+       Changing this value is same as changing ``conf/default/disable_ipv6``
+       setting and also all per-interface ``disable_ipv6`` settings to the same
+       value.
+
+       Reading this value does not have any particular meaning. It does not say
+       whether IPv6 support is enabled or disabled. Returned value can be 1
+       also in the case when some interface has ``disable_ipv6`` set to 0 and
+       has configured IPv6 addresses.
+
 conf/all/forwarding - BOOLEAN
        Enable global IPv6 forwarding between all interfaces.
