MLD snooping switches may not deliver router solicitation packets to BIG-IP, which breaks BIG-IP's router advertisement functionality. MLD snooping switches may not deliver the packets because BIG-IP has not joined the FF02::2 multicast group.
IPv6 hosts never receive router advertisements from BIG-IP in response to their router solicitations.
router-advertisement configured, MLD snooping switches.
Disable MLD snooping on switches.
BIG-IP now joins the FF02::2 multicast group when router-advertisements are configured.
