From eb142d8ec11b4d0dbda882c18da7c859a5919459 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Gundersen Date: Tue, 23 Feb 2016 00:21:53 +0100 Subject: man: network - improve IPv6Token documentation Enabling router advertisement may even trigger SLAAC or DHCPv6 to be used to configure IPv6 addresses on the link. It may not be obvious that only in the SLAAC case will the Token have an effect. Clarify this in the man page.
