Description

Send a spoofed router advertisement with high priority to force hosts to
start the IPv6 address auto-config. Monitor for IPv6 host advertisements,
and try to guess the link-local address by concatenating the prefix, and
the host portion of the IPv6 address. Use NDP host solicitation to
determine if the IP address is valid.
