I just tested this configuration and as expected the tentative status goes away after 2 seconds. Your ip output includes 'flags 08' which corresponds to IFA_F_DADFAILED (duplicate address detection failed). Which means either someone else is already using the address you selected, or else a switch is reflecting the packets sent during DAD. Ben. -- Ben Hutchings Power corrupts.
