The test exits WARN because no specifications are written in RFC2462 about which prefix should be used if a node received RA with same prefix and different lifetime.

The NUT received the following RA and spent 180[sec] to be the configued address invalid. 

   ------------------------------------------------------
    Contents of RA 
     Prefix1                 100:100:100::
     PreferredLifetime[sec]    60
     ValidLifetime[sec]        60
     Prefix2                 100:100:100::
     PreferredLifetime[sec]   180
     ValidLifetime[sec]       180
     Prefix3                 100:100:100::
     PreferredLifetime[sec]   120
     ValidLifetime[sec]       120
     Prefix4                 100:100:100::
     PreferredLifetime[sec]    20
     ValidLifetime[sec]        20
