Hello everyone,
I´m doing a couple of tests with MIPv6 and trying to make measurements of
each part of the Handover Delay.
This traces was saved on an access router after the Mobile Node moved to it:

22:05:24.323531           :: -> ff02::2      ICMPv6 Router solicitation
22:05:26.425302 fe80::202:2dff:fe07:9948 -> ff02::16     ICMPv6 Multicast
Listener Report Message v2
22:05:27.503736 fe80::202:2dff:fe07:9948 -> fe80::201:2ff:fe1a:d2be ICMPv6
Neighbor solicitation
22:05:27.636692 fe80::201:2ff:fea7:a651 -> ff02::1      ICMPv6 Router

22:05:28.323612           :: -> ff02::2      ICMPv6 Router solicitation
22:05:28.504250 fe80::202:2dff:fe07:9948 -> fe80::201:2ff:fe1a:d2be ICMPv6
Neighbor solicitation
22:05:29.500926 fe80::202:2dff:fe07:9948 -> fe80::201:2ff:fe1a:d2be ICMPv6

22:05:30.841586 fe80::201:2ff:fea7:a651 -> ff02::1      ICMPv6 Router

22:05:31.632542           :: -> ff02::1:ff07:9948 ICMPv6 Neighbor
solicitation
22:05:32.634804  2001:a:b::1 -> 2001:a:b::1000 MIPv6 Binding Update
22:05:33.645575 2001:a:b::1000 -> 2001:a:b::1  MIPv6 Binding Acknowledgement


As we see here the MobileNode is sending an router solicitation at time
24.323531 the Router sent 2,1 seconds later a Router advertisement. (or
tried to send one, this message didn´t came on the Mobile Node)

By the second Router Solicitation, it reacted first after 2,36 seconds.

Because I configured Radvd on the Router with with MaxRtrAdvInterval 0.5 and
MinRtrAdvInterval 0.1. I would have expected it to send an unsolicitated
Router Advertisement not later than each half a second. But as you see it
here, this is not Happening.
I´m using Radvd Version 1.2. 

Thx for any advices

Hakim




--------Radvd.conf----------
 
   interface eth3

        AdvIntervalOpton;
        prefix2001:a:f2:1::1/64
        {
               AdvRouterAddr on;
               AdvOnLink on;
               AdvAutonomous on;
        };
   };
