As a temporary workaround administrators may run ndp -P <if> on affected hosts.
This command flushes all the entries in the prefix list and forces a re-run of
SLAAC on the interface, immediately removing obsolete IPv6 addresses and
triggering reconfiguration from Router Advertisements. To automate this, a cron
job can periodically run a simple connectivity test (for example a ping to a
known IPv6 endpoint) and, if it does not complete within a reasonable time,
execute ndp -P <if>. This avoids long periods with unreachable but still-valid
addresses, although it requires manual or scripted execution and does not
replace proper honoring of pltime/vltime settings in rtadvd.
