I want to define in static mapping between ipv6 address and MAC address.(something similar to static arp in ipv4).

(i need to do this because my ubuntu machine is connected by lan to interface that don't use the kernel stack for receiving the packets , and don't know to answer to the ipv6 "neighbor Discovery Protocol" , so i want to config it's the neighbour in a static way)

is it possible?

thanks , eyal
