I got a kernel built with the patches using the wiki and your notes in 0004586 (thanks). I am pleased to report that they appear to work as advertised. With: net.ipv6.conf.default.forwarding = 2 net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra = 2
Router solicitations were issued and router advertisements were accepted and I could still forward packets.
I have built the latest version of cplus kernel with the patches applied. The proposed process for patch addition did work well. It is available as 'kernel-devel-2.6.32-71.24.1.el6.centos.ayplus.1' from:

Steve, could you please test this kernel? Looks like this is going to be the first patch set added to the C6plus kernel.
Sure - I am downloading it now.
Oops - I am using i386 not x86_64 and it appears you only have re-compiled the x86_64 kernels. At least that is what I am assuming looking at the dates and the fact the i386 kernel did not work in regards to the new behavior with router solicitations and router advertisements.
Thank you for the testing.
Odd. I did build both arches. x86_64 was re-rebuilt after the i386 version, which is why it has a newer date.
I will go back to the drawing board and make sure the patches are in place.
If I may ask one more thing ... I think we should continue the current effort in the bug tracker rather than here on this list. Would you mind filing a new request at http://bugs.centos.org under the CentOS-6-Plus category ?
