From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Date: Tue, 2 Jul 2002 13:36:42 +0200 From: "Marco d'Itri" To: linuxppc-dev@lists.linuxppc.org, debian-powerpc@lists.debian.org Subject: IPv6 ND on PPC hardware Message-ID: <20020702113642.GA2654@wonderland.linux.it> Reply-To: linuxppc-dev@lists.linuxppc.org, debian-powerpc@lists.debian.org, md@Linux.IT Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-linuxppc-dev@lists.linuxppc.org List-Id: I do not understand why ND is not working. Is my configuration wrong or I have exposed a kernel bug? When I try to ping another host on the LAN it usually works the first time, and then stops working because the other host does not reply to ND requests. Everything works again if I switch the remote interface in promiscuous mode. erode:/# ip -6 ad 1: lo: mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue inet6 ::1/128 scope host 2: eth0: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 100 inet6 3ffe:1001:210:16::3/64 scope global inet6 3ffe:8271:a040:16::3/64 scope global inet6 3ffe:8171:10:16::3/64 scope global inet6 fe80::204:acff:fe97:7130/10 scope link erode:/# ip -6 ro 3ffe:1001:210:16::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 3ffe:8171:10:16::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 3ffe:8271:a040:16::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 2000::/3 via 3ffe:1001:210:16::1 dev eth0 metric 1024 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 fe80::/10 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 ff00::/8 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 unreachable default dev lo metric -1 error -101 erode:/# uname -a Linux erode 2.4.19-rc1 #1 Sat Jun 29 15:05:41 CEST 2002 ppc unknown The other host has a similar configuration.
