After some googling, I found a couple of things that might help, so I am going to relay them here, and please correct me if anything is wrong. (There is a lot of hearsay when it comes to IPv6).
1. Dnsmasq does NOT listen to the WAN interface to obtain IPv6 prefix. 2. Instead, the LAN interface must be assigned a world-routable IPv6 address MANUALLY, e.g. through 'ip -6 address add ...'. Once assigned, it is up to dnsmasq (if configured properly) to RA that prefix. Assuming (1) and (2) are true, now comes the hard part. I need a script that would do the manual address assignment (see 2) AND change that assignment automatically when the prefix changes. I know that dnsmasq can be made to interact with scripts. What I need is, conceptually speaking, the on_ipv6_prefix_change(new_prefix) callback. How can I set that up? Many thanks! _______________________________________________ Dnsmasq-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/dnsmasq-discuss
