[Oct 28 11:16:18] radvd: version 0.8 started
[Oct 28 11:16:18] radvd: IPv6 forwarding setting is: 0, should be 1
[Oct 28 11:16:18] radvd: IPv6 forwarding seems to be disabled, but continuing anyway.
[Oct 28 11:16:18] radvd: hardware type for intern is 1
[Oct 28 11:16:18] radvd: mtu for intern is 9000
[Oct 28 11:16:18] radvd: link layer token length for intern is 48
[Oct 28 11:16:18] radvd: prefix length for intern is 64
[Oct 28 11:16:18] radvd: hardware type for multi-1 is 1

That does the trick, thanks.
