Note, you can use RA for default gateway while still using static addressing.
Could you give me a little bit more on this?
Easy: have the RAs sent w/ a prefix information option included, but w/o the A bit being set.
It seems to me that most platforms stop listening to RAs once you give them a static address.
That is (IMHO) a broken implementation. A static address, or even a statically configured default gateway, should not prevent RAs from being processed. /TJ
