route6d is a routing daemon which supports RIP over
  IPv6.
Options are:
-aroute6d.-R
    routelogroute6d log route changes
      (add/delete) to the file routelog.-A
    prefix/preflen,if1[,if2...]route6d filters specific routes covered by the
      aggregate and advertises the aggregated route
      prefix/preflen to the interfaces specified in the
      comma-separated interface list if1[,if2...].
      route6d creates a static route to
      prefix/preflen, with the
      RTF_REJECT flag set, into the kernel routing
      table.-droute6d to run in foreground mode (i.e., it does
      not become a daemon process).-Droute6d to run in foreground mode (i.e., it does
      not become a daemon process).-h-lroute6d will not exchange site local
      routes for safety reasons. This is because the semantics of site local
      address space are rather vague, as the specification is still being worked
      on, and there is no good way to define the site local boundary. With
      -l, route6d will exchange
      site local routes as well. It must not be used on site boundary routers,
      since -l assumes that all interfaces are in the
      same site.-L
    prefix/preflen,if1[,if2...]route6d will accept incoming routes that are in
      prefix/preflen. If multiple
      -L options are specified, all routes that match
      any of the options are accepted. ::/0 is treated
      specially as default route, not “any route that has longer prefix
      length than, or equal to 0”. If you would like to accept any route,
      specify no -L option. For example, with
      “-L 3ffe::/16,if1
      -L ::/0,if1”
      route6d will accept the default route and routes
      in the 6bone test address range, but no others.-n-N
    if1[,if2...]-O
    prefix/preflen,if1[,if2...]route6d will only advertise routes that match
      prefix/preflen.-qroute6d use listen-only mode. No
      advertisement is sent.-sroute6d advertise the statically defined
      routes which exist in the kernel routing table when
      route6d is invoked. Announcements obey the regular
      split horizon rule.-S-s, except that the
      split horizon rule does apply.-T
    if1[,if2...]-t
    tag0, or hexadecimal prefixed by
      0x.Upon receipt of signal SIGINT or
    SIGUSR1, route6d will dump
    the current internal state into
    /var/run/route6d_dump.
route6d receives a SIGINT
      or SIGUSR1 signalG. Malkin and R. Minnear, RIPng for IPv6, RFC 2080, January 1997.
route6d uses the advanced IPv6 API, defined in RFC 3542,
  for communicating with peers using link-local addresses.
Internally route6d embeds interface
    identifiers into bits 32 to 63 of link-local addresses
    (fe80::xx and ff02::xx) so
    they will be visible in the internal state dump file
    (/var/run/route6d_dump).
Routing table manipulation differs from IPv6 implementation to
    implementation. Currently route6d obeys the WIDE
    Hydrangea/KAME IPv6 kernel, and will not be able to run on other
  platforms.
Currently, route6d does not reduce the
    rate of the triggered updates when consecutive updates arrive.
