Fix Recommendation

Disable proxy "NDP" on the system.

For Appliance OS, "proxy_ndp" is disabled by default.

Check Contents

Determine if SLES for vRealize has proxy "NDP", and if it is enabled:

# more /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/proxy_ndp

If the file is not found, the kernel does not have proxy "NDP", this is not a finding.

If the file has a value of "0", proxy "NDP" is not enabled, this is not a finding.

If the file has a value of "1", proxy NDP is enabled, this is a finding.
