From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Zhiwei Yu Subject: IPv6 over VLAN Date: 16 Apr 2003 19:03:11 +0800 Sender: owner-users@ipv6.org Message-ID: <1050490991.3749.125.camel@summerpalace> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: users@ipv6.org Return-path: To: netdev@oss.sgi.com List-Id: netdev.vger.kernel.org I am using Redhat 2.4.18-5 kernel rpm with VLAN 1.5 patch. It's easy to assign global IPv6 addresses to VLAN interface, and generate local link IPv6 address automatically. But can not ping6 any IPv6 client on the same VLAN. I can capture the ipv6 neigh sol packets on the VLAN interface of destination machine, but the destination machine never reply as the way it did on the physical interface. And I am sure the VLAN setting is correct, because I can ping IPv4 address of destination machine. Here is the reply from linux vlan maintainer. >------- Additional Comments From greearb@candelatech.com 2003-04-15 >10:45 ------- >This could also be a bug in the IPv6 code, as VLAN should be agnostic to >the type of traffic running over the top of it. Please submit your report >to netdev@oss.sgi.com as well. And I think the comment is correct, VLAN is just a tagging, and I was successfully implement OSPF and RIP over VLAN. Because I am a newbies in IPv6, hope you guys can help me out. Thanks in advance -- Zhiwei Yu R & D Engineer Celestix Network Pte.
