RDNSS definitions allow to specify a list of advertised
recursive DNS servers together with their options. As options
are seldom necessary, there is also a short variant <cf>rdnss
<m/address/</cf> that just specifies one DNS server. Multiple
definitions are cumulative. RDNSS definitions may also be
interface-specific when used inside interface options. By
default, interface uses both global and interface-specific
options, but that can be changed by <cf/rdnss local/ option.

DNSSL definitions allow to specify a list of advertised DNS
search domains together with their options. Like <cf/rdnss/
above, multiple definitions are cumulative, they can be used
also as interface-specific options and there is a short
variant <cf>dnssl <m/domain/</cf> that just specifies one DNS
search domain.

This option specifies one recursive DNS server. Can be used
multiple times for multiple servers. It is mandatory to have
at least one <cf/ns/ option in <cf/rdnss/ definition.
<tag>lifetime [mult] <m/expr/</tag>
This option specifies the time how long the RDNSS information
may be used by clients after the receipt of RA. It is
expressed either in seconds or (when <cf/mult/ is used) in
multiples of <cf/max ra interval/. Note that RDNSS information
is also invalidated when <cf/default lifetime/ expires. 0
