Unfortunately IPv6 isn't working for me. Would it be all right if I quote the contents of the files in a question to oclug? Thanks, bjb The question will be like this, it's long and ugly but I think all the info is there if someone wants to answer it: ================================================== Subject: IPv6 connection to TekSavvy question I have obtained an IPv6 subnet from TekSavvy and I'm trying to configure my linux router to bring it up. I've configured the ppp "peer" file (called teksavvy6) like this: -------------------------------------------------- # teksavvy IPv6 pty "/usr/sbin/pppoe -I eth0 -T 80 -m 1452" defaultroute #replacedefaultroute hide-password # send LCP echo-request every 20 seconds lcp-echo-interval 20 # close connection after 6 consecutive non-responses to echo-request # (2 minutes) lcp-echo-failure 6 # don't require peer to authorize noauth mtu 1492 maxfail 0 persist # no address/control compression noaccomp # don't escape any of ascii 0-31 default-asyncmap #holdoff 20 #plugin rp-pppoe.so eth0 user [email protected] usepeerdns debug unit 1 +ipv6 #ipv6cp-accept-local #ipv6 , ipv6cp-use-ipaddr #ipv6cp-use-persistent noip -------------------------------------------------- and set up the secret. When I run pon teksavvy6 (with the pty line commented out), the link starts to come up and it does authenticate but when it gets to the IPV6CP stage, any overtures it makes to Teksavvy are rejected: ... Feb 3 20:53:05 gateway pppd[6880]: rcvd [PAP AuthAck id=0x1 ""] Feb 3 20:53:05 gateway pppd[6880]: sent [IPV6CP ConfReq id=0x1 <addr fe80::49f1:a0ae:6d16:deec>] Feb 3 20:53:05 gateway pppd[6880]: rcvd [LCP ProtRej id=0x84 80 57 01 01 00 0e 01 0a 49 f1 a0 ae 6d 16 de ec] Feb 3 20:53:05 gateway pppd[6880]: Protocol-Reject for 'IPv6 Control Protocol' (0x8057) received ... I've tried replacing ipv6cp-use-ipaddr with each of: ipv6 , ipv6 ::1, ipv6cp-accept-local ipv6-use-persistent with pretty much the same results. The ConfReq line usally has a different address each time. The "ipv6 ::1," line resulted in an address like fe80::1 but apart from that they seem randomly assigned. I've tried putting in the pty line, but as I don't have a /usr/sbin/pppoe on my system it results in a continuous stream of fork attempts as pppd tries to fork a nonexisting program on each and every channel, one after the other. pppoe seems to be built-in as a plugin to the version of pppd that I'm running, I can see its output when I have this line in teksavvy6 (peers file): plugin rp-pppoe.so eth0 output from pppd on running pon teksavvy6: Plugin rp-pppoe.so loaded. So my question is, - is it a mistake on my part, or do I need to ask TekSavvy to do something so my requests are accepted? And/or how do I make the plugin pppoe behave as the config pty line wants it to? I have received an helpful pair of example peers files from someone to work from, here they are: (contents of ipv4.txt) (contents of ipv6.txt) I've also looked at this blog article which looks pretty good actually but it seems to be a more redhat-ish style of config, unlike my Debian system: http://blog.stuffedcow.net/2010/09/teksavvy-ipv6/ Thanks in advance for your help ... bjb ================================================== > > > > Could you send the pppoe config files for IPv4 and IPv6 for > > connecting to teksavvy please? > > > > Thanks! > > > > bjb > > ---end quoted text--- ----- End forwarded message ----- _______________________________________________ Linux mailing list [email protected] http://oclug.on.ca/mailman/listinfo/linux
