one thing I forgot - with these changes, I'm pushing
the fix for
http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=11001
DHCP and AUTOCONF are required in the ipv6-addrsrc property
The implications of this are that an ipv6-addrsrc
in an IP NCU _must_ (if set) specify dhcp and autoconf.
The reason for this is we don't have a way to switch
these off at present in nwamd, so we don't want
to mislead people into thinking they can configure
static-only. This may have consequences for the test suite and
the GUI, and again existing NCP configuration
will have to be nuked (since an existing config
specifying static only for example will be invalid).
These changes will be pushed together with
those described below. Thanks!
