            Bug ID: 225063
           Summary: Add ifconfig_DEFAULT_ipv6 for fallback like
                    ifconfig_DEFAULT
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: conf
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: xistence@0x58.com

I recently started playing with an Pine64 board using the latest ARM images
available for CURRENT, and I noticed that there is a:

ifconfig_DEFAULT=3D"DHCP"

Which is used as the fallback for allowing whatever interfaces exist and do=
n't
have explicit configuration to reach out over DHCP.

I'd like to have a similar flag for IPv6, so that the default could ship wi=
th
IPv6 enabled in /etc/rc.conf as well so that devices are automatically
dual-stacked by default.

ifconfig_DEFAULT_ipv6=3D"inet6 accept_rtadv"

Could also be useful for VM images where the device name may not be known a=
head
of time due to the emulated hardware
