Hi David,

thanks for spotting this. As an IPv6 user, I should have seen and noticed that myself.

I have drafted a fix in zg/icmpv6, https://salsa.debian.org/debian/ferm/-/tree/zg/icmpv6?ref_type=heads, but didnt get around yet to fixing it. Would you want to try?


Hi Marc,

I did a quick and dirty test by downloading only debian/ferm-early.conf from that branch and putting it in /etc/ferm/ferm-early.conf (also removed my local modifications) followed by a reboot. It seems to work as expected (DHCPv6 lease obtained quickly, boot wasn't delayed).

Are you already running a reasonably late ferm version that allows you to run with debugging enabled? I would be interested in exactly how the early ruleset looks on your system with the patch.

Greetings
Marc
