This can be important, because networkd collects all available configuration files, then sorts them alphanumerically, and uses the first match for each interface as its configuration. This happens separately for <code>.link</code>, <code>.netdev</code> and <code>.network</code> files, so that you can have one configuration of each type per interface. | ||

When things don't work as expected, the journal for <code>systemd-networkd.service</code> should be consulted. Unfortunately, by default the log is not very useful in its default loglevel. Increasing the loglevel can be done using the <code>SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL</code> environment variable. | |||

=== Router Advertisement === | |||
Router advertisements are way to allow clients to achieve stateless autoconfiguration (SLAAC). The most prominent setup is where the router announces a prefix onto a LAN segment, which the receiving client can use to set up an address on that prefix, and configure the sender as its default gateway. | |||
In this example the router will announce a static IPv6 prefix on the <code>lan</code> interface from it's automatically configured link local address on that link. The router does not generally require a unique local or globally reachable address on the link, unless you also want to host services like DNS and NTP on that LAN segment. | |||

An extended form of this setup uses DHCPv6 prefix delegation to acquire a dynamic prefix over a WAN link, which then gets distributed onto designated LAN segments. | |||
