IPv6 addrconf: prefix with wrong length

after i got up my ubuntu server i checked the syslog where the kernel kept griping about the following.

IPv6 addrconf: prefix with wrong length 48

To keep the syslog clean i searched for a way to suppress that message. it´s simple.

In /etc/sysctl.conf i add two lines

net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra = 0
net.ipv6.conf.all.autoconf = 0

There you go.
