Re: IPv6 Ideas

I was in a similar position to you not that long ago. I got my LAN all dual stack and was a happy camper. I wanted 100% IPv6 and never to see another RFC 1918 address on my network again. Unfortunately it's just not practical. My ReadyNAS doesn't talk v6. My mac doesn't appear to like v6 for the fi

What are your problems with using radvd? I have used it quite a bit on FreeBSD (6.1) without any hassle. It's even written quite nicely in my experience so working on patches for it should be quite do-able if there are features missing. He's saying that the router announcements don't contain a

IPv6 duplicate address detection

2009-05-05 Thread Bob Van Zant
I'm working on a piece of software that, among other things, allows an administrator to easily configure IPv6 interfaces on a FreeBSD host. I've run into a problem where whenever I reconfigure an interface with an IPv6 address FreeBSD marks the new address as being a duplicate. The problem is that

that would be a different thread. I guess that changes my question quite a bit. If you randomly fire off an unsolicited NA right after configuring an interface should that cause a DAD failure? -Bob On 5/6/09 4:55 PM, "JINMEI Tatuya / 神明達哉" wrote: > At Wed, 06 May 2009 15:49:45

Debugging a netgraph node

2009-06-16 Thread Bob Van Zant
I'm experimenting with netgraph to try to implement an IPv6 -> IPv4 gateway, as specified here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-xli-behave-ivi-02 This is my first time ever working with netgraph and I admit to being a bit lost. I have a netgraph node that gets wired up with an ng_ether node. My

IPv6 traffic between two hosts not flowing

I have 2 FreeBSD machines each with 3 ethernet interfaces each with an IPv6 address. Here's a table showing how the two machines are connected. To try to blame the switch or its configuration I have tried directly connecting the machines. The results were the same. 6.34948
