If this is not what you want, you should simply set

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/ethX/accept_ra
echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/ethX/autoconf

But not disable accept_ra entirely.

No. The default route will come over RA in most real-world configurations. It is wrong to disable accept_ra with DHCPv6 only.
