Hi Pavel,
But if link local still remains where is the difference between
disabling IPV6 or enabling and choosing link local configuration only ?
In released versions of NetworkManager, there isn't any possibility to disable
IPv6 link-local addresses. In fact it's not properly supported even in the
kernel.
The kernel is forcing me in running an IP-stack on every network interface ?
What if I need an ethernet interface for running FibreChannel over
Ethernet oder Audio over Ethernet (AoE) in Ardour/Jack ?
In such cases I would not need/want any TCPIP-stuff on this interface.
If there is an active IP-stack, I think the rfc requires a link local
address. Surely the kernel can disable a specific protocol for a network
interface.
And I think the network manager gui is designed in exactly this way. On
a global scale I can switch on/off complete protocoll stacks for an
interface. If this i activated, I can drill down to the specific details
and configure link local, dhcpv6, manual, ...
