Hi all, I installed bird2 (Debian stock) and configured radv, following the documented example.
When bird it started, it said: Apr 24 12:36:55 31 north bird: static1: Channel ipv6 connected to table radv_routes Apr 24 12:36:55 31 north bird: static1: Initializing Apr 24 12:36:55 31 north bird: radv1: Channel ipv6 connected to table radv_routes Apr 24 12:36:55 31 north bird: radv1: Initializing Apr 24 12:36:55 31 north bird: static1: Starting Apr 24 12:36:55 31 north bird: static1: State changed to up Apr 24 12:36:55 31 north bird: radv1: Starting Apr 24 12:36:55 31 north bird: radv1: State changed to up Apr 24 12:36:55 30 north bird: Started Apr 24 12:36:55 31 north bird: radv1 < interface eth2r created Apr 24 12:36:55 31 north bird: radv1 < interface ppp0 created No more logging. After some hours I get this: 541-north:bird# birdc show route for 2a02:29e1:300:e922::2 BIRD 2.0.7 ready. Network not found What does it mean? I configured static routes in the kernel. Perhaps I should only configure them in bird. 542-north:bird# ip route get 2a02:29e1:300:e922::2 2a02:29e1:300:e922::2 from :: dev eth2r proto kernel src 2a02:29e1:300:e922::1 metric 256 pref medium My ISP assigned to me 2a02:29e1:300:e900/56. I have a few addresses assigned locally, and 2a02:29e1:300:e922::1 to the lan interface (eth2r), reserving that /64 for lan hosts. A neighboring PC has 2a02:29e1:300:e922::2/64. External routing doesn't work, but this is another question (also asked on stackexchange: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/742826/ipv6-over-pppoe) There must be something wrong in the config, which I don't know how to fix. I paste it below. What did I get wrong? TIA Ale -----8<----- # This is a basic configuration file, which contains boilerplate options and # some basic examples.
