An interface is not recognized as IPv6 capable if the interface is not in ipv6_network_interfaces and there's no ifconfig_IF_ipv6 in rc.conf(5), bummer. For IPv4 it just works because the interface is always assumed to be IPv4 capable. Ok, I used ifconfig_em0_ipv6=up and it worked. So it looks like this: The documented way to do this is to just set the link-local address in ifconfig_IF_ipv6, since an interface is required to have a link-local address. Either configure an fe80:: address explicitly or set ifconfig_em0_ipv6=inet6 auto_linklocal Alternatively, if you set ipv6_activate_all_interfaces all interfaces will be considered IPv6-capable. link-local address is assigned by default, even with ifconfig_IF_ipv6=up. root@freebsd:~ # grep -Ev '^[[:space:]]*#|^$' /etc/rc.conf ; ifconfig em0 | grep -E '^[[:space:]]*inet6' | head -2 hostname=freebsd ifconfig_em0=up ipv4_addrs_em0=192.168.168.20-24/24 defaultrouter=192.168.168.1 ipv6_network_interfaces=em0 ipv6_defaultrouter=2001:6a0:1cb:: ifconfig_em0_ipv6=up ipv6_addrs_em0=2001:6a0:1cb::1-e/128 sshd_enable=YES dumpdev=NO named_enable=YES inet6 fe80::a00:27ff:fe02:8371%em0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet6 2001:6a0:1cb::1 prefixlen 128 Of course using inet6 auto_linklocal instead of up seems a better way to do it, thank you for this tip. -- best regards, Lukasz Wasikowski I have put up the patch at github as: https://gist.github.com/4362018 This version should work with just the ipv6_addrs_IF in rc.conf(5).

It applies cleanly to HEAD version r244694 and I don't see why it wouldn't work in HEAD as well. Now, is there any interest in seeing this feature as part of future versions of FreeBSD? Could it be incorporated to HEAD and then MFC'ed to 9-STABLE if it turns out it's seen as a useful feature?

I've been waiting for this for a while, as it will greatly simplify my rc.conf on a whole bunch of jail hosts. I've spoken with bz@ about this at eurobsdcon in November 2011 and he agreed that it is a missing feature, so I suspect it is a matter of time before your patch is picked up by a committer.

I'll have to dig deeper but that's what the problem seems to be. -Kimmo The 'alias' parameter of ifconfig(8) is not the problem on the first ipv6 address, I have verified that. However, there's probably something in network.subr or /etc/rc.d/netif that I have overlooked and causes my code to be skipped if there's no ifconfig_IF_ipv6 variable defined in rc.conf(5). -Kimmo Yeah, this is problem in network.subr. An interface is not recognized as IPv6 capable if the interface is not in ipv6_network_interfaces and there's no ifconfig_IF_ipv6 in rc.conf(5), bummer. For IPv4 it just works because the interface is always assumed to be IPv4 capable. -Kimmo ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

You cannot assume that /usr/bin is available when setting up the network. It may be that /usr is mounted via NFS. You can use hexadecimal numbers (prefixed with 0x) in $((...)) expressions. In FreeBSD 9.0 or newer, sh has a printf builtin you can use; in older versions you can use hexdigit and hexprint from network.subr. -- Jilles Tjoelker ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

It is attached in this message. Again it's against a very recent 9-STABLE, I still haven't found time to see if it applies to CURRENT. It does allow you to do crazy stuff like ipv6_addrs_re0=2001:db8::::1-/64 However I didn't find anything to limit the number of aliases in the ipv4 version of the function either. Please test it :) Then a question about the PR (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=174225) I wrote, how can I attach this new patch to it?
