Configuring an IPv6 discovery prefix

The IPv6 discovery prefix determines the source of an IP address or set of IP addresses. The
discovery prefix also permits other tables to share the information through a pointer rather than
by copying. For example, when the node configures both a unicast and anycast address for a
prefix, the ipAddressPrefix objects for those addresses point to a single row in the table.
You can use IPv4 addresses in IPv6. IPv4 prefixes use default values. You can override each
value if an object is meaningful to the node.

If selected, enables the ICMP network unreachable feature.
The default is disabled.
If selected, enables the ICMP redirect message feature. The
default is disabled.
Configures the interval (in milliseconds) for sending ICMPv6
error messages. The default is 1000 milliseconds. An entry of
0 seconds results in no sent ICMPv6 error messages.
The number of ICMP error messages that can be sent during
the ICMP error interval. A value of zero specifies not to send
any. The default value is 50.
If selected, enables multicasting. The default is false.
