Sample patch of proposed solution/workaround.
Reasonable solution, but it doesn't address all situations like you said. For example, aliased interfaces or perhaps virt interfaces via Xen or something. I want to dig in to this deeper, but don't have time today. It's too late for any fix to make it in to 5.2, unfortunately. I would really prefer to address this upstream first, so could you file it at http://fedorahosted.org/dhcpv6/ as a bug? Don't worry, I'm not trying to pawn the bug off on someone else. I am the upstream project for dhcpv6. This bug will have to be postponed to RHEL 5.3 for a fix on that side, but I can get something in Fedora relatively quickly. Thanks. Out of curiosity, how are you using dhcpv6 at GTRI? I worked two summers at GTRI while I was a student at GT. Worked in the GCATT building with Jeff Evans. That was about 10 years ago now, I guess. Wow, time flies. (In reply to comment #2) > Reasonable solution, but it doesn't address all situations like you said.

Our lab is working with GTRI on the best way to deploy ipv6. We are currently just testing feasibility on a test lan. The goal is to come up with an ipv6 deployment plan. > I worked two summers at GTRI while I was a > student at GT. Worked in the GCATT building with Jeff Evans.
