F5 BigIP LTM IPv6 RA

In order to have the F5 BigIP LTM announce IPv6 Router Advertisements (RA) you have to logon to the console and create the following config file:

#
# /etc/radvd.conf
#
interface [interface name]
{
AdvSendAdvert on;
MinRtrAdvInterval 5;
MaxRtrAdvInterval 10;
AdvDefaultPreference low;
AdvHomeAgentFlag off;
prefix xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::/yy
{
AdvOnLink on;
AdvAutonomous on;
AdvRouterAddr off;
};
};

You have to use lower-case characters for the interface or vlan name otherwise this will not work!

Then stop the service: bigstart stop radvd
And start the service again: bigstart start radvd
