Expected Results:  Working, like happen, if interface contain at least one IPv4
address (127.0.0.1 would work...).

Additional info:

Current CVS version of dhcp6 has still the same problem, so upstream need to be
fixed because in IPv6-only networks it makes no sense to assign an IPv6 address
to an interface.

Comment 1 Jason Vas Dias 2005-08-22 17:08:09 UTC

Fixed with dhcpv6-0.10-14_EL4
