Description of problem: When having dhcpv6 tests in the server mode,we found that TN could not get expected Relay Reply Message (Advertise) in some scenarios. 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 v6eval-3.0.12.tar.gz TAHI package: DHCPv6_Self_Test_P2_1_0_7.tar.gz 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: TN could not get expected Relay Reply Message (Advertise) Expected results: TN should get expected Relay Reply Message (Advertise) Additional info: please refer to http://focus.brisbane.redhat.com/~zwu/dhcp_server/20071101/DHCPv6_Self_Test_P2_1_0_7_server/rfc3315/index.html (1) 12 Part B : Relay Agent/Server Message Format (2) 24 Relay Message Option Format (3) 25 Interface ID Option Format (Advanced) (4) 30 Part E : Relay-Reply message with Advertise message (w/o Interface-id Option) (5) 31 Part F : Relay-Reply message with Advertise message (w/ Interface-id Option) (Advanced) (6) 33 Part B : Reply-Reply message with Reply message (w/o Interface-id Option) (7) 34 Part C : Reply-Reply message with Reply message (w/ Interface-id Option) (8) 35 Part A : Relay-Reply message transmission (9) 36 Part B : Relay-Reply message transmission through the same Relay agents
yes, it is tested with (1) dhcpv6-1.0.4-1.el5.i386.rpm, (2) dhcpv6-client-1.0.4-1.el5.i386.rpm (3) libdhcp6client-1.0.4-1.el5.i386.rpm) For more information, pls refer to http://focus.brisbane.redhat.com/~zwu/RHEL5.1-Server-20071017.0/20071225/DHCPv6_Self_Test_P2_1_0_8_server/rfc3315/index.html
I don't know if I can get this one working for 5.2. I would prefer to postpone it to 5.3 unless someone else has a patch. I have dhcpv6-1.0.8 in the tree now, so it's worth testing with that.
Testing should proceed as note in Comment #4. Since this will not be resolved in the 5.2 beta candidate I have reset the exception, rhel-5.2.0, devel_ack and qa_ack flags to '?'. That said, this BZ will be re-evaluated as an exception for 5.2 along with any other unresolved bugs and/or feature requests as part of a IVP6DoD compliance program review (which will be coordinated by Linda Wang) after 5.2 is released to Public Beta.
zwu will be away till Fri, 15 Feb due to CNY celebration. I will try to do a run with the Test Suite with the latest tree before that.
the test case still FAIL when testing rhel5.2 with dhcpv6-1.0.10, For more detail, pls refer to http://focus.brisbane.redhat.com/~zwu/RHEL5.2-Server-20080212.0/20080220/DHCPv6_Self_Test_P2_1_0_8_server_1.0.10/rfc3315/index.html
In order to debug this problem, we need the test case for RHEL 5.2 with an exact reproducer, including output with verbose debugging messages from the DHCPV6 software. One way to do this would be to extract the commands that TAHI runs. The man pages for dhcp6s, dhcp6r, and dhcp6c all show how to generate verbose debug messages.
