RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

  RHEL5 doest support the feature of mipv6 and dont find the code related with

mipv6 in the source code of rhel5 kernel.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

  kernel-2.6.18-43.el5

Software Environment:   
  
  Testee(NUT):   
    RHEL5 
    Kernel:2.6.18-43.el5 
   
  Tester(TN):   
    FreeBSD6.2 
   
TAHI package:    
 
  ike-mipv6 (version 1.0.4)
  ct-nemo-ha (version 1.0.1)
  ct-nemo-mr (version 1.0.1) 

How reproducible:

  every time

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Configure TAHI test environment.     
  2. Run the TAHI test suite     
  3. After the test completes, check for the results
  
Actual results:

  rhel5 doesn't support the feature of nemo

Expected results:

Comment 1 Linda Wang 2007-10-30 22:16:48 UTC
see bug 331751, MIPv6 extension not part of RHEL5 TAHI certification requirement.

NEMO [Netowrk Mobility]
see http://www.cse.wustl.edu/~jain/cse574-06/ftp/network_mobility/index.html
for project description.  User space and kernel code can be found
here for 2.6.15: 

http://www.mobile-ipv6.org/software/

Perhaps there is a newer patchset somewhere for later version of the kernel.
 

Comment 3 David Miller 2007-10-30 23:43:48 UTC
For feature requests we need to keep the USAGI folks in mind as they
tend to be who implements this stuff.  This work is extremely non-trivial
in nature, so we will certainly need their help.

The mobile-ipv6 web site is an ancienct code base for basic MIPV6
support and NEMO that was integrated by the USAGI project.

The story is that the guys from Finland who did the mobile-ipv6.org stuff
worked together with USAGI to integrate as much of their collective work
as possible, considering feedback we gave to USAGI et al. during previous
netconf conferences.

All of the client side support for MIPV6 is in the upstream tree.  The
rest is still pending.  I am not aware of the status of NEMO, probably
that is even deeper down in the TODO list (NEMO is an extension to MIPV6,
so when MIPV6 is being asked for this does not imply NEMO).

It appears that the NEMO aspects of the work were picked up by the nautilus6
folks:  http://www.nautilus6.org/doc/nepl-howto/

I took a look at the kernel patch they say is needed for 2.6.23:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=331771

and all of those minor fixes are in 2.6.24-rc1.

The rest appears to be a userland NEMO daemon component that they
wrote.

The userland components are here:

ftp://ftp.linux-ipv6.org/pub/usagi/patch/mipv6/umip-0.4/daemon/tarball/mipv6-daemon-umip-0.4.tar.gz
http://www.nautilus6.org/doc/nepl-howto/umip-nepl/mipv6-daemon-umip-0.4-nepl-20071026.patch
http://www.nautilus6.org/doc/nepl-howto/umip-nepl/mipv6-daemon-umip-0.4-nepl-mcoa-20071026.patch

We should be careful what we commit to RHEL6, this is a large and
complicated piece of technology and I am unsure what the state of it is.

Comment 5 Red Hat Bugzilla 2008-07-08 01:24:02 UTC
Adding yshao to the cc list as the manager of the disabled user zwu who reported this bug

Comment 6 Bill Nottingham 2008-10-10 17:55:04 UTC
Setting to 'distribution' if the userspace component is what's left.

Comment 8 Thomas Graf 2009-10-07 11:34:16 UTC
The mipv6 userspace daemon is now part of Fedora but is still missing the NEMO bits as of now.

Comment 12 Linda Wang 2010-02-17 22:32:17 UTC
this issue has been resolved. the package should be in RHEL6 compose now.
going through package wrangler reviews. Move to ON_QA.

thank you all for your help,
-linda

Comment 16 releng-rhel@redhat.com 2010-11-11 14:37:38 UTC
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
solution does not work for you.
