net.ipv6.conf.all.send_redirects

Hi,

Thus wrote George Bonser (gbonser at seven.com):

This is all very much OS dependent. NetBSD has:
net.inet6.ip6.redirect = 1         	(sending)
net.inet6.icmp6.rediraccept = 1     (accepting)

The setting will of course do exactly nothing if the system in question
isn't forwarding.

I suspect other KAME based IPv6 stacks will have the same. 
Whether it's wise to disable sending redirect is left as an exercise for
the reader :-P
