[ipxe-devel] [PATCH 06/10] ndp: make IPv6 gateway user-settable

NDP will discover the IPv6 default gateway, so we should make
it user-settable. Unfortunately the default gateway is not
part of the NDP options, so I've introduced a dummy option
'0', which will retrieve the gateway from the miniroute
associated with the 'prefix' option.
