Setting up Vyatta for IPv6 SLAAC

Here's how the configuration should look like 

vyos@vyos# show interfaces ethernet eth1

 hw-id 00:50:56:a9:de:62

 ipv6 {

     address {

         eui64 2002:cafe:cafe:cafe::/64

     }

 }


vyos@vyos# show service router-advert 

 interface eth1 {

     prefix 2002:cafe:cafe:cafe::/64 {

     }

     route 2002:cafe:cafe:cafe::/64 {

     }

 }


Ensure your network doesnt have security policy which blocks RA and ND.
