.Sh NAME
.Nm slaacd
.Nd a stateless address autoconfiguration daemon
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm
.Op Fl dv
.Op Fl s Ar socket
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm
is a stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC) daemon for clients.
It listens for IPv6 router advertisement messages,
for example those sent by
.Xr rtadvd 8 ,
on interfaces with the
.Sy AUTOCONF6
flag set.
.Nm
derives IPv6 addresses and default routes from received router
advertisements and installs them in the kernel.
See
.Xr hostname.if 5
and
.Xr ifconfig 8
on how to enable auto configuration on an interface.
.Pp
.Nm
monitors network interface states (interface going up or down,
auto configuration enabled or disabled etc.) and sends router solicitations
when necessary.
.Pp
A running
.Nm
can be controlled with the
.Xr slaacctl 8
utility.
.Pp
The options are as follows:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Fl d
Do not daemonize.
If this option is specified,
.Nm
will run in the foreground and log to
.Em stderr .
.It Fl s Ar socket
Use an alternate location for the default control socket.
.It Fl v
Produce more verbose output.
Multiple
.Fl v
options increase the verbosity.
.El
.Sh FILES
.Bl -tag -width "/dev/slaacd.sockXX" -compact
.It Pa /dev/slaacd.sock
.Ux Ns -domain
socket used for communication with
.Xr slaacctl 8 .
