Title:
IPv6 Information confusing with multiple IPv6 addresses
Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Hi,
I have two routable IPv6 Subnets in use. The preference of one over
the other is done by configuring radvd on the router to set the
"preferred lifetime" to 0 on the one I currently don't want to use by
default (but can if I explicitly set the source address e.g. for
traceroute).
ip -6 addr show eth2
4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qlen 1000
inet6 2a02:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:21d:60ff:feae:a82/64 scope global deprecated
dynamic
valid_lft 10739sec preferred_lft 0sec
inet6 2001:YYYY:YYYY:YYYY:c5ae:62dc:7f23:a66c/64 scope global temporary
dynamic
valid_lft 10739sec preferred_lft 3539sec
inet6 2001:YYYY:YYYY:YYYY:21d:60ff:feae:a82/64 scope global dynamic
valid_lft 10739sec preferred_lft 3539sec
inet6 fe80::21d:60ff:feae:a82/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
The nm-applet only shows the first address in this list
(2a02:XXXX:XXXX:XXXX:21d:60ff:feae:a82), although it is marked as
deprecated.
I believe the applet should display ALL routable IP-adresse (the link
local one is not needed), and ordered by the preference of the OS. In
my example, it should be first the "global temporary dynamic", then
the "global dynamic" and then the "global deprecated dynamic" address.
