4Module options may be given as command line arguments to the insmod
5or modprobe command, but are usually specified in either the
6/etc/modules.conf or /etc/modprobe.conf configuration file, or in a
7distro-specific configuration file.

20
21 The possible values and their effects are:
22
23 0
24 IPv6 is enabled.
25
26 This is the default value.
27
28 1
29 IPv6 is disabled.
30
31 No IPv6 addresses will be added to interfaces, and
32 it will not be possible to open an IPv6 socket.
33
34 A reboot is required to enable IPv6.
