Hal IBTA GUIDs are EUI-64. The only issue I recall was whether Hal the polarity of the U/G bit was consistent with IEEE. This Hal was updated at IBA 1.2. It now says manufacturer assigns Hal EUI-64 with global scope set. May also assign additional Hal EUI-64 with local scope.

OK, with the patch below all the correct IPv6 groups seem to be created and used. Ping works at least... One question about IPv6 and IPoIB: currently the IPoIB driver joins the IPv4 broadcast group and then uses those parameters to join or create (as needed) the other groups, including all IPv6

I think we just need to copy our address to the child interface. This patch seems to fix it for me (already checked in). (By the way, how does IPv6 handle autoconfig for VLAN interfaces? With this change you can get duplicate autoconfig'ed addresses, although they will be in different

Nitin Based on some googling I found that for linux, since Link Nitin Local addresses are not routable, you need to provide the Nitin scope (by specifying an outgoing interface) to ssh in Nitin linux. This is very different from Solaris implementation Nitin where it still
