Hello,

I noticed luci setting dhcp.lan.ra_management=1 while proof-reading "UNSAVED CHANGES" in the web-ui using OpenWRT 14.07.
This options is not documented in http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/uci/dhcp - what does it do?
Can you fix the docs (you as in: the folks who know what's going on).

Thanks,
yanosz

I agree, I too would like to know what "dhcp.lan.ra_management=1" means?

Thanks :-)

it seems dhcp.lan.ra_management relates to IPv6 DHCP server

The 'folks who know' determined that option is required for the alteration(s) yanosz performed.

Here, perhaps yanosz or MrBW invest their time to become the community experts and update the wiki?

And here's the non-dickish reply, i.e. an actual answer:

dhcp.interface.ra_management directly translates to the ra_management "management mode" parameter as (rudimentarily) documented in https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/techref/odhcpd:

0 = M-Flag, 1 = M- and A-flag, 2 = A-flag
