Subject: [IPv6] How to wait for pending SLAAC
Date: Sat, 30 Jun 2012 13:10:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120630111033.GA17266@torres.zugschlus.de> (raw)

Hi,

I would like to have my system wait for the first SLAAC attempt during
bootup. To do this, I have written a script that waits until no more
IP address is found in "tentative" state.

Unfortunately, this is so fast that the script terminates before the
first address reaches "tentative" state.

Is there a way to find out whether the system is trying to do SLAAC on
any interface (for example information inside /proc or /sys), so that
one can wait for the IP address to appear, or is a fixed "sleep 5" the
only thing one can do here?

Greetings
Marc
