Hi,
Sending router solicitations is implemented as a daemon. 
Can't this daemon be implemented as a part of the kernel itself & called by the timeout() periodically to send the solicitations.
Whether such an implementation is possible?
Whether such an implementation effects the performance of freeBSD ip6 stack as a whole.

regards
ravi prasad
