net: if: Setup DAD timer regardless of DAD query result (008a7ca2) · Commits · Wenxi XU / zephyr

In rare occasions when sending DAD NS packet fails, we should still setup the DAD timer, unless we implement some kind of more advanced retry mechanism. If we don't do that, the IPv6 address added to the interface will never be usable in such cases. Signed-off-by:
