Hi!
Is it possible to specify a link-local address in rc.conf, and get only that
link-local address?
When I add a specific link-local address, such as fe80::1/64, to an interface
from the command line,
and then add a global uincast address, it works as expected, I do not get an
additional link-local address.
What is exact syntax what works for you manually?
ifconfig vtnet0 inet6 fe80::1/64
ifconfig vtnet0 inet6 2001:6b8::1/64
This does not create additional link-local addresses, just fe80::1.
When I try to do the same in rc.conf however, it does not work.
I have added the following:
ifconfig_vtnet0_inet6="inet6 fe80::1/64"
ifconfig_vtnet0_alias0="2001:6b8::1/64"
You missed "inet6 " address family prefix for the last line. Does adding it
help?
No, that's just an error from transcribing the setup. With that in
/etc/rc.conf I get three addresses on the interface;
* fe80::1/64
* the EUI64 link-local address (fe80::<EUI64>/64)
* 2001:6b8::1/64
