Description: It is the length of time in seconds that this prefix will remain preferred, i.e. time until deprecation. A value of 4,294,967,295 represents infinity.

The address generated from a deprecated prefix should no longer be used as a source address in new communications, but packets received on such an interface are processed as expected.

What is agentIpv6AddrPrefixAdvPreferredLifetime?

How many seconds addresses formed from this prefix remain 'preferred' before becoming deprecated (still usable but no longer chosen for new connections); the special value 4,294,967,295 means the preference never expires.
