I am working on a mobility testbed based on IPv6. In order to improve the performance, I would like to remove the DAD process during the auto-configuration process of an IPv6 address for my testbed. During my experiment, I observed that when an address is configured based on a router advertisement, the outgoing packets can be sent out immediately. But the packets destined to local node can only be received after some time (about 1 sec). I found the lost packets are discarded in the kernel and never make it to the transport layer. I suspect it is caused by the DAD process. I would like to ask for help on how to remove or disable the DAD process properly, as long as the node can send, receive and forward packets immediately after a new IPv6 address is generated. Any pointer is appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance!
