RouterOS uses RADVD to periodically advertise information about the link to all nodes on the same link. The information is carried by ICMPv6 "router advertisement" packet, and includes following fields:
IPv6 subnet prefix
Default router link local address
Other parameters that may be optional: link MTU, default hoplimit, and router lifetime.
Then host catches the advertisement, and configures the global IPv6 address and the default router. Global IPv6 address is generated from advertised subnet prefix and EUI-64 interface identifier.
Optionally, the host can ask for an advertisement from the router by sending an ICMPv6 "router solicitation" packet. On linux rtsol utility transmits the router solicitation packet. If you are running a mobile node, you may want to transmit router solicitations periodically.
