hi
   
  i recently saw a thread on DHCPv6 and route advertisement, there is discussion to enable it with a router in network but same can be done with open system routing daemon like zebra quagga on any BSD OS (thats the case with Anjali madam i guess)
   
  you can enable route advertisement (rtadv) for  your open source routing daemons like zebra/ quagga in /etc/rc.conf file
   
  and then create the configuration file, /etc/rtadvd.conf. Here is an example:
  rl0:\
      :addrs#1:addr="2001:5c0:8df2::":prefixlen#64:tc=ether:
  Replace rl0 with the interface you are going to be using.
   
  Next, replace 2001:5c0:8df2:: with the prefix of your allocation.
  If you are dedicated a /64 subnet you will not need to change anything else. Otherwise, you will need to change the prefixlen# to the correct value.
