configuring the radvd daemon for IPv6 routers.
The most common parameters and options in /etc/radvd.conf should be presented, including some configuration examples and a link to a complete reference list of radvd parameters.

Suggestions for improvement: 

Please add the subsection about radvd in Chapter V, along with other infrastructure server descriptions (DHCP, DNS, etc.)

Thanks!

Thank you very much for taking the time to report this issue, Răzvan. Stephen, could you please take a look at this request?

Comment 3 Stephen Wadeley 2014-07-18 07:06:53 UTC

I am sorry, but due to lack of time, proposing for RHEL6.7

-----------------------
BTW, I noticed that these man pages are available after installing radvd:
man radvd
man radvd.conf
----------------------------------------

Comment 4 Stephen Wadeley 2015-07-09 18:46:49 UTC

I am sorry, but due to lack of time, proposing for RHEL6.8
