I'm not seeing them at all. I've tried: ifconfig fxp1 down/up, 
/rc.d/network_ipv6 restart, /netif/restart and rebooting. I even tried 
upping the sysctl value for the # of DAD transmits to 2 and still see 
sent.

It does send the NA if someone sends an NS though.

We have had DAD related issues even on FreeBSD 6.2. FreeBSD does not 
seem to perform DAD when an interface is brought down administratively 
(ifconfig) and then brought back up. It performs DAD on boot though, or 
when a new IPv6 address is added to an interface.

Are you seeing similar problems?

Thanks,
