Hi All,
I don't seem to be able to find a definitive answer to this one either in
Juniper's docs, or the very dry RFCs I've been ploughing through but:
I have an SRX (9.6) running a small IPv6 network (a tunnel and a /48 provided
by HE). I have statically allocated a /64 from the /48 to a vlan interface and
enabled RA. Host machines (OSX 10.6.2) on that VLAN are discovering addresses
from that range correctly, and traffic is being forwarded as expected, but the
address they learn for their router is actually the link-local address on the
SRX vlan interface, rather than the static address that I would expect.
This seems counter-intuitive, but it may also be my current lack of RA clue!
Here you can see the configured and the link-local addresses on the interface:
r...@srx100-border# run show interfaces terse vlan.10
Interface Admin Link Proto Local Remote
vlan.10 up up inet 172.16.10.252/24
inet6 2001:470:f083:aaaa::1/64
fe80::224:dcff:fe6b:788/64
r...@srx100-border# show protocols | display set
set protocols router-advertisement interface vlan.10 prefix
2001:470:f083:aaaa::/64
Meanwhile, on the client:
lojack:~ bendale$ ifconfig en1
en1: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::219:e3ff:fed5:eac6%en1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5

lojack:~ bendale$ netstat -rnf inet6
Routing tables

Can anyone enlighten me?
