Configure one of the NDP neighbor maximum solicitations number. There is three different types of NDP Solicitation message : NET_NDP_SOLICIT_MULTICAST, NET_NDP_SOLICIT_UNICAST, NET_NDP_SOLICIT_DAD. 

NET_NDP_SOLICIT_MULTICAST is used when NDP solicitations are send to a solicited-node multicast IPv6 address.
NET_NDP_SOLICIT_UNICAST is used when NDP solicitations are send to a specific host IPv6 unicast address.
NET_NDP_SOLICIT_DAD is used when NDP solicitations are send as a part of the Duplication Address Detection process.
