Ah, thank you for the pointer. I tried it out and It is in fact
"StatefulAddrConf" which has to be disabled. So the line that goes
inside /etc/inet/ndpd.conf would be:

    ifdefault StatefulAddrConf off

I like to get DHCP disabled on servers when I don't use it. There is
no need to make it easier for any rouge people to set up a
man-in-the-middle attack, by simply setting up a DHCP server on the
network.
