+Do not perform router advertisement toward upstream direction,
+you should only advertise to downstream direction.
+If you advertise toward upstream by mistake,
+you will see icmp6 redirect storm on that subnet.
+This is because of the specification,
+which says that advertising router is assumed to become
+the default outgoing router for end hosts in the subnet.
