I noticed an odd behavior regarding IPv6 after upgrading my 7.0R box to 7.1R. The situation and symptom are the following: 1. The box has two NICs. One has an address 2001:0db8:1::1/64 (NIC A), and another has 2001:0db8:2::1/64 (NIC B). These addresses are assigned manually ($ipv6_ifconfig in rc.conf). 2. RA is periodically sent to the network 2001:0db8:1::1/64 (NIC A) by a router on the subnet. The RA includes a source link-layer address option only. When setting net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv=1 in this configuration, I expected the box assigns an autoconf IPv6 address (prefix 2001:0db8:1::/64 + EUI64) to NIC A and an default route based on source link-layer address in the RA packet. Actually, these two were done as expected. However, after addresses are assigned, routes for NIC B disappeared from the routing table. More specifically, a cloning route "2001:0db8:2::1/64 -> link#2" was removed for some reason. Is this an expected behavior?
I don't think so. Can you file a PR and get it assigned to bz@ and I'll look in two weeks or so once I am fully back. /bz -- Bjoern A.
