Dear all:
I use command, date, to set current time. I find this causes the two
problems. I test the following two cases in freebsd 5.5-STABLE and
in freebsd 7.0-BETA2, and I find the result is the same.
1.in neighbor discovery protocol(ndp)
The following is my command sequence.
$ ndp -a
Neighbor Linklayer Address Netif
Expire S Flags
2001:b121:4::cccc 0:50:8d:48:57:9a fxp0
permanent R
2001:b121:4:0:41f7:42ee:d08c:ca8c 0:90:cc:c2:aa:61 fxp0 26s
R
9999:9999::1 0:5:1c:15:a:8b rl0
permanent R

===============================================================================================
I adjust system current time to one year ago by using 'date' command. we can
find
ndp expiration time, in Expire column, also extended one year. Is this OK?
2.in router advertisement daemon(rtadvd)
I also adjust system current time to test rtadvd. Before I adjust system
current time, rtadvd can send unsolicited RA periodically. rtadvd can send
unsolicited RA about from 200 seconds to 600 seconds each time. But after I
adjust system current time to one year ago, rtadvd does not send unsolicited
RA any more. Is the behavior correct?
