It was 2:30 AM and someone decided to do shit on the network again the
last half hour.

% ndp -rn
fe80::64:2%en0 if=en0, flags=O, pref=medium, expire=24m58s
fe80::6600:f1ff:feae:d71f%en0 if=en0, flags=TS, pref=medium, expire=Never

especially happy given the "expire=Never" which will make a lot of
people unhappy in the morning.

Lucky for whomever it was my scrolllback buffer in my tcpdump window
was too small.


We either need to have a polite word with all these kiddies or we need
a different solution to the problem;  I for myself will now monitor my
default router list and just flush it when I see other stuff in there
or just make it static and not accept RAs anymore.  I do understand that
this is not a solution we can tell people...
