I discovered that the actual interfaces file is not working correctly. Tried many choices, even using pre-up sleep 10 before configuring the IPv6 manual addresses, but didn't worked. This is the example file: auto lo iface lo inet loopback allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet static mtu 9000 address 172.16.0.7 netmask 255.255.255.0 dns-nameservers 10.10.10.3 80.58.61.250 80.58.61.254 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 2001:470:1f09:495::3 2001:470:20::2 iface eth0 inet6 auto allow-hotplug eth1 iface eth1 inet static mtu 9000 address 10.10.10.7 netmask 255.255.255.0 iface eth1 inet6 static autoconf 0 accept_ra 0 address 2001:470:1f09:495::7 netmask 64 allow-hotplug eth2 iface eth2 inet static mtu 9000 address 10.10.9.7 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 10.10.9.1 iface eth2 inet6 static autoconf 0 accept_ra 0 address 2001:470:1f1d:275::7 netmask 64 gateway fe80::1 As you can see, both, eth1 and eth2 have manual/static IPv6 addresses. Each one is in a different router. Only eth2 is the default gateway (eth1 is usen only for internal communication with another LAN). However, after reboot, the ifconfig shows: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet direcciónHW 00:0c:29:64:c6:32 Direc. inet:172.16.0.7 Difus.:172.16.0.255 Másc:255.255.255.0 Dirección inet6: fe80::20c:29ff:fe64:c632/64 Alcance:Enlace ACTIVO DIFUSIÓN FUNCIONANDO MULTICAST MTU:9000 Métrica:1 Paquetes RX:17 errores:0 perdidos:0 overruns:0 frame:0 Paquetes TX:32 errores:0 perdidos:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 colisiones:0 long.colaTX:1000 Bytes RX:1500 (1.5 KB) TX bytes:3805 (3.8 KB) eth1 Link encap:Ethernet direcciónHW 00:0c:29:64:c6:3c Direc. inet:10.10.10.7 Difus.:10.10.10.255 Másc:255.255.255.0 Dirección inet6: 2001:470:1f09:495::7/64 Alcance:Global Dirección inet6: fe80::20c:29ff:fe64:c63c/64 Alcance:Enlace ACTIVO DIFUSIÓN FUNCIONANDO MULTICAST MTU:9000 Métrica:1 Paquetes RX:291 errores:0 perdidos:2 overruns:0 frame:0 Paquetes TX:144 errores:0 perdidos:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 colisiones:0 long.colaTX:1000 Bytes RX:34692 (34.6 KB) TX bytes:16360 (16.3 KB) eth2 Link encap:Ethernet direcciónHW 00:0c:29:64:c6:46 Direc. inet:10.10.9.7 Difus.:10.10.9.255 Másc:255.255.255.0 Dirección inet6: fe80::20c:29ff:fe64:c646/64 Alcance:Enlace ACTIVO DIFUSIÓN FUNCIONANDO MULTICAST MTU:9000 Métrica:1 Paquetes RX:1281 errores:0 perdidos:0 overruns:0 frame:0 Paquetes TX:755 errores:0 perdidos:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 colisiones:0 long.colaTX:1000 Bytes RX:105008 (105.0 KB) TX bytes:1554705 (1.5 MB) lo Link encap:Bucle local Direc. inet:127.0.0.1 Másc:255.0.0.0 Dirección inet6: ::1/128 Alcance:Anfitrión ACTIVO BUCLE FUNCIONANDO MTU:65536 Métrica:1 Paquetes RX:818 errores:0 perdidos:0 overruns:0 frame:0 Paquetes TX:818 errores:0 perdidos:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 colisiones:0 long.colaTX:1 Bytes RX:136866 (136.8 KB) TX bytes:136866 (136.8 KB) All what I tried fails. If I issue a manual: ip -6 addr add 2001:470:1f1d:275::7/64 dev eth2 it works. I've noticed not sure if this is relevant, that the file /etc/network/run/ifstate.eth2 is empty, and /etc/network/run/ifstate only contains the other interfaces, but not eth2: eth1=eth1 eth0=eth0 lo=lo Before the upgrade it contained all the interfaces. I've used GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0", to keep the original interface names, not sure if that's relevant, just in case.
