Hello,
The daemon.log on my laptop is being flooded with these messages.

As you can see it happens every few seconds. I'm able to ping the IP
address.
I no little about dhcpcd.
I've read the man pages about dhcpcd.conf.
Do I have to set the option noipv6rs in dhcpcd.conf in order to stop
all these messages?
TIA,
Robert
