Did you create an /etc/rtadvd.conf?

I have on like:

re0:\
        :addr="2001:XXX:XXXX:XX::":prefixlen#64:

You can either have dhcpcd handle the RAs (net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv=0,
this is the default) or leave it to the kernel and use dhcpcd for IPv4
only (net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv=1).

You can run something like:

dhcpcd -T re0

on the NetBSD host to see what your route publishes.
