Hello, I am having problems with IPv6 on my r8712u device on Linux 3.0-rc3. Are there any knows issues that would prevent IPv6 from working?
I had the same problem on 2.6.39 as well. I have not tried any other
kernel versions.
I can send a router solicitation with rdisc6:
blee@supra ~ $ sudo rdisc6 -1 wlan0
Soliciting ff02::2 (ff02::2) on wlan0...
Hop limit : 64 ( 0x40)
Stateful address conf. : No
Stateful other conf. : No
Router preference : medium
Router lifetime : 1800 (0x00000708) seconds
Reachable time : unspecified (0x00000000)
Retransmit time : unspecified (0x00000000)
Source link-layer address: 16:2E:1E:CD:9A:2C
Prefix : 2001:470:83fb::/64
Valid time : 2592000 (0x00278d00) seconds
Pref. time : 604800 (0x00093a80) seconds
from fe80::b0
And see both the router solicitation and the router advertisement with
tcpdump:
23:14:21.730250 IP6 fe80::222:cfff:fe3d:deab > ff02::2: ICMP6, router
solicitation, length 8
23:14:21.874660 IP6 fe80::b0 > ff02::1: ICMP6, router advertisement,
length 56
However, no address gets assigned to the interface:
blee@supra ~ $ ip addr show dev wlan0
5: wlan0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast
state UP qlen 1000
link/ether 00:22:cf:3d:de:ab brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 10.0.0.101/24 brd 10.0.0.255 scope global wlan0
inet6 fe80::222:cfff:fe3d:deab/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
