#20484: setting PPPoE as connection method for 'wan' should set interface for
'wan6' too
--------------------------+-------------------
Reporter: anonymous | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: high | Milestone:
Component: luci | Version: Trunk
Keywords: dhcpv6, ipv6 |
--------------------------+-------------------
i upgraded to CC 15.05 today and i found out that if i set the wan
interface to PPPoE mode then IPv6 seems broken and i won't get any error
messages in the log about why...
i removed "option src_port 547 " from the firewall config... that did not
help... until i figured that the router was not trying to use the PPPoE
connection for IPv6...
my provider serves dual stack IPv4 and IPv6 via the same PPPoE connection
and when i switched the wan interface to PPPoE mode the router didn't even
bother to suggest/ask that i should use it for wan6 too... and did not
even include the wan(pppoe) interface in the list of available
adapters...all the IPv6 connectivity was dead...
fortunately i had some old saved tar.gz configuration files around and i
figured i had to manually change the wan6 configuration in the
/etc/config/network
this is working for IPv6 via the PPPoE connection established by the main
wan:
{{{
config interface 'wan6'
option ifname '@wan'
option _orig_ifname '@wan'
option _orig_bridge 'false'
option proto 'dhcpv6'
option reqprefix 'auto'
option reqaddress 'try'
}}}
(before tweaking it, it was trying to use eth0 instead of the @wan pppoe
connection)
please tweak the interface logic so that when pppoe is selected for wan
the router should ask if it should also use the same connection for wan6
