Running -current on my router and finally (after years) decided to move
into using ipv6.
I added "inet6 autoconf" to hostname.em0 (also has "inet autoconf") and I
get a link local address:
=================================
# ifconfig em0
em0: inet6 fe80::2132:31ff:fe0b:7ea4%em0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
inet 69.31.273.6 netmask 0xfffffc00 broadcast 69.31.273.255
=================================
And an ipv6 default route:
=================================
Internet6:
Destination Gateway
Flags Refs Use Mtu Prio Iface
default fe80::301:5bcf:fe75:2646%em0
UGS 0 22 - 8 em0
=================================
Which matches the default router proposal listed by slaacctl:
=================================
em0:
index: 1 running: yes temporary: yes
lladdr: 40:62:31:0b:7e:a4
inet6: fe80::2132:31ff:fe0b:7ea4%em0

=================================
However, there's no other ipv6 address on the interface - I suspect an
address from one of those 2001: prefix groups needs to be assigned.
Should not dhcpleased handle this?
Most of the web posts I find deal with the pre-dhcpleased days.
I'm on Comcast (Xfinity) in the US.
Thank you,
Chris
