	This set of interface settings are responsible for the link local
address appearing and would make it accept an IPv6 address and route from a
router advertising them.

	Adding ifdisabled to the ifconfig flags should completely disable
ipV6 on the interface - from man ifconfig:

---------
ifdisabled
        Set a flag to disable all of IPv6 network communications on the
        specified interface.  Note that if there are already configured
        IPv6 addresses on that interface, all of them are marked as
        “tentative” and DAD will be performed when this flag is cleared.
