Title:
  routes ignored advertised in ipv6 router advertisement packets

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I'm using ipv6 on a tun device. My router (a debian system) sends out router advertisements using radvd which are received by my ubuntu machine and used for address generation.
  Although the ra's include route information, this is ignored. 
  The interface uses the fec1::/64 prefix and routing is advertised for fec0::/64.
  I cannot add this route to /etc/network/interfaces, as it comes up after vpn is started.

  radvdump:

  interface tap0
  {
  	AdvSendAdvert on;

  	prefix fec1::/64
  	{
  	}; # End of prefix definition

  
  	route fec0::/64
  	{
  		AdvRouteLifetime 30;
  	}; # End of route definition

  
  	RDNSS fec1::254
  	{
  		AdvRDNSSLifetime 10;
  	}; # End of RDNSS definition

  }; # End of interface definition
