If true, RAs are accepted; if false, RAs are ignored, independently of the local forwarding state.
If unset, the kernel's default is used, and RAs are accepted only when local forwarding
is disabled for that interface. When RAs are accepted, they may trigger the start of the DHCPv6 client if
the relevant flags are set in the RA data, or if no routers are found on the link.</para>
