hi,<br>i am running Fedora Core 5<br>here is my radvd.conf<br><br>interface eth0<br>{<br> AdvReachableTime 300;<br> AdvSendAdvert on;<br> AdvIntervalOpt on;<br> MinRtrAdvInterval 3;<br> MaxRtrAdvInterval 10;<br> HomeAgentLifetime 100;
<br> HomeAgentPreference 20;<br># AdvHomeAgentInfo on;<br> prefix 2001:620:500::1/64<br> {<br> AdvOnLink on;<br> AdvAutonomous on;<br> AdvRouterAddr on;<br> };<br>};<br><br>
here is how i execute radvd-0.9.1<br><br> radvd -d 5 -m logfile -l logbook<br><br>my sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=0 is by default<br><br>i execute radvd without setting forwarding to 1 at node-1, node-1 auto-configures itself (strange!!) and does not auto-configures node-2
<br><br>ok, i terminate radvd thread set sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1, it stops autoconfiguring itself but does not autoconfigures the other node as well.<br><br>However, if i reboot the system, set sysctl -w
net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1 and then run radvd it would work properly autoconfiguring the other node<br><br>any ideas about this strange behaviour<br><br>thanks in advance<br><br>Junaid<br>
