Bug#676244: ifupdown: inet6 dhcp should provide accept_ra option
Package: ifupdown Version: 0.7~rc3 Severity: normal Tags: ipv6 Problem is familiar to #629837. With ,,inet6 dhcp'' method net.ipv6.conf.$DEV.accept_ra=0 is set, which disables RA, so no routing information could be acquired. There is no such informations in present DHCPv6 implementation (according to RFC3315). There should be an ,,inet6 static'' option ,,accept_ra'' that I could set to 1 allowing system to process RAs settings. ,,autoconf'' option should be also helpful. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-2-rt-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages ifupdown depends on: ii dpkg 1.16.3 ii initscripts 2.88dsf-22.1 ii iproute 20120319-1 ii libc62.13-32 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian4 ifupdown recommends no packages.

Hello, I know about inet6 auto but as you mentioned, this is only for statless addresses. There is lack of accept_ra in dhcp method for statefull address configuration via DHCPv6. -- Mariusz Sawicki | rash (at) e-point . pl | e-point SA Glowny Administrator Systemow | http://www.e-point.pl PGP key at: http://staff.e-point.pl/~rash/rash_ep.asc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
