Package: ifupdown Version: 0.7~alpha4 Severity: minor Tags: experimental When it hits an inet6 static stanza, ifup sets two sysctl variables
net.ipv6.conf.$DEV.accept_ra=0 net.ipv6.conf.$DEV.autoconf=0 The latter disables SLAAC using an EUI-64 MAC-based address on the interface, which is probably the thing you want to have if you configure static addresses (although I'd love to see an option to disable that, I sometimes want static addresses in addition to dynamic ones). The first one however disables all RA processing. This also drops learning the default route from a router. It is a perfectly legal (and even recommended) setup to set addresses statically, but learn the default route from the router advertisement. Please do not set this variable or at least make the behaviour configurable. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.39-1-686-pae (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages ifupdown depends on: ii initscripts 2.88dsf-13.7 scripts for initializing and shutt ii iproute 20110315-1 networking and traffic control too ii libc6 2.13-5 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii lsb-base 3.2-27 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ifupdown recommends no packages.
