Tried with latest release to no avail.

Should you want to use it, you'd have to use promisc mode for the 
affected interfaces...

Still, using VRRP is way quicker than using RA.

It might be really bad using /64 everywhere, for example have a look at
http://inconcepts.biz/~jsw/IPv6_NDP_Exhaustion.pdf

When talking about a security platform where everything is firewalled in the 
first place hopefully it will not come to any NDP actions at all (because the 
firewall killed all the inbound traffic before that), /64s might be a viable 
solution.

But at least IPv6 VRRP (which also uses RAs, at least on Juniper) can work with 
prefixes  /64 and will happily send RAs with smaller prefixes, so in theory 
you should be able to spread your default GW via RAs even with smaller prefixes. 
You will use the SLAAC capabilities, but depending on the deployment scenario it 
might be OK.

That being said, i have no idea whether one can configure RAs on Juniper gear 
(besides from VRRPv6) which uses/announces smaller prefixes than /64.

[j-nsp] SRX IPv6 VRRP

2014-08-12 Thread Laurent CARON

Hi,

I'm currently deploying SRX110/210/240.

After having configured the IPv4 part, i'm willing to configure IPv6 VRRP.

It however seems the functionnality is severely broken in many points:

[1] states:
- VRRP for IPv6 will not work if the Branch SRX platform is processing 
IPv6 in flow mode.
- If the SRX is processing IPv6 in packet mode...However, even in this 
state, the SRX will not be able to process any packets, which are 
forwarded to the VIP address.


This is quite not useful.

The 'solution' offered on [1] is to set the interface in promisc 
mode...which:

1/ is not really a good advice since all packets will hit the PFE
2/ is not possible if you are using aggregated (ae) interfaces

How did you guys solve this issue ?

Thanks

There is an ER 057607 for this issue. Another option is to use IPv6 router
advertisements instead of VRRP.

You mean to say you're not using /64 on your subnet?

 Hi,
 
 Thanks
 
 Do you have an ETA for this ?
 
 RA is a viable option only with a /64 netmask though.
