Re: IPv6 setup script ... doesn't work!!
Mario,
Thank you! I am beyond appreciation and respect to you!
I feel I also learned a lot about shell scripting while doing this.
You are truly a kind soul for letting your experience influence
my life, man. Again, thank you.
1) How would this setup look in rc.conf?
Since FreeBSD 5 is all about centralizing, they say,
I'd appreciate being able to move all my vital configuration
into one place.
2) Does this code look OK now then?
case "$1" in
start)
ifconfig gif create
ifconfig gif0 inet 213.187.181.70 213.121.24.85
ifconfig gif0 inet6 2001:618:400::d5bb:b546 prefixlen 128
route add -inet6 default 'fe80::%gif0'
ifconfig lnc0 inet6 2001:618:400:6ad9:: prefixlen 64
sysctl -w net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1
/usr/sbin/rtadvd lnc0
if [ $? = "0" ]; then
echo "IPv6 activated."
else
echo "IPv6 activation failed." 1>&2
exit 1
fi
;;
stop)
killall -m rtadvd
sysctl -w net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=0
ifconfig fxp0 inet6 2001:618:400:6ad9:: prefixlen 64 delete
route delete -inet6 default fe80::%gif0
ifconfig gif0 inet6 2001:618:400::d5bb:b546 prefixlen 128 delete
ifconfig gif0 delete
if [ $? = "0" ]; then
echo "IPv6 deactivated."
else
echo "IPv6 deactivation failed" 1>&2
exit 1
fi
;;
restart)
$0 stop
echo Pausing 5 seconds before restart ...
sleep 5
$0 start
;;
*)
echo "Usage: `basename $0` {start|stop|restart}" 1>&2
exit 1
esac
exit 0
3) By the way, are you up for hire?
All the best,

Looks like a typo, this is probably just ifconfig.
> route add -inet6 default fe80::%gif0
The shell will mangle this. Quote it, like 'fe80::%gif0'.
> ifconfig fxp0 inet6 2001:618:400:6ad9:: prefixlen 64
Replace every occurence of fxp0 with your ethernet NIC (i.e. xl0).
> sysctl ?w net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1
^^
Another typo, this is supposed to be -w.

Eh? So if echo on stdout fails, we're moving to stderr?
What am I missing here?
I'd guess the actual intent was more like
/usr/sbin/rtadvd fxp0
if [ $? = "0" ]; then
echo "IPv6 activated."
else
echo "IPv6 activation failed." 1>&2
exit 1
fi
> gifconfig gif0 delete
> echo "IPv6 deactivation complete!" ||
> { echo "IPv6 deactivation failed!" 1>&2; exit 1; }

More junk code.
> echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
echo "Usage: `basename $0` {start|stop|restart}" 1>&2
> Where did I go wrong?
You didn't. The script is rotten.

Mario

IPv6 setup script ... doesn't work!!
Hello!
I just registered with BTExact, and they sent me ipv6.sh:
#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in
start)
#ifconfig gif create
gifconfig gif0 inet 213.187.181.70 213.121.24.85
ifconfig gif0 inet6 2001:618:400::d5bb:b546 prefixlen 128
route add -inet6 default fe80::%gif0
ifconfig fxp0 inet6 2001:618:400:6ad9:: prefixlen 64
sysctl ?w net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1
/usr/sbin/rtadvd fxp0
echo "IPv6 activation complete!" ||
{ echo "IPv6 activation failed!" 1>&2; exit 1; }
;;
stop)
killall -m rtadvd
sysctl -w net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=0
ifconfig fxp0 inet6 2001:618:400:6ad9:: prefixlen 64 delete
route delete -inet6 default fe80::%gif0
ifconfig gif0 inet6 2001:618:400::d5bb:b546 prefixlen 128 delete
gifconfig gif0 delete
echo "IPv6 deactivation complete!" ||
{ echo "IPv6 deactivation failed!" 1>&2; exit 1; }
;;
restart)
$0 stop
echo Pausing 5 seconds before restart ...
sleep 5
$0 start
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
exit 1
esac
exit 0
I get this when I run it:
gifconfig: not found
ifconfig: interface gif0 does not exist
fe80::%gif0: bad value
ifconfig: interface fxp0 does not exist
sysctl: unknown oid '?w'
IPv6 activation complete!
I have this configuration in /etc/rc.conf:
# *** IPv6 configuration
#
gif_interfaces="gif0"
ipv6_enable="YES"
ipv6_gateway_enable="YES"
ipv6_defaultrouter="-interface gif0"
ipv6_network_interfaces="gif0 lnc0 ep0"
ipv6_firewall_enable="YES"
ipv6_firewall_type="open"
rtadvd_enable="YES"
rtadvd_interfaces="ep0"
Where did I go wrong?
Thanks! And all the best,
-- from Fafa!
