By looking quickly at the code, I'd say this is supposed to work.  
Could you send the mip6d log of the MN? Especially, are these values  
correctly displayed in the debug (there are printed at startup)? That  
would help to know if it is a problem from the parser or later in the  
code.

INITIAL_SOLICIT_TIMER is a protocol constant defined by the MobileIPv6  
specification. This is I guess the reason why it is not configurable.  
However it seems that the specification does not forbid the use of  
another value, so this could be made configurable too.
