Now that you mention it, you are most probably right.  I recall there always 
being a 169.254.0.0 in my routing table.  But by force of habit I always placed 
nozeroconf=yes in my network scripts.

Oh, I've never seen a case where you could have a "fall back" position.


This is what Windoz has always done!  M$ is the author of the zeroconf B-class 
network and how to compute your address; they even patented it and made it 
available to the workgroup.  I worked in that IETF group long ago.

The idea of zeroconf was to get local networking working automagically when 
nothing exists to provide routeable addressing. The whole point of 'zeroconf'.  
Of course this lead into discovering your devices on the network and adopting 
the Bounjour Apple work.


Well, I should have said I've not seen that in Linux.  And I don't do windows.  
:-)

If I go back far enough with my linux testing, I remember zeroconf 
working.  Or at least I think so; am going back quite a while. Probably 
before adding avahi.

Do you have access to the system to use the GUI tools of network
manager?   (I'm assuming you are using nm).



I cannot see anyplace to specify use zeroconf if no dhcp.

This is gnome3 on F20...

`/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/keyfile-plugin.conf'

I cannot see anyplace to specify use zeroconf if no dhcp.

I don't regularly use gnome.  KDE is my preferred desktop.

But I did bring up gnome in a VM and and when I go to "settings" for my wired connection I can go 
to the IPv4 settings and under "Addresses" I am given the choice of Automatic (DHCP), manual, and 
"Local Link".

For zeroconf you want to choose "local link"
I don't want a permanent change.  If no DHCP, I want zeroconf.  If DHCP 
use it.  This option does not seem to be available.

There are SOME 100Mb that work OK.  But watch for the 2 wire 100Mb with 
POE coming out probably in a year or two.  The target market is for 
sensors (in buildings) or car networks.  Vastly lowered wire costs.


No crossover needed, as it is all on 1 pair of wires!

The 1 pair PoDL is 802.3bu.  The 100Mb is still a study group.  I think 
the PAR will be ready for the November meeting.

Well, yes.  It IS a standard cable and the card(s) are doing the 
crossover operation.  I call it a crossover cable to be clear that there 
is no physical switch hardware between the systems.

Not at all my experience.  Unless you've got really old 10 and 100 mbs HW.

To turn on zeroconf you need to modify the link to use BOOTPROTO=autoip.  (Shows as 
"Local-Link" in the nm gui)


But what file is this in now?  /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts is a mess 
now with scripts for each wifi connection and I can't find any for my 
ethernet adapter.





You'll then have something along the lines of...

[egreshko@f20f ~]$ route -n

avahi-autoipd -D 

worked on one end.  Can't figure out why it did not on the other.  Fortunately 
that is my own notebook where I just:

route add -net 169.254.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 dev enp0s18f2u1 metric 99

Oow.  that works!  Will note that down for next time!

Solved - Re: Figuring out a headless server's zeroconf addr

2014-07-21 Thread Robert Moskowitz

Kind of.

No zeroconf.  For some reason.  But at least ipv6 local-scope.

Used wireshark to capture dhcp probes to get MAC address.

Converted MAC address into IPv6 local scope address.

ssh ipv6%interface

and I am in!

Now to later do this later to the actual box rather than between two 
notebooks.  But it should work the same!

I am doing a little testing, and zeroconf does not seem to be 
working.  I am seeing the link up light on my ethernet port.  I am 
seeing a local-scope v6 address, but no v4 address:


p6p1: flags=4163  mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::ea9a:8fff:fe8d:7b56  prefixlen 64  scopeid 0x20
ether e8:9a:8f:8d:7b:56  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)
RX packets 7  bytes 2130 (2.0 KiB)
RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
TX packets 46  bytes 4948 (4.8 KiB)
TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

Note that it is receiving packets from the other system.   It also has 
a local-scope ipv6 addr, but no zeroconf addr (both systems are Fedora 
20).


So how do I start zeroconf?  Of course on the other system, I can't do 
that...


So given ipv6 local-scope, how do I learn the other system's addr. 
Trying to figure out fping6.   How do I restrict it to the desired

Any other thoughts?  I can't get to the box to recable it and reboot
it (as that is the only way I can figure out for it to readdress eth0)
until this evening.

Only that:  Are you on the same network?  169.254 connections can't be
expected to be reachable outside of their own net.


Crossover cable.  Is that enough of a 'same network'?  :)

And I have considerable routing and addressing knowledge.  Besides
