Hi Artem, Stanislav, I agree graceful handling is needed, return false if there is no link local.
If you enabled ip6 on the link first, this wouldn’t be a problem. The link will need to be ip6 enabled if you want something to reply. /neale From: vpp-dev@lists.fd.io <vpp-dev@lists.fd.io> on behalf of Stanislav Zaikin via lists.fd.io <zstaseg=gmail....@lists.fd.io> Date: Friday, 20 August 2021 at 16:10 To: Artem Glazychev <artem.glazyc...@xored.com> Cc: vpp-dev <vpp-dev@lists.fd.io> Subject: Re: [vpp-dev] Adding new route via ipv6 link-local Hello Artem, Looks like we need (at least) to add a check for nullptr.

For example: DBGvpp# create tap tap0 DBGvpp# set int state tap0 up DBGvpp# ip route add fa::1/120 via fe80::1 tap0 make: *** [Makefile:537: run] Aborted If we swap set ... up and ip route ... - no crashes. Could you please explain me if such a situation is possible at all? In any case, I believe that vpp should not crash. Thanks. -- Best regards Stanislav Zaikin
