 /* UIP_CONF_ND6_SEND_NA enables standard IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol.

+   We enable it by default when IPv6 is used without RPL.
+   With RPL, the neighbor cache (link-local IPv6 <-> MAC address mapping)
+   is fed whenever receiving DIO and DAO messages. This is always sufficient
+   for RPL routing, i.e. to send to the preferred parent or any child.
+   Link-local unicast to other neighbors may, however, not be possible if
+   we never receive any DIO from them. This may happen if the link from the
+   neighbor to us is weak, if DIO transmissions are suppressed (Trickle
+   timer) or if the neighbor chooses not to transmit DIOs because it is
+   a leaf node or for any reason. */
